Rough Sea Carrier Landing

I saw a video a while ago that showed rough seas landings on a carrier from the fighter cockpit perspective. One minute they were looking at the back of the ship, next thing, high above the deck. I think I may have gotten the link here but can't find it now. Anyone see it and have the link? It's not the PBS Carrier Pitching deck video from Australia on youtube. That is a good set (2) though.

Thanks.

Sorry, I just noticed you said it was not the pitching carrier ops in Australia from PBS, but that one was good too.
