Life is full of surprises. Every day, all sorts of things occur that defy our expectations, like Donald Trump becoming president or me watching a video of a frisbee miraculously rolling across an ice pond for 90 seconds without falling over.
“I filmed this while out skating on Great Pond in Cape Elizabeth, Maine,” Shea Gunther wrote on YouTube. “The disc moved entirely due to the wind.”
It’s hard to know exactly why the video is so mesmerizing. There’s something soothing about just watching a frisbee glide on its side across ice for a minute as Gunther and a friend skate behind and aside it. But there’s also the fact that it just keeps going, as if propelled by some ultimate-loving spirit. Once the video hit the 30 second mark you get the sense it might be CGI but nope, it’s just the wind. Amazing.
