Hula Cam- GoPro Hula Hoop

You might get dizzy watching this...



Ever wondered what it would be like to be a hula hoop? Wonder no more!
Music is Paper Moon by Booka Shade.

UPDATE: This video is getting a bit more attention than I ever thought it would and I'm getting asked lots of questions, so please read this first if you require more info!

This was filmed using a GoPro HD Hero camera, which is designed for action filming such as surfing, motorcross etc. It can be attached to your helmet or equipment, therefore it's very small and light, which is how I can still hula hoop with it on my hoop- it's a bit more difficult but possible!

It has a wide angle lens of 180 degrees, which creates this odd effect.

I personally don't get dizzy watching this, but apparently some do so please don't get cross- just don't watch it if you suffer from motion sickness and don't like spinning in circles!
