No different than talking on the cell phone while driving. Some can handle it and others can't. All the videos are great by the way.

Think of it this way what if I did hit someone?? I guess it would save the taxpayers money. Another Nevada illegal that the great Harry Reid can't control walking out in the middle of a busy street. I love your comments keep them coming. Awww baby need a bottle waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.


You lack common sense. Your 'I didn't hit anyone or anything' attitude is similar to that of people who drive drunk. If they make it home without hurting anyone or hitting anything, it is okay as far as they are concerned.

Self-imposed impaired driving is not having a "better idea then you". It is what one would expect to see in one of the Jackass movies.


So when you drink a coffee, talk on a phone, eat, and pick your nose you are a distracted driver. Holding a small camera requires no eyes being removed from the road since you do not have to look through anything. Typical liberal Obama views that made this country into what it is today.


For some strange reason, I could see you trying to do all of those things at the same time. When driving, you are in control of a potentially deadly weapon. You can drive responsibly, or you can drive irresponsibly. You take misplaced pride in driving irresponsibly. Everything you mention can be cited as driving distracted and ticketed in many jurisdictions - except for picking your nose, unless you can't find your finger without staring at it for a while. Not having to look through a view finder doesn't mean you aren't looking at the camera while you are aiming it, no matter how small it is.

None of those are things you are doing to distract yourself. That is the point.

The point I am trying to make is what a asshole this prick is to anyone who disagrees with him and he always says the same shit. Loyd is a bully, Frankie is a bully so I am going to delete my posts so i dont look like a ass. I will admit the videos are nice but I agree with the others that he needs to be responsible when he drives. There are enough idiots as it is out there that we don't need anyone else killed.

I seen countless news reports and have actually seen people that have been hit out there. Hang out on the strip enough and you will see.

Wouldnt surprise if he drives drunk too.

Brad,

Did you really take all that video while driving, or did your wife/girlfriend do it? Either way, without condoning or condemning, that is some excellent video work! I have the same Kodak Playsport camera as you, and I think I too may try to upload some videos of my next trip.

It's amazing how the Fiesta can charge $4.99 for such a large buffet, and yet the MGM charges $20 for a hamburger. It really makes you wonder what the food is worth, and how much these Las Vegas casinos pay for the food they serve you. I've never been to the Fiesta in Henderson or Santa Fe Station, and it was nice to see those shots.

It was nice to see the inside of the Gold and Silver Pawn Shop. Most posters just say the line was too long, and they didn't bother going in. It's amazing how a TV show can make such big stars out of regular people.

I really enjoyed your video Trip Report! I know how hard it is to put together, and appreciate all the work you've done.

Ed



Thanks Ed,

I did take almost all of the video myself. There were only a couple times when I had someone else hold the camera to get myself in it. The Kodak Playsport is great. I think the video quality for the price and size can't be beat.

I walked right in without a line to the Gold and Silver Pawn shop. The place was very small and I was not impressed. I think the show hold the camera at different angles to ad to the size of the shop. The Fiesta and Santa Fe casinos are excellant buffets for the money. It's a shame that most visitors to Vegas are stuff on the strip to some of the worst service and crappy overpriced food. I love the locals casinos!

People complaining about holding that little thing? You're right,it's no bigger than a cup of coffee. Cant believe not saying thanks for the work, instead criticizing on taking video with that tiny thing.

JOHN


Thanks John,

Yes the camera is lighter then my cell phone. It is very easy to travel with.. I usually have the case hooked to my belt so its easy to take out and put back in.

Thanks Silverbeard,

I actually feel less distracted holding the camera then talking on a cell phone. I guess it depends who is on the other end of the phone.. lol
