Was going to post the same - it gets really bad at 4:30. Cleaning up this mess is going to cost several GDP's.

Opera displays a Blank Page, Chrome attempts to play the video with no controls and Firefox tries do download the mp4 file.

What on earth is going on here?

EDIT: it was just taking too damn long. Could be my connection, though.

And somehow we think we are masters of the planet. When nature's true forces come to bear there isn't much we have ever built that stands in the way.

Here's to wishing all those that survived a speedy recovery and my condolences to those who know people who didn't make it.

Although a very serious situation, couldn't help but note Paul Kedrosky's observation:

My Firefox (3.6.13 on OS X) decided to overlay the video extending it outside the page bounds and covering the status bar, and it will not go away now that I closed the tab, remaining overlaid over all the other pages when I switch tabs.

A-, Would not click again.

Is there a link to this video with a player/context? Direct link to the .mp4 is unusual and somewhat hard to share.

To be fair, theres nothing of nature's that stands in nature's way. It ruins it's own shit too. It's all entropy right?
