Know thy equipment. I captured this video today with a borrowed Canon Powershot photo camera as I do not own a video camera that connects to the computer. What I didn't think about: just because it says on the display that there are 50 seconds recording time left, it doesn't mean that the camera can capture those 50 seconds in one piece. Lesson learned for the next time. (Luckily, it's not a big deal: other people in my group took decent videos and my photos came out OK. The shown gas holder is 96 meters high and has a diameter of 56 meters, by the way. In the first ten seconds of the video nothing happend, so I cut it away.)
