It's unbelievable. How do you coordinate all of that?? I guess I know how, but how could anybody want to?? Whew!!!

Saint Cloud, Minnesota, where the weather is wonderful even when it isn't.

I've seen similar, but this is another level. Plus Wrigleyville can't be beat. Chicago rocks.

That's very cool.

That was excellent and gave a great sense of space.

Biggest drone display ever! - Guinness World Record (3,051)

Uh, oh...., Baby Buzz was created on the day Mrs. Buzz and I visited Wrigley Field. It was also the last time I had any semblance of a full beard... until now*.
Back then, drones weren't a thing, but now; wow, those drone jockeys are amazing (as well as the video editors).
I wonder if Mrs. Buzz views this video when she gets back from doing her "girly stuff", whether Baby Buzz will have a sibling early next summer?

*Started current beard ~11 months ago when nephew's second kid hatched, and will be visiting them in couple of weeks. Goal was to keep beard until kid started walking,
which just happened a few days ago.... but beard + Wrigley worked out pretty well last time, though that beard was trimmed, and this one's more like ZZTop.

Hard to argue that the shots with crowd are spliced. I dunno.

Hurts like a bastid...

That was a fun video! Thanks for sharing. I spent most of my career traveling (mostly) to Chicago area for business so I have been to a handful of games at Wrigley Field. Seeing some of the areas that are typically not seen by spectators was pretty cool!

Looking for more drone fun? [www.youtube.com]

Tangential... the 4:24 minute continuous shot from the movie The Vast of Night.

Impressive footage BUT, I expect the drone operator violated numerous FAA Rules & Regulations. If that IS the case, said operators just made life a LOT more difficult or all other drone operators who DO operate their drones in a safe and legal manner.

Bet you were a wild and crazy guy when you were young -not!

Great editing, but I'm gonna bet that there was at least a drone crash, or two, or more, and that several "takes" for many of the shots were required.
I would also bet that several test flights were flown to get the mapping and blocking down, before many of the real "takes" were attempted.
Cobbling together the soundtrack clips from soundbites culled from over the decades was a nice touch.
The whole thing was very well put together. Would love to see similar videos for other sports venues.

This is not like the bowling alley video.

It's obvious that many of the shots were actually done on a dolly and many were simulated with clever editing. Drones do not maintain the same height when moving left/right to avoid obstacles and they don't make right-angle turns at-speed to duck through slits that are mere inches high.

It was simply a nicely edited homage to a unique ballpark, do Fenway next.
