  Popping vs. Krump

  
  
  [ 6:06 - from YouTube ]

  Here's a real evolution of dance. This video charts the move from 80's robotic popping to the ultra-aggressive street dance called krumping. You can see the battling nature of both forms as the dancers try to outperform each other in front of crowds. Popping has its roots in 70's funk and was popularized by Michael Jackson in the 80's before becoming a key part of hip-hop culture. Krump is rooted in tribal war dances, and has become a worldwide movement and integral part of the urban dance scene. Both styles are wildly entertaining. view

  Chad Vader: The Date

  
  [ 5:14 - from YouTube ]

  This amateur series about Darth Vader's "less-talented, less-charismatic younger brother" Chad is worth a look. The concept is funny and although the execution could be better, eight million hits for the first episode (Chad manages a grocery store) makes this a classic online parody. view

  Gunther - Ding Ding Dong

  
  
  [ 4:01 - from YouTube ]

  There's no doubt in my mind that this video is one of the inspirations for Andy Samberg's "Jizz in My Pants" video. Meet Gunther. Never heard of him? Check him out. He's probably checking you out. He parodies himself and gets away with it. You laugh, but somewhere deep within, Gunther's got your number. Pure adolescent male perfection.  view

  Cookie Monster Metal

  
  
  [ 0:45 - from YouTube ]

  It was bound to happen: Cookie Monster goes metal. Here's a great re-mix of classic Sesame Street gone heavy. "Cookies, I will eat them all!"  view

  Vader Sessions

  
  
  [ 9:26 - from YouTube ]

  Fanboy alert! This is what happens when a lonely Final-Cut-Pro-savvy-Han-Solo-worshipper has too much time on his hands - you get the brilliant "Vader Sessions." Sometimes there is nothing like a good lip-sync, especially when it involves one of America's most celebrated actors and his casting as a 6'6" cyborg. We all know Vader, but some of us may not know that he has the same insecurities that we all harbor. Please note: one instance of the "n-word" and liberal use of Billy Joel. view

  Kelsey Briggs (True Story)

  
  
  [ 5:35 - from YouTube ]

  Child abuse is devastating. Who can argue with that? Not the nearly 40 million people who've watched this homemade video, which was created to advocate laws that protect children from abuse. However, as one watches the changing images of Kelsey Briggs as she nears her murder, the video becomes strangely unsettling. Homemade tribute videos like this are complex. Their material has been a mainstay of tabloid journalism and melodrama throughout history. Is this another form of rubbernecking, or worse - a Reader's Digest of snuff films?  view

  Parkour and FreeRunning

  
  
  [ 3:37 - from YouTube ]

  Before they became a part of marketing history, freerunners and parkour practitioners were flowing through urban architecture solely for the fun of it. They magically overcome walls, rails, and stairs with the mobility and flexibility of the human body. These athletes "pwn" every building they encounter. Truly amazing to see in action.  view

  Taiwanese Lin Yu Chun Sings Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" LIVE

  
  
  [ 2:59 - from YouTube ]

  Close your eyes. Listen carefully. It’s Whitney Houston, right? Open your eyes. Wait, what? That’s not Whitney Houston! That’s Lin Yu Chun of Taiwan doing one heck of an amazing impersonation. I half expect Bobby Brown to call and attempt to reunite with him.  view
