The absolute pinnacle of cooking video chefs today has to be J. Kenji Lopez-Alt[0], in large part because of his use of first person view.

He straps a go-pro to this head and you see what he sees while he cooks. There's no cuts or retakes (unless he's waiting for something to cook or gets interrupted by his kids). There's no swaps. And it's all real- he's cooking dinner for his family.

And it doesn't always go perfectly. (See the excellent video titled "Doesn't matter, still pizza").

I'm a better cook for what I've learned watching him cook.
