The new iphone looks like it takes dope footage for a cell phone, you guys think that with a waterproof case and a helmet mount, it would make a good helmet cam?

it could work but you shouldn't do it for two reasons
1. you would look like an idiot with an iphone strapped to your head
2. helmet cams have a wide field of view and an iphone does not, so the the footage will appear to be zoomed in consequently resulting in shakier looking footage

but yes it could work

Kids a n00b fsho ;) Lawl neat idea, try it out I guess? I can't think of any reasons not to try it, but just accept all the consequences that come with strapping a piece of technology to your head.

There is a high chance that it'll break off and either you'll lose the phone or it will actually break...

But if you want to, go for it.
