The YouTube thread

#1 Postby HurricaneBill » Mon Nov 26, 2007 2:52 am

I think it's about time we had a YouTube thread on here.

Here's a few to start off.

A McDonalds commercial from the late 1980s starring Jason Alexander (this was a few years before Seinfeld).

:uarrow: It's also got one of the highest spin-off counts of all time. Search "Kiwi" and you'll see what I mean.

No... the Highest spin-off count is probably for "LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE!!!" But I know what you mean.

You have to listen very closely just after it turns to black to hear what happens to him.

This one is cute. It's called "Wolf Daddy".

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STfjzX8qkiw

This video is about the massive koala rescue after the January 2007 Framlingham disaster. A bushfire swept through Framlingham forest, which was home to more than 3000 koalas. Only around 500 survived, many suffering from burns and smoke inhalation. Because the forest was mostly destroyed, the survivors would most likely face starvation.
