A section from Leni Riefenstahl's film of the 1936 Olympics. A supreme example of editing where physics are transcended and somehow weightlessness is achieved.

she does a very good job of making it look like they're falling from the heavens

If you're going to steal videos off my website and post them to youtube, the least you can do is give me credit.

Anyone know a modern day film like this one.
With slow motion athletes or dancers or whatever.
-
was never the splash that interested Leni, but the dive
-
Like dive-bombing Stukas! Perfect beauty!
-
Nazi vs rest of the world fight is unavoidable even in comments to a movie featuring acrobatic diving, or whatever the sport is called... Sick morons. Nazizm promoted hatred. Reading your posts, it appears free market democracy is no better at all.

@Nemesis816 You are a good and healthy man. This is perfectly natural. :)

WOW. this was, undoubtedly, one of the most breath taking sequences. She really captured the stature of being an Olympiad--and the acrobatic nature of diving.

For the first 3 minutes I was kind of dozing, but then at 2:56 ZOMG 0_0
-
It gives me a masterrace boner.

Consider this done back in 1936, Leni's talent made my jaw drop. She was a genius through and through. Nothing any idiotic comments can tarnish that.
