  • I was thinking of something like this, but with a twist. A sort of failsafe if you will, attaching a small parachute to the camera itself, then attaching the fishing line directly to the camera. With a good snap you could break the camera loose and allow it to free fall via parachute to the earth still attached to your fishing line.

  • or you can just buy a weather balon

    they are much biggers

  • So how many balloons did it take? The tank says 30 balloons, so did you use them all just for the GoPro? I want to add a GPS as well.

  • Flim Riot brought me here!

  • Sexy

    

  • Amazing contraption man always looking for low budget ways to pull great camera angles off. Keep up the innovation we were forced to subscribe to the ingenuity.

  • With a well placed pulley or two, and an awning or something to hide under, you could very easily have a shot where your camera comes down to eventually focus on your subject, while the person with the fishing pole is off camera. Awesome.

  • wow, awesome! the shots turned out pretty cool, but i imagine that it would be impossible to shoot something from a specific angle, as it just seemed to float where it wanted...

  • Awesome! I've gotta try this. So how many balloons did it take? Looks like about... 30???

  • beautiful
