Television and Youtube are flooded with wild videos of things that are incredible, super cool or horrific. There just happened to be someone there with a video camera lucky enough to capture it. This is only a small fraction of incredible things that happened which did not get get on tape.

Was there ever a time that you saw or were part of something that you wish was captured for all time on video?

I don't really do anything. So, I don't really have a lot of things happen to me.
But, I'm pretty sure there were tons in Jr. High and I just don't remember them.
Patrick, Eric, Bryton, Stupid-Ex-Boyfriend-who-shall-not-be-mentioned-by-name, Lindsay and I. Ah! What great fun we had!!

I used to have a Honda 900F Super Sport. I usually picked up a co-worker on my way into work. One day, as we rounded the last corner before the parking lot, i wacked the throttle. The front wheel unintentially came 5 feet off the ground. My I saw my rider's legs fly high over my head after his feet flew off the pegs. Fortunately I had the presence of mind to throttle back slowly and bring the front down gently. I appoloagized to him up and down for doing that but he said: "That was kind of fun, would have been better if I was ready for it." Dang I wish I could have seen that, it must of been hysterical. It's the only major wheely I ever did (on that bike).

Happens all the time for me >.<

Once, we (friends and I) were riding bikes and we would ride downhill and hit the brakes so we would skid into a very small empty lot that was at the bottom of the hill. And there are wooden columns on the end of the lot. I asked someone if i could use their bike. It was a small bike. I rode downhill, came up to the lot, and i get ready to hit the brakes. However, my feet go forwards instead of backwards so I ended up pedaling forward, increasing my speed. I froze in fear realizing i was gonna crash into one of those wooden columns. I smack into it and FLY off the bike. Luckily I was not really hurt =D As soon as I was done, I sat on the car and said to my friend: "I wish I a camera. I wanted to see that from a different view!"

Yes. But I can never remember what it was afterwards. I wish I had video cameras and a digital camera in my eye and that my brain was a huge hard drive with limitless memory and that I could plug in a USB cable from my head to the computer and show everyone.

It's usually just little things I'd like to capture when I don't have a camera on me, even things like the way the clouds are formed or seeing a squirrel jump from one tree to the next, I wish I could keep them and then have a slidshow of pointless happy memories. :D

Probably the time when my friends and i were camping and we were fooling around with the video camera and an insane meteor fell in the background and was like 100 feet away.

No just kidding, that didn't really happen. My life isn't that extraterrestrially exciting. ;P

My digital camera has a recorder function. We used it to record the services for glyph's late grandmother. I have no intention of posting it anywhere, because it's a private family thing.

However, I was giving considerable thought to recording a thunderstorm with it the next time the opportunity arises.

Aside from hilarious and embarrassing moments between friends and I...

One night my friend was taking me home and we were chatting about mundane things when a bright light flashed in the sky. We stopped talking and saw bright green shooting stars. Their trails were long and they lasted for a long time. It was AWESOME. I wish I had captured it on film. It was really bizarre because of the color/length/frequency. We went to see if there was a scheduled meteor shower and there wasn't, just a really freaky (and cool) moment.

XD That sounds like something I would say if I had done that.

Today's amazingly bad yet awesome play we put on. There were just some of the greatest backstage conversations and jokes, and the play itself was hilarious when we all had the inside jokes running through our heads and me messing up so bad. Hahahahaha, we should have really done a backstage camcorder maneuver.
