I had no idea that Paris, Wyoming, North Dakota, Texas, and the Pyrenees mountains are now officially their own independent countries! That just adds to the *wtf factor!

Related in the sense of both being famous driving films, not really related to M. Lelouche or Paris.

*eia not snuff , not any more snuff than watching a video of little kids boarding a plane which the last you saw on the video was the engine sucking in a giant goose and flaming out on takeoff.

I can find 50 more videos on the sift where things ended tragically.

Lay down some solid guidelines and I would be happy to follow them. "Videos where things go bad (even after the video ends) and it makes most people feel really uneasy to watch." ?

Greetings, Pie. I found another Two Gallants vid, this time from Le Cargo, in Paris:

Actually it's only one Gallant, Tyson Vogel is nowhere to be seen, it's only Adam Stephens with his harmonica and acoustic guitar.

Back in 1993, I remember this guy with a bad leg, living in a slum in Freetown (Sierra Leone's capital), in a tiny room plastered with Bollywood and Hong Kong B-movie posters, and whose door was made of pieces of cardboard glued together. He didn't have much.
He was called "Prof" Abubakar and made a living creating and selling steel wire sculptures from stuff he was scavenging off the streets. You're probably thinking of African steel wire toys, but his were crazy, there was nothing like it. They were incredibly complex, animated, spring-loaded, or with some sparkling devices.

Some years later, someone I knew came across him. He was exposing at the Pompidou centre in Paris.

Two decades later, it's like Kelvin Doe is his Internet-era spiritual son. I hope he does as well.

[EDIT]
Correct name: Abu Bakarr Mansaray (bio | one of his contraptions). He now lives in the Netherlands.

Your claims here are vastly skewed. As an example I'll point out that prostitutes do, in fact, view alcoholism awareness public service announcements, but than again, so does everyone else.
Hell, better yet, I'll go ahead and inform you that fruit flies are among the most commonly used model animal in modern science. That funding could literally be going to just about any biology related field of research in existence.

I'm very much willing to read and consider your viewpoints, but please, try and present the whole facts next time.
