OK Go Delivers Ground Breaking Music Video

Ok Go are well known for their groundbreaking music videos. Just when it seems like they can't top themselves, they do. Their new video literally defies gravity.

The entire video was shot thousands of feet above the ground aboard a Russian Airliner. S7 Airlines teamed with the band to bring people this truly unique video. To achieve weightlessness, a parabolic flight was necessary. These are the same flights used to train astronauts, conduct experiments and are sometimes used in movie shoots.

To achieve near zero gravity, the plane rapidly ascends which is followed by a period of rapid decent. During the climb, everyone is subjected to hyper-gravity, which makes a person feel very heavy. However, when the plane reaches it's peak and begins to descend, a period of almost 30 seconds of micorgravity occurs. This is as close as you'll get to no gravity without leaving the atmosphere.

Should you want to take a flight and experience near zero gravity for yourself, the Zero Gravity Corporation with locations in Florida, Nevada and California will take you up in a 727 for just $5,000.
