Styfall: Wild GoPro Footage That Has Nothing to Do with Extreme Sports

A lost GoPro's unfortunate view for eight months

GoPro has done it before—survived a plane jump, that is. Now the gamechanging extreme-sports-cam can claim another feat of strength: Following a similar freefall, a GoPro has successfully endured months lost in the muck of a pig pen and the occasional curious chewing and gnawing from its porcine occupant—probably the last place the GoPro tossers expected it to end up. Mia Munselle of Cloverdale, California, found the camera on her property eight months after its crash landing. Take a look at the footage (and be glad it's from a GoPro and not one of these):

We've seen our fair share of GoPro footage in the past, from Humans Are Awesome tribute videos and duck hunting from a dog's perspective to intimate surfing shots and footage of the a trip to the top of Freedom Tower. But for every epic, never-before-documented POV clip, there are countless GoPro falls. Take a look at these trips the tiny camera caught on tape:

Cliff Jump

Obviously, the person attached to the camera got tossed around more than the camera itself, but it's still quite the tumble to catch on tape.

Barrel Roll

The car in the photo is allegedly driving at speeds of 150 mph+, according to the video description. While there's no way I can vouch for that, I can say it's going pretty fast by the looks of the yellow road lines before the camera meets pavement.

Lost At Sea

Going by the owner's account, this camera was lodged in the ocean's floor for 2.5 months until a spear fisher found it stuck in some coral. This miniature camera is a force to be reckoned with.

    "Doodlebugs:" No budget, just pure creativity

    "Doodlebugs" is the name of a sketch show on the BBC that makes good use of what is apparently a low budget. Like the best Monty Python bits, they manage to spin something creative out of nothing: Frustratingly, those are the only three clips I've been able

    Watch The Olympics Opening Ceremony Drone Video Before It Gets Taken Down (Again)

    On Saturday I was lucky enough to watch footage of the amazing drone display aired during the Olympics opening ceremony. Coordinated by Intel, 1,218 drones performed a lightshow--pre-recorded rather than conducted live, due to logistical issues--and it was posted to Vimeo for those who missed the live broadcast. Sadly, the

    This Facebook Video Shamelessly Rips Off Charles and Ray Eames

    At press time this video had 15 million views, nearly 350,000 shares, 67,000 "likes" and generated over 8,000 comments: Nowhere are the Eameses mentioned. That video is, of course, a blatant and uncredited rip-off of Charles and Ray Eames' "Powers of Ten," the short film that most of

    This Italian Machine Cuts Perfectly Spherical Shrubs

    Orlandi Group's inventions are the best way to get round

    Unless you are a landscape architect, you may not realize that clients can order shrubs from nurseries by diameter. Let's say a client orders a dozen 65-centimeter shrubs. Since shrubs tend to grow as they like, with no two alike, it would provide a headache for the nursery to go
