A GoPro that keeps on clicking!

The below pictures tell it all. EXCEPT...

That after finding the GoPro, my next two targets were RINGS, one stainless
steel and the other tungsten carbide. Also I have spent about $35 on a case
with new (clear) lens and adapters so my grandson can use the GoPro.

These three targets made for a fun evening as a few bits of trash were the only
other targets recovered.

From looking at the last picture on the SD card, my best guess is that the GoPro
was underwater for almost a year and moved about a quarter mile. Yes the battery
was dead, but a 4 hour charge brought it back to life. Long live the GoPro.

The GoPro had never been registered and no info in the pictures helped in IDing
the original owner.

Congratulations on the very nice and expensive find!
 

That's awesome congrats
 

You should notify the company that sells the protective cases. They could use your story for some GREAT advertising. Might even buy the pictures off you.

They come with the GoPro. As far as I know it's their own case. I'm surprise the hinge pin didn't break. That's usually what fails first on the ones I've found. Nice find!
 

Seems like there's more and more GoPro's being found. Glad you got one! :occasion14:
