Sailplane videos, of course!

Or, search YouTube for anything by Bruno Vassel!

Glider aerobatics!  
Italian Champion Luca Bertossio: [Fox Glider Aerobatic Airshow Flight - Smoke & Flares - Luca Bertossio! AFW2014 - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImW8Kydqtc4)  
According to Wikipedia, this guy teaches glider aerobatics at a flight school not far from me (just a ways north of Sacramento). I’ll bet he charges $400 an hour!

Johan Gustaffson: [SZD-59 Acro Glider Night FIREWORK Aerobatic Display - Custom Lighting - Johan Gustaffson AFW2015 - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQxNWp5w91Q)

Dante Otero (no, I don’t know him, he was before my time there) filmed his first few lessons at Byron. The instructors (not named, but I recognize their voices) are all people I’ve had lessons with, and in the same glider too. This makes it personal! Watch for Mt. Diablo (prominent twin-peaked mountain in Bay Area) in these clips:  
Intro Lesson: [My first glider flight! Grob G103a Twin II - Byron Airport, CA - Low res - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAQy6POtmkc)  
Lesson 1: [NCSA - Lesson 1 - Grob G103a Twin II - Byron Airport, CA - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXn5advJoyI)  
Lesson 2: [NCSA - Lesson 2 - Grob G103a Twin II - Byron Airport, CA - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omIuvkxetI8)  
Lesson 3: [NCSA - Lesson 3 - Grob G103a Twin II - Byron Airport, CA - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtvURu094J0)

Modesty (hah!) forbids me from linking my own video, but I’ve linked to it several times already in various threads over the past year.

I follow a bunch of channels on China, on science and futurism, on engineering, history (and some alternative history) and some gaming channels as well. I also, perhaps oddly, follow a bunch of channels on forging and blacksmithing, with an emphasis on historical recreations.

“Only in …” videos. “Only in India” are particularly good.

I can literally watch [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9K18CGEeiI&ab_channel=itisamystery) a dozen times in a row and it will never not make me smile and laugh.

Sovereign citizens being Tazer’ed, boxing, and dog memes.

[Juggernaut Training Systems](https://www.youtube.com/user/CWSmith52) has a lot of podcasts and articles on strength training, including both powerlifting and Olympic lifting. It is run by Chad Wesley Smith and Max Aita, and what they have to say is generally interesting even if I don’t agree.

And judo, of course, but less so now that the rules changed (again).

There are a number of channels and series that I follow on youtube, but I have to be in the right mood for some of them, and could even say that some of them have grown old.

OTOH, just randomly poking about youtube turns over little gems like[this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jifw8dC5yTM), and that’ll never get old. (The discovering of such gems, not this one in particular.)

I would appreciate it if people don’t link to videos with just the word “this” and no description of what we’re clicking. Ain’t nobody got time for that.

I’ve been watching [Athlean-X](https://www.youtube.com/user/JDCav24/featured) for new alternatives to workout routines. I’ll watch a couple before going to sleep at night and then try a new routine or single new exercise the next morning in the gym.

Also never miss [Doug Demuro](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsqjHFMB_JYTaEnf_vmTNqg) car videos.

Numberphile

Computerphile

Bosnian Bill’s lockpicking channel

Couple of those electronics guys – there’s one who buys cheap Chinese shit at takes it apart, and then there’s an Australian guy. You’d think I’d remember their names, but I don’t. They always show up in my Youtube suggestions. Oh, Ben Heck, too.

Any of a variety of retro-computer/gaming ones (Kim Justice, Mamemeister, 8-bit keys)

Music theory/education ones (Rick Beato, Adam Neely, Aimee Nolte)

Occasionally I like to watch various types of disaster video. Usually though, I watch the type that I find linked in threads here, no particular type unless “SDMB Thread Linked” is a type of YouTube video. I’ve spent many hours wandering down the video rabbit hole and wandered far from the beginning topic/genre/subject/category while doing so from a link in a thread here.
