    Thanks for sharing.... I love the discovery channel, and that video was one of the coolest things I've ever seen.

    Very cool! I prefer the scientific term "Brinicle" over "Finger of Death" but never-the-less quite fascinating!

    So I was telling my guy about this, and in turn he told me about something he saw today - tilt shift video:

    (also very cool if anyone's interested - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efR_jBSz-zk)

    Then we watch the icy finger one - and damned if he didn't get that Alec Baldwin - or "the guy from 30 Rock" as he refers to him - narrated.

    We watch, take it in, ooh and aahh.

    Then he says "it looks like the finger spooged all over the place"

    God I love him :mrgreen:
