22 Crazy Perspective Photos Taken With a GoPro Camera

Chances are that if you’re into extreme sports, you already know about GoPro, the company that makes small, wearable, waterproof and shockproof cameras. Founder Nick Woodman was inspired to start a company dedicated to adventure photography after a 2002 surfing trip to Australia. Hoping to capture incredible images, he soon discovered that high quality equipment could not be obtained for reasonable prices. So, he decided to start a company where everyday people could capture professional-like shots. Hence, the company’s name “GoPro.”

GoPro’s cameras have now been used by the surfing community as well as by the skiing, bicycling, and skydiving communities. Its latest and most advanced model is the Wi-Fi enabled HD HERO3, which was released today. To show you just what this camera is capable, the company also just released an awesome 5-minute video. Warning: It’s a heart-thumping, blood-pumping video that’ll make you want to grab your bike, surfboard, kayak, or snowboard and just go!

Watch that video after enjoying these 22 photos taken at crazy perspectives by GoPro cameras. They were all shot by GoPro athletes or fans.
