An incredible story! Somewhere in link or ▶ this video the narrator casually says "... and this is why we breathe oxygen ..."
You want molecular dynamics. They are simulations, not real images. But otoh (visible) light rays are "about as big" as a very large protein, so you can't image them. And because of computational expense they're slow motion by necessity, which is good because very, very complex enzyme interactions means ~2-3000 interactions per second. Example: ▶ this video
This reminded me of a beautiful animation of "Mitochondria: the cell's powerhouse" which I recently watched. ▶ this video
