Just stumbled across this video and had to share. He's got some seriously mad drone flying skills!

Yes the flying is real and it is a continuous uncut shot, but it took ten tries to get everything right and all the people have been told what to do, they're not real customers just hanging out.

Filmed after hours at Bryant-Lake Bowl, which is a really cool spot even if there aren't drones making fly-bys. Good food (particularly for a bowling alley), a little theater for art-type films, just a fun vibe.

I need to learn to fly a drone so I can up my bowling score.

I tried the link and was advised that it was private and unavailable

Here's another article about it. I'm not surprised how many takes it took, or that it was all choreographed. Having a drone buzzing around while trying to bowl would seem incredibly distracting.

Drones are remarkable developments. A few years ago, I was talking to a young man in the local park who was flying one. He was very aware of its potential and its abuse. He told me of some sad activities invading neighbourhood backyards, swooping on people and the legislation that was needed around the world to manage how it is used. I have not heard much more on this. Some of the scenes filmed in mountains, oceans, wildlife movement, toxic spills have been very informative.
