In this article we would like to present a selection of entertaining episodes from the life of lighthouses.

Let's start with a video adaptation of the famous story about the radio conversations of an American ship. If someone is not familiar yet, then before watching it is better to read original story, because The video was filmed for other purposes and of course there is none of that humor in it.

Next I would like to continue with another humorous video

And in continuation, a very heartwarming cartoon about the difficult work of a lighthouse. Very well done. Authors 5 points!

  • Another French cartoon about a lighthouse keeper and a strange insect that comes to the rescue in difficult times!

Video clips

Sings about the lighthouse Nightwish is a Finnish metal band that performs songs primarily in English. It was founded in 1996 in the city of Kitey. Nightwish's early work featured a combination of female operatic vocals from former vocalist Tarja Turunen and a heavy power metal atmosphere. This style is most often defined as power metal and symphonic metal. The voice of current vocalist Anette Olzon is significantly different from the previous voice of the group. Despite the fact that in their home country they achieved success after the first single, world recognition came to them only after the albums “Oceanborn” (1998) and “Wishmaster” (2000), with videos that were successful on famous TV channels.

Old man on the seashore

At the end of time

He looks at the horizon

In the sea wind

Island in the grip of a storm

Rusted Anchor

And a nameless ship

Haven't changed over the years

A boundless sea for an unknown exile

He lights a beacon, his light is on the edge of the whole world

Showing the way, giving birth to hope in their hearts

Those who return home from distant lands

This is for the long forgotten

Light at the edge of the world

And the horizon itself will cry

The tears that he left

In the past a long time ago

Albatross high in the sky

Immerses him in dreams

About the time when he

Wasn't invisible to the world

Princess in the tower

Children playing in the fields

Life gave him all this:

On the island of the universe

Now his love is a memory

Like a ghost wandering in the fog

He will raise his sails for the last time

To say goodbye to the world with this

The anchor will be thrown into the water

And below is the seabed

There's grass on his shoes

And on the menacing face there is a smile

This is for the long forgotten

Light at the edge of the world

And the horizon itself will cry

The tears that he left

In the past a long time ago

Lighthouses and advertising

Advertising about the Meganom lighthouse and the lighthouse. When I first learned about this idea from advertisers at the beginning of October, and after 2 months you already see the result in the form of such a wonderful video, realizing how not easy it was to organize and do it all. Congratulations to the Why Not Production team on their success and to everyone in the lighthouse and maritime community who helped them. Oleg Ponomarenko certainly made history with his participation! There is one more video on the theme of lighthouses. Happy to help! It’s doubly nice that the guys filmed such a recognizable and hard-to-find Meganomsky. And I take this opportunity to say hello to caretaker Yuri Nikolaevich.
