Friday November 27th over 1,2 million Norwegians watched parts of “Bergensbanen” on NRK2. The longest documentary ever? At least the longest we have made, almost 7 1/2 hours, showing every minute of the scenic train ride between Bergen on the Norwegian west coast, crossing the mountains to the capital of Oslo.

Here’s a 10 minute video, from Finse where the scenes from Hoth in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back were filmed.

yeah, i traveled that route and remember it being really beautiful. that's why i'm glad to see the recording.

haha, it is rather pretty. Too bad we're all slaves and only have memories of when things used to feel real, like when we were six.
