I bought mine for rallycross and a few cruise's with my Scion friends. But my fiancee wants to borrow it and mount it to a mop bucket, and roll it around her vet clinic to film a dog's point of view for a promotional video. I thought that was awesome.

What other fun stuff have they been used for? I remember over the winter seeing a time-lapse of someone's porch fill with snow during a big storm. Links and/or descriptions of other clips?

I'm going to fashion a harness for mine and stick it on my two year old and see what happens. I also intend on strapping it to my car once some good storms roll through and getting a POV, or perhaps sticking it to the window of my apartment. Also have an RC body all setup to mount it to so I can get RC action shots when I go out for drift shenanigans. And then once the wife comes home.....

Yeah, that crossed my mind too. But then, I'd be in the damn thing also, and even I don't want to see that.

Yeah, that stops me too. Well, that and the lack of a wife.

I'm thinking of strapping mine to my cat, just to see what the little bastard does all night while I'm at work.

You need a helmet for shenanigans? You are either doing it wrong, or doing it WAY right.

Either way, rock on!

Cut out the mop bucket and go straight for the source.

You could actually mount it to a dog. One of my friends did this to find out where his dog was getting through the fence.

I tried my WheelyKing RC truck yesterday when I got bored. Not bad, but quite bouncy as expected.

I would get a memcard full of the cat trying to scrape the GoPro off under every low object it could find.

I'd get a card full of mine just flopping on his side and crying because there's something on him.
