Need Short Video of "Team Divers" for PADI Demo!

As part of my PADI Assistant Instructor Course I've been assigned to do a Micro Teaching Segment on "Being a Buddy." Just for kicks, I'd like to use some video of a DIR/UTD dive team dinking around on a recreational dive to show how "buddies" can manuever, communicate, etc. This would be best if it was in not so clear water -- just like we have here in Puget Sound.
Oh, and I need it by noon tomorrow.
If you have such video, please email me --

Yes, I needed it today and the short time line was because I didn't get the assignment until yesterday and then had to think about the assignment ("buddy skills") and decided a video clip would be a good teaching tool. I know there are many people who have posted videos so I was hoping someone had posted one that showed a good buddy team, diving together, in sync, using light communications, etc. I got a notice from a friend in LA that one of his YouTube vids might work and it did.
So, by the simple expedient of taking a movie of the YouTube clip, I now have a 60 second video to put into my presentation.
The power of the internet strikes again.

Also, given what was said in my PADI OW class about DIR by my instructor (it wasn't particularly flattering, I'll tell you that much), I think there's a certain poetic justice in using a DIR video in a PADI class.

The link to the video was posted and I don't have it anymore. If you are still interested, maybe I can find it or maybe Sounder has it.
