Will make you look pretty stupid, but a pretty
nifty solution for stabilizing your camera.

Peter Jason:
tie the camera to a heavy brick. The weight of the assembly
will resist vibrations.
Sandman:
I sort of have the idea that in the idea in the link, the
stabilization will be from two points, not one. A dangling brick
will most likely make the camera more unstable, and even one
string you step on will only give it perpendicular
stabilization, while this three-point idea will give you both
lateral and perpendicular stabilization.
Peter Jason:
The camera is tied firmly to the brick; it doesn't dangle at all.
Oh for crying out aloud! Buy a damn tripod, monopod, or a decent
stabilized lens.
Hear hear, then you won't look quite so stupid as in the link
