If you haven’t seen this epic drone video yet, it should help you get over the Monday blues. (And even if you’ve already seen it, it’s definitely worth watching again for a few laughs.)

In the clip, newbie drone pilot Zwier Spanjer takes his brand new DJI Phantom 2 drone for some aerial maneuvers when its battery starts to die. Just before the sputtering drone splashes down in a small pond, Spanjer has the wherewithal to take a quick dip into the drink to save it.

Does he? You’ll have to watch the video clip to the end to catch its stunning conclusion.
