Was this made using some kind of ASCII video converter? Because I can't imagine something like this being done manually.

What a neat project! All of the frames live in hidden column 'Q', beginning at row 99, and ending at row 639. One frame per cell at a rate of 12 frames/second. I have no idea how they converted the digital video frames to ASCII.

There's a nice product out there called Magic ASCII Studio. But there is also a completely freeware pice of software called BG ASCII. Here's the description for it:
BG_ASCII v1.3 is an interactive ASCII graphic tool. It can create color, halftone or black and white ascii pictures from image files (supports many image file formats) and artistic ascii text.

exactly. and since you can decompose all the frames of a video using virtualdub, you just have to give that ascii program all your pictures and voila.
I'll stick to the Rolfcopter and Lollerskate as the best ascii animation ever ;)
