Hi Tom,
This link appears to only reference the SRB Sep(eration) sequence (great =
footage). If I attempt to "adjust" the link (getting back to the =
sts-121) all I get is permission denied. How did you access the rest of =
the video? Please advise...

Here is a pretty amazing video from the Shuttle's solid rocket booster.

It is about 12 minutes long. Starts sort of slowly with the Shuttle =
just sitting there, but it takes off about a minute in. At 2 minutes, =
you can see the arching exhaust plume over the Atlantic and the Cape. =
The highlight is the SRB (or should I say Orbiter) separation at 3 =
minutes. This is followed by dizzying tumbling in which both limbs of =
the Earth pass by. The chute appears to have deployed at around 5 =
minutes. The other highlight is splashdown at 7:30, as long as you =
don't give too much thought to the junk falling into the ocean.
