Adrenaline Rush: The Science of Risk

"Adrenaline Rush" was a terrific look at the modern technology we use to take flight in the world of growing knowledge. Great cinematography and camera

work show the audience what it is like to fly like an eagle on the wings of a sunrise. The film follows two "risk takers" in their attempt to create a parachute drawn by Leonardo Da Vinci in the 1500's in order to further understand what

makes humans fly at best. Anecdotes and stories of modern science are added

to this through out the film, giving the viewer, be it adult of kid, a great deal to comprehend in the short forty-five minutes that they are viewing. I particularly liked the scenes involving the "new" kind of parachute that allows divers to fall and float more like a bird than just fall out the sky regularly. All the people on the crew clearly knew what they were doing, and this film proves so by many haps. Great musical cues animate the sky as these experienced ski divers free fall and play air games with a tennis ball. This is a good one-the kind that makes you want to go and take the risk! 10/10
