A tripod is a portable three-legged frame, used as a platform for supporting the weight and maintaining the stability of some other object. A tripod provides stability against downward forces and horizontal forces and movements about horizontal axes. The positioning of the three legs away from the vertical centre allows the tripod better leverage for resisting lateral forces.
First attested in English in the early 17th century, the word tripod comes via Latin tripodis (GEN of tripus), which is the romanization of Greek τρίπους (tripous), "three-footed" (GEN τρίποδος, tripodos), ultimately from τρι- (tri-), "three times" (from τρία, tria, "three") + πούς (pous), "foot". The earliest attested form of the word is the Mycenaean Greek 𐀴𐀪𐀠, ti-ri-po, written in Linear B syllabic script.
Many cultures, including the ancient peoples of China and Greece, used tripods as ornaments, trophies, sacrificial altars, cooking vessels or cauldrons, and decorative ceramic pottery. Tripod pottery have been part of the archaeological assemblage in China since the earliest Neolithic cultures of Cishan and Peiligang in the 7th and 8th millennium BC. Sacrificial tripods were found in use in ancient China usually cast in bronze but sometimes appearing in ceramic form. They are often referred to as "dings" and usually have three legs, but in some usages have four legs.

A lot of people want to know whether a cheap tripod can offer up the same benefits as something a bit pricier. After all, they all have 3 legs, so why shouldn't it? We put a selection of cheapo tripods to the test to see how well the compare to, say, a Gitzo tripod(http://bit.ly/GitzoTripod).

We're born and then the end is nigh
We live, we love, we laugh, we cry
We get old, we regret, we die
But not I!
I won't go into the night
I have faced a dragon's bite
When the reaper comes, I'll fight
I won't die!
Never fade away
Oh no, not I!
He will never die
Who has the heart
Heart of a fighter
Heart of a fighter
Heart of a fighter
Heart of a fighter
Heart of a fighter
