Check out the\u00a0amazing\u00a0footage they captured below. The breathtaking video they produced is something that is typically only seen by pigeons and seagulls over the Brooklyn and Verazano Bridge, around Downtown Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty.<\/p>\n<p>The shots that they took are just part of what makes this story so damn cool. The best part about it is that they went out and shot this unique footage with no permits and without alerting the city. Check out an<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2MwfEVIfiGs\"> interview with RC pilot Raphael Pirker<\/a> about this stunt.<\/p>\n<p>Way to go Team Black Sheep. This is a truly unseen perspective and we are very impressed.
