"Oops" — a 10-minute montage of camera-dropping.

By Chris Beckman. Now I know what to do with my digital camera that has a busted viewfinder display...

... just turn on the video, throw it around, download, edit, and repeat until it won't record anymore.

The pool oops was pretty fun, but i had to stop at the Ostrich bit. I'm sorry, but nothing will top that.

I have a Sony DSC-T9 that hit the porch hard on ice, and now works fine but only focuses out to about a half inch distance.

I'll use it for ant studies or something.

I was expecting to see Steve McGarrett on the balcony.

That's awesome! Great editing. My favorite bit is, "Now I'm gong to toss my mom's camera into the air. She's gonna be so pissed." The camera sails off higher than an ordinary toss could be over to another high rise apartment, crosses a balcony, smashes into somebody else's interior wall, turns into a roller coaster. Brilliant!

This montage makes me feel so much better about my own klutziness. I laughed, I cried, I lost my breath, etc. Great find.
