So many times I see a guy video calling another crew across the country and it can take a solid 5-10 seconds before we hear them reply. I’ve seen kids in siberia with better ping.

They use satellites for the video feed rather than an internet connection. Most communications satellites are in a geosynchronous orbit (rather than low-earth orbit) so the signal makes a roughly 45,000 mile (70,000 km) round trip. This alone creates a *minimum* delay of about a quarter second.
