OK, here's another, this time without the bad language:rolleyes: it's a container ship flexing in heavy weather. At 13sec and 1:03sec they film inside a long coridor and you can see the ship bending as it goes through the waves!

They're designed to do that. If they weren't, they'd break in half, or worse. Ditto concrete ships - really.

Those are the BEST places to put lighthouses. Otherwise, why have lighthouses at all? Let ships crash on the rocks instead?:oo:

I figured as much, I'd just never seen it before. I imagine it would be a little unnerving the first few times.:oo:

Nah, didn't lose much. Sometimes I'm too "practical," I guess.
And bravo for the additions.
Cheers,
