Just like a captivating story, the secret to a perfect selfie is getting the right angle. This can, at times, prove impossible due to pesky human limitations. Arm lengths are pretty much a fixed type deal, after all. Since the future is amazing, however, your photos will now know no bounds. Enter: Selfie On A Stick, which is exactly what it sounds like: a stick... for selfies.
Using it is super easy, all you have to do is: 1) Connect your iPhone/Android/camera to the stick's corresponding Bluetooth remote. 2) Strap your device into place. 3) Adjust the stick’s length to your sweet spot somewhere in its 9-42-inch range. 4) Set your desired timer length. 5) Make sure your hair looks cute. 6) Press the button on your remote. The result: self-documented perfection.
With seemingly every tourist in NYC toting these guys around, we set out to find more, um, calculated ways to use the Selfie on a Stick than just to capture popular landmarks. Check out the slideshow above for pure, unadulterated fun.
