Cool YouTube Finds

I dont think this is a repeat thread, sorry if it is.

Its hard to do anything on the internet now-a-days without finding a You Tube video. So I thought it would be cool if we made a thread where we could post any cool videos found out there.

I'll start it out with this one, its pretty well known, so some of you I'm sure have seen it before. Its a video of a guy named noah who took a picture of himself everyday for 6 years straight and put them together in a video. Its strangely captivating.

That is a really cool video.

I find that all of the Rube Goldberg type videos are really cool. This one is especially fun to watch. .

^^ I did one of those type projects in 8th grade for science, I wish I had taken a video of it, it wasnt nearly as cool as some of those, but we were pretty proud of it haha

Heres an awsome Rube Goldberg video. It was a honda commercial. It was made using nothing but the car parts from the car. And eventhough some parts seem unreal, I swear it is. I forget the exact number, but I think it took them over at least 270 times to actually get the entire thing to work.



Epijh, why is everyone running in that video? was the water actually rising that fast? Thats pretty crazy if it was.

^people were actually running for their lives, but I think they did a huge reinactment for the film. I'm not to sure about that though, it might just be the real deal. Everything else is real though. And yes, the water was really rising that fast.

OK, here's a good one about a great coaster most of you never got to ride:



If you look closely, you'll see why the coaster didn't last- the turns have no banking in most cases, and very little in others. Watch how much the cars articulate- it's no wonder the shocks had to be replaced weekly, and sometimes twice weekly. For those of you who never got to ride it, you missed a treat- this coaster was a lot of fun!

This one is great for fans of old skool kings Island, too:



The first coaster you see is the Scooby Doo, which later became the beastie, and now has some Nickelodeon name. The Coaster that appears at 4:14 is the old Bavarian Beetle, which was my first coaster ever. Also notice that back in these days, Kings Island actually had flat rides!

Without clicking on the first link, I'm guessing you posted the old Bat?

I guess I could share some of my favorites:

before the NCAA Championship
A nice little song with accompanying
And

Plus I have a whole slew of PBA clips bookmarked in my own special page. If there are any requests, I'll post some of those as well.

Any of Neg's Urban Sports are awesome. My friends and I would always watch these in between classes and just laugh no matter how many times we've seen them.

Just a note, some of these do have a bit of swearing.









My personal favourites are Knock and Dont Run, Urban Sprinting, and Big Stranger Rodeo.

Probably the best video I have seen on You Tube of Dollywood. It's the 2nd place winner of the 2005 American Coaster Enthusiasts video contest.

This is a pretty cool video of Kings Dominion. It shows lots of the rides:

Admin Edit: I watched this video and it has a ton of POV which I know Kings Dominion doesn't allow. So unless you can provide us with something written that the video was taken with permission then you can repost it. Otherwise, please don't videos like that. Also, on a personal note, that music so sucked.

I'm not in it, but I was there when they filmed it. It was so funny.I'm suprised that you can't hear us laughing in the backround. Starting at 1:55, everyone was just crying. I'm pretty impressed that the "performers" kept a straight face...
