Little Boy’s Toy Train Takes a Trip Through Space
The crafty parents behind the RonIsNeat YouTube channel sent their 4-year-old son’s favorite toy train “Stanley” into space, armed with a weather balloon, HD camera, and old cell phone for GPS tracking.
After Stanley safely completed his journey, he was recovered in a corn field 27 miles away from the launching point. The resulting footage was compiled into a YouTube video that documents the brave train’s big journey.
The uploader, who works at Oxygen Productions digital agency, also animated Stanley’s face with After Effects and Photoshop to bring him to life how he imagined his son would see him.
Talk about the little engine that could!
