Camera affixed to helicopter rotor shoots trippy panorama

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6 (UPI) -- A video going viral online showcases the dizzying effect of putting a camera on a helicopter rotor for a distorted panoramic video.

The video, posted to YouTube, shows a person affix the camera to what appears to me a miniature helicopter rotor and start the flying device's engine.

The camera records a speedy panorama before the picture into a distorted video of the helicopter's surroundings.

The picture shifts and changes as the rotor slows or speeds up slightly while moving through the air.
