In this video I have used artificial intelligence (AI) to upscale my earlier video of Eric Laithwaite lifting a 40 lb gyro wheel above his head with one hand. The original video was in 240p quality from 1983 at Imperial College and I have used CapCut to upscale the quality to 480p. From there I simply scaled it up to 1080p directly, but not with AI (I couldn't find a free program to do that haha...).

The CapCut software and video used are listed below:
