    TLDW: skipped through until 25:47: the rail doesnt lengthen it just extends to the tops and sides.

    This could have been a 5 minute video. All that “Whooa”-Shots and leadup was not needed but is the American way of storytelling: Very talkative and getting amazed by every detail.

      That isn’t really true though. He never talked about ‘sun kink’ which is a thing. Apparently mostly due to poor ties and bedding.

      There’s a neat discussion I found on some forum
