This made me laugh for a long time - the fact that he's doing it to a silent shocked audience makes it even better, and the final shot of the scoreboard is the icing on the cake...

Tea!

I worry with the amount of tea that I am currently drinking (more tea = better revision) that this video bears a surprising similarity to my current obsession...

Ah it's no longer available Phil...

7:27pm - Wed, 21st May 2008Phil

Yes it is, I just watched it!

Bizarre it's back again - gave me a 'no longer available' last time I tried...

Found this sketch yesterday, made me chuckle enough to want to put it up here...

If you liked it, it's the second of a three part series - you can find the first one here and the third here...

Ok, so the starting bit where he gets a tattoo and stuff is a bit weird, but watch through that and he plays a double neck guitar!

Properly awesome.

This has to be my favourite music video ever, I can't even begin to imagine how long it took to choreograph and practice to get it all in one take like that.

On a lighter note, check out this awesome clay animation by TheClayLord.

Seriously, I can't even begin to guess at how long this must have taken to make...

Finally, someone comes up with a decent solution to fight the fat problem in America... If only.

The director of this clip has done all kinds of cool music videos, inc. Beastie Boys and others...

Billy's Balls

Ok, so a youTube video of a guy bouncing ping pong balls into plastic cups doesn't sound like the most exciting thing ever, but to be fair, I was well impressed by this video - just how many takes must he have of him getting it wrong?
I think my personal favourite is when he gets the ball into the moving cup on the skateboard...

Eurovision 2007

I expect that most people will have already seen this, but just in case you were away from the TV on saturday night, I thought i'd put up the Ukrainian entry... They came second, but for me they were the real winners.
You have to love the eurovision song contest really, I mean, where else would you get to see a guy dressed as a woman who looks like they've had a fight with a christmas tree dance to that kind of music?

Check out this bad boy! Typical American stance on things, if in doubt, blow it up :)
Made me chuckle anyway...

This has been kicking around ont he web for years hasn't it? Was one of the 4 most-watched clips or something?

10:25am - Mon, 14th May 2007Phil

That's right - in fact, according to the BBC it's the 5th most watched viral video on the web, and has been watched around 350million times...
Still, somehow I hadn't seen it until last night, and I thought it was funny enough to post here :)

Sorry if anyone out there can't see this video, I've re-written how it is embedded in the page so that the code will validate, with reference to Drew McLellan's Flash Satay method on A List Apart.
If anyone can't see it, let me know - i'd be interested! You can see the original here...

The Inner Life of the Cell

Wicked little clip I just randomly found on youtube (link), is some lovely computer generated video from the nice chaps at Harvard of what the inside of a cell looks like. Then someone has hacked it apart and put it to some music.

If there's any other geeks out there who'd like to know what they're looking at, you can find an 8 minute version (presumably the original?) with a voice-over here - (link)
