July 9, 20178 yr Amazing how the gopro rotations almost sync'd with the image after a little while! EDIT I hope that the camera was not deliberately dropped from the aircraft...

July 11, 20178 yr Two things: 1. The durability of the GoPro is absolutely incredible. 2. Pigs will try to eat anything.
