Covid 19 Stress Relief

Post by a nameless entity » Tue Sep 01, 2020 3:07 pm

Here is a link to a four hour documentary about a powerboat ride north along the last 32 km (about 20 miles) of the Rideau Canal towards Ottawa, Ontario.
It was made with "Go Pro" and "Drone" footage. I've been wanting to post this video for 2 or 3 months, and now that the library is open again, I finally can.

If all you need is a distraction from the added stress of Covid 19 in your life, then watch any action movie you like instead.

However, if you would really like to just relax and chill out for a while, then watch this movie. Just sit back, relax, and let the story unwind. I've watched this movie on TV Ontario 3 times, and by the end I really did feel much better. It just plain works. :)

p.s. The larger your screen, and the better your sound system, the more awesome this movie becomes. ;)

It said I could not watch it due to my Geographical Restrictions. I setup my VPN to say I was in Montreal and then watched some of it. Nice video as far as I can tell. It reminded me of Houston after 3 days of Hurricane Harvey minus all of the houses and buildings. Glad my VPN works too!

Aaaaughhhh! I'm going to need to watch this movie again. :(

That new Harley Davidson dealership that just started up 2 years ago and is only 2 or 3 miles from my house, has thrown in the towel thanks to the Covid 19 drop in business. :? :cry:

So much for my fantasy of winning the lotto, buying that cool new HD trike I want, and having a dealer within walking distance of my home! Bummer! :evil: :lol:

Nameless,

I'm selling my mint 2012 Kawasaki KLR 650 and my mint 2007 Yamaha Virago 250 and buying a near flawless 2007 Honda XR 650R that has been plated so it is street legal!

Please see the footage below. Turn it up so you get the full cinematic music effect and so you can hear the narrator. Pay particular attention to each time near the end when Johnny gets down and rides on the beach. Note that they did not speed up the film. That is real time! Note also that I have watched the whole movie and while Johnny didn't completely catch the other guy based on this footage, he did end up winning the race when it was all over.

Enjoy!

Saw this today and I shook my head at it. SO I blurred out the other stories (so as not to distract) from the typo.

Yeah, typos do make people look foolish...

...some more than others.

Realistically, I'm not entirely sure Junior did test positive. I think they may be claiming he's asymptomatic to cover up they finally forced him to goto rehab.

They've made another film, this one is called "Tripping the Niagara". It's nice, and very informative.

Okay, they've made a 3rd movie. Same as with the others, just kick back and relax. Drink a beer or glass of wine, and just chill out and watch the gentle action, as the stress leaves your body. Watch the whole thing for the best effect. :wink: :)
