Amazing 360-degree video of two paragliders flying a half a mile up

in #paragliding7 years ago

I went flying over the weekend and as well as getting a couple of hours of great airtime I was lucky enough to be flying with a friend who was rocking (well dangling actually) a Rylo 360-degree video camera. He put together some amazing footage of our flight as we fly in close proximity, rode a thermal or two up higher, and just generally floated around all over the sky enjoying the day.

The 360-degree video is best viewed with a VR-headset which gives an amazing perspective - look up, look down, look all around! Or if you're on a laptop or desktop you can scroll the image around:

Alternatively, you can check out the regular fixed perspective version which is nice but no-cigar when you've seen "the real thing". Seriously, if you've ever wondered what it is to fly like a bird a half mile above the ground the 360-degree version is for you.

Hey nice view! That adrenaline rush must be amazing. By the way, nice to see you back posting on Steemit :).
