OgreMkIV Anyone notice the "bump" after separation? That's gonna be a problem. The solid booster is probably riding the draft of the wider second stage.
RockBolt The lower stage's tumble motors fired fine and spun the booster like planned, but the upper stage wasn't expected to go into a flat spin like that. But one hiccup looks like the booster hit the ocean too hard after one of its chutes deflated-

Urist Didn't get a sense of scale until it started to lift off... At first it looked tiny.
That thing is bloody huge, Saturn V huge (though skinny).
