    Now I understand this may not be amusing to everyone, but it's amusing as hell to me.

    It's a camera they've placed near a watering hole somewhere in Africa, on 24 hours a day, and you see animals just do their thing all day. I think it's brilliant, check it out:

    If this has been posted before, my bad. Otherwise, enjoy!

    At the place i stayed in Africa we were next to a water place, so everytime we watched out the window we could see animals drinking etc. It is funny to see a giraffe drink:D.

    Sabi sand was close to were i stayed.

    Nope... nobody scaring nobody... unless you find MONKEYS and WILDEBEASTS scary. I can guarantee you it won't scare you. It's been on for several minutes now. The quality is amazing. Play it, and tell me what you see... maybe we see the same thing at the time of your post.

    What's creepy is that there is someone moving the camera. Yeah, yeah, yeah... I know it's remotely...

    The sound is exceptional. It is 9 AM here, which is 5 PM is South Africa, so the sun is going down and the hole isn't crowded. There is a single monkey at the hole and I can here a splash with every gulp. Nice.

    make sure you have your dictionary handy so you can learn how to spell "hear". :D What, are you all in elementary school, or what, dudes? :p

    I noticed camera movement. A-Train, is that you moving the camera...? Quit being the jokester, man!!! :mad:

    Once, the camera moved to the side, and some monkeys were socializing with the wildebeasts... smoking... talking business... drinkin' coffee... then one monkey came over and said: "DUDES... DUDES!" and made a pointing motion to the camera... and they all dropped their items and got all "jungley". Good times.

    Coworker: What you watching?
    Me: African watering hole.
    Coworker: Cool
    Coworker: What?
    Me: Look
    Me: Its an actual watering hole in Africa. You can see animals.

    30 minutes pass.

    Me: We probably should get back to work.

    Not too interesting right now. Looks to be in the middle of the night, and I guess no one is thirsty.

    I saw something fly across the sky....shooting star? Then I saw something race across the ground, I thought it was going to turn around and come right back to the camera and be one of those things that screams and scares the hell out of you.

    Unfortunately, doesn't work for me. Looks like they have it stream in a way only accessible to Win. Oh, well. Sounds interesting though.
