Yes it got hit by a drifting car!!! This is just a tease of what all went on today, i'm also to tired to bother starting to edit the rest of my footage + Photo's. I have 40+gb's from just one day.

I shall no longer fear my gopro breaking. I think a slow motion segment is in order for that video.

haha im just trying to gather all of the footage i can, there will def be a slomo shot of that, so long as it doesn't warp the video to much

These things will survive anything. Seriously. They survive 80.000ft. free falls. They'd survive a fucking nuclear explosition.

They should build tanks out of GoPros. And even then the weak part of the tank would be the glue between the GoPros.

This one fell from 12500ft. ... WITHOUT its casing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZ2clu2agdg

This one fell from 80000ft only being slowed down by an exploded baloon. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAifzh7_-cg

This Drift survived two free falls from 500 meters, being flooded and then mowed together with grass.

I really want to launch my gopro into near space with a weather balloon. I've been reading on how they do it and retrieve the camera. It's going to be a hassle for me. Most people who do them are college/high school classes. Plus where I live I'd have to get a permit due to all the air traffic.
