GoPro In Less Than 60 Seconds, From Janitor To Tunnel God

Sydney Williams — Tue, 05 Feb 2013 12:50:26 +0000

Watch as the janitors at Skydive Arena turn into total tunnel rockstars in less 60 seconds, complete with hot groupies and bubbly. We love groupies and good tunnel videos around here, and we’re especially lovin’ the flyer POV in the tunnel. Wouldn’t that suck to snag your GoPro on the net?!

Bobble-Head BASE Jump

Andrew — Thu, 20 Dec 2012 13:10:29 +0000

Being scared just makes it more fun, right?! What better time to get vertigo then when you’re standing on the beams of the Perrine Bridge, looking down at the water not too far below. I love this GoPro view of Marshall Miller’s face pre- and post-jump; he looks like one of those bobble-head toys on the dashboard of a car.

Snowy Superior Speedflying

Snowy white everywhere you look — every ridge, every rock, every branch, every flat. Thanks to Marshall Miller of the GoPro Bomb Squad for this beautiful footage from a speedflying run at Mt. Superior in Utah. And thanks to GoPros that get us this footage. For anyone interested in flying parachutes, speed wings, paragliders, or whatever next to stunning terrain, this is worth a watch. Have you ever tried speedflying?

GoPro Survives 12,500ft Freefall Without Case, Films Landing Too!

Andrew — Thu, 27 Sep 2012 11:52:30 +0000

WARNING: The majority of this footage is seizure-inducing and may cause your eyes to bleed.

We all know GoPro Hero cameras are bomb-proof. Just ask the dude who had a scary head-down premature opening and lost his GoPro from from 10,000ft. But this video takes 1st place in the OMGWTFLMAO department. Not only does his GoPro survive a 12,500ft freefall WITHOUT the case, but it lands on the DZ and films everyone landing. Lol. You can’t make this shit up. GoPro or go home.

GoPro VOD: Incredible. Intense. Iceland.

Andrew — Wed, 25 Jul 2012 11:50:42 +0000

GoPro’s Matthias “Super Frenchie” Giraud shows us the beauty — and danger — of BASE jumping in the unspoiled wilds of Iceland. In his own words, “From the moment you jump, it’s just this out of body experience, which is what life is all about. Without intensity or challenge in life, nobody reaches happiness. You reach content and it’s dangerous for your soul. Honestly.” Needless to say, Super Frenchie is pretty intense. After all, he is famous for escaping an avalanche by ski-BASE jumping off a cliff.

F.U.N. That’s what’s up.

Melanie Curtis — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 11:50:55 +0000

I like Team FUNorDIE’s style, “we may not be the best, but we have the most FUN!” Hell yeah. They also know how to have fun with a GoPro. Lots of skydiving footage, but we also kick it off with a tattoo, plus a massive party and a joyride on the back of a motorcycle. Oh, and an off-heading BASE jump too. Cool footage, cool vibes, check it out.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the luckiest man in the world: Jeb Corliss. Here’s the extended version of Jeb Corliss’ wingsuit crash video with GoPro footage from multiple angles. Considering the force of the impact, it’s impressive he managed to get his canopy out and over his head before hitting the ground… again. We’re all happy to still have you around Jeb; please use your other 8 lives sparingly.
