Some offshore helicopter videos
Late evening arrival at Gorm
Shuttling between two platforms in heavy 18-20 m/s wind and about 6 meter waves. It is hard to see, but they are really that big, just looks small when everything is big :)

Wow.
Well, I think my video isn't even close, but interesting in historical perspective. That's Crimea several months before russian troops came in and annexed the peninsula. It shows how it's peaceful sometimes right before war begins.
In the video itself I'm riding cableway which leads to the Ai-Petri, top of Crimean mountains, 1234 meters above sea.

That is some long cable right there! What a long and beautiful ride.
A special prototype linear 8 cavity blow moulder machine for PET bottles, it was so impossible to get running stable that eventually it was discontinued and you can only get a 4 cavity today :)

Cavitation! I got to play with work's 16,000fps camera so I brought my cavitation-whisky-bottle of science that day! The bottle was filled with water then heated in a microwave (with the lid off) until it was boiling, then I put the lid on and cooled it off lowering the pressure to the point that it is almost just about to boil. One good whack on the cap and cavities break out.

Another video from offshore.
Here I am taking off from a hotel rig called Haven and fly around the Danish installation called Dan F, the largest and one of the oldest fields in the Danish part of the North Sea.
Feather-legged lace weaver (Uloborus plumipes) making a new web, what is different from normal spider webs is that this species uses carding with their legs, which can be seen working really fast in the video.
