Without any hope on getting my suitcase with my equipment back and crash landing the borrowed drone I got from a participant of the rally I am supposed to photograph, I decided to buy a new drone.
But it drops dead out of the air on the first flight!

Keep your head up Peter. You have video proof that it just fell out of the sky.
there is no proof of any kind - this inexperience sociopath could have not had the battery fully in - or his phone died or malfunctioned - or a million other highly inexperienced asinine mistakes that he is simply begging for with his callus disregard for others.
Peter, look at this way. The drone did not hit anybody or anything, then you would have been in real troubles. So keep cool, please do, we all love you and your videos, life goes on. ❤️😢🤗
yeah, big luck this time...
A true narcacisim sociopath - he is told of the dangers to others, he knows of the dangers to others, he acknowledges the danger to others... he endangers others anyway.
Its 6am, 5 degrees outside, making coffee, and watching Peter! The world is a great place!
Where?
This is why it is always a good idea to do the first flight of a new drone on a isolated area without people, cars etc.
Absolutely true. In this case I didn't have time to do that. Therefor I was taking baby steps to see if it was doing alright. Since it went well, I thought it was safe to go up staying on the same position.
@@NeverMindYourOwnit was indeed very strange and unlikely what happend! you videos are very interesting! keep it going!

Maybe the battery wasn't clicked into position correctly ? 💩
This will be the case. I know, because I learned the hard way.
Listen again...Phantom was running before impact...wasn't any power failure.
@@repaid1 at 12:37, he states that the log ends at 110 meters. This means it was NOT running before impact. He also goes on to say that the log does not show the descent. This was obviously a power failure. MY theory is that you have to be VERY careful about what David Brown indicates. This has happened to me twice with my P4. It sits in a closet now because I did not buy insurance. I fly a M2 now, and you better believe it has insurance. I had a mavic air for a little while and it had this feature where it wouldn't even allow takeoff if the battery clips were even SLIGHTLY out of place. This indicates that DJI is well aware of the design flaw, but did nothing to fix it in the p4-2 ...
Sorry for the misfortune, but later on you will laugh and tell this interesting story!
v2.0 has an interlock switch that won't let the drone take off unless the battery is fully engaged. This was likely electronics failure due to 'infant mortality' end of bell curve of MTBF.
This happened to me as well with the Phantom 4 Pro. For me the battery wasn’t correctly in place. Dropped dead from 40 m.
Holy shit Peter , I feel really bad for you , how much misfortune can you have in one trip indeed . I hope you dont get screwed over by DJI , they'd better come good with a new one , they only need to watch this video to see what happened .
Peter, my Phantom 3 did the same exact thing, just fell from the sky. Sent DJI the files, it was out of warranty, they fixed it for free, it was a problem with the main board. It just powered off and fell, lucky it was only about 30 meters high and over farm ground. Your situation was bad but man that could have been much worse my friend with the people below. Love the videos, be safe...
I feel your pain my friend, wouldn’t wish this on anyone hope you get your luggage back good luck mate.
Nederlander, ik heb nu ook een mavic pro
I am sorry to hear about this crash. I just recently finished restoring Ken Heron’s crashed Phantom 4 Pro. If you don’t get DJI to replace that I know it can be fixed. Just takes a little effort. Hope you get it replaced and are back in the air in no time.
I feel your pain Peter :( Don't give up though - look at how much joy your hobby brings you - and us! Withe the footage and the logs, DJI will surely have to replace the drone, and hopefully your luggage will return as well
Please Do not give up. you are an inspiration to a lot of us amateurs
Thank you for this video. My phantom 4 pro did the exact same thing! It was hovering only 3' off the ground over a pile of snow so no damaged occurred. I tested with a second battery hovering 2' from ground, exact same failure. My drone was just within warranty so it was replaced, the only information I received was "main controller failure". The funny thing is before they determined my drone was still under warranty I received this:
Unfortunately, damage that is not caused by a product malfunction or is out of the warranty period is not covered by DJI aftersales policy. Damage was not caused by product malfunction. We'll either repair it or replace it with a product that's new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability after payment has been received.
"Damage was not caused by product malfunction" however after proving my drone was under warranty they did cover the repair. The drone I received back from them was new. I am here to say that power failure is a thing, I was filming at the time and video just stops at the point of failure. What happened in this video is exactly what happened to me, the only difference is I was 3' off the ground, the test with the new battery and the exact same thing happening again proves it. DJI is well aware of this issue.
