Underwater Gopro vs Eyeofmine Aquarium Waterproof housing test Blue Jack Dempsey

Testing out my Gopro in my fish tank against an Eyeofmine standard flat lens waterproof housing. Im going to Kauai, Hawaii this summer and will be doing a lot of snorkeling and wanted to take my Gopro for capturing fish underwater while I snorkel. Eyeofmine housing is my choice and it tested out great with my 55g Fish tank of Electric Blue Jack Dempsey cichlids and other freshwater community fish. Gopro Hero 2 1080p Medium 127 degree view settings.

Dick Hoyt, a real hero

(courtesy of Sports Illustrated) I try to be a good father. Give my kids mulligans. Work nights to pay For their text messaging. Take them to swimsuit shoots. But compared with Dick Hoyt, I suck. Eighty-five times he’s pushed his disabled son, Rick, 26.2 miles in Marathons. Eight times he’s not only pushed him 26.2 miles in a Wheelchair but also towed him 2.4 miles in a dinghy while swimming and Pedaled him 112 miles in a seat on the handlebars–all in the same day. Dick’s also pulled him cross-country skiing, taken him on his back Mountain climbing and once hauled him across the US On a bike. Makes Taking your son bowling look a little lame, right? And what has Rick done for his father? Not much–except save his life. This love story began in Winchester , Mass. , 43 years ago, when Rick Was strangled by the umbilical cord during birth, leaving him Brain-damaged and unable to control his limbs. “He’ll be a vegetable the rest of his life;” Dick says doctors told him And his wife, Judy, when Rick was nine months old. “Put him in an Institution.” But the Hoyts weren’t buying it. They noticed the way Rick’s eyes Followed them around the room. When Rick was 11 they took him to the Engineering department at Tufts University and asked if there was Anything to help the boy communicate. “No way,” Dick says he was told. “There’s nothing going on in his brain.” “Tell him a joke,” Dick countered. They did. Rick laughed. Turns out a Lot was going on in his brain. Rigged up

Night snorkeling with Mantas and GOPRO HERO 2

Night snorkeling with Mantas and GOPRO HD HERO 2 at KONA, Hawaii. GOPRO was wrist mounted. Pardon the shakiness as the water was quite choppy. I was using the standard GOPRO housing with curved lens, with dive housing the images would have been sharper. Went out on the SunlightOnWater boat and had a great time!
