  • >>Sergey Brin: Hey, Vic, I’ve got a really cool event for you. >>Vic Gundotra: Sergey!

  • [ Cheers and applause ] >>Sergey Brin: How are you doing?

  • >>Vic Gundotra: Guys, we -- we're going to -- we're going to do something pretty magical

  • here. And we have a special surprise for you.

  • >>Sergey Brin: We have something pretty special for you. It's a little bit time-sensitive,

  • so I apologize for interrupting. You've seen some really compelling demos here.

  • They were slick, they were robust. This is going to be nothing like that. [ Laughter ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: This can go wrong in about 500 different ways. So tell me now, who wants

  • to see a demo of Glass? [ Cheers and applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: So we've been really excited to test it for a few months. The unit I actually

  • really want to show you, I lent to a friend, and he's going to be here momentarily. My friend's J.T.

  • He does a lot of skiing, base jumping, wingsuiting, all sorts of crazy things. And he's actually

  • pretty close by. He's just about a mile overhead right now. [ Laughter ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: -- with his buddies they have a few Glass units. If you guys can maybe afford

  • to wait that couple of minutes. [ Applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: Maybe they'll bring them down. >>> They're cheering for us.

  • >>Sergey Brin: All right. We're about to get into a Hangout here with J.T.

  • Hey, J.T., J.T., can you hear me? >>> Yes.

  • >>Sergey Brin: Hello, hello. We might have a few technical issues.

  • >>> Can you hear me?

  • >>Sergey Brin: Yeah, yeah. Hey, we're just down here in Moscone. I’ve got a few thousand people here.

  • I was hoping to maybe get that unit that I lent you down here. And I thought maybe you

  • guys could show us a fun time on the way down.

  • >>> Yeah, if you can hear me down there. I've been listening to your speech through the

  • Hangout. It's pretty cool.

  • >>Sergey Brin: Cool, cool. I see you and friends are in a plane close-by there.

  • Any chance we can get a view out the window?

  • >>> Heck, yeah. It's beautiful, we had a visual on Moscone a minute ago.

  • >>Sergey Brin: All right. This is a Hangout from Glass. [ Cheers and applause ]

  • >>> Look at that! >>Sergey Brin: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

  • >>> Coming a little closer. I think we're going to get you that device pretty quickly, actually.

  • >>Sergey Brin: I see the roof of Moscone there. So if you guys can, you know, be safe, but

  • get it down here in a hurry for us, we'd love to watch that.

  • >>> Okay. Yeah, you'll have to standby. We've got our wing suits. So we've got a pretty

  • good range. It's kind of interesting. People have watched us fly many times before.

  • But I don't think that the world's ever tagged along live for a ride. I mean, we're --

  • nobody really knows the outcome of this jump. We're feeling really confident about it. [ Laughter ]

  • >>> How are you feeling, Pete?

  • >>Sergey Brin: We're all rooting for you. What do you guys think, should they go for it? [ Cheers and applause ]

  • >>> Not in position yet. About one minute, Sergey. Maybe you've got to entertain the crowd a little.

  • >>Sergey Brin: That looks like the view down, that looks like a long way down.

  • >>> Turn it sideways. >>> There's the ballpark. >>> This is good. Stop here. >>> Yeah, Moscone center. I've got a visual on you. [ Laughter ]

  • >>> Okay. >>Sergey Brin: So this is one of the things, as we've been experimenting with Glass, just

  • the ability to really share. And we've posted some pictures.

  • But as we start to experiment, being able to share what you're seeing live is really amazing.

  • And, you know, we're not -- we don't know what's going to happen here. These guys are

  • all really good. They're trained. And I have great confidence. But this is -- this is a demo that -- >>> Yeah.

  • >>Sergey Brin: All right. Door's open. Door's open.

  • >>> Let's -- we've got time. >>Sergey Brin: All right. Happy flight!

  • >>> You know what? We can jump. >>> Let's do it. It's going to be beautiful.

  • >>> It's going to be perfect. >>> Yeah! Look at that! >>Sergey Brin: All right.

  • >>> Yooo! San Francisco! [ Cheers and applause ]

  • >>> All right. Everybody's super happy. >>> Nice and close-in there.

  • >>Sergey Brin: They've got to get to the right place so they can hit the roof.

