Might want to warn people of this video's length (over an hour)!

"Wife talking, wife talking, oh hey cute teenagers!, whoops back to wife talking..."

"You're a Ball Buster!"

Obey the 3 second rule!

I find it fascinating to consider the implications of communication without speech. It's interesting to note that several cultures make a big deal out of communication via body language, or how even the absence of communication at all can convey a message. In Rising Sun, Crichton writes of a "conversation" between Capt. Connor and a Japanese businessman from whom he's trying to extract information, in which an entire 5 minutes went with no speech, yet Connor leaves with a great deal of insight on what he was seeking.

I'm losing my train of thought due to the hour, but I'll definitely continue following your thread, Maudlin!

I miss Andre...

No red light trails.

Mi! Mimimimimi miiiiiiii.......

Old link (dupe). Still good stuff. Might want to replace the old video with this version as this is much cleaner and minus the annoying logo.

Oh the wonders of the series of tubes Internet! Sooooooo many clips have finally broken out of the Festival's tiny circle and into the mainstream thanks to Youtube! <3

That brief part where the guy runs past the sleeper in the middle of a snore, so the audio pans across the screen still elects a giggle! Or rather, a chortling snort!

Interesting little viral, and considering the recent surge of 1-post users with a name and 3 or 4 digits next to it, possibly a self-link. He's got a breakdown of the reel here.

PS: I have 2 digits by MY name!

PPS: Farhad is excluded from my ire!

If you don't send this video to 8 friends and have them upvote, you'll be visited in the night by a scary little girl from a nearby well!

I was so happy when George came out of the closet! Er, I mean sad! Err... uh oh, gf's gonna kill me... D_D

I managed to see this group at their tiny campus in Istanbul. Western culture's initial take on the Whirling Dervishes is that they're associated with war and spinning scimitars (thanks to M:tG, AD&D and other fantasy games), yet in describing themselves, they are a peaceful sect with deep spiritual connections to the world and the environment around them. As they spin in a semi-hypnotic state, their left hands are held down toward the ground, and right hands up to the sky to facilitate the flow of energy between them. It's rather fascinating stuff to explore, should you encounter more information other than what's posted on the wiki article.

More recently, realizing the great value of the tourist economy, the Mevleviye have turned toward donning robes of different colors other than the traditional white linen, and have even accepted and trained female members. From what I hear of the travelling show, however, they still hold true to the original roots of the religion.
