Snowmaggeddon 2014 rescue video I made

Post by toolman »

Friend of mine in a 2013 Jeep Rubicon went out by himself and got buried in a hole....just as the biggest snowstorm in decades was heading in. So me and a couple buddies (who also have built jeeps, but they brought trucks) went to go rescue our pal in distress. The guys drinking beer were not driving. ;)

It's a mostly uneventful video and the rescue was fast and clean...but it was my first edit job using my new go-pro black I got for christmas...and the music is my old band from high school and I'm on drums..circa 1990.

Love your thoughts on everything ya see. Had maybe 15-20 minutes editing for the first time using it, take 5 minutes to do it now that I know it better.



Here is a pic of the Jeep I rescued.

Nighty you know I'm a Steelers fan right?? Black and yellow?? ;)

I would not own a yellow, bright green, or purple colored car typically......but some vehicles are supposed to be a odd or loud color. I am also particular about the hues...I would not own a green jeep like the color above...but I appreciate the loudness of that particular green... especially on his Jeep. If I bought a new jeep today I would not get the yellow they offer. Porsche has a real nice yellow and I like the new Camaro in yellow...but not so much the Challenger yellow.

and I have a yellow coat so I can be easily seen if a helicopter has to come find me. :D

yellow comes out wonderful in pictures of both high and low quality. 8-)

we pronounce it YELLOooo.....not yella. :D

I like the one on the left....not so much on the right.

LOL I had a slight hunch Tool. As for the newer colors on Jeeps I really like that COD green they came out with. Or maybe it was called Modern Warfare I do not remember but it looks good. I really want a four door in that color sitting on 35's w/black wheels.
