A police investigation is under way after a four-second clip surfaced online showing a naked woman reaching for a bookshelf in a Hong Kong library.

The four-second video that first appeared in media reports on Tuesday shows a woman taking off a garment as the camera pans towards her. The clip ends when she reaches for the bookshelf.

I'm guessing webcam content? Anyone seen the uncensored version?

Some context, the USS “Gerald Ford”, the world’s largest naval vessel, is currently visiting Oslo, Norway. One reporter and two photographers (all male) went to the coast to report and get some reactions from bystanders.

They happened upon two naked women exiting a sauna just as the hangar ship was passing. They let themselves be interviewed “in the same state they were in when they first spotted the the 333 meters long hangar ship: without a stitch” (quote from the article).

I find it incredibly hot that they just casually let themselves be interviewed and photographed by three strange men while butt naked, and also in plain view from all the people at sea.

Wow.

This is the English Translation of the story [via Google Translate]:

Taken aback: - A little nauseous

Thousands of spectators witnessed how the world's largest aircraft carrier sailed in through the Oslofjord on Wednesday morning. At Nesodden, two women were "taken to bed".

NESODDEN / DRØBAK (Dagbladet): The sound of waves lapping was slowly but surely drowned out by something mechanical. The unmistakable sound of rotors cutting through the air just got louder and louder.

Then a Norwegian naval corvette arrived. Then a Norwegian frigate.

Then two friends who were sitting on the shore at Hellviktangen on Nesodden witnessed how the world's largest warship, the American aircraft carrier USS "Gerald R. Ford", sailed into Bunnefjorden on Wednesday morning.

- We were taken completely to bed, says one of the women to Dagbladet.

- It was completely surreal, adds the other woman.

They allow themselves to be interviewed by Dagbladet in the same state they were in when they first spotted the 333-metre-long aircraft carrier: Without a thread.

- Feeling discomfort

The two friends had just stepped out of Nesodden Folkebadstu on Hellviktangen, and were sitting on the jetty outside the sauna house, when the picturesque view of the fjord was disrupted by 100,000 tons of raw American force.

- I got a little sick, but at the same time it's also a little exciting. But when I look at the boat now, I feel a discomfort, says the first woman to Dagbladet.

- Why?

- I don't know quite yet, but I associate this with war and invasion. It is a powerful display. The ship somehow penetrates the fjord, so I feel a mixture of fascination and aversion, she replies.

The friend also reacted with mixed feelings, but the two women are not entirely in agreement in their view of the aircraft carrier's entry into the Oslo Fjord.

- We love to criticize the USA, but we are probably very happy that they are here too, deep down. We have discussed this, and we have slightly different views on this, says the other woman.

- I find it a bit exciting, and am very happy that the ship is here with friendly intentions, she adds.

First since 1959
None of the women knew in advance that the aircraft carrier was going to anchor in the Bunnefjord. Both women live and have grown up in Nesodden.

They have never seen anything like it, but neither have many other Norwegians.

Not since 1959 has an American aircraft carrier docked in Oslo, and it was then of a much smaller caliber than the USS "Gerald R. Ford", which can carry up to 90 combat aircraft and helicopters.

The American aircraft carrier, which is out on its first operational voyage ever, and Oslo will be the first port to be visited. The ship, and its 4,500 crew members, left the Norfolk naval base in the United States on May 2 this year. Now they get land license in Oslo for a few days.

The fact that the ship is visiting Norway in particular is described by Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre as a "signal to the world that NATO is there at sea".

However, experts believe that this "signal" initially has one intended recipient: Vladimir Putin's Russia.

Russia: "Harmful"
The Russian embassy in Norway has described USS "Gerald R. Ford's" visit to Norway as a "harmful demonstration of power".

- Considering that it is admitted in Oslo that Russia poses no direct military threat to Norway, such demonstrations of power look illogical and harmful, wrote Timur Chekanov, press officer at the Russian embassy, ​​in an e-mail to NTB on Tuesday.

Associate professor Ingerid M. Opdahl at the Department of Defense Studies (IFS), part of the Norwegian Armed Forces College (FHS), was not surprised by the Russian statement, wrote VG on Tuesday .

- I think nothing can damage the relationship between Russia and Norway more than the war in Ukraine, she told the newspaper.

"Make love, not war"
For the two friends at Nesodden, the sight of the American aircraft carrier was a reminder of the war in Ukraine.

- It's strange to see the war coming here, but as my four-year-old son says: "It's just lazy", says the other of the two women.

She also describes the aircraft carrier's approach as a "demonstration of power, which came on a bit suddenly".

Dagbladet asks what she thinks about it.

- What I think about it, she replies rhetorically.

- "Make love, not war", she adds, and is immediately supported by her friend.

Thousands of spectators

Along the entire Oslo Fjord, thousands of spectators had made their way to the shore to watch the USS "Gerald R. Ford" sail towards Oslo.

At 06.00 the ship was on its way into the fjord, and at 09.20 the ship sailed through Drøbaksundet - the narrowest part in the entire Oslofjord.

At its deepest, the strait is only about 110 metres, but outside the berth itself it can be as shallow as a few metres. The Norwegian Coastal Administration describes the pilot mission as "the deepest of all time".

- The aircraft carrier stays marginally within the maximum depth in the sailing regulations for the Oslo Fjord, the pilots explained in a press release from the Norwegian Coastal Administration on Wednesday morning.

One of the spectators in Drøbak was Arne Båserud (61) from Hølen in Vestby. He had made the trip to the Vindfangeren boat harbor outside the city center to see the aircraft carrier pass through Drøbaksundet and past Oscarsborg fortress.

- It is very powerful, said Båserud to Dagbladet when the USS "Gerald R. Ford" passed and several hundred American crew members stood at attention on the 78 meter wide flight deck.

- We were taken completely to bed, says one of the women to Dagbladet.

This is a direct translation of a Norwegian saying that means taken completely by surprise.

The more accurate translation of the wording would be something like caught in the bed, probably originally meaning that someone is still in the bed while someone arrives or something happens that they should be up and about for.
