Okay, this just amused me to no end. You might need a facebook account to see this image, but I think it is worth it!

These are photos from the SCAD DSLR Hybrids group. The first one has to be seen :)

Outside of that, some neat shots of DSLRs in action (looks like 5D and 7D) and some nice frames at the end.

I want to see someone using a Scarlet like this since it should be possible! :)

Wow.. I am not sure if that is awesomely brilliant or insanely stupid..

Well on one hand, if he were to trip and fall, he might be protected. The camera sure won't be! :)

Well .. I watched the showreel - I gotta go with Awesomely brilliant.. There is no way I would get on a rope bridge with anything else.. Hats off... er.. Helmets Off!

Just watched the showreel myself! :) That rope bridge was crazy small! I'd be afraid to be on there with a 5D, it's heavy! Rather have my 7D which is lighter! Hehe.

Looks like the underwater stuff was shot with a different camera. Still some pretty nice shots!

This link was posted a while back and says it was shot using a "custom face mounted rig". Maybe something similar to above. Who knows, but it is a neat video: http://vimeo.com/6540668

I think there's also a video somewhere of a guy with a helmet mounted RED ONE.
