Could you help me un-dead-ify this video? I haven't used VideoSift in years, and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5EeONcqHqU is a working version of this video, but I can't figure out how to get an embed code of it that VideoSift likes....

Haha, the last one is epic if it really was on the tele.


In the Netherlands, I think, but yes it was. http://videosift.com/video/Cunning-Lingo-ist

Surprised nobody objected to the word "orbit" in the first question. Yes, for historical reasons physicists talk about electron orbitals, but it's not like the electron's spinning around the nucleus like a planet orbits the sun....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNkfufFhWQs is a higher-quality video, but it doesn't have the commentators' voices.

So these people have a defective TV whose screen isn't correctly grounded, causing a buildup of electrons on the phosphor?

They could have put in even more quotes from Batman and Robin if they'd wanted to. Cheesiest... movie... ever.

Love the brown stain at about 3:00....

you need to click through to youtube to determine deadness, as sometimes they give a dead message on embeds that are not dead.


So if I click through to YouTube and still get a "no longer available", then I can say *dead ?

where's the foresight to nail some of that crap down??


The dining room tables are nailed down. And people don't like chairs or potted plants that are nailed down. Some of those giant armoires or shelves could have used a good securing, though.

*dead

He does remind me of the penguin.. I keep expecting him to say "Where's Batman... er Barack.."


OK, that statement made me think of this.

Epic fail for the engineers who designed this road.


There was a tree stuck in the culvert. They designed it to handle many things, but uprooted freaking trees didn't make their list.

Wow, I'd forgotten how much John Landis chopped up the song to make it work with the mini-movie he wrote.

Original song:
Verse 1
Chorus 1
Verse 2
Chorus 2
Bridge
Verse 3
Chorus 3
Chorus 4
Vincent Price

Video:
Verse 1
Verse 2
Verse 3
Vincent Price
Chorus 1
Chorus 3
Chorus 4

The bridge ("there's no escaping the jaws of the alien") and chorus 2 ("the thing with forty eyes") are completely missing. You'd think with a video that long, they'd find room for all the lyrics.
