0:45 to 1:18

thanks
OOOHH!! I took a picture of Manhattenhenge in time square.
thats pretty
Nice work ROCKETBOOM!
poot
Thats a great sight to see.
That has to suck if you’re driving on that road in the morning. Sun being straight in your eyes. I remember that happened to me once and I ended up crossing a red light.
thats sunset, not sunrise
awesome
that is awesome!
hitler is a noob
umm……. i see it for like 4 minutes, but am lost after……….
its really not so “calculated” as just coincidental……
“Slow down, it’s not a race.” A teacher told me that once when I was speaking in front of the class. I think it applies here.
You gotta love Manhattan. Seriously.
nice
sorry it’ nice but …she speaks to fast and not clearly…slow down and project a bit please
Seen it .. truly beautiful.. rocketboom always interesting !!!!!!!!!!
Awesome!
It’ll be lolz if Cloverfield throws the Statue of Liberty’s head at the pointy building. It will ruin the sunset.
WOW Such A Nice View!!!
Fantastic video guys!
Just to point out. I’ve noticed some interlacing issues with your last few videos on HD, might wanna do something about that in your future uploads.
Keep up the good work!
Geeee, I didn’t know it. That’s cool.
Why not going back to Stonehenge entirely and restore human sacrifices? I can provide a list of candidates to the honourable office, if it may help.
But you need to hurry because the precession of the equinoxes is going to change it sooner or later.
Wow, you don’t even know what that building is called? I thought everyone did.
even though i live in nyc for a long time. i never really noticed it. we see the sunset, but we just didnt notice the effect.
Well, you see, I don’t even lived in the US, but I watched Cloverfield, so yeah.
That was an Awesome site!! Great vid!! :)
I want to see this.
Another case of a New Yorker thinking the rest of the country gives a rats ars about New York…..we don’t.
ive never even been 2 nyc but name another city as powerful…moron
Yeah she is a New Yorker born and bred, listen to that accent! >_>
beautiful - except it would blind the drivers
Molly you speak waaaay too fast and i’m Australian.
I have no idea what you just said but that was a really beautiful sunset.
very pretty
very pretty… and the sun set was meh
Actually, no. Go watch her first video, titled “Molly,” she details where she was born and raised.
Oh no, you’re right! Looks like we better call it off. GUYS–turn off the sun!
I love you mememolly always have
What is the music?
and they did all these to thanks to their gods and know when the harvest time will be, they also did alot human sacrifices carry out by the holy four wheels machines
I live in New York and I didn’t even know this.
that was awesome. whoever thought of taking time lapse video of the manhattanhenge sunset deserves oral sex.
I’ve lived in California my whole life and I knew that. Great Video!
>_> INDICATES SARCASM!!!!!!!!!
Wow 3 downvotes = 3 idiots.
Amazing.
the clouds at 1:30 ish were amazing
Isnt that Mememolly? =O
Very interesting. I never would have known that. Also: Thats pretty!
Molly’s intro was dismal. It’s like she didn’t know what she was reading and just raced through it just to get it over with. Too bad, because the words written for her were quite nice.
It would have been better to have put Leah in front of the camera instead.
the traffic went crazy when it was in the middle!
tonight you may be able to catch a little bit of it but yesterday & the evening before were supposedly the best times.
we were so lucky to get such an awesome night!
lame.
0:46 is when the sun come’s out.
Where I live we can see the sun set every day.
City planners are thinking about putting up a lot of large buildings to put a stop to all that nonsense.
sweet
meh

Amazing! How could such a primitive civilization possibly build something so astronomically advanced? Could this mean that the NYC was built by aliens?
(Good Show, Molly! Thanks for revealing a realm of mysteries and possibilities to ponder…. :)
The calculated architecture of the city and the celestial body of the sun …. whwhwhwhaat? I didn’t get the rest of what she said at all. Can someone re-iterate?
Cool I never knew about this! I love my random collection of knowledge. Thanks for sharing Molly ^_^
this is good. very very good.
wow! Molly is still in New York?!
It would be cool if we met :)
A novel idea indeed!
The last crap of Michael Jackson videotaped

…form a visualization and a connection between fabrication and nature. The urban phenomenon here is called manhatanhenge.
i think
Fantastic! In all my years living there I never knew this phenomenon existed!
PLEASE slow down - it was virtually impossible to understand this this gal who spoke way too fast and didn’t seem very interested in that fact that she is communicating! That means that half her job is making sure that people understand what she is saying - her job is not just to get out the words. My suggestion is that she speak slowly girl - what is the rush? Too much caffeine perhaps? The object is to communicate. One of the first rules of speaking before an audience is to speak more slowly than you would in a conversation.
Looking forward to more with improvements!
The visual for this piece was OK but, please, slow this girl down. Her opening comments were so fast and poorly pronounced that I could hardly understand what she was saying. A little better on the presentation skills, please.
whats the music called
Wow, could she talk any faster?
I don’t think it was that fast
They should’ve sped it up a bit more.
The sky was totally blown out. This would’ve made a great opportunity for HDR photography.
Wow, that’s really quite beautiful, unsurprisingly.
Very Cool and im a Monkey !
neat
She said wah????
Really beautiful.
Thanks to all the Bricklayers and Stone Masons and their plumb bobs and whisky sticks too!

Yea but was it intentional? That is was the Manhattan grid laid out with the 6/13, 12/13 dates in mind and if so what is the significance of those dates? Or is this another instance of people placing importance to coincidence?
What’s the big deal? The sun comes up every day!
fuck you molly
but cool video
hey man not cool
Riding off into the sunset may be symbolic of a fade to glory but it is also a good time to look away.
that was GREAT !!
0:49 to 1:16, I love the 5 rays…CHEERS–Iya
Mollyhenge; Molly rises naked, now that i WOULD want to see! ;-P

:54 - 1:15 WOW!
that is beautiful! I wonder how many new yorkers actually take the time to spend, what 10 minutes looking at the sunset?… what street is this?
why insult Molly?
18 at 6 0′clock
there were about 100 people on the bridge taking photos :]
it seems they don’t really belong there and are an artifact of the camera optics or a star filter attached to it.
That’s really cool!
Your doing an awsome job molly, i’m a fan already!
This event is the quintessence of beauty.
And Molly’s face :p
Wooow!!
Stunning!!
Cute girl. Beautiful photography.
That was someone filming, not taking pictures.
please tell me more about the “fake “invasion”
I love this vid, Music is awesome too!!
The best streets to see this phenomena are the west 20’s. Awsome ochre orange sun sets.
