    Engineering-wise very cool....but way too long. I had to turn it off at 2:30...

    On the contrary, I couldn't stop watching. Very well done! Did anyone see the hammer take out the lens at 0:16???? Huh???

    Damn! That was great!

    Too long? Naaaaah, kept my attention very well, especially going into other rooms and the different triggers, different shots, and a few thousand bucks worth of joby tripods. I still need to get me one of those.

    I saw that too...cringed a bit; lenses aren't cheap.

    Amazing sequence none-the-less.

    Very cool! Always thought somebody should build one completely through some small town.

    Yeah I went back to that part of the video over and over again to make sure I really saw that. Definitely cringe-worthy!

    There are ways to make that hammer-taking-out-lens part significantly less costly... ;)

    And the OP's user name is Joba. Coincidence? Or tripod discounts for the F-Chat Crew? ;)

    I wonder about that though.... towards the end, when the scenery changes
    fairly dramatically, I thought it seemed to "cut" quickly a couple of times - it's
    hard to tell for sure. But even so, even if they did it in perhaps 3 segments, it's
    still an engineering marvel.

    Can you even imagine the time this took to set up.... and imagine all the RESETS
    they had to do along the way.... oy vey!
