Over the years I've had the pleasure of flying my drones over Niagara Falls for various projects. I finally decided to edit all the best clips together into one highlight video in 4K.
Getting drone clearance to fly over the falls is not easy. In fact it's the hardest location I've ever had to get clearance for. After getting a filming permit from Niagara Parks tourism, I then had to get further clearance from Transport Canada showing them my flight plan and safety precautions. After that I had to contact all the local operations to let them know of my activity, including the Niagara police, helicopter tours, bridge authority, Hornblower Niagara City Cruises, Maid of the mist, and more. And before even starting this process you need to obtain the advanced drone license from Nav Canada.
This video also features aerial drone video of Niagara Speedway Go Karts, the Skylon Tower, Clifton Hill and Niagara SkyWheel. And in terms of the falls, I have the American falls and Canadian falls captured. The largest of the three is Horseshoe Falls, which straddles the international border of the two countries. It is also known as the Canadian Falls. The smaller American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls lie within the United States.
For one of shoots I had gotten clearance to fly my fpv drone over the falls, but that project ran late into the evening and the quality of the fpv camera in low light, made it un-useable, so I didn't end of diving the falls with my fpv drone.

I filmed this video on multiple drones over the years including the DJI Mavic 3 Pro and more recently the DJI Inspire 3, which is my current drone.
