That was great, nice find! Max-Q was very cool from that perspective. It was interesting how long the SRB's seems to maintain the same rate of tumble during re-entry.
Now we're spending all that cash on what---welfare? Unemployment bennies?
^Second.
I was thinking the same thing until I saw the "sound design" credits at the end. That usually implies someone making up the sound FX based on what's going on in the frame. Still sounded cool, especially the SRB ignition - POW!

This is the blurb from the video: "From the upcoming Special Edition Ascent: Commemorating Space Shuttle DVD/BluRay by NASA/Glenn a movie from the point of view of the Solid Rocket Booster with sound mixing and enhancement done by the folks at Skywalker Sound. The sound is all from the camera microphones and not fake or replaced with foley artist sound. The Skywalker sound folks just helped bring it out and make it more audible."
I don't know what all was done, but they are from Skywalker Sound so their work is good.

Whiz bang filters, EQs... Cool stuff. Hardest part is synching it back up with the video- that's where a designer comes in. They also decide what is noise and what isn't. Sound Designers many times will be given a bunch of raw audio and told to make it sound awesome.
Sweet.
The drogue chute is located at the tip of the nose cone (frustum), when the SRB is in a stable tail down attitude the drogue and the frustum separate from the rest of the SRB initiating main chute deployment and the frustum rides down on the drogue. I guessing that was the frustum in the background.
