Shooting a GoPro Hero 4 from a Homemade CANNON – Crissy Field San Francisco

    GoPro Canon

    Few things are as exciting as shooting something out of a cannon…but try shooting a GoPro using a 3D-printed projectile!  This very cool video is going viral as hell, showing two guys doing just that.  David and Ryan, created a homemade cannon with their GoPro as a cannon ball.  The footage it shoots on its way up, and then back down where they catch it, is astounding!

    May sound pretty dumb, but it’s relatively safe.  Using compressed air it’s like a kids toy from the 70’s.  These same two guys have actually created a channel called Eclectically Engineering and, in addition to sending GoPros into the air they’ve also published the plans for each of their projects, allowing you to make your own GoPro sabot that allows you to fire cameras into the air just like them. With their helpful instruction you can DIY at home with a few simple tools and stuff from the local hardware store…GoPro too of course.

    Shot out in Crissy Field, in San Francisco, this video is a bit more close to my heart – since I live nearby.  Don’t hit my house guys!
