As we all know GoPro's are amazing. They shoot in full 1080p and they fit in our pocket without destroying our wallet (New GoPro Slogan?). Anyways, i've seen some pretty sweet stuff done with gopros, different mounts, different angels, all sorts of interesting stuff. If anyone has any ideas they wanna share, post them here.

i dont really like pov, so i think the coolest use is in places you couldn'r or wouldn't trust to put a real camera, different angles and such

just was watching this: (airplane, but still awesome)i stuck mine in my fish tank and chased my fish around with it. pretty funny. this summer i'm hoping to do more with the waterproofness- like fishing, swimming cliff jumping. i feel like this feature is under-utilized by most people with the camera

Check from 58 sec.. One of the best ways to shoot skiing/pov kinda style.. Its nice beceause you can see the head move while the camera stays still..

cliff jumping/bridge jumping is the coolest thing ive done. but the best shots are not pov. they are just followcams. if you can time it right and jump behind someone, it looks sick


shitty picture for reference.
