Exocentric video
Video recorded by cameras positioned around a session or activity.


A tripod camera sees the whole rider and bike come down rock ledges: body position, bike path and ground in one frame, which a camera on the rider's helmet cannot show. Where the rider looked is not recorded.
Public footage, not ONME data.
