[Blaster7492]

[drukenhard]

Love seeing these things take a battering and never miss a beat!

[deanoobaby]

allways tie a lanyard to it never trust the suction cup . i even drilled and counter sunk holes in the adhesive mounts and use small nut an bolts to mount it on my jetski and use a lanyard for back up

[billstmaxx]

wow good durability test for the camera it's self tho!

[mk3stargazer]

Make your own safety lanyard!

survived falling off a motorcycle at highway speeds and being run over by a car.. I call this a WIN!

[THTSWAGGABOY]

@shyyphotography They are shock proof, this thing could fall off of a plane and survive

[zagacks]

hahah, at least you smiled for the camera when you went to pick it up

[transalpernz]

Good to know, you have saved me from the same mistake.

Was thinking about the topbox and a suction cup.

Maybe I'll just use that on windows and use adhesive mounts for everything else.

[Costas2305F]

thanks that you shared it with us! you're very lucky that your camera was survived!!!!

[brianmichaelmiddleto]

Thanks for sharing, glad your camera was ok!!

Safety lines? We use them all the time with anything mounted on a hanglider as it is technically illegal to drop any thing from the air other than permitted ballast.

I have DRIFT HD170 and i dont trust my velcro adhesive clip on mount so im trying to fit a lanyard.

[haakisen]

:/

[caligrownsufer]

would using a suction mount work on a bodyboard and surfboard?

[TheDumbGrunt]

the suction cup probably didn't fail you probably just failed at installing it

[zieroh]

@TheDumbGrunt You probably failed to read the text at the end of the video.

[lampingromeo]

Use a lanyard as a tether so if it falls off it just hangs. Cheers!

[WeAreLivimItUp]

The white rubber insert will stop that clicking noise and cut the vibration of the camera out

[nicholastan91]

shit..now i feel what its like to fall off the back of a bike first person view..SCARY!!

[kingcol252]

it comes with a white insert to prevent that movement

[Mustang50turbo88]

I think it passed the durability test lol

[HueyNewtonsDream]

Ate shit really hard skiing and lost my GoPro in a foot and a half of fresh snow. Damn you sticky mounts! Guess I'll go look for it this summer ;(

[arandomthot5]

@HueyNewtonsDream hahaha.i dont think ur gunna find it

[micbergsma]

that made a cool video! 

[brokeMBAtv]

What editing software did you use? I'm struggling with windows movie maker live.

[The88katana600]

thank god the other cars did not run it over. looks like it held up good! i love my gopro.

If you still want to mount the cup to whatever you had it on.. Just sand then wet sand and buff a spot on whatever it is (if you desire) then the cup will be able to maintain a good suction.

funny video mate, btw quality is really good, can't wait to buy one for my Rockster!

cheers from Italy