Don't give up Peter. We are your patrons, friends & community. You are one of the few people that I have gone back and watched every video that you have made. Sometimes life tests us to the breaking point. Come out the other side stronger. We are with you.
I feel your pain, my friend. I recently bought a P4P v2 and today, on the 5th flight of the aircraft, it stopped obeying the controller and flew in a straight line backward into a concrete wall, breaking my props and landing skid. Super frustrating. I will not feel confident with this drone any longer.
and that's why you don't fly above peoples heads of property, you were lucky
Peter what can I say I really really feel for you at this moment I know you have just got to wait and see what happens now all the best my friend
Oh man, so sad. I feel your pain. My theory of the failure is that the battery pack was not fully locked into the compartment, and vibrated loose during the flight and the internal power connector finally came apart; that might explain a sudden power failure. I hope your DJI warranty experience goes better than mine... DJI found every reason to deny my claim when my Phantom flew away on its own into the ocean. I hope you have better luck with their support than I did. We love your videos.
May be the battery Got loose n the connection to power was lost coz it just does not drop like that. Then did u set the option when signal is lost, Return home , Hower ETC
Peter: I think you've risked making your first flight over people. You always have to try the products, in safe places. With your flight experience, you should not make these beginner mistakes.
The general rules of drone flights prohibit flying over crowds of people to avoid damage.
I want this video to be a lesson for everyone.
I'm sorry of heart, everything that is happening to you. I am a follower of yours, and I would not want you to be discouraged. Your videos are of great interest.
Greetings.
Take a good look on a large TV screen: the battery snapped out of the drone as the drone hit the ground. So this is not a case of a battery exiting the body of the drone high above.
Mate, I’ve just seen this. The exact same thing has happened to me TWICE. Thankfully, I have had my drone back for about 6 weeks now and it appears fine.
The one thing which caused me to second guess my actions was the battery connection. I have since discovered that the drone can be powered up without the battery being completely clicked into place. When you get it back, double and triple check that the battery is fixed correctly before take off.
Additionally, we all rush into getting our drone into the air. Take your time and check blades, battery, GPS signal, etc before every single take off.
Safe flying. 🚁
So..my 7 day old Phantom 4 Pro v2 fell from above because the battery disconnected dispite the v2 having a fail safe to prevent that from happening. DJI covered this under warranty. Sent me a refurbished quad. Wow. Guess what happened after I received it back? Yep you guessed it! My second flight out it fell to the ground again. This time DJI said there was a problem in one of the boards in the aircraft. So they sent me another refurbished quad. Wow again. By this time nearly 9 weeks had passed. To this day I'm never comfortable flying the quad and rarely do and never far. How could I ever trust it. I feel your pain Peter and hope you fare well
I do so love watching your videos and you are a natural at presenting them. Please let us know how it all pans out.
Take a break Peter, until your head clears. Don't worry about what anyone else thinks, or feel any pressure to complete this trip. Look after yourself first, then follow your heart.
My P4P did the same thing in about the same amount of flight time. DJI kept it for what seemed like a year but it was like 7 weeks. Your look and feeling of disbelief when it fell was very familiar.
The other posibility could be that u were flying in a drone free area so ur drone was fired by radar control making it loose connection
.. really feeling very sorry for you - completely understand your tendency to surrender. it´s insanely crazy to have so much of a bad luck in a row - nearly impossible.
Peter please don't give in to all these problems, you have given so many people inspiration. Time to explore Georgia for yourself. At the moment you cant do anything about your drones so use the time to enrich your own mind. Hopefully the Dji shop will get things put right, there have been a few comments on the forums about Dji drones just committing suicide. I think the upward shots should prove there were no obstructions.
you need a travel insurance for next trip
Hi Peter, what I learned from 40 years RC flying is, that technical parts can fail anytime for any reason. Even if they are brand new! Coming from that, does it make sense to fly a drone without a independent parachute rescue system (e.g. ParaZero or others)? Even more with the risk of hurting people, damaging peoples property, causing severe fire (by burning LiPo‘s) etc. ! From my personal point of view a „must have“ for safely operating a drone.
The drone gods are trying to tell you something...
Thank goodness nobody was hurt.
