THANK YOU Eddie. I was there in 2013 and see so many familiar memories. I had a different kind of burn though. My friends had convinced me that everything was simple since they had a large motor home and were part of a big ORGANIZED camp. You don't NEED to bring anything but but your clothes. However your part will be to build a BAR and stock it for our camp. Which I DID.
What I did not expect was that the husband would unwittingly teach me Radical Self Reliance.
Although they had been going the previous 3 years, he got highly agitated the 1st night about pressures being put on him by his position in the camp hierarchy that had volunteered for. 6am on the 2nd morning he woke me up and said "Get the hell out of my motorhome! I HATE Burning Man and I am leaving". WHICH THEY DID!
As it was THEIR vehicle I saw little choice. I had been three less that 36 hours and ended up marooned on the Playa. I had little more than my clothes, one of my 5 gal jug of water, a box of miscellaneous snacks, 1 of my 10 gallons of Tequila, a sleeping bag . WORSE, was I had the 8 foot bar I had built that would have to get OFF the Playa WITH me. I was depressed.
HOWEVER The Playa provides and our camp full of mostly strangers to me took me in and the burn worked out.. They returned a day later with tearful apologies and I with .heightened sense of awareness.
That's an experience that I'm sure you'll never forget. I've heard handfuls of stories of people just showing up with little more than the clothes on their back and throwing themselves into the great unknown. You are right, the playa provides. Sometimes that's a generous drink, an old dusty couch to crash on or a freshly minted grilled cheese sandwich. Sometimes it's a swift kick in the ass! Whatever it is, you probably deserved it. Never forget, bianca loves you.
Fabulous! Thanks for taking me back. Also WOW @eddie - so many views!
Not sure why, but I feel so relaxed and content after watching this. Thank you, Mr. Codel, for sharing this beautiful footage.
You're quite welcome! Just call me the zen delivery service.
Steven Rivera SATAN IS GOOD ABOUT THAT👹
I love Burning Man. Everyone should make a point to go at least once in their lives. It is an experience you will never forget.
So why does this have 1000 dislikes? Amazing vid

I wish I'd spent more time checking out the art pieces! Thanks for making this video!
I was there. Had an amazing time. Thank you for work. Brilliant P.O.V.
Thanks very much for posting this. I've heard so much about BM over the years and many friends have attended, it was really great to get a bird's eye view. There should be more things like this, and less war and fighting.
HATERS GONNA HATE. Too bad, it's beautiful to see. THANKS AGAIN!!
Thank you for this video! It has inspired me to make it to this event at some point in the next couple years. It looks mesmerizing
this looks like a post-apocalyptic movie. great work!
thank you this was amazing .. such great memories this year ..
Thank you for capturing one of my favorite afternoons on the playa! My friends and I appear on the screen enjoying time in front of the Man. This moved me- see you next year!
Love this view of the lady sculpture. Thank you!
Wow man! Wonderful vid! Thanks for sharing. I always wanted to have a birds eye view, just chillin in real time. Awesome!
Best drone-camera work I've seen this year!
Epic Video! I have always wanted to go and honestly your vid has me planning for 2014. I am going to go solo so I can experience life on the playa to its fullest. Thank you ekai!!
Neat way to capture it thanks for taking the time and heart!
Beautifully done. Love the shots, the smooth, floating travel, the closeups and the mesmerizing music.
LOVE this! Thank you. Cant wait to get back home.
This is gorgeous Eddie. I was homesick this year, and this put me right there for a few minutes. A gift!

Home! Thank you for such a lovely video.
Thank YOU Eddie for sharing this....so if we can't be there physically we can 'hover in spirit' and enJOY!
This is incredible! Love it! Am gonna have to get there someday.
I don't think I've seen anything more amazing! I hope that one day I can have the experience of seeing this!
FUCK I can't even begin to comprehend how huge this place is.
Would love to experience it some day.
Do it! You still have 24 hours before the gate opens.
I saw that drone there! Awesome footage. Gives a good sense of how massive the place is.
Well done, Eddie. Really cool! I remember meeting you at CES 2007. Fun to see what you are up to now. - Michelle Osorio
I loved this. It was so awesome. Think of how much work went into all those. I would love to go and experience this in person.
Thank you so much for giving such a beautiful taste of the event from a vantage point I've never seen before. Can't believe I made it to Antarctica before BM. Brilliant shoot!
It's cool to see it during the day. Thanks for posting!
The memories this brings!! I have quite a few tales from my experience. Love it!! Thanks for sharing :)
Great video wish it was longer! thanks for sharing.
lovey video, thanks for making it mate!
Just seeing this now. Verrrry cool captures, Eddie. 8-D
I loved this video! Amazing job!
Thanks for that cool perspective. I dig the music too.
Ray, you look great in your wedding dress (17 seconds in, bottom right corner.) Another star is born!
this beautiful video captures the mood perfectly (dawn) and is what I'm showing people since no photos seem to capture the spirit of this amazing event. . .
Cool video. Really like the vibe behind it. Neat music too, by coincidence I just heard of Fingers in the Noise yesterday.
Great video and love the soundtrack!
Thank you! Awesome video, thanks for sharing it!
I went this yr. with my 36 yr. old son. I am 60. We are both professional business owners. The people on here who have posted derogatory remarks about BM are jealous, cant afford tickets, and live in a NUT shell. Every man woman and child should see this amazing art and here the music. People from all over the world come to see BM.
Love this, I even found me and my bikes during the Unicorn Rampage at the 35 second mark.
all i can say is i went about 8/9 yrs. ago.. im not into any "scene" per se.. not a hippie..wasn't looking to get laid..im into sound and vision. we stayed wed. till sun... and i saw the most unbelievable stuff imaginable. some of the most talented people on the planet making epic structures/things that go boom/things that lightup ect.ect. for one purpose only.. to blow your mind..and they succeeded w me. ill never forget it. amazing.
Very cool. Love the video and great soundtrack.
My son went to BM with Nick DeWolf many years and said this was the best experience he had and one he will treasure the rest of his life. RIP Nick!

