In the 1960's some action shows on TV like the Batman series used a video technique similar to what I saw here when the camera started spinning.

People like to try things to just to see what happens

It would be interesting to use a VFD speed controller to see if you can syncrohronize speed and frame to camera position so it appears to not be moving.

It always fascinated me when I was a kid to see the spokes on the wagons in cowboy movies go backward.

This video of a high speed boat with surface piercing props in interesting.... to me anyway.

The props appear at about :30 seconds, and "stop" moving at about 1:00
