Cruise the Strait of Magellan in less than two minutes
In case you've always wanted to cruise the Strait of Magellan -- admittedly, a minor fantasy of mine for a long time -- here is a time-lapse video of just that. Pretty cool.

Great video. I had read that the Strait of Magellan was very stormy, but to my uneducated eye, it appears that they were fortunate to have a smooth weather in traversing it.
We will soon be reaching the 500th anniversary of Magellan crossing the straits- 1520.
