GoPro camera: Modern technology has advanced our gadgets and devices to improve our experience. However, it becomes expressionless when it comes to offering a solution against severe weather conditions.
What does Erik Storm say?
Erik Storm, the owner and lead guide of Kilauea EcoGuides in Hawaii, left his GoPro camera in a small crevice on a slow crawling lava pat. The objective behind leaving the camera was to get images. But lava, coming out from the pat, engulfed his camera. He saw it consuming his camera.
However, when he got hold of his camera again, he found the SD card amazingly safe and unaffected. GoPro captured everything. Erik Storm belongs to Kilauea EcoGuides, which is a Volcanoes National Park tour group in Hawai.

“I used a geology rock hammer to pull it out of the lava and thought it was a total loss. Not only had most of the camera survived, but it had managed to record everything and was still working,” he said while explaining how he recovered his GoPro again.
According to the GoPro company, most of the cameras stop working when the operational temperatures rise above 125 F (51.7 C).
“The camera even still worked although not as well as it did before. Truly amazing it survived!,” Eric added.
