The other day I watched 'The Impossible', the film about the 2004 tsunami. I've seen it before but for some reason it caught my attention again.

One thing lead to another and I ended up watching videos of the 2011 Japan tsunami. At the time I had no TV or Internet so had no idea of the scale of the problem, it was just something I heard on the radio.

I can't stop watching these videos now Sad

There's a young woman who does unsolved mysteries like Isdal Woman, Plaza Hotel Oslo woman etc. She's good.

Hair & make up videos and reviews.

Also when I've had a bad or stressful time, epic fail videos. Endless young dudes thinking it's going to be a good idea to skateboard down a metal bannister by concrete steps or jump from pole to pole. ShockConfused Surely not just me? Blush

@ChiefClerkDrumknott I'm not surprised he got botulism to be fair, some of that food is incredibly questionable "it smells so bad... I think I'll eat it" and I'm sat here like "what!? Don't eat THAT!!!" But you're right! He'll definitely survive! Lol.

I love baby announcements and birth videos because it's cute (not the latter lol) and makes me excited for my next baby.
Weird and I have never told anyone else. I don't watch regularly just when it comes up on my suggestions

SuperMeerkat · 21/11/2019 05:37

I’ll watch pretty much any 10 ten videos.

ASMR!

nakedavengeragain · 21/11/2019 06:22

Rollercoasters!

SLO mo videos

Skiing fails

Time lapses! My favourites are things growing, things going mouldy and a time lapse of a traverse of the suez canal

Pier runners and misses. People who mis time when their cruise ship leaves and hoof it down kilometre long piers while the ship is hooting and being videoed by other passengers

Near death fail videos (people jumping off things and and narrowly missing a mountain for example)

Slow mo squashing things under car tyres (eg coke bottles, bouncy balls)

People putting things in giant crushing machines ( golf balls were good)

This list has made me look like I'm very odd.

I have a day off and am doing nothing, absolutely nothing.

On the basis of this thread I have got sucked into watching American ladies cleaning their lovely homes from top to bottom. It is incredibly therapeutic. Although when I see them walking around their tiled floors barefoot I get all sidetracked thinking about how I could never do that where I live because my feet would freeze...
