It might sound strange, but I’ve always been fascinated by a washing machine. A few times growing up, my mother and I made trips to the laundromat when our family’s washer or dryer broke and each time I sat in front of the front-loading washing machines and watched as clothes, water and bubbles splashed around.

Years later, I get to see the view from the other side, thanks to a video posted by electronics store employee and YouTuber zfeydo.

By placing a GoPro HERO 3 inside the back of a front-loading washer, we get to see what it looks like when you’re attached to the back of it while spinning around.

According to the video’s description, zfeydo tossed the GoPro inside of a demo cycle, which is shorter than usual, lacks the clothing and maxed out at 1200 rpm.

The video is extremely trippy and should be watched with extreme caution by anyone who suffers from epilepsy-related issues.

While not as euphoric as the above video, here’s another washing machine GoPro video while there are actually clothes inside. Also, this camera appears to be mounted onto the door, giving a stationary perspective.
