Well, almost. They got it almost all the way into space - which is pretty impressive for 2 seventeen year old Canadian science maniacs. I know - it's ok - i feel inadequate too.

Here's the story behind the video:

Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad, both 17, launched a balloon 80,000 feet above the Earth with a Lego passenger and four cameras to document the trip. Ho said their next project was to graduate high school. The pair only recently sent off university applications — Ho wants to study commerce at Queen’s University or the University of British Columbia, and Muhammad wants to study engineering at the University of Toronto or Centennial College.
