Hey. Has it been uploaded anywhere yet?

Jason, if you'd like any help in regards to getting it uploaded or hosted, I'm happy to help. If it's way too huge for conventional online hosting, I can get my brother (who owns a computer/local internet store) to host it for us.

Free hosting on The Pirate Bay, and easy to distribute.

Pirate Bay doesn't "host" anything though. It'd be torrented. If enough people downloaded/seeded it may work, but with huge files, a single original source, and a small community downloading it, it would be way easier to have it hosted somewhere instead of torrenting it.

I hope to have it all uploaded by this weekend. More details here in this thread or in the final BD 2014 email.

When are you guys uploading last years video?

Files are uploading now. Finding a place to host it has been a problem and we're exploring alternatives. Either way, I guess I have 51 more weeks to do this in order to beat last year's video delivery.

Perhaps someone has some extra storage space they can loan me for a month? Need 75GB total and I can only host about 30GB before my "unlimited storage" hosting company complains. I can upload direct to your site if given FTP credentials.

I'm uploading BD14 and BD13 now.

+1 torrent is the way to go

I agree, pirate bay is the best way to go.

I have a seedbox and could make it available as a torrent. 10gbps pipe. If you want I could give you the ftp credentials. It would be seeded 24/7

Ill Gladly seed it as well. At least until Tech cuts off my internet. But technically since the intent is to distribute it for free, I am not violating any laws and they can't say otherwise, right?

Email me direct at jbell {(AT)} base428 {(DOT)} com if you can assist with hosting these files.

I have most BD14 files on my server now ready for someone to pull them off and upload elsewhere, or for me to upload to your FTP site. I'd like these files to only go out to registered jumpers and not the entire world.

Are the videos in sections? like 9:00-9:30, 9:30-10:00, ext?
It would be great to just have a direct download link to the individual sections, but torrents work too.

Videos are in anywhere from 1-10 minute increments. Just click on your jump time to download or watch. We tried combining them into 30 minute chunks, but Mac users were seeing errors. I think we figured out a solution and hope to have everything up within 24 hours. Another jumper was able to donate some web space and we're uploading now.

Remember, BD14 videos are free. If you want something fancy done with the videos, you'll have to do it yourself. Exit point footage is in HD. LZ footage is only SD due to the cameraman placing the camera in the wrong mode. Also, exit point cameraman got hit by a jumper and suffered an ankle sprain, so he was a bit hesitant to get close to the action later in the day.

Bridge Day 2014 raw video is here:

The only thing missing is exit video from 12PM-3PM, which should be uploaded shortly. The filename is the start time of each video (ie. 1305 = 1:05PM). I suggest you right click on your jump time and select "save link as" if using Windows to download the file to your hard drive.

Videos can be used for personal use only. No commercial use is authorized. Do not give or sell our video away to production companies, TV shows, or other. Feel free to incorporate videos into your own projects, Facebook, etc.

DO NOT email me with any video questions. I will not combine videos, send them to you via email, or help you download them. Also, do not complain about the videos since we're providing these to you for free.

Say thanks to staffers Victoria Ey and Andrew Petro for traveling to Bridge Day 2014 to film the event. If you enjoy the videos, tell them thanks or offer them a small donation. Also, thanks to Zebu and his brother Chris for hosting the files. Good luck and enjoy.

Bridge Day 2013 video will also be uploaded shortly to the following URL:

Has anyone successfully downloaded video? I'm not incredibly computer savvy...so it's likely user error on my behalf.

Yes.

Kip, get a download manager that can queue, pause, and resume downloads. Your browser is probably timing out.
