Gadget Addict I'd say your comment would be a bit narrow minded... Don't get me wrong, I clicked the video in the interest of seeing these perverted pieces of space junk fall out of the sky, but the title of the video isn't wrong at all to the relation of the content. He hunts, one definition being "pursues, searches" satellites, but I do get what you mean. Then again, all media is misleading in one way or another.
***** Why's it shit? Because it isn't what you're used to? Its not the brain washing shit they feed to the public? They cover grounds no other journalist even fucking dares to think of. The only thing I know is fake about them, is that there is no way they can fit into an airplane with balls as big as theirs. Go back to watching Fox News.
=]] I live in Europe, we do not have Fox News or any kind of shit american television. Vice is just as much cancer as any media outlet, misleading titles and shit news. That's not real journalism, they are not real journalists. Period
@@TenzaBurabura Yeah, I’ll take the first cab heading out of the solar system. Seriously have you ever spent any period of time in the desert country where the stars take over the night sky? The blanket of light pollution is changing cultures in a bad way. It’s cutting people off from the entire visible universe. That messes with the human psyche more than most people can imagine. People no longer see the wonders of the universe, and learn all that it teaches. Then you get whole cultures who think the night sky is just a few “lights” and that we live on a flat earth. It’s a bad thing.
We have Nyepi once a year on this island (Bali). You're not allowed off your property (you're detained and probably in trouble if caught on the streets) so there's no cars on the roads/street lights, people are encouraged to only use lights at night that are not visible from outside. For this time the sky is insaaaaaaaaane, lack of light pollution - totally get what you mean :)
Wafflecookie Especially when he talks about getting "blue screens and having the whole system crash". Lol. That's not something that frequently happens with every computer.
Well. That kind of sucked. Why didn't your editor just spring for another night and you could go and get the shots that you wanted to. I think that kind of effort would have produced an award winning expose of "Satellites are Spying on Us", and here is the proof. Instead you give us what: A Frenchman in hisa backyard lamenting cloud cover. Cool.
I have watched many many super awesome vice documentaries but for some simple reason this is one of my favorites!! Maybe because photography is my hobby and passion and I can relate to the ending.he seems like an awesome person.i bet it'll be awesome to hang around him
there is actually no video i don't like on vice channel. Congratulations! I don't know a better doccumentaries channel on youtube so far, Good job and thank you!
Showing my age I think . I remember correctly running outside to watch early versions pass over by listening to short wave stations reporting the next pass
Dark Sky is a must have for both viewing and telephotography, other your eyes never get dark-adapted if there is too much ground light. I used to haul my telescope 18 miles south and set up on a high hill overlooking a river valley. Winter is best because nights are longer and skies are clearer
Eddie Huang isn't egocentric like you think. He's actually really humble. His memoir is coming out on the 29th of January so I think you should read it to get a better understanding of where Mr. Huang is coming from.
In Vice's defense it's called "The man who hunts spy satellites" implying that it is about the man, not the actual hunting. Now if they titled it "A man hunting spy satellites," that would be weird.
Hybridious lol its about as simple as it gets. I could produce that beat in under 5 minutes, probably less. Kick snare kick snare under an arp and a shitty buzz bass..yay.
If you want to find unknown satellites, get one of those sat tracking apps on your phone. Watch the sky and wait for objects to come overhead. Anything that comes over that isn't showing on the sat tracking app is likely to be a spy sat or unknown debris.
you know, I bet it happens more often than you might think. I mean not literally the blue screen (as they might not even run Windows), but software/OS crashing, for sure. but most of the time rebooting probably fixes it
Such a great short story, this is want I want to see. Syria videos are cool and all. But this is so interesting. Just one man, passionate about what he does, ready to give information about something so cool.
I love watching things fly by in space with my astronomy binoculars. I can set up in 2 minutes. I need a little led head lamp but i want one with a red lens or light because its easy on the pupils and bugs ignore it. I was wanting to get video of satellites and objects with my 28x but I need something smaller and able to swing with my 15 lb binos.
A very unique and rewarding experience, (about half the time..?) I envy you and your dedication. And your explanation..? It reminded me of President John F. Kennedy when he said that, "We are going to the Moon, not because it is easy, but because it is hard." (I was very much alive and attentive, then) Thanks for provoking the memory! BTW, the love you have for this pursuit is quite evident. I felt it with you!
Waited for the spy satellite stuff, never came. Misleading title.

Distinct City This is Vice, a B media organization that is utter shit, it's like a big fucking toilet.

"not real journalism"
Fucking wow, you know what I say to that bullshit?!

“Light pollution is a type of prison.” Indeed.

Light pollution is not a prison, any more than the middle of the ocean is solitary confinement. If it's not suited to your needs, leave.