Thanks for posting this!
Very Cool ! Nice to see a birds eye view of things !!
And , liked the music ! ;)
Simply amazing, that you found a day with no wind. I'm trying to remember no wind, but it fails me...lolol. Good footage, and excellent editing job. This brings back good memories, but from totally a different angle. A quick cruise over some of the villages would make a good second production. Thanks for this. Looking forward to your 2014 sequel.
Most mornings weren't windy, which is the best time to fly. It does mean being awake at like 6 or 7am. :)
That was nice! I remember "The Burning Man" during the late 1990s. The cost to get in was $100 and bathrooms were scarce then but it looks like it has come a long way. Great to see that it is still around!!!
Highly captivating. Thanks for sharing.
soooo badass. i will go to one of these before i die. My Father has told me that its a one of a life time experience.
That was a lot of fun! I was the one on the bike. See ya next year!!!
My cousin is very into Burning Man, he always used to tell me stories. Never really saw what it actually looked like until this. Very cool.
Beautiful, thank you!
We were camp Partytime at 2006 and 2007. In 07 we gave away almost 5k frozen margaritas. Good times. I met my wife there at 06. Miss you BRC!
I was wondering why so many people were riding bikes,but now I can see how vast the site is.It looks amazing and maybe one for the bucket list
I would actually stay completely sober during the entire event just to soak up and remember as much moments and experiences as possible
Could be... I've seen a lot of sort of "superstitious" arguments about what causes the jello effect (electromagnetic interference, blade wobble, prop balance, fast harmonic directional corrections, motors not spinning perfectly proportionally, frame rate)...
At any rate, beautiful work, great subject... I *love* this perspective on the Man, and your editing. Hope to see more!
wow o_o it sounds like something. I honestly like all the sand in the environment. Looks so pretty :) Thanks for the response.
I wanna go so bad since I love art happiness and word peace love this is beautiful
That is awesome. Now I both want to buy a drone *and* go to Burning Man.
The turning headed coyote is very touching, it's like a tribute to wilderness !
I wish I could go to the Burning man !
I loved that piece. You should! You've got 3 more days.
*****
cool !
It must be a outstanding experience !
Love how this video shows me what wonderful places the world has to visit and also that I have no life... 0.o
Excellent edit... perfect sound!
My new two wishes: Have a drone / Burning Man 2014
:P
So great! Nice work!
I want to go!!!!
Hi Herb. Burning Man is not for everyone my friend, but you are very correct that it is an alternative, artistic, new-age festival like none other.
So live and let live, OK, and enjoy the peace, simple wonders and freedoms of your life experiences and society you live.
No need to hate, be divisive and show your extremist side.
There is too much abrasive polarity and 'us vs them' judgement of others in the world...
Have a good one.
There were evidently 124 registered drones at BM this year ranging in size from 2 to 10 feet in diameter...according to the people offering skydivers and passenger rides at 5:00 and I-ish...10 times more than last year and a bit of a danger for the skydivers, but oh, what a wonderful view...brought back great memories.
Quite nice ! Unreal resolution. . .A+
Gorgeous video Eddie.
I am amazed that something as harmless as desert landscapes at burning man brings out the UA-cam trolls. But I guess I shouldn't be.
In fact, there are police all throughout the event, and they overwhelmingly cooperate with the festival goers. In fact, Burning Man is actually highly sought out for many law enforcement personnel who travel from all over the country specifically to oversee the event. Actually, this year on thursday multiple dozens of police vehicles all held a procession to the temple to honor an officer who passed away this year, who loved working, as well as attending, the burn.
Thanks :) Man it sounds like LA has everything.
Great work. Thank you.
I've been convinced. I'm going next year for my quarter of a century birthday!
Great vid! thanks for posting
Better than some other drone footage...more variety, thanks!
Enjoyed this video, thumbs up. Cheers from Sint Maarten
Capt Eric Bergeron CHEERS FOR SATAN 👺. U. Bettcha
awesome video cant wait to be there!!
Eddie - fantastic work, thank you for making this happen!! Was wondering how the footage would look after seeing the drone flying all over the Black Rock City!
Great shot of Playa!!
VERY kewl! I was on the trailer at the very end of the video but had just been dropped off at the Man. Dang!
It's nice to see so many accepting, non opinionated people commenting on this because obviously this video was put up to see what people thought of Burning Man.
This is amazing!
Great Video Good Flight Bro !!!
Beautiful!
