That's incredible! Can you imagine seeing that done on a large scale?! ..or under water... I wonder if this is done in a controlled atmosphere like helium gas or something to create the different aironomic effects.

Did those rings create other rings? Must have been one heck of adjustment till this worked as wanted!

#3 From the looks of the video and the reynolds number mentioned at the sart of the video, i think the experiment was conducted in water/liquid.
Vortex rings are achievable in most liquids and gases that aren't too viscous. quite a few aerodynamic experiments are done using water as it lets you use slow everything down while still getting relevant results for air (it's all about having using the same reynolds number).
#4, have a look at vortex rings on wikipedia

Maybe I'm crazy, but at the last frame on the right side I see part of a face, an eye and mouth.

no you know what happens when two stars colide and leave those remnants of gas that we are seeing with the hubble telescope now in far off space.
