That's actually a slightly different video from the one in the article, which is https://www.facebook.com/1288518484/videos/465839182979896/ https://www.facebook.com/1288518484/videos/465839182979896/

  You can actually see the person filming the FB video you posted in the YouTube video!

    Now let's synthesize a Gaussian splat reproduction!

warning for the annoying screaming you're about to endure. there's not much sound for the geyser so you may as well just mute.

It saddens me that we've normalized the recording of vertical videos. There'll be so many more historical events caught on video... but it's now so much more likely that it'll be a vertical video. :(

  To be fair, the vertical recording here fits the context. Also, the fact that the recorder held the camera steady and kept the content within the frame is great by itself. A lot of times, you end up with shaky, useless footage.

    > To be fair, the vertical recording here fits the context. Briefly, near the beginning. But not for the rest of the video. If you're watching a video on a phone, it's trivial to rotate the phone 90 degrees. On a TV or computer, not so much, so you end up with a ridiculous amount of wasted screen real estate and objectively inferior image resolution.

      The primary modality through which most people experience media today is their phones, so vertical video is just fine.

        Vertical video is never fine.

        Isn't this a technological choice though? Cameras are sufficiently advanced nowadays so it's possible to take horizontal video while keeping the phone vertical, so it's just a software feature away (at the expense of horizontal resolution), or hw feature away (at the expense of a device internal gimbal)
