That's the Vjemork Hydroelectrical Power Plant in Rjukan, Norway. The Germans wanted to use it to produce nuclear weapons because of its ability to produce heavy water. It was sabotaged by Allied (Norwegian commando) forces in Operation Gunnerside.

Looks like some kind of probe camera where you look into the big end and stick the small end (that holds the lens/camera) into something for a closer look?

[Jeekinz]

Cylinder probe for engines?

 

[keltin]

For non-intrusively inspecting wildlife habitats such as beehives or animal dens?

 

[keltin]

Is it a borescope used to inspect gun barrels, or engines, or electronics??

 

[phinz]

Hahaha!!! So far expat is the closest, but only if you look at it in a humorous way...

 

[miniman]

is it a medical piece of equipment - checking the lower part of the intestines?

 

[expatgirl]

does the laser zap hemorrhoids

 

[expatgirl]

or is it used to go down the espohagus

 

[phinz]

neither one

 

[Jeekinz]

Colon scope?

Sigmoidoscope?

 

[sattie]

Scope for examining the ear canal or sinus?

 

[sattie]

Is that what they use when they say "I'm gonna get my knee scoped"?
