How Google Pulled Off Their Live Video Skydiving With Glasses Demo

google skydiveGoogle won the Internet by pulling off a truly impressive Google Glass skydiving stunt, twice, during their I/O event. Skydivers in wingsuits 4,000 feet above San Francisco delivered the high tech glasses to the Moscone stage in just four minutes, with help of 25 cameras, a zeppelin and a helicopter, stunt bikers and someone repelling down the side of the convention center. The whole thing was shown on live video in a Google Hangout from the skydivers' and bikers' glasses to the surprise of developers in the audience and those watching on YouTube. This was Google's winning answer to Steve Jobs' "One More Thing" and for the moment, it made Apple's ground-based surprises seem less dramatic.
