Me too. The camera'd be destroyed by anything more than a slight rub.

More likely, the wind blast and closeness startled him.

On an X train from High Bridge to Raritan, we once hit an unattended camera left a wee bit close to a platform edge. All we heard was the sound of crunching.

Yet another reason why I hang onto my Bolex when filming. That thing'd put a hole in a cab car :)

Of course, if I ever lost my dad's old Nikon in such a stupid manner, he'd tear a hole in me :(
