Lucas Vaskange – Infinite Zoom
An evening pause: This has been going around, but with a French narration that has no translation. The version below overlays a pleasant music track that I think enhances it nicely.

Category: The Evening Pause
A nightly pause from the news to give the reader/viewer a bit of classic entertainment.
Formula 1 crash right after start
An evening pause: This short analysis of a spectacular race track crash right at the start of a Formula 1 race illustrates well the sophistication of modern technology, not only in protecting the driver’s life but in providing the information for reconstructing the cause of the accident. And it all happens during an ordinary sports broadcast.
You’ll probably want to watch this more than once to catch how one car gets flipped over on its back.

The Jacksons – Shake Your Body
An evening pause: It seems we are on a string of 1970s tunes. The clothes surely date them all. As for this video, I can only feel sorrow watching a young vibrant Michael Jackson, before he destroyed himself.
