I love the way the fins flutter at about 10 sec.

I can't even explain how I came across this, other than idle YouTube browsing.

There's a lot of these WRC to be found on Youtube, but this one as the distinct advantage of not being set to irrelevant and annoying "techno" music...

"fake?" 2nd best tag ever. Yeah, and David Copperfield can really levitate....

I'm the one who posted this video. Came across it while idly browsing the sci/tech section in Youtube. I have absolutely no connections to the makers (don't even know who they are). Seems to be linked to a US History Channel contest, but since I'm north of the border, I'm not familiar with it (Haven't checked US HC site yet).

TV Total (pronounced "T Fau Total") is a German talk/comedy show (focusing mainly on what is going on on German TV), with skits such as this one (a feature called "Rabe in Gefahr", or " Rabe in Danger"). ?Stephan? Rabe (featured is this clip) is the the host of the show. I used to love to watch this show when I lived in Berlin. Although far from genial, it is a notch above commercial fare on German TV and one does not need to be fluent in German to get the jokes.
