Water hammer videos

Some videos I've found over the past few years regarding what steam / water hammer in a steam system really is.
Many of us talk about it, but actually seeing it makes things far easier to understand.

The glass systems are really informative. Affiliated Steam on Chicago's south side, has a glass piped training facility that you can see the operation of traps, water hammer and all sorts of neat stuff. The one video claims they have the only glass piped facility...not!The Steam Whisperer (Formerly Boilerpro)
