Awesome Videos

Watching nature at its most merciless can be fun, but it’s nice to see that animals can be more suave than savage. Watch as the manakin bird proves that ladies can’t resist the moonwalk.

Every day in 2011, Madeline shot a little footage, then took about a second from each day and edited it all together. If this doesn’t make you want to get out and do more, we don’t know what will.

We laughed at this one’s hypnotize-then-attack tactic. This kitten’s version is far more diabolical. We’re starting to see a trend here. Damn cats. We hope YouTuber moongrate is okay.

Snide remark about the much better takes on both the topic at hand and the manner in which said topic is mocked. Realization that video is still funny. Grateful that it’s not another Sh*t Say video.

Two Triumph Speed Triple sportbikes go up against a 550hp supercharged Ford Mustang Cobra in this wonderfully shot video for Icon Motosports. Pop to 3:30 for the start of the chase. High-res stills here.

(Spoilers) The worlds of Walt and Jesse unravel through Kogonada’s perfectly edited remix of shots taken from the perspective of mostly inanimate objects. shovelcam and Roombacam, FTW!

Adam Ben Ezra knocks out a smooth cover of the Mad Men theme, using only his upright bass and a loop recorder. We can’t help but imagine the show’s cool opening credits. Studio version here.

YouTuber keef70 salvaged a surfing video shot on a foggy day and turned it into an even darker scene. The effects aren’t perfect, but the music – The Whales by The Mermen sets the right mood.

Freedivers with great white sharks. They say they are safe because they “adopt a proactive behavior” with the animals. Hard to do that when the shark can smell us peeing our wetsuits.

The trippy music video for Two Against One, one of the songs from the album Rome, which was produced by Danger Mouse and Daniele Luppi, featuring Jack White and Norah Jones on vocals.

This young man plays the hell out of his solo, setting the following in motion: his mates actually turn to stare at him, the crowd gives him props and then his body lets him know how much he rocked.

Danamal55 was counting some cash when his kid brother was hanging out and told him he could keep any bills he could catch when thrown up in the air. Little bro’s got mad bill-catching skillz.

MadMixMustang combined Queen’s Fat-Bottomed Girls with The Beatles’ Come Together to make one foot-stomping, lady-summoning song. Check the description on YouTube for the download link.
