If your work commute ever featured bumper-to-bumper traffic, would you prefer navigating a boiling waterway, coursing with powerful currents and studded with rocks on either side?

Because if you did… you might consider a career as a professional whitewater kayaker, just like GoPro Million Dollar Challenge 2020 winner Matthias Weger.

To give you a taste of what a normal ‘day in the office’ looks like for him, in this video, Weger takes us on a thrilling, first-person kayaking trip with friends along a Pakistani stretch of the extraordinary Indus River.

Suffice it to say that the action, like the current, is unrelenting!

After logging over 29,000 submissions from 125 countries, GoPro’s 2020 Million Dollar Challenge awarded 56 winners $17,857 each, celebrating their use of the brand’s newest flagship camera: the Hero 9 Black.
