Josh is a running addict. He wakes up early four to five days a week to run. In this video he faces his greatest obstacle the Brazil 135, a 135 mile race on Path of Faith in Brazil.
Completing such a massive challenge is an incredible achievement. Josh is a real inspiration.
As some of you probably noticed from the photos from Brazil 135, I wore a GoPro camera on my head for chunks of the race.
The headstrap mount was actually pretty comfortable and did a great job both on video mode and timelapse. It didn’t do so well at night, but that’s to be expected when it’s pitch black and the camera doesn’t have a flash or light (and I couldn’t figure out how to comfortably wear both the camera and a headlamp).
I borrowed the camera from some friends at Buzzfeed and after I got home, they used the footage to put together a short video of the race with some voiceover by yours truly.
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to get eaten by a Grizzly Bear? This should give you an idea.
Here is an amazing clip that I filmed with a GoPro camera that I strapped to a rock with a rubber band! The first bear to appear is an older mother, and the second is her 3-year-old cub. The bear only gently mouthed the camera, and didn’t even put a dent in it! Obviously the card was fine, and I actually used the camera many more times. I filmed this clip while I guiding a Natural Habitat Trip, but the BBC used it in the show. Anyway, check it out!!!
When using a GoPro to capture unusually close footage of grizzly bears for the Great Bear Stakeout for BBC, I had a young bear actually chew on the camera. Amazingly there was no damage to the camera! Some of this clip appears in the film Great Bear Stakeoout on BBC and Discovery Channel. Video copyright Brad Josephs.
