That wasn't contrived at all.

When the trees go from 90 degrees at the center of the screen to 45 degrees at the edge, then yes, some serious GoPro effect is taking place. I remember watching a video of three or four guys riding along what appeared to be an insanely dangerous and incredibly narrow trail, only inches from the edge of a sheer drop of hundreds of feet. At one point they came upon a family of hikers including an old woman who was clearly over 70. The family casually took a couple steps toward the drop off and smiled while the bikers passed. By the time they were at the edge of the screen they all looked like they were in a limbo contest, bent over 45 degrees.

I'm looking forward to the Making of the Making of the YT Izzo Anime Launch Edit, possibly followed up by a Behind the scenes of the Making of the Making of the YT Izzo Anime Launch Edit.

@cueTIP: Oh golly, you dropped the f-bomb, I guess you have a stronger argument. LOL! As a country Canada can do whatever it wants. 3-5% mortality rate is how the doom and gloomers and politicians sold the weak willed people on national economic suicide in both countries. Now that they have destroyed the economies they will never even recognize the FACT that the rate is .25%. Twelve to twenty times less. And people like you will let them get away with it.

@idontknowenduro: And last week the CDC (US government) released their latest best estimate of fatality rate for those who get the virus and test positive. It's about .5%. A VERY conservative estimate would be that half the people that get the virus are asymptomatic or never get tested, that makes the fatality rate .25%. Not much different than a bad flu season, but people that have said that all along were called idiots and told they were nothing less than murderers if they questioned the lockdowns.

And, not everyone needs to be sitting straight up like they are on a bar stool. At least for the 120 bike the SA is too steep if you are going to be doing much pedaling and long days.

@unclethunder: Frank's is about flavor, add more heat if you want, I do. Eating a dozen wings is about feeling enough heat at number twelve, any idiot can make wings so hot you can't enjoy them.

As someone that grew up in Buffalo I can't help but notice, no Frank's Hot Sauce? Frank's is the reason Buffalo wings are famous. If you want more heat just add some Tobasco.

Not the worst record, not after one month and, the big one, you can't eat money. They can run the printing presses 24/7 but unless people are actually producing goods it doesn't matter at some point, soon. Maybe it won't hit home for most people for another month or two when the price of meat is astronomical and the grocery store is sold out anyway.

@ashlemon: So glad the west shipped all it's manufacturing to Asia. Now, when we really need things like face shields or masks, instead of mass producing them in the needed quantities for fractions of a penny each, we can have each one hand sewn or made individually for several dollars apiece on a cnc machine usually reserved for prototyping products that will eventually be mass produced in Asia. GO USA! Sorry, I guess I'm one of those people that sees the reality of the situation we as a country have put ourselves in over the past forty years, where the CEO of Specialized has to work his top secret Asian connections to get a hold of a product that is basically filter paper with two rubber bands stapled to it. What are intended as feel good stories only highlight the problems in a country that has decimated it's manufacturing base in favor of financialization and globalization, and the economic shit hasn't even really hit the fan yet. Bring on the downvotes.
