video here
This video was shot with a DJI mini 2 drone. It shows the Gemenid meteor shower which is one of the largest of the year with around 150 meteors per hour. The footage has been sped up to make it more viewable. I hope you enjoy. https://youtu.be/rm8idFRIjow

The post processing took quite some time. Stabilisation. De noise video. Etc.

Impressive for an entry level drone to capture meteors.

One thing puzzles me. In real time, meteors shoot through the sky quite fast and are usually visible for only one or two seconds at the most. If your video is sped up 10x I'd expect the meteors to whoosh by so fast you'd barely see them.

That’s the speed  they were.

Have you filmed a meteor shower? Is so share.

If you’re just hate posting then I wish you well with your life.

There was nothing hateful about it so no need to get defensive. I just made an observation. A fellow star-gazing friend of mine sees the same discrepancy.

The meteors in your video at 10x are visible for roughly half a second to one second, so in real time they would have lasted for five to ten seconds which is highly unusual for meteors other than big fireballs. Maybe you're mistaken about how much you sped the video up and it was really only 2x?

This video of the Geminid shower was recorded in real time. The meteors last about the same length of time as in your video.
