Starting this week is our new article series "Five of our favourite" in which our employees can write articles on almost any subject they want.
This is a place where we can share our favourite football players, teams, favourite cars, films, programs, holidays and anything else besides.
Not just a few of our favourite things but 5 of them!
If you have any ideas for a #fiveofourfavourite article, please let us know in the comments and we'll see what we can do!
Our newly promoted Marketing Manager, Nicholas Lake, starts us off with five amazing GoPro videos and a few more that we've made ourselves recently!
In this episode of #FiveOfOurFavourite we have selected our fav GoPro videos for your viewing pleasure. From jumping of roofs to scantily clad mermaids swimming with whales. Got a better video? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
#1 - Epic Roof Jump
In this video Ethan Swanson jumps between two building and slides majestically down the side of the opposite roof perfectly onto a spiral staircase. It's quite worrying to see the result of the slide on his trousers at the end!
#2 - Roof Top Ping Pong
Two brothers battle it out on top of a roof to claim the rooftop table tennis championship. But how do they get the table on top of the building and would you got for the smash to win the game? Answers on a postcard.
#3 - Space Jump
Felix Baumgartner stands 24 miles above the earth in a capsule with 5 GoPro cameras strapped to him. Watch him break the sound barrier and make history. #RatherYouThanMeMate
#4 - Fireworks On A Drone
High above West Palm Beach in Florida, John Stiglingh flies a DJI Phantom 2 Drone with a GoPro Hero 3 Silver attached. The images captured of these 4 July fireworks celebrations are the bomb! Make sure to watch in HD.
#5 - Go Karting
Hold on to your hats as we hop onto Joey Langano helmet as he makes his way through the star studded Motoplex Little 600 charity Go Kart race. If you've not had a go at go Karting before you'll be suprise at the speeds you get up to.

#6 - Our very own #DaveTheRave
Dave Smith Manager of our Winchmore Hill Branch goes walkabout at Summer Soulstice 8 Music Alldayer and captures the true vibe of the event. *All footage was filmed in front of a live audience and we did not ask Dave to do this!!!
#7 - Aerial view of Summer Soulstice 8
The Soulstice Crew send up a DJI Phantom 2 Drone above the Summer Soulstice Charity Music Festival. The Aerial views give a unique view of the event that had never been seen before.

A future #fiveofourfavourite GoPro Video!
We are really looking forward to using the GoPro on 14 September where a group of our staff will be willingly jumping from a plane at 13,500ft as they perform a tandem Skydiving all in aid of Isabel Hospice Cancer Care. To help them to raise enough money to job with a parachute please visit their JustGiving page: justgiving.com/teams/JJsSkydive
