So I take it you're not aware that video has been successfully annoying Breitling.com visitors for the last six or so months?

I beg to differ. At least for me I have never watched the video all the way through. I guess I always hit the skip, or it was too slow to watch till the end.

Well, it was having to hit the skip that I was referring to when I said it was "successfully annoying" people. I've heard more than one member here grouse about it. You would think they'd put a cookie in your temp file so they can recognize if you've been there before and not make you wait for it to load every friggin' time you visit the website.

I think that the one on Breitling's site is a slightly shorter version Jackson but been a while since I watched it last.

Hello there,

And at last "the making of" the film from airbornefilms.fr

Let me know if you want it translated from French to English, I could try...

Hiya!

Shows how little attention I've been devoting to the forums and Breitling I guess!

Sorry for annoying you all over again

I actually really enjoyed it as yesterday was the first time I'd seen it. :superman: I guess i should have used the search function and popped in Annoying as a search :popo:

Mmmmm aeroplanes and watches......oh yes and her too.

Ive got a really annoying one about the Breitling Wingwalkers too but won't dare posting!!

I just timed it. It's actually a lot shorter: 30 seconds compared to 2:15. So I guess Damnfoolman can't be chided too much for linking to the full-length version for those of us who want to see it. Personally, given that I have to contend with that damn video any time I want to see Breitling's website (which, admittedly, isn't too much these days, given their current designs), the full-length one is just that much more of a headache. But then, I'm a self-admitted curmudgeon, so consider the source. :wink:

The problem with the one on the website, besides taking 10 seconds to load before you could hit "skip," was it didn't really play, just started, stopped, skipped, and froze. It's better now, but Breitling needs to higher a human factors engineer for their IT department.

:yeahthat I actually like the video, but the jerky quality and the fact that you can't skip it quicker when you want to on the Breitling site, does irritate a bit. BUT, I do think that girl has an amazing pair of legs, so I can usually cope with watching 10 seconds before hitting the skip button! Nice post Davey! :thumbsup:

Am I the only one who thinks the legs on that model are just a little skinny? Not that I'd kick her out of my car for smoking crack. I'm just sayin'.

I'm really surprised by the quality of both videos. The footage is crystal clear and some of the shots are really incredible but neither seems well put together or edited.
