project 2

250 water rockets

On the 19th of June we've set the world record of launching most water rockets simultaneously!
To accomplish this, we've used a gigantic amount of 250 water rockets which all were launched manually out of the hands of students from the Delft University of Technology, the Grotius College and of course Boyan and Gotta Launch Crew.

The record category 'most water rockets launched simultaneously' was brand new and we had to launch a minimum of 200 water rockets succesfully, within 5 seconds, in order to officially set the world record.
To make it entirely official, public notary Ms Loof, and alderman Mr Rensen were witnesses for the record event.

facts

Eventually, 213 water rockets were launched simultaneously, a new world record!

And beside the huge amount of press, the record was filmed by Jip from Wopij.com for a cool video!
Bestide normal video footage, thanks to Wentzel Engineering it even has been recorded with a high speed camera!
