              A Slightly Different Skydiving Video Shot With A GoPro

              Most skydiving videos are extremely high energy. This video, produced by BettyWantsIn.com, has a totally different vibe though. Instead of the heart pounding “plummeting to your death” feeling, this video creates a calm almost floating sensation by taking advantage of the 60fps that the GoPro can shoot. I thought it was creative so I figured I would share it.

                I’m assuming Twixtor was used here as well; some of those shots were way slower than 60fps. Still, beautiful.

                Even though I don’t do any extreme sports anymore and I have no use for it, I still want a GoProHD sooooo bad.

                There are some beautiful ones about – this one was part responsible for me getting into skydiving. Love the skills of the firl at about 4:15 and then again later on.

                Love it! I’ve jumped out of a plane and most of the time it does feel more like floating than falling…. Way cool

                I kind of love that it’s an advertisement too. Great use of the GoPro’s capabilities.

                The speed at which it was shot does make skydiving seem like floating and it’s a very beautiful clip.

                So cool.
