Have you ever wondered what it might look like from the perspective of an arrow being shot from a bow? Sure, we’ve all seen the slow-mo videos of arrows being released, but if you’re looking for something a little different, the folks at Sam and Niko at YouTube have released a video that came from a GoPro mounted onto an arrow.

Now this isn’t the first time we’ve seen such footage. You might recall that in 2015 there was a similar video in which it showed a GoPro’s perspective from being shot out of a cannon, so this is kind of the same thing, except that you replace the cannon with a bow, and the cannonball with an arrow, but regardless of medium, both offer up some pretty stunning and unique footage and perspective.

The construction process is showed off in the video above, and basically they had to figure out a way to attach the GoPro to the arrow, and secondly how to protect the GoPro from being too badly damaged once it had landed on its target, which they solved by using a floaty that they wrapped around the camera while it was attached to the tip of the arrow. In any case we won’t spoil it for you guys, so if you have a few minutes to spare, check it out in the video above.
