A man taking his drone out for a spin while on vacation in Rhode Island caught something entirely unexpected on a 175-foot wind turbine.
Just as his drone reached the top, its blades still, it spotted a man laying on the body of the turbine, seeming to be taking in the sunshine.
According to a description on the video the drone pilot, identified as Kevin Miller of California, wrote that he figured it was “my chance to get up close to capture what is usually tough to access. So I decided to drive up and get a super close video while it was not in operation.”
Noticing the drone, the man on top sat up and waved. The device zoomed in to get a closer look and make sure the video lens was not deceiving him.
“At that point I decided to take a closer look by moving closer to say hi,” Miller wrote. “Once I got closer I moved the drone side to side to say hello and he motioned back to the drone. It was a cool interaction between us. From there I moved on to do what I came to do and fly around the wind turbine to capture the future of this technology.”
