Escape Vehicle no.6 presents the journey of a domestic chair from the earth to the edge of space. The film started as a live event in a disused aircraft testing site. The live audience first witnessed the launching of a weather balloon with a domestic chair dangling in beneath it. Once the apparatus had dissapeared into the sky they then watched a live video relay from the weather balloon as it journeyed from the ground to the edge of space (30km up).
