Wind topples trees, TV camera

5:26 PM Thu, Sep 29, 2005 |

While KING 5 Photographer Richard DePartee was out shooting footage for Thursday's wind story about the high winds knocking down trees in the Mukilteo area, his tripod-mounted camera caught a gust and started to topple in the middle of an interview. Watch the video to see the shocked reaction of his interview subject. Fortunately, Richard made a good catch before it hit the ground, especially considering the camera costs about $50,000. Whew!

That cameraman had a good catch! That camera looked heavy as well. I hope he wouldn't have gotten fired if it did fall, I'm not sure most people would have been strong enough to catch it.
