I asked jez to assist at todays shoot with Mitch Faber.
Mid shoot he turns up, arriving in the only way he knows how… showing off.

i was more expecting rider to be hiding in a car behind the chopper than run in from the other side and pretend he just jumped out of it LOL

A tourist had slipped on the rocks, broken his ankle and had a good cut on his leg. Some guy came and asked us to help carry him out because he was caught by the incoming tide. I was willing to grab my surfboard and paddle him around to the beach or piggy back him out but the ambo’s were already there, then “Bondi Rescue” arrived - with so many officials OH&S tactics prevailed and they decided we couldn’t even carry the stretcher over uneven ground so called in the chopper. 
It was such overkill but at least I could get back to filming.

BTW the GoPro failed but the Drift footage! Well - it was ok I guess, hey jez?

Just looked at it in true slowmo on my 50”. A bit shaky but useable.
That will happen when held on a skatey with electrical tape downer
