At 22:40 he says they got some lucky imaging data from 2 people, but also included 385hrs of other longer exposure data gathered by other contributors. The final image includes all the data as far as I can tell. I would love to see the result from JUST the lucky imaging data but I suspect it would not be nearly as deep as the final product. You simply can not pick up that really faint data with sub-second exposures with a normal size telescope. Detail within a bright galaxy core or PN… well that may be a different story.
