That was scary when they said 'Liftoff!' and that big heavy rocket went nowhere.

I knew something was up when those flames rolled up the rocket body instead of shooting outward.

They said earlier that they were going to do a hydrogen burn before the main thrusters are fired so the flames didn't surprise me.