Those photos of Mir, Shuttle, ISS etc against the sun are just amazing!
I'm very impressed by this man. He is so passionate and optimistic person at all.
That was it? They didn't stay another day to see if the weather would be better?
lol right?
Unless it was holding a geosynchronous orbit over his house, the satellite would not be there to view the next day.
bigb00m
Makes sense, but I'm sure he could have showed them something interesting.
Little Wing 😂😂😂
_"Light pollution is a kind of prison."_ Without a doubt!
In pitch darkness, have your kids see the Milky Way at least once; mandatory viewing.
b1aflatoxin I know I hate light pollution.
So true, but still, light is a safety feature in citys or suburbs too. Can't have it all :)

So its only the first 20 seconds that involves anything regarding spy satellites?
"Who are the ad wizards whoa came up with that one?"
An acceptable use of Clickbait. There are very few.
he seems like a really nice person, so gentle and positive
His first mistake was buying a hp pavilion
no shush it all about unrespect a hp product
John Luke Horan *a
lmfao
Wafflecookie Especially when he talks about getting "blue screens and having the whole system crash".
Lol. That's not something that frequently happens with every computer.
was talking about its bad rumor of being the official worst laptop on earth in record of overheating
very well done! Educational to say the very least

3 years late - but I think it would be easy to figure out that it's a satellite and it won't be above his city that exact time at night the next day.
Lol.
JohnFive Eagles Szuros 😂
jar jar binks
*Puts his 6" telephotography reflector away*.
Damn that 14" cass is WOW!!!!
***** IKR. Love cassies :D
I hate the accent tho
This guy is exceptional and his imagery is jaw dropping.
I hope this inspires a whole new generation of Astro Photographers. Kewl vid
I have watched many many super awesome vice documentaries but for some simple reason this is one of my favorites!! Maybe because photography is my hobby and passion and I can relate to the ending.he seems like an awesome person.i bet it'll be awesome to hang around him
Man takes picture of satellite
Man: I aM sPYinG on sPIes
Your comment would make sense if this video was titled: "The Man Who's Hunting Spy Satellites"
Very interesting! He seems very happy with his hobby. Im glad for him.
10:13 - I love this quote... "If I don't want to take a risk, I'd just stay at home on my sofa.."
there is actually no video i don't like on vice channel. Congratulations! I don't know a better doccumentaries channel on youtube so far, Good job and thank you!
Astronomer was great, Vice needs to try again for a clear night.
Me too !
Do you want build a mega telescop-sat with me ?
I call Soyouz for rocket, and Kourou for launching !
Lmao
At first I thought this guy guns down satellites, but then realized that I'm watching vice.
this was really good. this guy seems so nice
What would be cool is if a satellite takes a picture of this guy as he takes a picture of the satellite.
They always put such great music in these
I was expecting a guy with a rocket launcher ready looking through a telescope for spy satellites.
"spy satellites" thumbnail is a picture of the international space station,
the best vice videos are those without narration. the story tells itself.
Showing my age I think . I remember correctly running outside to watch early versions pass over by listening to short wave stations reporting the next pass
"Like a joystick in a video game" looks more like a transmitter for a radio controlled airplane...
haha!
Allow me to re-quote:
"I once took a picture of Uranus, but all I saw was an asshole"
;)
That was the coolest photo of a Mcdonnell Douglas MD-11 I've ever seen!
This Frenchman just gave me some kind advice I needed. Great video
I wouldn't be surprised since the publishing of this video that the clouds above his house are permanently obscuring his view
I was waiting for the moment he pulls out the laser gun to shoot down the spy satellites
Thanks for the awesome doc vice, that guy's drive is an example. He sincerely made my day. Passionate people make for great documentaries!
he seems nice and all but he uses internet explorer :/
that was a beautiful documentary. it's so nice to see someone who has such a strong passion for something.
This was awesome, but the way he said "focus" at 7:41 cracked me up.
Dark Sky is a must have for both viewing and telephotography, other your eyes never get dark-adapted if there is too much ground light. I used to haul my telescope 18 miles south and set up on a high hill overlooking a river valley. Winter is best because nights are longer and skies are clearer
The music (especially the 1 playing towards the middle of the vid) sounds like AIR, melikes :-3
Eddie Huang isn't egocentric like you think. He's actually really humble. His memoir is coming out on the 29th of January so I think you should read it to get a better understanding of where Mr. Huang is coming from.
This is great. This guy is intelligent and interested in what he's doing and it shows clearly. No nonsense, just doing what he wants to.
That telescope setup is rad.
He's an interesting person. Just really into his hobby which happens to be his career
Your name scares me!
Finally vice uploads something thats decently intersting.
having a free time hobby like this wud b so awesome
