43,000 Feet || Short Film

Director Campbell Hooper has released an engrossing short film which imagines what it's like to fall from 43,000 feet and what you should think about during the fall, including how to potentially survive. The nine-minute film was funded by The New Zealand Film Commission and prompts the viewer to question their own life and the importance of what they're doing day-to-day. "My name is John Wilkins, I'm a statistician," begins the film. "And I have a few things to say to those that will one day find themselves in the position of trying to survive falling from a great height." Watch the film below, it's definitely worth nine minutes of your precious time.
