I can feel my blood pressure dropping while watching these. :) Thanks!

It's Lucia again!

Here's the Swedish public service TV Lucia celebration of 2022:

I believe it's accessible worldwide.

Gräfsnäs is a locality in Västergötland, as well as a ruined castle (Gräfsnäs Castle Ruin).

Today marks the start of this year's Great Moose Migration, an annual 24/7 slow TV livestream of outdoor scenes near the Ångerman river as the moose of the area attempt to cross it on their yearly migration to the summer pastures. It can be watched worldwide on Twitch (until May 2) and SVT Play (until May 7).

I can only imagine the thrill of, in 1023, having a merchant ship from the East India Company of the XVIII century come to the rescue. The pictures are amazing.

That would almost make losing your rudder worth it.
