That's trouble of some kind George?

Home footage of the Challenger Space Shuttle disaster has been found.

Retired optometrist Jack Moss decided to test out his new betamax camcorder by filming the Challenger launch from his front garden, little did he know that he was about to film the world's worst space disaster.

Interestingly, he put the film in his basement and forgot all about it. The tape surfaced when Moss told a friend that he had the disaster on tape somewhere, and that he could have the film when he died.

It is believed to be the only amateur video of the explosion known to exist. Remember, this was 1986, there were no camera phones and such, and I would bet that Moss' camcorder actually had a big battery he had to carry on his shoulder.

Finding a betamax player these days was quite a struggle, but nevertheless, the video has been uploaded to youtube for all to see.
