Slow is Fast - Skydiving Short Film

Slow is Fast is a skydiving short film by editor and camera flyer Johannes Bergfors.
It was released in 2013 and edited with a soundtrack to go with the feel of the skydives in the images, the video is all in slow motion apart from the segment fittingly named "100%".
Let the video load, then sit down and relax in front of a big screen and good speakers or headphones.

Hi Johannes, I just wanted to thank you for that amazing shortfilm. I was struggling after my second AFF jump and thought of giving up. Just by sheer luck I came across your video and it made realize that I need to power through that block in my head. I'm now almost 200 skydives in and loving every single second of it. I show this video to everyone who is considering to start skydiving! Thanks a lot! Cheers from Germany Robert

anyone else wanna answer this? :D

[@billybruton4509]

FUN!!

[@royalcupgame]

Short film? This is just a long footage of people skydiving and free flying with some bad music slapped on it. Don’t call this a “short film” because it is fully unworthy of the epithet.

[@johannesbergforsmedia]

You're entitled to your opinion, and with that in mind I'd like to congratulate you for being the first hater on my KZbin channel! You ARE worthy of that epithet! I invite you to share your negativity to more of my videos, kind of like Ozzyman reviews!
