The Best of YouTube (Babies giggling, people getting hurt, the works!)

Link to video.

I don't want to post too many videos, but this one's pretty good. If you enjoy babies giggling hysterically, this one is definitely for you (although it's not 'all' babies....and if the babies are too much, just skip ahead a bit).

And I deleted the embedded video so you'll actually have to click through to YouTube. The image they put in the middle shows a girl's butt (clothed, but barely) that says "you've been mooned" to get people to click it....I didn't want it showing on this page, though, because I wouldn't post that thumbnail myself.

Moving Graffiti Art Animation (MUTO)

Link

Once upon a time, people would take spray cans and paint graffiti on walls.

That was the old way.

Now, they turn them into animations, or at least that's how this one was done. It's moving art on random walls and it's the ultimate in quirky. Really, I don't know how else it could be described other than amazing....and a little bit creepy, lol. I watched it without sound the first time, but it's much better to have your volume up for the sound effects.

6 year old will blow you away

Link

This is 6 year old Teresa Nguyen. All you need is 20 seconds of the video to know why I posted this. If you're expecting an amazing piano player, then you won't be disappointed, but you'll still be surprised by this clip.

And if any of you watch Britain's Got Talent, this is the little girl who appeared on there at one point, but here's her playing a full song.

~Edit~ The previous link was removed, so here's a clip of what she did on BGT. It's still pretty good, but I preferred the longer version.

Evolution of Dance (Holy Cow!)

Link to video if it doesn't play for you here.

I thought I had posted this before but I can't seem to find it, so here it is. This guy is absolutely amazing. He starts back with some older music clips and goes through to modern day stuff, all the while taking snippets of dance moves that represent that time or song. He's really funny while doing it, too, so enjoy!

This, That, and the Other---Can you figure it out?

PJC--Cat Trained to Use Bathroom

Well, it's not exactly a picture...but more like bunches and bunches of still framed pictures streamed together to create this video. It still counts, right? Lol. It's only about 30 seconds, so it's not a major file to watch...just a clip. :)

One Skull Each Day

We've all seen the 365 projects by now, whether it's blogging 365 days straight or taking a photo everyday. Well this guy took it one step closer and his theme is to create a new skull everyday, including one from the bedsheets from a hotel he stayed in and another made from a lace. They're not tiny skulls either, as each of those took up a large space. It's kinda cool and the video above is a sneak preview at some of the skulls he's already completed this year.

Wanna Be Lazy at the Office but Not Get in Trouble?

This gal links to a YouTube video that shows some funny tips about how to look busy, but not really 'be' busy. Most of them look like so much work that I might as well just work and get it over with!

The exception to that rule that many of you bloggers/blog readers might appreciate is this site, though. It's a website that will transform any website to look like it's in a Word document! She gives some great screenshots over there with the video, so go check it out.

The YouTube link won't play within the post, so here's the direct link to it.

100 People Ages 1 Through 100....All Playing Drums

Yep, it starts at a one-year-old and ends with someone who is 100.....all in under 3 minutes. Kinda cool to look at how the ages compare (especially when some of the older ones look much younger than their age....and vice versa, too).

Misheard Numa Numa Lyrics

Quick video. If you missed the huge Numa, Numa period that happened a few years ago, google it, heh. If you know what this video refers to, then it's kinda giggle-worthy. It's a video of the lyrics the way they 'sound'....and graphics to go along with 'em, hehe.

Influences--30 People Painted On Top of One Another

One guy, 30 inspirational people, and 20 hours of painting.

I've had this video saved forever and just never got around to showing you guys. His description of the video is:

30 different people that influenced my life were painted one on top of another on my torso. I either painted a picture of the person or an object that represents the person.

It's painted so that you can see the whole process. Amazing really. He gives a few more details on the YouTube site (like why Hitler is included) and still shots of the different paintings can be found on his site.

Interesting Juggle--That Is All I Can Say

Interesting Juggle

(Click my link, it takes you to another's entry, and then click the link there that says "Juggle This." It automatically opens a video in Media Player. Sound isn't necessary.)

All I can say to this video is...wow. Just wow. Watch all the way through, because it's the last 10 seconds that are a kicker.

And, uh, please don't hate me in the morning, heh.

Pumpkin Carves Itself--Happy Halloween!!

^ Really cool video of a pumpkin carving itself. Watch as the plot thickens and goes for an unexpected twist.

Yes. It has a plot. Just watch, lol

DDR Child Prodigy

This kid is absolutely amazing. He's only five and has incredible speed and skill. I'm in awe just watching him. (The video is only 2 minutes long, so take the time to go ahead and play it....it's worth it.)

Notting Hill, London Diner Offering Free Food to Tiny Models

Watch the short video and you'll see that a local restaurant is offering free food to any model who can prove she has a BMI of 18 or less. On one hand, it sounds like an encouragement for them to eat a hearty meal and 'put on some weight'.....even though we all know that it isn't a lack of money that keeps them at that size. On the other hand, it almost seems like a reward for being that thin. So far, no one has taken them up on the offer. What do you think about this?

100 Movies, 100 Quotes, 100 Numbers

This thing is almost 10 minutes long, but if you're a movie buff or even just slightly bored, you'll enjoy it. It counts down from 100, quoting each number in a different movie. Nicely done!

Drug-Free Drugs and Mental Twists (Larry Carlson)

This first link is just, um, crazy. It's slightly hypnotic, slightly annoying, and slightly dazing. There's also sound, but even without your volume up, it's kinda hard to look away (or even if you do, it's hard to not look back just to see what the heck is going on).

http://larrycarlson.com/

The second link is the one that led me to the first set of 'digital art'...

http://www.larrycarlson.com/supreme_om/

He has a blog to look through also, if you so choose, although I found the site itself more enticing.

http://skyhaseyes.blogspot.com/

Why did I label this drug-free drugs? Because a couple days ago, I was sent the link below and it was called an LSD simulator because of it's effect (you've probably seen something similar before). I wasn't going to post the link because it wasn't necessary and not really worth my time, but after seeing the connection to these other slightly hypnotic flash 'arts', I couldn't help it.

200th Post!!--Kick the Yapping Penguin Already!

Yahoo Emoticoncert

So I was always a fan of yahoo messenger's emoticons. In fact, it was the 'sole' reason I stayed with them for so long, and now, even after they've changed their emoticons and I don't like them nearly as much, the only reason I continue to use it is because it's the one my mom uses. Frankly, I still like the smileys better there than the ones on MSN messenger, but it seems most of my friends tend to use MSN, and I'm stuck with crappy smileys no matter where I go anyway. (Don't even get me started on AIM...I refuse to even use it now).

That being said, I'm impressed by the effort these guys put out for their own music video using lyrics and emoticons. It's kinda spiffy and worth the couple minutes of time, in my opinion, just to see a good use of smileys, even if they're not as great as the smileys as before (although some have definitely improved in their animated 3D attempts).

The iRack

Thanks to Nikki for this one. I want to laugh....then I want to cry....then I want to be angry....and when it's all said and done, I can't help but just laugh anyway, because what else is there to do?
