    My first attempt at filming action, not the best but I learned a lot. I was too nervous to get any really good angles because of the water, and I had to fly all manual, no autopilot stuff (it did not like the canyon walls).

    It looks like you didn't want to fly out over the water.  Do you know that guy climbing?

    I work with both of them, ironically one is a helicopter pilot, the other is a helicopter manager and ex USFS Smoke Jumper...

    Crashing in the water would have been total loss, next time I will have some empty water bottles zip tied on (floats) and the GoPro in it's water case.
