A GoPro just survived the drop of a lifetime, tumbling from over 3,600 feet in the sky and still rolling when it hit the ground.
The camera slipped free during a paraglider’s 60 percent collapse, plummeting to Earth while capturing the whole dizzying fall.
Miraculously, it landed in the grass without a scratch – ants swarming around it like tiny first responders.
The owner, Ulvi Ercan, only realized later that it was gone, tracked it down using flight logs, and found it beeping away like nothing happened.
