LOL I was waiting for comments like this.

Next someone will come on to the forum and state it's slightly more blurry now to hide various wires that were used to make them look as if they had very little weight.

So they lowered the contrast and blurred it a little; losing detail in the process... I think I like the original better :/

Did you watch any of the videos or just look at the still on the article?

I think they have done an impressive job when you actually watch some of the footage.
