Offshore Powerboat racing from a helicopter and I've got video
I dug up this old video I shot at the 1994 Offshore Powerboat World championships in Key West Florida and made a short video for youtube.
There was a race on Wednesday and I rode in a helicopter for that and then sat on a boat for Sundays race.
They took the doors of the helicopter and I put on a harness so I could move about and hang out the door if needed.
Flying low along side the race boats at about 150 mph is probably the coolest thing I've ever done.
