If you’re currently hunkered down inside your home, endlessly scanning the news for glimmers of hope amid this COVID-19 pandemic, we’d just like to remind you that you are most certainly not alone. We’re all in this together, and we’re all adapting to this one day at a time.
And while self-isolation is certainly putting most peoples’ patience to the ultimate test, there are some individuals who are flexing their creativity. One such person who marvelously showcased his creative capability is Philipp Klein Herrero.
Reaching over 500,000 views in just three days, Klein Herrero’s 1-minute GoPro HERO7 edit of himself freeskiing while stuck indoors is one of the most imaginative takes on this whole isolation period we’ve seen so far.
“Just before the current health situation locked us in, I was about to go Freeriding with my family,” Klein Herrero stated on his YouTube channel. “It was supposed to be the big adventure of the year, the one I had been eagerly awaiting for a year. Therefore, the lockdown had me thinking about skiing the whole time, so I started to think how I could ski without leaving my living room.”
The result is something reminiscent of those awesome stop-motion-style videos from when you were a kid, with a wild backcountry twist. He skins the ascent, take selfies at the summit, rappels back down and shreds his way into a yard sale. Although it’s short, it’s most definitely worth a half a million more views.
It’s refreshing to see peoples’ zest for life all across the world not getting squashed by this outbreak. In fact, the amount of artistic and offbeat pieces of content we’ve seen in the past few weeks has been more than we can remember in any one given time period.
Press play for some Monday inspiration to do something out-of-the-box and inventive this week.
