Yes, the general rules are similar, except your 1500 ft rule is replaced with a 1000 ft rule.

1000 ft rule
An aircraft must maintain an altitude of 1,000 feet above the highest obstacle within a horizontal radius of 2,000 feet of the aircraft over any congested area of a city, town, or settlement, or over any open air assembly of persons.

However, I couldn't find if gliders are lumped in with powered aircraft like over there.

I found an 84 page pfd, labeled "THE BRITISH GLIDING ASSOCIATION, BRONZE CERTIFICATE CONFUSER", multiple choice, with the correct answers bolded. This confirms your assessment of gliders being subject to aircraft rules.

NAVIGATION Section
QUESTION 6. In a glider, which of the following defines visual flight rules
below 3000 feet?

A. 1000 feet vertically and 5 nautical miles horizontally from cloud and in sight of the ground.

B. 1500 feet vertically and 1000 feet horizontally from cloud and in sight of the ground.

C. 1000 feet vertically and 1500 feet horizontally from cloud and in
sight of the ground.

D. Clear of cloud, and in sight of the surface, in a flight visibility of 1500 metres when airspeed is 140 kts or less.

And in the AIR LAW AND BGA OPERATIONAL REGULATIONS Section

QUESTION 6. What are the VMC rules when flying in class D airspace
below 3000ft AMSL at 140 kts or less?

with the exact same four answers.

But back to the point... great video.

1913 elevator, lawyers would have a field day with. I've used manlifts in power plants which are similar but not as fancy and only fit one person on each step.

It's a Coke thing, PR trying to improve image. But it's still a good idea, although toy makers might not agree. There's a warning at the youtube site to take the labels off the bottle before using it for something you don't want kids ingesting.

A selection of these caps will be available in Vietnam later.

An instructional video for deaf Jehovah's witnesses... talking about why God doesn't want them to masturbate... overdubbed with 50-cent.

Sorry I can't embed, but you can rest assured that in my professional opinion, it is worth the click.

A little too much buffering for me, but that was unreal. That could have also been in the WTF thread. And now I know the sign language symbols for both male and female masturbation.

One time when I was having sex with a girl, I stopped completely and held very very still for about seven seconds. She asked what I was doing. I said I learned this on youporn. Its called buffering.

Yes it is... I've seen the original too.
