About This Video

Van built a rig to shoot out the window while driving and just got carried away. Custom-built GoPro with seam-mount lenses: one for closer shots, one for further away, one macro lens for tight closeups. Inlaid lead base smelted from fishing weights so the camera doesn't fall over. Magnets and cable clamps for the Allen wrench. Wireless mic storage. Grip carved out of firewood. Adjustable height screw feet to keep the base level. I love this rig. He can't really help himself.
