GoPro Crashed by Race Car/Video Footage

GoPros are rugged little cameras that can give us amazing insight into the insides of our cars, from the tire to the intake manifold. They can also show us things that few of us dare to see with our own eyes.

And while the GoPro camera may be expensive, it can survive the collision better than we can and capture the experience. so that it can be shared. The video of the collision between the car and the camera was shared by The Drive.

The experience was captured during a recent short track race recorded on Facebook page DirtDobber Video, which sounds like you would have had to show ID to get into a race in the 1990s. They left a GoPro camera on the inside ring of the dirt oval during the race (it's not clear what, where or when) to record the kind of wide-angle footage you'd normally only get from top-mounted cameras at Grand Prix circuits. But due to the fact that it was not possible to bury the camera, the operator risked that a car would fly into the GoPro. And we all know Murphy's law.

The resulting footage looks like either a deleted scene from Interstellar or what we imagine a DMT breakthrough looks like. The camera is hurtling through the air at a tremendous rate of rotation, which we can estimate very roughly based on the circular patterns of light. They indicate that each frame of the video is exposed to at least one full rotation of the camera, hence the circular trails left by the stationary track lighting.

Assuming the video was shot at 30 frames per second, this means , that the camera was rotating at a speed of at least 1,800 rpm – about twice the idle speed of most car engines.

Although the camera stops in the middle of the race track, it somehow doesn't crushed by a car. During the yellow caution, race crews pick up the camera, which is still working, presumably saving it from further damage.

Whether it could have survived anything more, however, remains in question as the uploader captioned the video “RIP GoPro “.
