Update: Fast-forwarding through gradual transformation videos ruins the payoff
I recently viewed a clip documenting the entire process of a crystal growing over several days, compressed into two minutes. In my haste, I jumped to the end and completely missed the delicate, incremental changes that make it satisfying. The true charm lies in watching each subtle shift unfold naturally. Do yourself a favor and resist the urge to skip; patience is key with these kinds of videos.
