The Incredible Underwater World of Singer Island, Riviera & Palm Beach
This video was created by simply snorkeling and freediving the waters of Singer Island with a handheld GoPro Hero 3. This world of spectacular marine biodiversity can be explored without complicated equipment and contains many wonders of the natural world, including angelfish, parrotfish, porcupinefish, squid, tangs, corals and the majestic spotted eagle ray! Remember to swim within your limits, stay off of the coral, enjoy every moment this beautiful place gifts you and always leave it better than you found it!

Fun Ferrari 488 GTB at Hallett Motor Racing Circuit
Просмотров 1745 лет назад
After moving to Tulsa about two years ago, a trip to Hallett was inevitable. Finally, after a very generous birthday gift, I was able to join the folks at Xtreme Xperience and take some laps in the Ferrari 488 GTB! While I have had experience in SCCA autocross and as an SCCA driver instructor, these were my first laps on this track and my first time ever behind the wheel of a supercar (with the...

Sir Jackie Stewart dubbed this 13 mile race track the "Green Hell," however, it was pure heaven on this Tuesday, September 29th, 2015. My wife and I won airfare to Frankfurt, and never having been to Europe together, we inevitably chose our first destination to be the small town of Nurburg for some laps on this wholly unique and awe inspiring race course. Having never driven the Nordschleife be...

Ricketts Glen State Park: Tour de Force
Просмотров 26310 лет назад
Ricketts Glen is a must hike park for an easy and astounding audio/visual tour de force. The Falls Trail Loop (one which we began on the Highland Trail) takes you by 21 named waterfalls ranging from 10' to 80' high. They become so frequent that your mouth simply stays open, lacking the pause between awe-struck moments to close. Enjoy the splendor of the trail in this video tour taken on July 29...
Franconia Ridge Loop Full: Old Bridle Path Ascent

The crown jewel of our honeymoon hikes, Franconia Ridge was stunning on August 1, 2013. Enjoy this tour of the entire loop to find what awaits you or revisit the journey if you were unable to record it. Counter to popular suggestion, we ascended via the Old Bridle Path Trail and Greenleaf Trail and descended along Falling Waters Trail. We highly recommend taking this route as it provides many b...

On 1/19/2014, a day that saw snow up top as a front went through and then some rain, the sky turned beautiful and I made my first jump thanks to my wife's awesome birthday gift! What a joy, what a blast! We jumped from about 9500 feet and clocked a max speed of 135mph (thanks Google MyTracks).

