What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

style.org > Estimating the Airspeed Velocity of an Unladen Swallow

We now need only plug in the numbers:

U ≈ 3fA
f ≈ 15 (beats per second)
A ≈ 0.22 (meters per beat)
U ≈ 3*15*0.22 ≈ 9.9​

... to estimate that the airspeed velocity of an unladen European Swallow is 10 meters per second.

I thought the go pro underwater footage always had circular edges...did they fix that or is it a specific housing?

Yep.

You can fix that.

Hi lionfisheater, while I like your video, the dude dragging his hand through the sand like that probably exposed dozens of life from their 'homes' under the sand surface. For instance in that area there are many, many sail-fin blennies that I see all the time. Most people have never seen them, they are not easy to spot. I only write this to again put out that we as divers should never touch anything, at least try really hard not to. Sand does not seem to be on the list much when we talk about 'no touch' topics. Sorry to rant. I love the shot of the water-nado.
