It's only when you see the buoys fly past under the plane that you get an impression of who low it is, then the splash up from the drop.
Obviously for modern Canadian Elf & Safety reasons they blew it later rather than use an explosive bouncing bomb, at least that what it looks to me.

And once again, those of us in the US are screwed out of seeing something cool because people decide to upload it with country restrictions....
(yes that one in the middle of nowhere in Canada http://www.buffaloairways.com/), think (UK) Channel 4 next month (allegedly).
