What's with the floating platform? The footage looks like it's from a Bond movie.
You mean the floating platform attached to a submarine ? http://www.copenhagensuborbitals.com/ I hope someone has told the Russians: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwegian_rocket_incident

Their submarine is homebuilt, so I doubt it will match any Russian Specs...

This is one of the problems with a sealaunch. Its really hard to get internet connection, much less a broadband connection when youre 30 kilometers from the nearest land.
I mean, if these guys can build a submarine and (hopefully) launch a rocket, I'm pretty sure they can manage a link to a good quality broadcast ;)

Last year they ran into some problems when they called the danish navy and asked 'is it ok with you guys if we tow our 115000 horsepower rocket through danish territorial waters using the largest homebuilt submarine ever built?' unsurprisingly, the initial answer was that it was not ok. They got it solved though.
