Video of William's successful egg drop from school roof

This morning with literally five minutes before William had to get to school, we realized that today was Tuesday and not Monday (due to Thanksgiving holiday yesterday) and thus the egg drop competition was due immediately. We rushed around and pulled together the plan we'd been discussing for a parachute and he dashed to class a few minutes late. At noon today they threw them all off the roof. His, probably due to the flamboyant flag parachute, was one of the three finale drops (along with the pumpkin and the large stuffed tiger). I'd been shooting every possible drop, waiting for his, for a half hour so the battery died in the final second. Got most of it though.
