    Incredibly irritating breathing, yawning, and whispering, what's going on?

    by Li-fan Chen

    The recording picked up a lot of auxiliary sounds from perhaps mostly disinterested staffing?/on-lookers? half way through the video. The noise they make really take away from the video. Can someone please recut the video to get rid of those annoying audio channels?
