Here's a feather vs. hammer re-creation by the BBC in the world's biggest vacuum chamber.  Dramatic use of slo-mo.

Density of Gas demonstration [TheTvelvethMonkey]:

Start with the video above then move onto this one from Cal Poly Pomona, which is even better



Picture
VantaBlack - The Darkest Material Ever Made [Sci Show]:  Overview of this new material that absorbs 99.965% of all light.  Very good to use with any lesson on reflection and absorption of light.  
3 min 52 sec
  
Picture
 Convection Currents in Water [Mr. Temme]:  My favorite video showing convection currents.  The music will drive you crazy after a while, so turn it down or off.  Trust me.

Doppler Effect/Red Shift - Minivan Horn [hherold]:  The most basic example of the Doppler Effect. Low budget and low resolution but good to show as an intro to this topic.
9 secs
Picture
