I waited a couple of years for someone to make this video, so I finally decided to do it myself. I shot the video about three months ago and just now edited it down.

The micro camera website mentioned above has lots of examples of what this camera is an how to operate it. You'd be pretty amazed how many uses there are for one.

I hope you enjoy! If you enjoy my stuff, I would appreciate it if you subscribe! I've also posted another video which investigates the "Backdriven reflex" in more depth. It can be viewed here:

People are often worried about how tight the binder was on the chicken's head. You'll note I said "without hurting the chicken". I stretched the binder out so it had a very light clamping force.

Also, this video inspired another user, Jeremiahjw to create his own chicken powered steadicam. His video can be seen here:

Now we must selectively breed chickens, for science and for the best steady cam functionality they can give us.

If he believes in gods and zombie jebuses he is superstitious. Thats fucking embarrassing.

[Breakfast221]

Why would he be superstitious? He's a man of science, but it seems he also believes in Christianity to a certain degree.

I don't really believe in religion, but I don't see why his being religious and a scientist would be a problem.

Try it with a large dry fly that has the hook removed and see how well it tracks. Yea chickens do two things and thats eat and well the end result of eating.

Who needs tripods when you have chickens?
