Would you consider making a version of the Insta360 that connects to a pair of FPV goggles? It would be an amazing experience to be able to see the camera footage live through VR-like goggles and have the camera affixed at the user's back in a third-person view!

I can't say how good it is to have you back, James. More importantly, how good it is to hear you're doing better!
James, I'm not a engineer, I'm a biochemist. I also struggle with depression. I wanted you to know you're a inspiration for me. Since I can remember I dream about making fictional stuff reality. And when I saw you put such an enormous amount of effort into making fictional stuff reality. It was just an inspiration

Mate, so glad you're doing much better. You've been incredibly brave by being honest about your struggles. Keep going my friend, sometimes it feels like it's one day at a time, but suddenly a year or so has gone by and you're free and clear. Big love bro x
James out here saying the stuff most are afraid to say, depression is hell but it’s good to see you working through it
The frank openness on mental health is honestly really refreshing; too often it seems there's pressure to hide any non happy emotions. Glad you're doing better, and looking forward to seeing more awesome videos!
Glad you’re doing better mentally, man! Man, imagine this: you’re trapped somewhere on a mountain and instead of a helicopter, this person with a jet pack comes to your rescue! Oooooh that would be so cool!

Yes, the hacksmith is back. Im glad you are doing better mentally
We love you, brother. It's good to see you getting your head back on straight and stepping back into the world you love. Here's to many more videos with you in the future, however long you need to rest between them.
This was great. Nice to see you enjoying yourself so much, and this stye of video is really cool. People can relate to it, and enjoy seeing others enjoy themselves! Colin's swing and the jet suit; man, so cool!
The start of this is so cute. I'm glad you're feeling better James. Keep it up
Great to see James enjoying Life and how totally cool is it that he knows Colin !! I would love to meet Colin and James someday! Two very awesome people ever!
This sure was a "feel good" trip. Had a stupid smile the whole video. Great filming, crazy angles and awesome editing. Nice to see Colin too!
Thank you James and Hacksmith. Keep this going. A healthy balance of vlogs keeps the people going. You have your inventions, but people genuinely care about your life too, so keep it up. One day you won't be able to walk down the street without people being like" is that James from Hacksmith?" I'm sure they do in Canada already. I'm a proud Canadian, living in Holland, and you are living proof that school, learning, and education is important. Your channel is a great inspiration for the youth and I hope that you can go to schools, give talks, and raise awareness that education matters. It's the only way to accomplish a dream.
Looks like an incredible trip James, so happy for you! Stoked to hear you're doing better too
Holidays and vacations are definitely what we need in our lives when we’re mentally stressed and exhausted from work. I can tell that trip means a lot to you! That camera puts GoPros to shame! It’s the future for sure!
Felt like a "back to the old days" on your channel. Highly enjoyed it. Also enjoy what the rest of the team is doing. Happy for your combined efforts and success. All the best.
Oh I loved this video. I loved to see you back and it seemed like you were having a blast. I wish I could've seen you and Colin make something that would've been amazing. Loved this. Good job mate.
As a person who has gone through mental health issues over the years it great to see you getting well and seeing back doing some videos,keep getting better
That day with you and the other youtubers looks like the funnest thing ever. So many great people.
I watched the original weightless machine, weeble wobble, and gravity jet-suit videos so seeing all of them together is an insane experience. Please keep making more of these vlog style videos, they're so fun!
11:00 James at Gravity: It's like witnessing the Brothers Wright flight through the eyes of an enthusiastic engineer who is allowed to try flying the first plane and see the constant improvements being made over the years.
Love seeing you and Colin (and crew) hanging out! Furze is a mad scientist 😂
I knew burnouts can't burn you out! You're like gold- the more you burn-the better you become! Welcome back, Engineer's Engineer!
Great to see you back James. And in a better place too! What an amazing trip to see family, Furze and Gravity all in the one go! Amazing. Keep doing whatever it is you’re doing mate.
I'm really glad you're back and doing better. Would love to see more vlog vids, especially those where you travel and meet other engineers or companies/institutions to show off what they've been working on. Maybe eventually bring all of them together to somewhere near H.E.R.C. and setup your own version of the stark expo.
So glad to hear you are availing yourself of the help there is out there to feel better and even more glad to hear you are in fact feeling better. keep taking good care of yourself.
Welcome back James, its amazing to know you're doing much better! We're all proud of you ❤
So glad to see you back! The videos are much better when you are more at the center - it really helps to ground them in your story and HI's development.
Hey James, I just wanted to say you're a massive inspiration for my pursuits in the field of engineering, and I too have been struggling with mental health. Knowing I'm not alone in this engineering field, with similar mental health issues has been comforting, and has helped me a lot to manage and come to terms with them. It's nice seeing you visit the UK, and seeing/hearing familiar places; I didn't realise you had family over here, but I've always enjoyed knowing I share a last name with someone as accomplished as you. You're certainly leaving a positive impression for the Hobson name, and through yours and many others inspiration, I hope to make a positive impression too. I don't often comment of videos, but I wanted to thank you for everything ^u^
james you’ve basically been my internet dad over the years. glad to see you’re feeling better and striving for better things! love you man
So happy to see that James is feeling better. Fun to see this vlog style content. Awesome video.
Glad to see you're doing better dude. Been there done that myself and I know how difficult it is to stay motivated even with simple things at times. Good luck with the new projects! Mush 🍄 love brother
My favourite thing about flying across the pond is landing extremely tired and then immediately being thrown onto a highway on the wrong side of the road. I'm getting pretty good at it.
Loved all of this...the fact you're getting better, the beautiful scenery from the UK, you and all the other makers getting together at Colins...great stuff! Looking forward to the future EDIT: Gah, forgot mention the trip to Gravity...amazing they're still doing their thing and constantly improving the tech
looking very happy, you could see the pure joy with everything you did in the video. nice to see you back
Welcome back James. I'm glad to see you're doing well! You've been such an inspiration to me over the years, and I just wanted to say thank you for everything you do.
Good to you back in the saddle. You really looked like you enjoyed the whole thing, always good to catch up with family and maybe even see their old stomping grounds. Awesome looking rig he had there. How high was that thing it looked like real fun and finally congrates on the hover medal, mega cool.
It makes me ecstatic to hear James' mental health is improving, I hope he feels better and better everyday. We all love you James ❤

