This probably won't be of any interest to my readers who are not Gyno-Americans. I am only passing it on here because of it's obvious educational value. I realize that it is, for a video, long at more than 15 minutes, so feel free to stop watching whenever it ceases to interest you.

I'm adept at getting them off, why in hell would I be interested in putting them ON!
Posted by: Peccable at March 15, 2011 12:41 PMThank You Mr. Vanderleun!I have found my new vocation.
This explains why all of Big Fur's newest contributors to IOTW home page are females!
Where are parts one, two, and three. Inquiring minds and all.
Posted by: westsoundmodern at March 15, 2011 1:24 PMThe best bra fitting I ever had was at Charleston's lovely Bits of Lace.
There's a runway video there that may be educational.
Posted by: Joan of Argghh! at March 15, 2011 1:56 PMI watched the whole thing! I think that there was some guy in the picture; he may have even said something. I'm not sure. I'll watch it again to find out ... Still not able to determine if the other person was talking ... Watching it again ...
Posted by: jsc at March 15, 2011 3:03 PMI wonder (no pun intended) if he ever needs help ... I would be delighted to lend a hand.
Posted by: AbsurdAbsurdity at March 15, 2011 9:09 PMA good bra is built the same way a good bridge is built. There are multiple considerations: load bearing, weight, sway, span, and suspension---to name a few. If you are really lucky, it will be beautiful, too.

Posted by: Little Miss Attila at March 15, 2011 10:51 PMI never knew that cup size is the difference of those two measurements. I question the second measurement technique. He measured with her already wearing a bra. Assume that it was too small and her breasts were being "pancaked", that would affect the measurement. It seems to me that it would be better to take that measurement with her bra-less on all fours, ie. breasts unconstrained and not drooping with gravity. Obviously this would not be on a video. I agree with Deborah, bra design is engineering with the added constraint of comfort.

Now, forgive me, I must move on to udder things.
"so feel free to stop watching whenever it ceases to interest you."
Umm...what? Was something said?
(BTW - is that Trooper York from Althouse?)

And, with Deborah, I am agreeing that this is a type of civil engineering. And I think it should be studied at all of our finest institutes, with the 'quick release' feature put on a 'crash development' program.
Posted by: Mikey NTH at March 16, 2011 7:29 PMWhy do I feel like I just went for a thirty minute walk?
Posted by: Big Mo at March 16, 2011 11:20 PMI sense the largest class-action lawsuit in America against the Amalgamated Federation of High School Guidance Counselors (SEIU). Why was I not told about such a job? I want an answer!
Posted by: Scott M at March 17, 2011 2:10 AMinteresting video, i never knew such profession exist. he seems very professional and into that.
