Have a look at the mountain right at the start of the clip, you can actually see it break away and start its descent!!

the end of this video reminded me of the movie: Inception (2010). Here's the idea. You place one decision making person in the first scanner, then the second one {{{seeing the same market and getting the decision of the first person}}} in the second scanner.
Now if we watch after second person we should have a 12sec prediction :lol:

I watched that documentary when it first went out. Fascinating stuff.

Here is a funny story and a bit crazy: -

Father-of-three aged FIFTY is asked to prove he is over 18 while buying alcohol at Morrison's