Sign to move on to the Mavic 2 pro/zoom
Can you imagine??? So lucky it didn't fall on the car. How about on A PERSON????!!!!!!!!!!
Person would be better, it would get more views on youtube
@@EvolvedSurvival ye
@Proces Media Video Production exactly. And that is why drone flying is not just a piece of toy. It can really kill a person!
I think he stated a car because where the drone hit, there was not a single person near... only cars
He didn't say person because there was no persons there come on don't be stupid
Peter, Thanks for your videos. I have bought the Phantom 4 Pro V2 recently and have not flown it yet. This video has made me rethink DJI Care for it. I hope you continue flying. Really appreciate your videos.
Happened twice to me and once in a tree you are very blessed not to hit anyone could have been fatal.
There is a bang at 8:59 - just before he says it disconnected. Sounds almost like a gunshot?
AmbroseClarke
Yup...It Got shot Down
omg peter i have been flying phantom 3s for years and have not had any serious problems other than pilot error ,100% not your fault dont stop flying drones i hope you get your luggage/drones back/ people like you inspire people like me so keep up the great work you do
There is a setting you need to turn off. For turning off the motors inflight. Make sure it’s set to off. Set to never turn off inflight. I have phantom 4 and that’s the first thing I did before my first flying experience. Have not had any problems , it’s My first drone ever.
Look at the clip of the drone hitting the ground. No parts of the drone flew off opposite of where Peter is standing. The fact that he walks in the direction of the drone and further away to get the battery and other pieces means the battery fell out of the phantom 4 mid-flight.
Hi Peter.
I understand your pain and stress but don't give up and enjoy your trip. Try to think positively about the situation. Everyone has bad days, pick yourself up and keep going. Greatings from Switzerland

Hi. What about considering to buy another brand of the drone for example xiaomi and telling us what do you think about it in compare to DJI drones? Have a nice day - keep posting.
sudden drop, completely dead on air. obviously not cables, obviously not connection error, obvioulsy not calibration problems. i hav 99% sure it's was electronic failure, probably with the flight controller or mainboard that where defective. if dji it's honest, you'll get a new one ASAP.
I wonder If he made sure the battery was properly clicked in its place?? Maybe the battery slowly fall of until the no turning back now.. Sorry
Steve Jay drone jammer I think
Is not the first time a p4 pro loses power and fall, in forums you can see some reports with this failure, i have one that fall at lower altittude into a river... gimbal with water damage and bent arm.
@@stage3muppet No such thing in a instance like this. If the Drone was jammed (Signal lost from controller) being that close to home point the Phantom would have landed in place. If it was further away it would have returned to homepoint and landed. There are no devices that can shut down a Phantom/DJI..they can only in rarest instance scramble GPS and then it would have just drifted in wind. This was not a power failure as drone was running before it impacted. Many things wrong with operation of pilot, antennas not correctly oriented to aircraft for one, flying in a area with a untested/new drone is two. I would say probable cause for this is prop strike in air (Causing prop failure) or more likely props not locked on correctly...possible motor failure. Logs will tell the truth.. All in all operator should not have been flying where he was and is lucky he lost only the Phantom.
@@stage3muppet Drone jammers are just for signal
hey peter,please donot give up. i’ve been always watching your great videos from japan.
you’re not average guy!!
i like the way you do.
Looks likely to be a cut off pilot error hopefully you got it sorted peter
Same thing happened to one my p4p v2 in aug Peter in middle of a job in outback Australia.
After investigation, the reason for power failure was battery dislodgement.
Despite the v2 having the new battery securing redundancy feature.
My battery also popped out on impact onto a rock hard surface just like yours mate.
Dji promptly replaced the aircraft and battery as they should with yours.
Hopefully future battery securing design will include a clasp over locking mechanism rather than plastic lips
That will be a better system than current double securing method of a pilot putting duct tape over the battery
Key safety feature to ensure the aircraft will not fall out of the sky is it will not takeoff unless battery points make contact, when the possibility exists for those points to lose contact then that safety feature becomes a hazard
Sorry for your troubles mate, hope dji come good with a new one for you.
That's true for most of England but the field I fly in is the flight path of Chinooks and Apache helis that go to windsor. did you have a DJI refresh
It appears to have after market low noise props, make sure that the new props are OEM DJI.
