Testing 17pro Front Camera, Feel Special XTReme

I changed 4 times to test the colours on this, because I am highly sceptical of front cameras. This one did ok, but it doesn’t allow to film in ultra-wide so the image can feel claustrophobic in small spaces.

Beware that if you need this device as a phone, it only comes with eSim which makes it highly non-versatile for travel as most countries on this planet use physical sims, so you will need to buy another device for travel, or keep your older device. I got this one because it came highly recommended as a camera with significant upgrades from the 16pro. I wasn’t intending to use it as a phone. 

 

Big Bad Frog, and Good Girls, Just Dance 2026 Previews

I was in such a good mood this morning due to my crazy epic dream that I decided to film three previews. 

I’ve had difficulty uploading Chichika for some reason, but it’s coming. My internet speed is at the slowest it has ever been. 

Update: Wifi, phone signal and data are on and off due to continuous protests in my area. I was informed that the police cuts off the signal to stop people from inciting violence online, but also they don’t like being filmed, so devices get temporarily bricked in protest perimeters. This further allows the police to crash and capture any drones people may be flying. 

All night I’ll riot with you – Physical, August Takes (29s)

as the title indicates, this was shot in August, some of the first shots in this ridiculous leotard, and we can also clearly see the Xbox One cardboard box that since then was soaked and recycled. Every time I see it in the footage, I get some weird nostalgia. 

Circus Extreme, Dip and Floor Moves (21 seconds)

AI told me not to use the term “death drop”, because this move is not a proper death drop, but a simple dip. A death drop would imply prior spiraling and slamming down as hard as possible. The first time I learned a proper dip was for Vogue by Madonna (a year ago) in high heels, so now it was a breeze. I’ll dig out the vogue video, but I remember it wasn’t obvious to sit on a stiletto heel, so I had to contort my foot to the side. So, preferred terms would be soft dip or hard dip. This is a soft dip. 

here is a full clarification, apparently it is the same thing. Btw, I always touch my head to the floor. I don’t get the idea of giving an “illusion” that it touches. In the Circus routine it is a full body level dip. Dip it is.
