Chicken Powered Steadicam - Smarter Every Day

Hey, it's me, Destin. You remember I made the chicken head tracking video? The reason the chicken's head stays stable is something called the vestibulo-ocular reflex. One thing that kept popping up is people always had the suggestion of making a camera stabilization unit with a chicken.

I waited two years hoping it would happen, but nobody ever did it. So, I have spent the last 30 minutes or so trying to figure out how to attach a camera to the top of a chicken without hurting the chicken. Alright, this $10 video recorder better have work recorded. Okay, I got to get this rooster off of me.

[Applause]

[Music]

Okay, so this is chicken cam version 2.0. This is a much bigger rooster. Look at the spurs; hence the safety glasses. But anyway, this guy can do pretty good. He's got a real long neck, and I've discovered that you got to get him calm to kind of go with the flow.

Chicken camera stabilization. Okay, now I've changed the phase of the camera to look straight ahead at the chicken.

[Applause]

The closer my hand is, the more the answer is yes. My wife's going to kill me; that's what I'm talking about.
