    I absolutely love these old technical videos. I'm not sure what organization or group created them, but they're amazingly thorough and present seemingly complex apparatus in a very simple and easy to understand manner. 

    This isn't exactly the same but I still love it. Discovery of different types of gears

    I've seen this probably five times and every time I watch it all the way through, think I understand it, then about an hour later realize I retained none of it leaving only the knowledge I had before ("Differentials allow wheels on an axle to turn independently of each other.")

    That's why I'm not an engineer.
