Camera lost in freefall

WARNING!!!! Footage may trigger eplepsia!!

I didn't ensure that my camera was attached to it quick lock. When I flipped over to film the tandem opening their parachute it fell off. The camera was found 1,5 hour later in a field just next to the dropzone. The camerabox had just a small crack in it, the 0.5 lens was unscaved but the camera was bust. But the camera and battery are insured so I get a new one ;)

Hehe :D Thanks for the comments,buys.

I managed to retrieve the footage due to the camera box we use for skydiving. It's a carbon fiber box that's apparentlyvery though and it hit soft soil in a field. I didn't think it would survive either, but it did. My camera box is a "Cookie Composites Black Box". I had also attatched a 0.55 wide angle lens. The box and lens survived amazingly! Seriously, I was extremely happy when we found it. :D The footage is saved since it's stored on a SD card.

How the fuck did you retrieve the video and memory from the camera?

IF there is anything to be amazing here, it's the durability of that freaking camera.

The fact that you were able to retrieve the camera while still marginally functional to transfer memory, and not only that, but recover it in one piece, rather than discover it shredded on the ground. That... is some tough freaking plastic.
