TimeFest 2011: The Most Intense Timelapse Ever (VIDEO)

Nature just got a little bit more extreme.

We've seen our share of incredible time-lapses, but this one certainly takes the cake in terms of party music. With a soundtrack like this, this is probably the only nature video we might dance to.

However, this might just be the tip of the iceberg.

As the video's description states, this is just a quick edit of a few time-lapses taken at what the group calls TimeFest 2011. The videos were taken by Vince Laforet, Carson Garner, Tom Lowe, Tom Guilmette, Dr Kanab and Shawn Reeder during the event and compiled by Eric Kessler to create "Time Escape."

If you like the video below, be sure to check out this stunning Milky Way time-lapse.

The neatest part was the trails the cigarettes made while they were taking their break. The other parts I swear I have seen somewhere else before.

Amazing. The video already appears to have time-traveled into the past.

It's a pity we can't rate articles in terms of delivering. This one was rubbish. Overly edited, self indulgent, and probably done by the brother in law of someone...

Wow. All that effort to create a beautiful piece of film and then end with titles in Times New Roman. It's like driving the last lap of the Indy 500 in a Yugo.

Would you have preferred Comic Sans? Perhaps Wingdings?

It's pretty cool, but how do you recover the investment?

Wha? That is a completely CGI generated sequence. Doesn't compare to the time lapse capture of the real night sky. Apples and oranges really. I don't think many fully appreciate how difficult this time lapse shot is to capture.

Nonsense. A time lapse is all a figment of our imagination anyways.

Those looked like proton packs in some of the scenes.
