I was pretty surprised with that really.
If that hasn't convinced you to buy one, have a read around this

Just today at work i made a Stainless steel pole for my camera, Using air/water fittings to screw together it breaks down to about 40cm which is quite portable as you can see, and can be screwed together and extended to ~140cm, also have some T peice fitting so i can offset the camera 90degrees to the pole, so hopefully i can get some good undercar shots, and under the boat.Still need to drill+bolt the camera mount into the end but.
