Mine did. She heard me burst out laughing and came in to see what I had
"found".

Mind you, ever "A" when set to "Extreme, running and horseriding" seems to
contravene the laws of physics. FF+G reminds me why I've never really
appreciated big ones. They could have your eye out.

indeed. Mind, I wasn't entirely convinced by the different sized itst being
applied to the same basic frame, not quite convincing. wonder if the
dynamics are valid?

No, I agree. I think there was one bare lady doing a variety of speeds from
walking to running, and a lot of CGI to make the wobbly bits. In which
case, one wonders how exactly they know the exact wobble parameters.
