I suspect you'll find this has been posted a few times already...


some fairly old canon camera stuff, canon lenses, Manfrotto "thingy", and an M5, also an M6 that has had a 720nm filter bolted onto the sensor:

I can't stop laughing at this every time I see it. The photographers reaction is awesome.

He acts so cool afterwards taking a shot, but I bet his trousers needed washing afterwards :-)

I bet he has seen cars bounce off that before. That would make him crazy, to think he might stand there to get the carnage.

Holy crap! He either has nerves of steel or is just plain retarded. I can't imagine what that would be like. Twenty bucks says he called his insurance agent afterwards just to double check that his life insurance was paid up!


I need a catchy sig? Ehhh, I've got nothing...

Probably not the first time that happened to him, he was standing behind the barricade for a reason.

Coming at him it was just a race car, going away, it was so much more!
