Dear O-listers:

Some months ago, I remember a good quality internet video (youtube, perhaps) demonstrating a simple rectangle propeller while running (jogging) in public parks and nice places, or just getting advantage of the wind... It was quite beautiful. It included instructions for the propeller (a single tray, below I describe it better).

Now, I just can't find it. Perhaps someone there on the O-list has seen it and remembers it... Or something similar. If it is so, please let me know.

I have found many videos of people demonstrating a smaller version of that propeller with cigarette paper (it spins nicely), but I am interested in the running (jogging) application.


Just to explain what model am I talking about, it is folded with any rectangle (say, 10cm x 15cm), just folding up some paper all around the perimeter to form a tray. If you put your finger in the middle of the back side of the tray and start running, it spins nicely, as shown in these videos:

The video I remember was professionally edited and contained no spoken text, just music.

Thank you so much in advance.
