Sweet looking, but I don't like the fact that it isn't totally controllable.

Wow, those guys almost got beaned in the head by that contraption.

Let's see, there's a 2" Class III receiver hitch and ball in there, an aluminum pole, a few pieces of high-density particle board, some aluminum foil for good measure, oh yeah, and a freakin' shoulder mount camera system. That would have left a nice mark!

Beautiful result. I also agree about retaining control. I think I may actually try and talk an engineering friend into developing something with control.

Super cool but you might need to buy extra insurance just in case the cam punches a hole on the talent's head :shocked:

Amen to that. Looks VERY dangerous.

Very cool nonetheless.