Thoughts are with you Peter. Don't give up. Hope the luggage turns up and the shop replace the drone. Then, back on track. Take Care.
you will never forget this bad trip in your life
HI Peter my heart goes out to you, its not been a good time for you on this trip at all, lost your suitcase with your drones, then borrowed an other drone only to have that crash land, then to go and buy a brand new one so that you can get back in the AIR with your own Drone, only to have that fall out of the sky for no reason that I could see, yes you could have hit wires, that's more than likely as that's all that it could have been at that height, but I think like you, you have been flying long enough now to scope out the area before you fly, so the only other issue is that it was a faulty drone, and you get yourself a replacement from the shop, I hope that this is what happens and that your visit is not cut short because of this, fingers crossed this end for you Peter, regards TJK UK.
Oh, man I did not expect the drone to do that. How did that happen?
So sorry Peter, I have a DJI Phantom 3 4k and 2 monds ago it fall from the sky sudenly, and crash to the street, this sound of the crash moment remember me how frustrating was for me this moment too, In my case I think was because a Battery problem low voltage. But I feeld so bad for days. But I can see that you are doing well with the bad situations (The luggage problem too, so bad), but you are taking good decisions, and doing calm, and with selfcontrol in this bad time. That is fine, commendable! Keep walking! Live one day at a time. And after a while you will be much better. Greatings from Ecuador!!!!
-Its just murphys law Peter!!
dont let it get you down!
-Be happy for the little things...
(First.... -You didnt injure or kill anyone..
secondly: -At least you didnt have a car breakdown in the middle of nowhere at the same time?! or some other shit...)
-Im sure things will work out for you eventually!
Youre one of the good guys, -and the good guys always wins, -Right?!
Here in Sweden we love you man!
Keep up your good work!
Cant wait for the next episode!
Hi, I felt your frustration watching this video.
A similar situation happened to me with the Phantom Pro v2.0 while I was in Miami a little more than a year ago.
My Mavic Pro caught fire mid flight in Miami Beach - The Camera Gimball Ribbon got stuck and burned. The following day I purchased a brand new Phantom Pro v2.0 in Miami, charged it and went on a first flight in Brickell, Miami. The Phantom got disconnected 500m from me, and just dropped out of the sky never to be seen again. I was really upset, I went back to the store the following day a bought yet another brand new Phantom Pro v2.0, same store, one day later, the saleswoman couldn't believe it and told me it had happened to another customer as well on the same week.
Took my brand new drone for a first flight on the Miami River by Bayside. Unbelievably the drone got disconnected at 300m and kept flying away until I lost sight of it. It never returned Home even thought RHT was activated. The sky was clear blue with zero wind.
I've been going back and forth with DJI for more than a year now and they are still refusing to take responsibility, even after I have sent them the cache, the flight itineraries, the pictures, the serial numbers, the receipts. I get automated replies always asking me to repeat the same story again, again for more than a year. Horrible Customer Service.
Meanwhile my old Phantom 4 bought in 2016 still flies well 4 years later.
The Phantom Pro v2.0 is unreliable and dangerous, it does drop from the sky and could hit anything or anybody.
In the end DJI offered me a 30% sale on a new Phantom Pro v2.0 even though I lost 3 drones in 3 days (Mavic Pro, and 2 PP v2.0). Their conclusion is that it cannot be proven that the Pro v2.0 had a malfunction, and so it could be a human error. Complete BS.
I don't really have the confidence to fly DJI drones like I used to in the past. The drone damages property, or falls on a person or a dog or anything and I could be liable for millions of dollars.
Thanks for the video. That proves that I am not the only one who had such an incident.
Cheers.
I have seen this happen on several Phantom 4 Pro drones. Was hovering at 100' and drone went silent. Looked up and battery and drone are falling separately. The battery will lock only one tab in and then the other works its way loose. A friends did the same thing. DJI Fixed both at no charge.
Sorry your having so much bum luck. Hope it gets better for you love watching your videos keep your spirits up.
Things can only get better! Good luck Peter
You are so lucky that drone didn't hit someone or land on one of those cars.
I give 1 million monies to anyone who convinces me to go travelling with this guy. Wots the next video? A piano falling on his head?
Not surprised. Have had my fare share of odd issues with MA. Will be looking elsewhere for my next purchase.
oh crap, this drop was so sudden, thank god nobody got hurt.
Please let us know what was the store action. cant wait to see a new video
Nobody got hurt ?? ..It was a spark/air !!!
