Okay this could go very wrong - Hello, I'm Neil - and I just wanted to shoot... I just wanted to shoot this test, erm, today seemed to be the right day for it - the question is can you use an Osmo pocket in the rain? Erm, probably - I'm guessing woah! Guessing the answere's probably not because it's not weatherproof I believe
but erm... where's my face track? hang on, no! I'm here. Face track. There,how's that? No!
So that-- so I've just had this, it--
I've just had this for what, two days?
And, yes?
"Is it waterproof?"
It's not waterproof - it's not waterproof or weatherproof at all.
Er... so I thought - so thought I'd answer the question "can an Osmo Pocket be used in bad weather or in the rain?"
And today I've chosen the worst storm to hit Britain in a long time - it's it's called storm Ciara - yeah -
Oh! I'm not even wet!
It's predicted-- we're predicted to have 50 to 60 mile an hour winds or gusts
I don't know what the difference is between a wind and a gust - maybe you can tell me in the comments below
This is just - it's just the camera test to see if a storm will break my Osmo pocket
You might see the flaw in this plan - but to me it seems like a good idea
The other reason I wanted to shoot this test is to see how good or bad the audio is
So I understand, there are a couple of microphones in the bottom there
Dad?
Yes?
The only thing that's wet is my wellies. Oh.
That's it - I'm not wet. You think my legs are wet after jumping in that puddle. Nah.
Let me give you a sense of how bad the weather is.
There are so few cars...
So this is a really bad storm - let me get my phone out. I'll erm... show you what the Osmo Pocket looks like.
You see there's a bit of rain on there - you might be screaming at the screen right now
To tell me to get it in! And get it dry!
But I really just wanted to see how it would behave in a extreme situation
[WIND NOISE]
Yeah I know this could go horribly wrong but if we get through this day then... The world's my oyster with the Osmo Pocket.
[WIND NOISE]
"If we get through this day then woah the world's my oyster with the Osmo pocket!"
[WIND NOISE]
Oh the flip button seems to work
I haven't got my... erm, so don't have any windshield on the microphone
I might need to wipe the lens
I don't have any wide-angle lens as well
I think that's gonna be the next thing that I get for this thing
[WIND NOISE]
But man it's cold and the winds are quite strong. Let me show how you how bad the winds - I dont know if it's coming across - because of the small screen - so I don't know how bad the weather is coming across - let me show you a shot here.
"I'm PeppaPig Reek!"
[WIND NOISE]
Yeah?
[WIND NOISE]
[WIND NOISE]
So anyway that's - This is pretty much the most extreme weather that we're gonna get here in the UK this year
So I'll leave in the description - I'll say if the automated pocket has died forever for good
And if it hasn't I put that in the description as well
I hope this video has helped if it has - it'll be lovely if you give me a thumbs up - just to let me know someone reached this point of the video

Osmo Pocket RIP.
