:bowdown: :bowdown: I take my hat off to that man - must take him so much longer to shoot a video for the benefit of others, rather than just crack on and do it ... :clap: :clap:

Not really, he has blocked viewers from other countries except the UK.

Warner-Chapel is a music rights company - He's probably using a copyright audio track that means the video is blocked here..

That is strange as they all use about 6 seconds of music at the intro and the blocked video is no different, other than it''s been blocked because of it

Is Rock and Roll by Led Zeppelin banned in America then.
Actually thats about the only difference I can see as none of his other videos (that i've seen anyway) play anything other than the intro music.
My wife's just divorced me because I wouldn't open the car door for her!
To be fair I panicked and swam straight for the surface.

What a great video. This guy makes a difficult job look easy. And does it with humour too

If he wants to work on any of my Elan's and make a video clip he is more than welcome :smt023

I just wish I had half of his mechanical skills :bowdown:

He may pop on here OR is it worth posting a request in the footnotes of the video on youtube ? he may even send it to you ... he comes across as a helpful chap

I was able to scrounge a copy of the file so not a huge deal, but was surprised to get that notice when all of his other projects played fine.
