Lightning Strike
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Re: Lightning Strike
The puff of smoke to the right is interesting. I'd be curious to know what was going on under the ground around there!

Re: Lightning Strike
Maybe it's actually a mini missile launch from a underground silo and the puff of smoke is from an exhaust vent. The key clue is the light that goes out on the control room shed when the countdown reaches 00:00:00.

Re: Lightning Strike
Is this supposed to repeat over and over every second? The puff of smoke to the right looks more like a tombstone popping up and down from the ground. I'd appreciate this better if it were slowed down.
