@dabigjokeoftheday well there are the rich idiots who just stamp on their camera to the baseplate, and put sum weights there and there, and then write an angry review on amazon about how it won't "fucking balance"

This was a great video for my attention deficit disorder.

LOL @ weighing his head!

I am sure that Mr. Brown, inventor or the steadicam, is equally insulted by people who complain that his system doesn't work after slapping a camera on without reading the manual. How many of us HONESTLY read the whole manual before trying something like this? The video covers a lot of ground because you need to know all of that to fly a camera. I am better at RTFM than anyone I know, and I am no saint. No offense taken by that remark.
