Lost GoPro Recovered With Homebuilt ROV

- July 12 2013 I lost my Go-Pro whilst using it for the first time. After a few unsuccessful attempts by divers to locate it, I decided to build my own ROV to find and retrieve the missing camera.
2.5 months later I found it after 4 days of searching! This video features both the footage from the Go-Pro and the ROV's camera.
I do not own the music tracks featured, they belong to the following talents:
Foo Fighters - "My Hero" from the album "The colour and the shape"
Massive Attack - "Teardrop" from the album "Mezzanine"
30 Seconds to Mars - "Kings and Queens" from the album "This is War"
Enjoy...
Seriously dude, you gotta post more of this fine piece of machinery!!! That’s some good work!
A certain testament to how well the waterproofing and waterproof case working superbly.
Fantastic! And what a great opportunity to build a ROV, best ever excuse in the world. This, is what I will use for my wifey when I accidentally 'drop' something hehe.
Thanks for sharing!

nice recovery! i'm almost willing to bet building the ROV cost as much or more than a new camera would have cost, lol.
I lost it when you when you got into a turfwar with the crab. Great work dude!
Way to go man ! Great effort.
It must have felt like you found the lost island of Atlantis.
Oh, and great choice of music on the first part, really appropriate :).
Very good work man, such a good-ending story, congrats!
once you built the rov, the harassment of various sea creature was a must :)
Fantastic effort, well done.
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
perfect song... luckily you stopped right there and didn't add 'Yellow Submarine' to the vid ;-)
very good video , thanks
Kool as Flooks. How much wid a hire be ta scran for lost creels n stuff. Well Done That Man.
great video :v ur awesome ...
Unbelievable tekkers
Could u show how u made it
This is such a great video. I'm part of a group working on an ROV build. I'll have to add Go Pro rescue on the possible mission list as well. Thanks for sharing your adventure!
Lyric:. "there goes my hero..". ROTFLMAO!!
XtremeBudgetMusician lmao
You built that rig, just to find the go pro... are you sure you didn't just do it for the challenge? lol
Collegiate Match Fishing They say the biggest inspirations for people to do awesome things is to face an unprecedented trial in life!
Harassment Rover Hey I seen a 3 or 4 ft. Wide starfish at the bottom of the ocean floor with my Sony Actioncam. It was scary looking.
Very nice video. I lost my phantom with gimbel and gopro and I gave up. it was in the woods and I'm not even sure wheread and flew over the areas i suspected it was for hours and looked at it on bigscreen. Never found it. I like this thing you built. What is your background? It is very nice. I want to buy it. How much would you sell it for?
You should put a tracker on any expensive stuff only cost 50$ help you like 2000$
Hell yeah dude!! Glad to know that there is someone else out there crazy enough to build something to go after a lost GoPro underwater like we did!!
This is why you should always tie a float to your cameras in deep water. Do you have any plains? I like this design.
I've been searching for this video ever since i saw it the first time and youtube happens to recommend it to me 8 years ago from when i saw it i hope youtube isnt warning me of losing my gopro and instead telling me to make an RC submarine
As a fellow cinematographer and film constructor I must say the choice of music "There Goes My Hero" was a golden song selection for a video about losing your GoPro HERO camera. 5 Stars from me = Like, Subscribe, and a comment!
You didn't find an air rifle down there as well by any chance? I lost one in Catfirth years back when I worked for Wadbister Salmon :)
It'll be a baa o roost noo! lol
Possibly the best advert for Go-Pro... ever! A+ for determination as well. The biggest take-away from this video though, is that Hermit Crabs are fast as fuck! haha.
so it looks like you used bilge pumps with props for propulsion. What was the camera? Also what was that sensor next to the camera?
beatifull ROV ,where i can find the plan to built that? excuse my english :)
Whats the controller box made of and how does it work with the ROV?
ironic song there! ;)
Awesome video dude! Such a happy tale.
The music is good for the video because go pro hero :)
cloudy waters
"There's goes my go pro hero, watch him as he sinks"
GREAT vid !!! Can I ask you what did you make the camera from and how did you make it waterproof to such a press ? thanks a lot, I always wanted to make one of these, but I'm a doctor, the electric circuits are too much for me.. I could make all of it, but making the joysitck a proper "operating-knob" is imposssible for me.. tell me when you'll be selling yours ;-)
I like music on tis video GoPro :)
great job!
Love it, seems to be working very very well!
How do you control your depth? Is the ROV always positively buoyant and the prop spinning to keep it at the right depth?
awesome. nice build.
Cool vid :-)
that is amazing! i thought id done some cool rc projects before i saw this. give urself a pat on the back!
I needed 2 damn weeks to find my camera
Absolutely brilliant!
Amazing! Well in :)
