The FPV drone pilots taking cameras where humans can't go

From flying across lava to down the world's highest waterfall, drone videographers are pushing the limits of what cameras can record.
(CNN) — Standing deep in the jungle of Venezuela, Ellis van Jason was surrounded by insects. "These ants went into my ear, into my nose, like even inside the goggles," he tells CNN. But van Jason couldn't move; he had to stay focused. He was in the middle of flying his first-person view (FPV) drone, capturing nature from a different perspective. Van Jason is a cinematic FPV drone pilot and videographer. While drones for filming have been around for years, FPV has opened up new possibilities for videographers and content creators. Pilots "see" from the drone's point of view, wearing a pair of goggles to watch the live transmission. These drones allow them to record a vast array of shots, while also flying at extremely high speeds -- in turn, creating more dynamic and fast-paced videos. "It's like you're a bird," he explains. "You can fly wherever you want."
