You guys wanna hear what I'm hearing? 8)

**MOTION SICKNESS POTENTIAL>>>...it's from my eyes from a camera in a pair of sunglasses, and all the movements from my head are captured...motion sickness IS a possibility. A friend of mine had to leave and sit down feeling sick. Seriously.**

It was 24 minutes long, I cut it down to 10. Enjoy! I hope...:wink:
