GoPro is sustained by an odd psychological phenomenon: We watch their videos and can't help but imagine ourselves doing comparably-cool things. "Yeah, I might not be [pro athlete], but I [did a cool thing] at [location]. I should get a GoPro and make an edit for Instagram," think thousands of viewers.
Only after dropping hundreds on the newest action-cam do we realize the sad truth: We're not nearly good enough at our respective sports to make an edit worth showing our immediate family members, much less the internet. The GoPro goes into a cupboard, not to be seen for half a decade. Years later, we'll watch another hype video, get stoked, dust it off, shake our heads, and decide that we need the newest edition.
