Very unusual crash between two racing superbikes

antonye says...

Looks like he outbraked himself.

It's lovely to see such very rare footage of the mating ritual of the lesser-striped Yamaha. Almost hypnotic in their twirling, they embrace in a feverish dance, spinning wildly as they lock horns. The air is electric as they tussle until, almost unnoticed, the male lets out a triumphant puff of blue smoke to signal he is finished. Finally they collapse on the floor, still panting for breath. Such graceful creatures.

The real King's Speech - Rare footage/audio of George VI

Hybrid says...

No there hasn't. Queen Elizabeth II has ruled since 1952.>> ^Enzoblue:

Educate me. Has there been a king in England since I've been alive? (1964). I've only ever seen/heard the Queen. Waaaup with that?

Rare footage of eagles fighting in mid-air

>> ^ant:
>> ^Kagenin:
That's some of the worst nature show voice-over I think I've ever heard - like he's speaking to a 5-year-old.

All are like that.


Not if its British by David Attenborough it's not.

I cant stand the voice overs in american nature docs like this. it just grates.

Defining Vintage (Vintage Talk Post)

swampgirl says...

I see your point Jonny. My personal preference usually is the whole video be the original ...at least 20 years old. There are some compilations for documentaries and award shows that have footage hard to see anywhere else. I may have posted a few of those myself. There was a sift I posted of living in the 20s that was a compilation.

Hard call. But wouldn't it be nice to think of this channel as an archive of original old video?

What are your thoughts on this... Unless it contains rare footage prepared in such a way that we could never have seen it otherwise.... all content must be in original form?

I've been compiling vintage sifts into decades for a while. I'm hoping down the line there will be a way to incorporate the vintage channel into decades somehow. Maybe having the old sifts tagged will make that easier one day

Rare Frilled Shark Caught on Camera

Wumpus says...

This video shows rare footage of a frilled shark in shallow water. The frilled shark (Chlamydoselachus anguineus) is a primitive shark species, sometimes called a "living fossil" because it resembles extinct species of sharks. Frilled sharks are usually found at depths of around 2,000 feet, but this one somehow found its way into shallow water off the coast of Japan, where it was captured and taken to a nearby marine park. In poor condition, the shark died soon after this video was shot.
