Way cool; Apollo 8 and 11 high-speed camera views of the Saturn V launch

I guess watching the last US Space Shuttle mission (STS-135) with the last Shuttle (Atlantis) made me nostalgic. I went looking for the spaceflights I remember watching as a kid, and found YouTube had more than I realized.

Seeing the video below of high-speed camera footage of two launches (Apollo 8 and Apollo 11) put to music was too awesome for words.

Had to share. Watch full-screen.
