So, What Happens When You Mount a 360 View Camera to a Porsche 911.....

It falls off in an intersection!!!!!!

Yesterday was an awesome day. The Porsche has been hibernating, but with temps in the 60's and sunshine it was time to wake her up. I pulled the cover off, checked fluid levels, tire pressure and mounted a new iFLY 360 view (270 really) camera to the front windshield. My son and I are taking a spirited drive through the country when out of nowhere a stop light appears and it is yellow, I dropped it into second and was ready to blast through it and decided (because my son was with me) not to run through it. Anyway, I come to a quick stop and there goes the camera down the windshield, across the hood and out into the intersection. A nice guy in a range rover stops over the top of the device so that no one hits it. He then gets out, picks it up and walks it over to me. The camera was fine, so we continued our spirited drive without the camera mounted.

What no video of the video camera rolling down the hood and being recovered? How can we be sure it happened!

No, no, no, you're not getting it!

Post the bouncing video or we'll call Fake News on ya!

I think the Waiver also requires that you post a pic of the car if it's a neat one, and a 911 qualifies.

Let's get to it!

The first video would be a great add to the thread- you can’t tease like this- not fair!

I agree. You need to post the video.

I think you should re-phrase your headline.
"iFly 360 Camera Is No Match For World-Class Stopping Power of Porsche Brakes."

(And, video or it didn't happen.)

Without video, is this clickbait? Do we have to scroll to a different page for the awesome footage?

Glad the Range Rover happened to stall and die just over your camera. That's really fortunate, for you. Did you help him push it aside after getting the camera back?

Video... or it didn't really happen!!

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
