Pic Ky handed me this tape and said "You'll love this one" and man was he right! Not only do I like watching big rockets, I will admit to my evil side of watching things goes wrong sometimes too. There is usually more to be learned by a failure than a success. This video also demonstrates that failures still happen sometimes to even the best people in the hobby.
The video is chock full of big rockets and interviews including Rikki Rocket's gigantic Jurassic Kik made from drum cases. The video is plenty long and has a good number of flights. Most of the rockets in this video are using motors ranging from M up through P. That means this video really lives up to it's name. Pic

I would love to go through each clip and talk about each one. Suffice it to say, if you like big rockets as much as I do, then this is one for the collection. 

Big Bad Rockets is available directly from RocketMan Enterprises for only $20.
