Video duration: 53 seconds

The last ten seconds of countdown followed by the 41 second flight, ending with impact in the Pacific. Note the thermal blanket flapping about 30-33 seconds into the video; it was supposed to come off at launch. Also, about 36 seconds in you can see a jet of flame shooting out of the side of the rocket just before it goes out of control

Video duration: 88 seconds

A series of still shots of the launch os the space shuttle Atlantis on mission STS 117. Taken from Eastern Orlando, about 30 miles from the launch site. The images are shown for two seconds each, but that's probably a little fast, as I don't think my camera was taking pictures every two seconds.