  • >>> Three, two --

  • >>Sergey Brin: I'm going to take a few pictures to record this for posterity. And they're off! [ Cheers and applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: All right. And they're flying. Look at that, look at that. You can see Moscone

  • right below there.

  • Live Hangout, through Google Glass. Four skydivers. And they're under canopy. Chutes are open.

  • Woo-hoo! [ Cheers and applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: Okay. Where's Vic. Vic, hey, look, this is a Hangout On Air. [ Laughter ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: So it's a little bit tricky landing on a building, as you might imagine.

  • I don't know if you have ever tried this kind of thing before.

  • But you can see all their perspectives now. They're going to have to line up one after

  • another to get down to the roof here.

  • It's a little bit of a -- it's a pretty big roof, actually, which is great for their landing.

  • And you can see there's -- there's a little yellow arrow they're aiming for.

  • It's pretty exciting. Hopefully, they land it.

  • All right. And they're coming in. First one's coming in.

  • >>> Woo-hoo!

  • >>Sergey Brin: All right. [ Cheers and applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: Yeah! [ Applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: So, okay, folks, thank you. Woo-hoo!

  • Hey, so the roof is a little bit big there, so it would take a while to run down the length of it.

  • So we got, actually, a few bikers up there for this eventuality.

  • Weve got them wearing Glass, too. And there's our little package. Let's see if we can --

  • let's see if we can get it here in a hurry.

  • Here we go. First person with Glass, here are the bikers.

  • Yeah! Woo-hoo! Here they come down.

  • And, you know, there's only one good way down the side of a building.

  • >>> Have fun. >>Sergey Brin: It's pretty high up there if you haven't been there before. Don't try this

  • at home, kids. These are trained professionals.

  • >>> All right. Now we've got to get down there. Wanna unplug me?

  • >>Sergey Brin: All right, they're going. Wait, wait wait wait, whoa, whoa, whoa! No,

  • were on the third -- Okay. Close call.

  • Sorry about that. So this is pretty wild.

  • I've never seen that perspective before. And --

  • >>> Special delivery. Bring that to Sergey.

  • >>Sergey Brin: We still have a couple of bikes. Its a little bit of a long way. I apologize.

  • [Laughter]

  • >>Sergey Brin: Don't run anybody over! [ Cheers and Applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: All right. Please stay in your seats, folks. Don't get into the aisles.

  • Please keep the aisles clear. Here they come up. [ Cheers and Applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: Yeah! Woo-hoo! [ Cheers and Applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: Yeah. That was awesome. All right. That was pretty amazing. [ Applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: All right. A big round of applause for our bikers. [ Cheers and Applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: I'll get a little picture of you there with my Glass.

  • All right. We've got -- I just wanted to -- some of our athletes who are performers I wanted

  • to give them another big round of applause. We have the rappellers in the back. And --

  • [ Applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: It takes a little while. And we've got the -- let's see.

  • And the skydivers should be close behind them. Thank you so much. That was amazing. [ Applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: Okay. All right. Thanks, guys. [ Cheers and Applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: All right. Now maybe we should -- well, all right. Come on up, guys. You're already here. Come on up, take a bow. [ Cheers and Applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: These are the rappellers, all the bikers you saw up there.

  • And there's the sky diving crew coming down the aisle. [ Cheers and Applause ]

  • >>Sergey Brin: Hey, J.T., that was amazing. We were worried about you. That was awesome.

  • All right, thank you all so much. Now maybe we should tell you a little bit about Glass. [Laughter]

  • >>Sergey Brin: All right, guys, have fun. You can meet them.

  • They'll be out and around if you want to chat with them. Thank you so much.

  • Now, here's what -- no, no. This is the wrong one. [Laughter]

  • >>Sergey Brin: I think we have to do it again. [Laughter]

  • >>> I'd be happy to.

  • >>Sergey Brin: We'll find the time. We actually might have the time.

  • If you want to see behind the scenes and maybe catch some of that activity on -- through Hangout, tune in tomorrow.

  • But now I just want to tell you a bit about how we made that happen and why we're so excited

  • about Glass, and to tell you that I have Babak and Isabelle. Please welcome them aboard.

  • [ Applause ]

>>Sergey Brin: Hey, Vic, I’ve got a really cool event for you. >>Vic Gundotra: Sergey!
