War Stories
Landing on a carrier at night on a pitching deck! This is positively a nail biting experience. Each clip is about 10 minutes long; however, the tension builds as the landing difficulty increases and the time moves rapidly. The clips are sequential so you need to see both to see the ending. You'll find yourself holding your breath.
Amazing videos of extraordinary men and women landing jets on a significantly pitching deck. Carrier - Landing on a Pitching Deck Pt. 1 & Pt. 2

Hong Kong at Dusk
Place your cursor at the top of the photo. You will notice it is 6:10 PM. Bring the mouse down slowly over the photo without pressing the button on the mouse. Do not right or left click. Night time appears, the lights come on, and at 7:40 PM, it's dark! I think this is photo technology at its best!

For those of you who use a table saw, you will find this fascinating, and for those who do not, it is not time to start.You are going to enjoy this one and say ouch!! Watch all of it!
If you have never seen "Time Warp," it's a show all about super-duper slow motion cameras capturing things we take for granted and never see as they really are. In this case, they take photos of this guy's new invention. What a combination! Audio level may be low. SAWSTOP ON TIMEWARP.
