IT is beautiful make me want to live there and be closer to stabiz to help me make SH3 movies or SH4 movies or SHwhatever Movies.

It is truly a beautiful country! You are all welcome to visit....

I think safe-keeper loves the tribute, since there is actually photos of Bergen city in the video.
I'll post a picture of my home town, Harstad, in the North of Norway hee, so you can see where i live:

And the "Adolf-cannon (The worlds largest land-based cannon), the thing Harstad is most proud of!

This mother of all cannons, called "Barbara", is the only one of four cannons that are made available to the public. It has a barrel diameter of 40,6 cm, and could fire a shell weighing 1080 kg all the way from Harstad to Narvik..
When the Germans retreated from Harstad, they burned all the documents explaining how to operate this beast. After the war (in 1956), some engineers managed to solve this problem, and they rigged the cannon for a test shot. Non of the engineers dared to stay inside the cannon when it was fired, so they rigged a remote firing-device and stood outside when the firing took place.
The result: Broken windows in the city located 3km away and bleeding from the ears of the people standing outside...