I thought it was going to be some guy taking crappy pictures of flying plastic bags, but I think this is pretty darn cool.
Great story about a passion Thierry puts into his hobby.
Motherboard: "Lets make a video about satellites!"
Vice: "Not hipster enough."
Motherboard: "What if we do it in France?"
Vice: 'PERFECT!"
Dude deserves another epi
France: they want to do something that has never been done before.
would love to hear flat earth explanation of all this..
Flat Earther explanation - "France is fake"
@@d.samuels6673 Australia isn't real
Its a UA-cam video its faked.
In Vice's defense it's called "The man who hunts spy satellites" implying that it is about the man, not the actual hunting. Now if they titled it "A man hunting spy satellites," that would be weird.
What kind of music do they play 9:06, because it sound awesome!!
I also want to know!
Naden - Suspiro
:)
Hybridious lol its about as simple as it gets. I could produce that beat in under 5 minutes, probably less. Kick snare kick snare under an arp and a shitty buzz bass..yay.
Danielle Scribbins then why didn’t you?
got'errrrrrrr
A man who looks at Satellites which looks at people who look like Satellites.
IF this guy ever comes on interpol's most wanted list and goes to exile, He'd be the real pain in the ass to find.
This video was rather interesting. The guy's philosophy is nothing short of wonderful.
he should hunt the black knight satellite
If there was such a thing
there ~4
THANK YOU !!!
I wanted a telescope when i was 9, never got one because i was too poor :(
Gally G
Now u r rich, buy it for me
i think he is just waiting a UFO to appear and be the first human to photograph a ufo
its always enlightening to see someone's passion on their hobby :D
omfg that telescope he has is worth as much as a fancy mid sized sedan
If you want to find unknown satellites, get one of those sat tracking apps on your phone. Watch the sky and wait for objects to come overhead. Anything that comes over that isn't showing on the sat tracking app is likely to be a spy sat or unknown debris.
"you know, some activity were there is no risk, and were you win every time, its too easy."
Thise are some amazing pics its not so easy finding let alone travking and photographing satellites that are miles and miles away from earth
all of this super hi-tech satellite technology and then at 9:07 he has a ps3 controller on the table hahaha
I am so glad to know about this guy. Kudos to him and best of luck with his efforts.
I like how he says the word "satellites."
you know, I bet it happens more often than you might think. I mean not literally the blue screen (as they might not even run Windows), but software/OS crashing, for sure. but most of the time rebooting probably fixes it
Always support people's passions! It make them happy and leads to great things!
Turn the volume up, plz.
finally some quality content at vice :P
That white head lamp would totally destroy his night vision, he should be using a red filter.
UA-cam is the best news channel in the world!
Such a great short story, this is want I want to see. Syria videos are cool and all. But this is so interesting. Just one man, passionate about what he does, ready to give information about something so cool.
Title is misleading. it's about a troll hunter.
This was a great video, it was just about something other than the title.
what a brilliant individual..
the music at 5.29 is amazing. who is it by?
I NEEEEEED to know the song at 9:00. Someone, please?!
In the credits it mentions that the music is provided by "Jingle Punks"... That's all I've got for you. Let me know if you find it.
Trust me, I've gone through their songs. I've attempted to ID the song with 3 different apps, nothing.
the video is called "The MAN who hunts spy satellites" it's about Thierry Legault not the actual satellites.
Where did you get such amazing video of space like at 4:36?
nailed the music on this one keep it up vice
Im french and dear god wtf is this accent... it's the thickest stereotypical french accent ive ever heard. I don't think even i could do this badly xD
One of the most demanding photography specialties...
I love watching things fly by in space with my astronomy binoculars. I can set up in 2 minutes.

I was wanting to get video of satellites and objects with my 28x but I need something smaller and able to swing with my 15 lb binos.
Yeah. Any amateur w a $200 telescope can see satellites flying by every night
A very unique and rewarding experience, (about half the time..?) I envy you and your dedication. And your explanation..? It reminded me of President John F. Kennedy when he said that, "We are going to the Moon, not because it is easy, but because it is hard." (I was very much alive and attentive, then) Thanks for provoking the memory!

stories like these is why vice is getting a show on hbo
With a homemade antenna and a laptop with some free software you can find on hobby websites you can tap into satellite broadcasts
Excellent video and, as Barbie said, brilliant individual.
His photos are so great !
Title should read: "A whiny guy complained about cloud in the sky". Well duh, clouds reside in the sky lol
No doubt this is a very respectable hobby.
Gotta love this guy
a good transition after many videos watched today. this guy defiantly didnt hustle to get a telescope.
This is George Rush St. Pierre's dad lol
