Notting Hill Carnival, London, UK, 26th August 2024, Samba Dancers in Blue - Slow-motion.


Equipment used: DJI Osmo Pocket 3 @ 120fps slowed down 4x to 30fps.


The music is Doug Maxwell - Carnival De Brazil [NCS -YAL] (Youtube Audio Library).

What an amazing event.  

Such a shame the crime was rife there with nearly 400 arrests - has that 27 year old mother who was severely stabbed in front of her daughter survived as the last report is that she was in intensive care fighting for her life?

Very cool.   

Colourful. certainly.

Maybe I've just been lucky, but I've been going for years, never seen any problems or arrests, touch wood.  Not saying it doesn't happen but I guess a lot of the time it's between gangs and at night.
However, if "400 arrests" are reported in the MSM, it must be true!

MSM LOL - those reporting outside the MSM are stating far worse stats - check out X for that. Anyway, I've seen the live videos on YT and it's a real eye opener - would you like me to post some on here?

Yes, post up 300 videos of arrests at the carnival to prove your stat.

It's not 'my' stat - it's the metropolitan police. Ask them why they published that figure... Ignorance is bliss I guess.
