How Much Fun Can One Man Have on YouTube!

So, after last month's very difficult event, I thought I would lighten things up a bit. One thing that I have been having alot of fun with recently is YouTube. Of course, part of that is the fact that I post videos there, usually zoo related, but I also enjoy some of the fun videos I have found. I have to be careful as it can surely eat up alot of time, but I am impressed with what YouTube has to offer. I look forward to watching old Whose Line clips, being able to watch some of the Family Guy clips that are funny and not offensive (although those can be tough to find at times). I thought for this month, I'd post a list of ten of my favourites that I have found. Feel free to peruse them, and look for others from the same posters. I decided to only include those that were made for YouTube, not just clips from old TV shows or music videos. So here we go with my Top Ten Favourite YouTube Videos!

10. We'll start off with the Injured StormTrooper, as this fan made video shows the never before heard of dilema of a Stormtrooper that is only injured, not dead.



9. I'm A Marvel, I'm a DC. This take of the Mac commercials using everyone's favourite comic heroes has Batman, Superman, and Spiderman debate who is better. Check out the various versions of this.


8. Simon's Cat. Great animation, very true of cats.


7. Sneezing Panda Baby. Very short, very funny.


6. It's Great to be a Nerd. This takes my least favourite character arcs from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and makes them awesome with one of my favourite Arrogant Worm Songs. Very well done!


5. A Steve Irwin tribute. One of my all time favourite people that I wish I could have met. One of many great tribute videos. Sometimes, a good slideshow with a good song makes a good video.


4. Star Trek meets Monty Python. There are several really good ones like this, but this is my favourite.


3. The Evolution of Dance. A classic. The follow up is good too, but this is my favourite.


2. The Mysterious Ticking Noise. The Potter Puppet pals have their best episode. Careful, the tune will get stuck in your head forever.


1. Nobody's Watching - Diet Coke and Mentos. This funny duo is best known for their spoofing and critique of popular TV shows, and there are dozens of funny Mentos-Diet Coke videos out there, but combining the two results in my all-time favourite YouTube video.


Speaking of Diet Coke and Mentos, this is an honorable mention...


Feel free to suggest some of your favourites.
