Having played it again with "audio only" in mind, I wonder if it should be classified "Adults Only" viewing:-)

Struggling? She was giggling and loved it!
(One of the guys in the office reckons it's more entertaining if you
just listen to it, without the video)
She also did a magnificent job of holding the camera still

For information, the 'victim' is a glider pilot. The launch was very
late in the day, so we decided to do some aerobatics to get back on the
ground before last light

I don't know if she subscribes to this list, but if she does, she may
like to add her own observations.