I’m happy you’re feeling better! What you’ve created in a relatively short time is nothing short of amazing. Seeing you happy and still being able to do cool things at a more manageable pace now is wonderful to see. Take care of yourself and enjoy what you’ve built and the ideas you have at your own pace! We’re here for it. Much love! ❤
for some reason hearing you were going to Yorkshire to visit family made me so happy because im from Yorkshire and im studying robotics engineering in uni and a big part of the inspiration to do that was from your vids, specifically the exoskeleton ones you made aaaaaaaaages back

Love this format :) Vlogs of you guys traveling/meeting people/companies doing cool stuff would be awesome.

Glad your back. I went to the uk with my dad and we did exactly the same thing you did at the start. It brought back good memories and im glad you got to do the same thing
I’m so glad your mentally doing better. I’ve been watching your videos since I first started using KZread back in 2017-2018 and I was supposed to meet you at the hamilton comicon but sadly I couldn’t make it. Still got my father to get me a signature and now my life feels a bit more complete. Thank you James

Keep doing what makes you happy James! Glad to see you in another video, hope we get to see more but if that's not what the future holds then that's fine too!
Of all the ways to announce that you're doing better mentally, going and having fun with Colin Furze's contraptions and then going for a fly is the most spectacular one I've seen. Knowing Colin, I'm kind of surprised he didn't blow anything up while you were there.
I’ve gotten so uses to project videos I forgot how much I loved the vlog style videos. I definitely would watch anyone’s that come out in the future.
Welcome back to the UK! I loved the beginning of this video, finding out a bit more about long distance family
Great to see you back! You look much better. That gathering was awesome... I already follow 6 out of the what 8 ppl that were there... amazing.
Really glad to hear you’re doing better, I’ve been watching for a long time and hearing about you’re mental health was very shocking but also a great reminder that even if you’re famous you are still human, welcome back James✌️
So good to see you doing better. Missed you not being around, but totally understand the need for a break.
Respect James, mental health is one hell of a rollercoaster. Good to see you back, please don’t burn yourself out, enjoy life and we look forward to seeing your happy videos in the future.
Very glad to see you are back and happy to hear you sort help, to fight off that black dog, that was dragging you down. Here's wishing you all the best for the future and a big thank you for the entertainment and knowledge you are passing on to others.
13:42 i love that you can see the "why didn't i think about that" expression moment. XD
so good to see you doing better. keep doing you, and hit the videos when you're ready
I'm glad to hear you're doing better. This video was quite entertaining, it's nice to see a bunch of people I watch get together to have some fun. Also I love Sam so damn much
finally a break form the industrial videos and something authentic and heartfelt. liking this documentary type style. you should do this more often.
Good to have you back man, I started watching your videos in 2015, and loved you guys ever since
James. It's so good to hear that you're doing so much better, I'm glad you had the chance to see a load of people on your trip. If you're ever down in Plymouth, Devon I'll buy you a coffee. Thanks for being an inspiration to us over the years. 😀👍
James, vlog style videos are just fine. Build videos are just fine. Honestly, what comes through past all the blood sweat and tears is the pure fun you have doing all these crazy things and that’s more attractive than any technical success. And there’s no doubt at all that this video was WAY too much fun for you not to share. Thanks.
glad to see you are feeling a lot better, love seeing you in videos, great to see you happy
hey man, I'm glad things are going better for you. I was deep into depression too when you took that brake, it's cool to see you're recovering too!
Welcome back James and great to see you hang out with Colin. Also looking forward to my Mini-Saber Gen 2 Founders Edition arriving in the near future
Great to hear that you're doing better this year James. What a fun trip you've had here! All the best!
I am happy to see you are going better. I met you at Niagara Falls ComiCon and didn't say much, just being so nervous. I'm so glad you took the opportunity to make sure you were doing okay!
Glad to see you get better and back!!! 💪 Looking forward to see more videos
Glad to see you back in front of the camera. Even more glad to know that your mental health has improved. It is always great to see your content but even better to know you are getting the help you need.
Man it's great to see that you're doing better. Making videos (or not) because you want to is how it should be. The team has been doing a great job during your break time.
Welcome back James. You always have been and continue to be an inspiration to those who are looking to do the impossible. So glad to hear that you are making positive progress on your mental health journey. Seeing someone you look up to come out and say that they are struggling, it validates the feelings that others may have and are too scared to say it themselves. So glad to have you back. Remember everyone, You Are Loved!
Love the fun and lightness of this video. Happy you’re happy
