Awesome Pov

Watch James Heptonstall race against a subway train, at least for a short while. He gets off at a London Tube station then runs like a madman to the train’s next stop about 1260ft. away. Will he get there on time? One more here.

Shimano shared this footage taken from the perspective of one of its neutral mechanics at La Vuelta 2014. Riding on a motorcycle, the mechanic helps riders in need of fresh tires and keeps used tires.

With the release of GoPro’s pet mounts, we’re bound to see many more dog POV videos, but they’ll be hard pressed to top this epic 36 second video of Walter, a labrador who loves swimming in the sea more than just about anything else.

Red Bull Air Force stunt pilot Hannes Arch knows how to make an entrance, taking off for his daredevil flight through the Austrian Alps from one of its awe-inspiring highways. The flying after he gets off the ground ain’t bad either.

GoPro footage captured by Christian Yellott as he winds his way through Mountain Sheep Canyon at Arizona’s Lake Powell. While he does slow down a little bit in the narrowest parts, it’s still a crazy place to take a jet ski.

A strangely relaxing POV video captured from the cockpit of an F16 fighter jet as it does low-level runs over the diverse and beautiful terrain of Greenland. We’re pretty sure that without the music it would be more intense.

…aka the best pizza ad of all time. YouTuber haberdashery12 put a GoPro to the pair of tongs that he uses to remove pizzas and other pies where he works. Pizza chains are going to see a spike in orders in the next couple of weeks.

We’ve seen speed flying over snowy hills. Here YouTuber Derek Dutton parachutes from and skims over a terrifyingly rocky slope before zooming between two buildings and finally scaring the heck out of a gardener.

(NSFW: Language) Mountain biker Claudio Caluori is back with another POV video. This time he gives us a breakneck tour of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup course at the Mont-Sainte-Anne ski resort in Canada.

Professional stuntman Ethan Swanson jumped from the top of a four-story building then cushioned his fall by sliding down the roof of a house below. If you’re calling shenanigans, his jump is shown in its entirety at 1:45.

Benji Brand won the GoPro of the World for June with this unreal footage of him riding through long wave after long wave off the coast of Skeleton Bay in Namibia. You can watch the original video here.

White knuckle footage of hillclimb racer Jos Goodyear going up the narrow roads of Doune on his 400hp GWR Raptor. As if that wasn’t crazy enough, apparently his 35.05s lap time was “only” second best at the event. Skip to 1:30.

By sticking his GoPro to the wheel of his car (using duct tape!) University of Wisconsin student Ryan Fox captured the dizzying life from the perspective of a spinning car wheel. Jane, stop this crazy thing!

To promote Arbor Skateboards, KJ Nakanelua takes us on a downhill run through Hawaii at a pace that we’d have trouble keeping up with in a car. Kudos to chase cam operator Nate Shute for capturing the action so flawlessly.

Gavin Peacock of FlippedSociety made his own Russian swing and used it as a diving board. Unlike most swings, the device has steel bars instead of ropes and is often used by circus performers to pull off high acrobatic jumps.

Fly along with a U.S. Navy pilot in an F/A-18F Super Hornet for some dizzying POV footage as his fighter jet conducts a low-altitude training run, starting over the Pacific Ocean then flying over Northern California and Oregon.

Yuki Eikawa’s travel videos are extraordinarily immersive. He doesn’t add narration or background music and mostly shoots at eye level. You can see more on his YouTube channel. Some are available on Blu-ray as well. Watch in HD.

While filming Matt Macduff’s Breathe Easy, freestyle mountain biker Aaron Chase tried to take on the open loops in Macduff’s backyard course. He used a couple of GoPros to record his painful attempts and the sweet victory.

(NSFW: Language, Gore) In 1998, 22-year old Deputy Kyle Dinkheller pulled a man over for speeding. Benjamin Arfmann made this reenactment not to titillate but to remind us of the dangers of being a law enforcement officer.

POV and on board clips from Polish Air Force pilots in MiG-29 fighters. Watch them practice formations, engage in mock dogfights and even fire a missile. The song is The Glitch Mob’s We Can Make the World Stop. Part 1 here.

Experience the Pikes Peak hillclimb from a unique perspective – from the bumper of Greg Tracy’s rocketship fast 603hp all-electric Mitsubishi MiEV Evolution III. We’re assuming the siren is to warn spectators because the car is silent.

In-car POV footage from driver Mark Higgins’ recent record-setting 19 minute, 15 second lap of the Isle of Man TT course, driven in a 2015 Subaru WRX STI. All we can say is that this guy has balls of steel – and his car ain’t bad either.

Mountain biker Claudio Caluori takes us on a thrilling POV bike ride through the Scottish countryside, hitting insane speeds and grabbing air a few times along the way. The part in between the trees is downright nuts.