@@royharaldsandvik ??? It was a phantom 4 pro v2 that he bought at the beginning of the video
After a careful analysis: the battery separated from the drone at the moment the drone hit the ground. The battery then jumped about 1 meter from the hit point while the main body of the drone jumped about 6 meters from the hit point. Only one conclusion is possible: the battery was well within the drone until the ground impact.
Exactly, That's my conclusion too.
When I find myself stressed I say to my self one day I'm going to die so what ever is going on that is stressing me out becomes not that important. That said I really hope you get everything solved favorable for you.
This has happened to me two times, the battery comes just lose enough shut the power off- This is a known problem with the Phantom 4 V2. The first time DJI replaced the entire drone, the 2nd time it landed in grass and survived with no damage. Make sure to secure the batteries.
You are amazing... I feel for you and hope at the end all get back to normal and you recover from this.
I don't think I would hold as well as you did.
In de drone zelf zit een geheugenkaartje die de laatste video/vlucht heeft opgeslagen, dat bekijkt men bij DJI, zo kunnen ze zien dat het niet jou schuld is, en krijg je een nieuwe. Ik heb de mijne ook gratis kunnen laten repareren
Between drone failure, pilot error, drone laws from place to place, police, and angry people not as fun or rewarding to fly anymore. I gave up years ago.
Im gonna guess the battery fell out a little bit mine had this problem when it was new where the latch would not fully close itself and on my first flight the battery fell out about 10 feet up in the air
Be glad it didn't anybody or a car, I would 100% say it was component failure or battery not pushed fully home. Take your drones as hand luggage , it's been an expensive trip for sure, keep the faith and start again Peter 👍
Is this the new DJI Precision Landing
This is why the first generation Phantom 1 was better. It did not have a wi-fi phone for a transmitter, just its OWN stock transmitter. Drone's software problem? Maybe, but, still. P1 was and will be better for many years to come!
I think the battery was blown in the air. Thats why the propellors stopped and the aircraft disconnected before planting in the street.
Oh dear peter when is your luck going to change, hang on in there mate, don’t give up I’m sure I speak for everyone else here that you’re videos are so entertaining to watch 👍👍👍
I’m guessing the battery wasn’t pressed in all the way. I’ve seen and had it happen before.
These are tough challenges. I can understand, if you lose the joy. Sometimes you just can not get on, not even with violence. relax the rest of the days and come to yourself.
As always, I'm looking forward to your next video.
That is seriously the craziest thing I’ve ever seen!!! Especially for a Phantom 4!!! Woooow!!!!
Hi, I was flying a new Phantom 4 pro V2.0 with a friend that is also a pilot like me, we were testing it, because my friend got a job with a big company in my country, after 3 or four minutes in the air, the bird came down and smashed on the floor, we were flying at 3 meters above the ground, the drone was new, it was the company's Drone were my friend get the job, he was totally scared, at the end we found on the web that some batterie lot from DJI were defective and many pilots have had the same problem.
Batterie failure I guess mate.
Luckily you were filming it.
Good luck...
Keep going and be strong...
Animo Peter, la suerte volverá, dji seguro que te da un nuevo dron, no abandones, eres el mejor.
Absolutely a battery disconnect. This has happened to me TWICE on my p4p. It unfortunately sits in a closet because I did not buy insurance. Same result too, one arm was snapped in half and the gimbal tore loose.
I had similar situation on the beginning of this month. Have to say it was not my first fly on that drone, but first after firmware update. I was really lucky because it happened on really low altitude about 0.5m of the ground, but it was enough to brake it. Also didn’t have a video of the fall and had to pay about 200€ for repair :(
My god Peter!, when the video poped up I couln't believe it. Be happy that didn't hit anyone or anything, that you filmed how it just dropped, and that you have a youtube channel, I mean, you can inlfuence a good audience. I think and hope that this is the point from where things will become better and better for you. Cheer up.
I had the same problem with a brand new phantom 4 a year ago. I had owned it about a week and then while flying over a marsh it just dropped out of the sky. DJI tried to claim that I flew before it wamed up but I pointed out that it won't take off like that. Then they tried to claim pilot error but the flight logs showed I had taken off and flown outbound with constant climb and then it just dropped. It took a month of daily calls before they finally accepted responsibility. Then they promised to ship it overnight but I didn't get it for almost 3 weeks.
I do like the DJI products. And I am tolerant of failures. But their customer service is the worst.
