How do the Camera People on Race to Survive keep up with the Contestants?

293 viewsOther

I mean the contestants on this show in particular are insanely athletic. I know on similar shows they place cameras along pre-determined routes, but these contestants are literally making their own paths, pushing down bush to get through. Then, I thought it – could be drones? However a lot of the camera shots are somewhat shaky, making it seen like a cameraperson is getting the shot. Are these camerpeople just also insanely athletic or are there other techniques the production team is utilizing to follow these contestants?

Camera people for certain sports (e.g. running, skiing, sky diving) are just as athletic as the people they are filming.

E.g. see this camera man keeping up with sprinters:
