At Eastbourne airshow (In England), all the spectators line the beach to watch the airshow in the sky above the sea. One year, a Harrier came in real low hovering about 20m off shore, creating a huge downwards bowl of air going into the water, splashing everyone on the beach!

Now that was something

not that I am condoning unauthorised low or dangerous flying ..... but

man is it fun!

During my Airforce lowflying I kept getting told to get back up to the minimum height - 50ft B) - I was the only one on my course wanted to go low fast and drop things ..... hhmmm.... maybe I should have spent more time doing the Instrument approaches, then I wouldn't be sitting here in a tower typing this at 1220AM.

was it in the movie 'fight club' where they tried to get ATC to vector aircraft low over the expensive parts of the city, at night?

That first video really is amazing by the way- how many feey AGL do you rekon that was?

By the way, I found a still of the Harrier hovering above the water at Eastbourne, yet it was taken at the 2004 airshow, and a bit further out to sea from the time I was there:
