    Not filmed from a drone. It was filmed from WLKY TV helicopter while it was circling, with gyro stabilized zoom lens.
    Version 2 has helmet cam video from tower crews

    side hills and water dropping the logs into the water of the inlet, had some pretty cool pictures of the Erickson Air-Crane in action
