I wonder how many views that has had based solely on the 'thumbnail'.. It definitely gets your attention in a facebook feed. :D Great marketing and the video is well done for sure. :)

The ending is where it fails and falls short, The Guy should have touched the baby and ended up in some funky 2or3 year old's dream world, :? With weird Big Birds, and Cookie monsters to battle with!

Now that's an ending! :mrgreen:

The ending was weak, The Hero just battled 10 to 20 bad guys & a dog, Jumped over and through
many obstacles, and yet he couldn't reach the baby in time?
If he had an obstacle like a coffee table or anything that made it harder for him to reach the kid in time, that would have worked as an ending,But having his arm and hand just hanging in limbo for longer than needed ruined the ending.
I fast cut to black would have even worked, but not that over extended ending.

JMHO!

Okay I didn't pay attention to just how many bad guys, but hey does that really matter with that terrible ending? :P

FYI, I'm just having some creative fun.

This Vimeo footage Is the worst case of brain drained violent crap I have seen. A shame for cinematographers. Product of a sick mind.

Simple minded, keeps simple people, well... simple minded. 8-)

From a technical point of view, it is actually kind of cool.

I thought it was a good proof of concept. The GoPro helmet mount has a place in action scenes for sure.
