Russian Unicorn

Russian Unicorn

(NSFW: Language) BadLipReading dramatically improves upon Michael Bublé’s yawn-inducing Haven’t Met You Yet with their nonsensical video re-dub. At least he has a sense of humor about it.

High Wheel

High Wheel

While we wish there really were an theme park ride with cars which float in the sky, the High Wheel is just a clever video trick, accomplished using chroma-key to remove (most of) the ferris wheel.

No Bones Dance

No Bones Dance

Are you ready to fire up the club floor and grab everyone’s attention? Let YouTube channel DanceOn and the impossibly flexible Nathan Barnett teach you some “dances moves.”

Dog vs. Cat Showdown

Dog vs. Cat Showdown

Two warriors cross paths. Both sense the other’s skill in combat; both refuse to back down. To give way would be dishonorable. Also dishonorable: running away and squealing like a baby.

Mortys

Mortys

A surprisingly not-so-morbid tale, considering its protagonist is Death, who is portrayed as a working mom who barely has any time for her child. Entertaining, though a bit lacking in explanation.

Batman Origin Story (Engrish)

Batman Origin Story (Engrish)

Redditor whynow found the best re-telling of how Bruce Wayne became a superhero at a Chinese dollar store, from his desire to revenging his parents’ death to his skill at stroking enemies.

Middle-East Drifting

Middle-East Drifting

If drifting wasn’t thrilling enough for you on a closed track, check out this video of insane driving on a crowded Saudi Arabian street, packed with bystanders and people hanging out of car windows.

PokéCats

Lobster Shell Motorcycles

Lobster Shell Motorcycles

We’ve seen motorcycle sculptures made from some unusual materials, but we can honestly say this is the first time we’ve seen one made from a crustacean. Shellfish allergy? No ride for you.

Back to Buenos Aires

Back to Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires goes Back to the Future with the unexpected appearance of Doc Brown and his speedy stainless DeLorean in this new commercial for the Argentinian appliance store Garbarino.

Jedi Kittens

Jedi Kittens

Depending on how you look at the world, this is either the greatest thing ever on the Internet (in the last hour), or the end of civilization as we know it. We wish there was a Darth Maul kitten though.

Fubar

Fubar

(NSFW: Language) A Zack Snyderesque motion comic featuring cats vs. dogs but with a very human issue. Could use a more imaginative and less didactic script, but still worth watching.

The Schwarzenegger Trilogy

The Schwarzenegger Trilogy

Brainbow pays homage to the Governator with three hand drawn animated shorts – a montage of explosions, a scene from Terminator 2 and a song that uses Ahnold’s lines from his movies.

Just Another Day at Work

Just Another Day at Work

You don’t just need strength and speed to be a firefighter. You also need a lion’s heart and a giant’s balls. The firefighter holding the hose has both. He’s probably seen worse, but still.

Snowmaps on Paper

Snowmaps on Paper

Need to hit the refresh button in your brain today? Watch this four minute synth pop lovely music video, created with ink, water color, and a really, really long piece of paper. It’ll help. (Thanks Neil!)

Second Hand

Second Hand

A tale of two extremes, embodied by the title, presented in a unique animated style and filled with memorable scenes. Clear in its message yet not overwhelming or too critical.

A Short Film About Skydiving

A Short Film About Skydiving

Ryan Buller’s spirited 3 minute film that chronicles a weekend of skydiving from the perspective of the skydiver is a great combination of adrenaline rush and sheer fun. It’s got a goofy soundtrack too.

Don’t Scroll Down

Don’t Scroll Down

A word of advice: when The Daily What tells you not to click on a link, for crying out loud don’t click on it, and when they say not to scroll down, don’t do that either. We’re just saying is all.

Jerry Lewis Goat

Jerry Lewis Goat

Jerry Lewis may not be hosting this year’s MDA Labor Day Telethon, but that doesn’t mean we’re not thinking about him. This goat seems to hold him in high regard too. Wha-aaat? Wla-aaaat!?

Don’t Stop Believin’ (Mashup)

Don’t Stop Believin’ (Mashup)

Old school made new: the talented Peter Bull’s latest musical mashup has Journey’s Don’t Stop Believin’ as its foundation; this version is enhanced by Shakira, Bruno Mars and a few other folks.
