The most ridiculous steadicam shot. Eurovision steadicam Karsten Jacobsen

[Proctie1]

The camera operator is really testing that focus puller out xD

[SuperPaloh]

That is amazing :D

[milesjwade]

Just to clear up the misunderstanding -- many people in the U.S. use the word "ridiculous" when they mean "extraordinary" or "amazing". They actually mean that it is amazing, not that it is worthy of ridicule.

[Horia747]

that is some skill

[SkuToV]

The ridiculous parts of this video are: A: The steadicam operators skill level, B: The focus pullers skill level, C: That segway dismount, D: The singers face. Can we end the discussion here please?

[TestShoot]

HOLY!!!! AMAZING!

[PsalmsPoetic]

Yeah, the AC or focus puller is the real hero here....

[SGDBranding]

This is not ridiculous, is the best steadycam shot I have ever seen... and ESC 2009 took place in Russia, not Ukraine...

[pppbela]

The shot is not ridiculous! The singer's face and look can be ridiculous. A slower zoom would have been better. BTW it is a good work.

[ANDERSOMVIDEOMAKER]

very good...!!!

[moacir90]

esse tem q ganhar um oscar..... :D

[MrCameronAllan]

that segway dismount was ridiculous

[fabianahungary]

Cool!

[MallyC]

Gratuitous

The focus puller should slap the operator for just thinking about doing it!

[DJSFV12]

but at the behind the scenes shot, you didn't seen the crowd, rather than the first.

[joesabido]

@DJSFV12 The "behind the scenes" shot shows the rehearsal.

[DJSFV12]

@joesabido So in other words, it was before or after the live show?

[joesabido]

@DJSFV12 Yes. Rehearsals are, by definition, before the live show.

[DJSFV12]

@joesabido Allright! Thanks!

Some learned again.

[deivik]

Absolutely awesome!!!! Fuckin´ segway!!!! 

[iphxxx]

this is the first time i've seen a higher quality version of this video yes the part of him hopping off the segway is impressive but i have noticed that it was pretty jerky throughout alot of the shot, it could have been smoother but definitely props for the segway and jumping off part i dont kno if i could do that

[RunningLemonStudios]

@iphxxx Shut the fuck up

[Carllammi]

@iphxxx Have you ever flown, or even worn a steadycam rig? I'm not trying to be a dick here and call you out, but i'm genuinely curious, because even putting it on is hard, let alone operating it. That was damn slick for that move. I don't know if there is anyone who could do it better.

[ElreydeMostoles]

Ridiculous? You don't have idea about the hard work of a steady cameraman

[maniacdoug]

That focus puller is pretty awesome too...

[nikomo0]

Fuck Charlie Sheen, this dude is winning.

[clowitdaflo]

his shadow is in the shot like 3times.

[periclesfilm]

Que impresión yo quiero hacerlo ;) 

[daxdigital]

eurovision contests always have crazy steadicam shots. it's a tradition. i still remember there's one 360 (0r 720?) edgree shot from the EV in Riga. a few years back.

[uklebot]

The steadycam shot isn't the ridiculous part.

[Syler89]

Epic!!