This was our hike up Algonquin Peak in the Adirondacks, NY during our New England honeymoon on July 30, 2013. Google MyTracks recorded our roundtrip as being 9.04 miles with a max elevation of just over 5,000 feet and a total time, including a break at the top and some in between, of about 7 hours. Footage was taken with a GoPro Hero 3 Silver Edition and edited in Adobe Photoshop CS6. This hike...
Blue Heron Bridge East Side Dive
Просмотров 11 тыс.11 лет назад
This dive was on June 15, 2013 in West Palm Beach, Florida at high tide (1:40pm). In this video we explore a dock on the west side of Singer Island, just north of the small portion of Blue Heron bridge. Fish species that you will see include: pork fish, sergeant major, barracuda, spadefish, Spanish hogfish, French angelfish, red lionfish (invasive), blue headed wrasse, parrot fish, horseshoe cr...
great video, fun music!
I think you're right to take Old Bridle path up and Falling Waters down. One reason--you might get your feet wet near the Falling Waters trailhead. Better to get your feet wet when you're almost done with the loop, rather than get them wet right at the start of it.
Shoutout to that dad carrying his freaking kid all the way up there on his back, man. The kid probably won't even remember that!
That music😩 I'd rather hear heavy breathing and just ...nature sounds
Thank you albert & young lady Greatly appreciated😊
Awesome video.
Thanks! It was a fun dive. We have since moved to Tulsa, OK and boy, do we miss the water! I guess that is what vacations are for:)
Awsome
How long did it take you guys, ballpark?
My knees won't allow me to do this all in one day. I'm going to have to go up Bridal, stay at the hut overnight, throw smoores to the hiking god, go up to Lafayette in the AM, cross the traverse to Little Haystack, and slide my butt down Falling Waters......to a hearse waiting in the parking lot. Wish me luck!!!
At the 7:41 mark I had to kill the flute......too high pitched for my ears........ouch!
The falling waters trail is gorgeous with all the waterfalls.......however.......since the falls are so tall and BIG.....it sprays a mist over the trail in just the wrong places: boulders, rocks that make this trail very tricky to navigate going down. I did it going up and told myself to never do it going down no matter what time of year or weather conditions. Winter? Don't even THINK about it. yikes!!
I have to agree. The descent down Falling Waters Trail is much more difficult than it appears from this video.
great vid! you had a great day for it too, I did it yesterday, ascended the same way. Unbelievable experience, thanks for the vid
I'm doing this hike with my cousin in a week, but we're going to do the reverse and come down old bridal but we were thinking is this doable for a day hike and how long was it start to finish?
Hi Mike, I used the app Google My Tracks to record the hike and it stated the distance to be 9.14 miles and we took about 8hr and 50min to complete. This included many stops to enjoy the views. It can definitely be done as a day hike and many people do it that way. Enjoy the trip, it is a wonderful trail!
yes I was snorkeling the bridge and snorkel trail for the first time last weekend. I am in the process of getting my scuba gear back in order since the view is much more pleasant under than above water. thanks for the advice. maybe sometime we could get together and u could be my guide.
+Robert Storey: That would be awesome! We may have to wait a while though, I am on the West coast of Florida and my wife and I just had our first child, so the diving will have to be postponed for a bit. I am jealous that you will be out there, West Palm is a beautiful area for snorkeling and diving! If you have not checked out the Riviera Beach Reef on Singer Island, you should. It can be dove or snorkeled easily and is accessible from shore. Lots of tropical fish hang out there and I have seen a nurse shark as well.
where exactly is this on the east side ?
+Robert Storey: If you look at the bridge using Google Maps with the Earth layer on, I believe that it is either the second or third dock North of the bridge on the East side of the waterway. Another item of interest is perhaps a 100ft West of this dock in the middle of the waterway: a sunken sailboat that has a buoy attached to the mast so that boats do not strike it. You can spot the buoy from the surface and navigate to it after setting a bearing (or just swim over on the surface and drop down). Don't forget your dive flag:) After diving the West side bridge and diving the East side bridge, I personally find the docks far more interesting. The bridges themselves get VERY crowded. The East side bridge is very dark as well, meaning there is not much coral or color. With so many divers in the water on a prime day, looking for all the little hidden critters is less rewarding to me than simply being surrounded by beautifully lit water and tons of fish. You can find cool species anywhere too. If you have not been on the West side bridge, I would recommend snorkeling it. I went during high tide and I seem to recall an average depth of 10ft - 15ft. Being on SCUBA seemed pointless to me. Have a great dive!
ruclips.net/video/fBGEAKzurIs/видео.html Better color than my video i think
what did you use to take your video?
+JeRadical03 A GoPro Hero 3 Silver Edition. I did tweak the color balance in Adobe Photoshop afterwards. Always feel free to ask me any questions you like. Have a good one!
Great share! Thank you! My wife and I are planning this hike this fall. We're sold on your choice of direction and the inherent benefits that you listed.
+MrMCBvideo Absolutely our pleasure! Please let us know how your hike goes! I have never seen the north in fall (being born in Tampa, FL), it should be astounding. If you get video or photos, that would great to see as well. Good luck!
Is it OK to kill Lionfish in this park or not
Yes
The blennies have a collection going on for funding a few hits on the lionfish.
Why the fuck did you not kill the lion fish...
DO NOT EAT THEM! I have to retract my statement about dining on lionfish, although it was the recommendation of NOAA. Since NOAA's campaign to make them into seafood, tests have shown, "... of nearly 200 lionfish ... more than a quarter exceed federal levels for a toxin that can cause ciguatera, a potentially dangerous fish food poisoning" that can cause diarrhea, vomiting, fatigue and neurological problems including painful tingling and reversed temperature sensitivity.
You are absolutely right, they are an invasive species that eat both native fish and crustaceans, harming both local ecosystems and fisheries. For anyone interested in what to do when they spot one, do a search for "reef.org lionfish program." I would have either captured it or killed it, but I did not have the means to do either. Authorities have suggested capturing and eating them, so if you see one, bon appetit!
Should have killed the Lionfish. That thing can really hurt the native fish there.
Awesome, have a great dive! This was a portion of our first dive at Blue Heron. We tried to hit a bunch of different spots around the east side and we stumbled upon this dock. It was pretty much our favorite part of the dive since there seemed to be such a large number and diversity of fish. Our next visit will be to do the west side for the first time. Thanks for the comment and happy diving! Oh, let us know how your dive goes!
i was gonna say, none of this looks familiar and i'm out there all the time especially under the east bridge. Nice video, i'll be checking it out monday!