I do wonder if the battery ejected. My battery was found about 20 feet away from the airframe. Looks like yours was too.
Good luck!
Sorry to hear about your issues. My battery ejected at impact.
This is an adventure quite allright. Unbelievable it just fell out of the sky. Two weeks ago, I had also mid-air troubles. It was in the open field, in the middle of nature. The camera was suddenly hanging and moving randomly while no telemetry data on the display was updated anymore. The cameraproblem could perhaps be due to a tough breeze as it was a bit windy that day but not alarming. But that doesn't explaine the lacking telemetry data.. I decided to lower the drone to 5 meters (that did work) to get it out of the wind, because I knew it's location approximately and I didn't want it to be drifting away or something. I couIdn't see if it was hovering above the same spot at 80 meters. So no telemetry but there was good video. I didn't know if it was safe for the drone to land, so I had to run 600m and see if landing was safe. I have still no idea what caused the sudden malfunction, but it is proven that despite all safety measures in drones and software, it is just not safe. It was not a user fault in both our cases, that's for sure. I hope your equipment has been arrived in the mean time. You then might have sold your old Phantom and now be enjoying the replaced new Phantom. (would be best scenario I guess). Good to know they pay up to 1000 Euro's only, didn't know that. Thank's, despite the bad luck, it was a very exiting video to watch :)
@@peterjungmann6057 Thanks John, it is a Mavic 1 with a 16 GB SD Micro. I was looking this week for the max 64 GB but that might not be a good idea now :) I always use a data tank of WD to empty the card after each flight (4 batteries).
@@peterjungmann6057 Thank you John.
peter, has a lot of experience flying drones, and this happens ,makes wonder how safe it is to fly mine now.
Hi Peter gutted for you! You mentioned it was a valley! Are you sure there's no powerlines higher up?
So sorry to hear.Hope all get sorted.
Peter, you have my deepest sympathies. Watching this trip unfold has been like watching someone falling down stairs. They say “ no good deed goes unpunished”. I do believe you have done many good deeds!😕
I sincerely hope your fortunes change for the better and change very, very soon!
Peter, what a run of misfortune you are having. I am sure you have reached the bottom of the barrel now and everything will start getting better from here on. I hope DJI come to your assistants and replace the drone for you. Make sure you send DJI support the video of the incident, unedited, so they can see the events leading to the crash. Go and a strong coffee and a good meal, this should make you feel better.
Keep making your videos and flying. We all enjoy watching your work.
Oh man Peter I'm so sorry you had such a bad bad trip. I probably would have booked a flight home. I'm glad you didn't give up. Never you mind giving up!!!! I love your videos.
Dang----Hope you have good luck with DJI Customer Support. I've heard of batteries falling out off DJI Spark before. I wonder if that's what happened to you?
Wow! I know how that feels, my hubsan h501s mysteriously dropped from 50 meters and 238 meters away, had to enter the gps coordinates into google maps to find it, I rebuilt and painted it red/white ,only other choice for body was black or white
The same thing just happened to me a few weeks ago! So frustrating! I was lucky enough to have it fall into an empty field where nothing below was damaged! Simply ridiculous
Er zijn voor en tegenslagen in het leven jij hebt nu gewoon echt enorm veel pech dus hopen dat het beter gaat en stop niet je doet het zeer goed 👍🏻
Wow......I crashed my drone yesterday and it’s also product failure (motor froze and prop flew off at 83 meters high, crashed to a million pieces)
I hope you get a new one,I’m going to sell mine when I get it back.
Good luck and please follow up with a video.
Feeling sad for you buddy. Hope everything goes well soon
Oh my god I m so worried for you 🙁 I think the drone fall out of the sky because the battery disconneted and that s why the flight logs end at 110m and why your screen froze in grey an it says "Aircraft disconnected". The phantom 4 pro obsidian was having some battery disconnection problems (it could be the same problem on your drone).
These things test us sometimes Peter. Just like the water passing you on that river so this will all pass. Like you said be calm Be patient, then when the time is arrives get back on and you will find your confidence again . When you do this stuff so much like you do eventually things like this will happen . You have had a great run . So much enjoyment . And this I’m sure is the end of the bad run of luck . So don’t give up just before things get good again ! Have fun with it again 👍
the river is a perfect place to forget your bad luck...very interesting pictures of how people live in Georgia
