And the Oscar ®🏆for "most beautiful car video filmed in my backyard" goes to ...
I produced this fuggin shoot! I was THERE for every second of it - and STILL... the talent of @mastro.media in both capture + EDIT made me wonder if I overslept a morning session or something. Wow .
Driver / Car Owner @lewisliebert scored a 3-pointer against " # guys who can afford those cars never know how to drive them " . I was driving the camera car in the head-on shots - I`d JUST SEEN that morning that a top condition special CGT similar to this, went for over 6 million at auction , and then Lewis was flat.the.fuck.out head on passing us with less than 6 in between our side view mirrors. Over and over. 🫡
What fun - and especiallyrewarding when I get to see final product like this.
Our father Siggi used to beam with such pride and joy - writing big fat income tax checks. Unwavering appreciation to America for saving him from Auschwitz , and saving the world.
My brother and I had a love for country instilled in us from birth and we`re proud to support Veterans [* remember : no veterans , no America ] and law enforcement and first responders who keep us safe here, at home.
Seeing people of EVERY AGE , unashamed , unapologetic, and unequivocal in their American Pride is inspiring , fantastic. No country is perfect - nothing in real life is perfect - but that should never interfere with the celebration of greatness , and continual evolution.
(* until all three cameras were rolling and I gave the signal ☝️)
How we felt : awash in patriotism , pride, and appreciation for our beloved Nation on its, on our, 250th !
What We Learned : Even a mile before the entrance , that entire mountain range is protected by the US Park Police , and the same restrictions apply.
We apologized , cleaned up, respectfully accepted our summonses + fines , and earnestly thanked the responding office for not impounding everything, as he could have. Leniency solely because it was 5:28 a.m., and he saw only love in our hearts.
What Else We Learned : our national monuments are so well protected - it`s like a movie . Sensors picked up my little toy drone instantly , and lit up every camera on the mountain. When the kind officer responded he already had the video of us in his car from the dispatcher 🥹
[ In compliance w/the officer`s directive - all footage taken BY the drone was deleted. Drones are NOT permitted in National Parks. Unfortunately I was too busy fiddling with my drone on the approach road to see the three signs specifically stating that. Yes, my fine was bigger than Pete`s , but once again far less than could have been assessed.]
Thank you, USPP , with our sincere apology once again. .... and as Pete said : 🇺🇸HAPPY 🇺🇸 BIRTHDAY 🇺🇸 AMERICA 🇺🇸
Some of my jet skis think they`re motorcycles. This is one of my two `07 @seadoo 3D`s
It also has a seat you can attach to make it into a go-kart. You can think of it as the first, and only (bc it didn`t sell so well) Trans jet ski.
I don`t like to brag, but I was of course an early Trans jetski activist . That`s why I bought two. (*And also in case the other jet skis shunned them)
This is a raw feed from the camera you can see me pause in the middle to fiddle with my shorts pole . But don`t linger on it that`s weird.
Hope you had a nice Sunday too. I have a cool new Italian motorcycle riding neighbor !! But more on this later.
