Dancing with the Huli Wigmen
This was a surprisingly not-so-difficult clip to get. I arrived in Tari, Papua New Guinea with no plans or arrangements and no idea what I was doing.
I met Patrick on the runway and told him I hoped to find the Huli Wigmen. He said "no problem" and we hopped in a truck.
I visited some Huli villages and wandered around the area all morning. Patrick took me to the Wigmen's village and introduced me. It took them an hour or so to get dressed up, and then we had to sit around waiting for the rain to stop.
It stopped, then this happened, then I paid them for their time, and that was that.

Whale Pestering in Tonga
Is this sort of thing harmful to the whales? I don't know. It's delicate. I think it could be, if they were hounded incessantly day after day. But the local operators are pretty careful, and if the whales don't want to be bothered, it's pretty easy for them to take off.
I think whales face much bigger problems than me -- like how climate change will impact their food supply. And there's value in simply reminding people that these big fellas exist.

Ill-conceived Coin Experiment
I went to Magic Mountain in Valencia, California this weekend with some friends from Australia. We decided to find out if a coin will really hover above your hand while dropping on the Freefall ride. We miscalculated the effect of plummeting inside a giant steel box. The camera fell to the floor but was, fortunately, undamaged.
Thanks to Brendan Watts for the ace camerawork.
