Central Park is weirder than you think

Spend an afternoon with our hapless protagonist Raphael, as we see his afternoon strangely unfold through other people's pictures while he's waiting for his date in Central Park. It's a LOLer, I promise. A quite clever LOLer at that.

Dude, this is one of the most brilliantly awesome vids I've seen on the sift in ages. If this doesn't hit the top fifteen, God is officially dead.


I think this is one of the cleverest videos I've seen in a while too. I feel lucky just to have found it. Whether or not it hits the Top 15, I'll just be happy if a few people here enjoy it as much as we do, JAPR. Thanks for the upvote.

Worked ok for me, jimnms.

Liked it:) Do you know anything about the person that made it, Kronosposeidon?
I wonder if they grabbed stills out of a video, or actually took that many pics:) Really cool anyway. upvote!

You know... for me... concept brilliant, execution... a little... meh.

The whole idea was really great and it started out ok, but by just falling into a ridiculous farce it spoiled what could have been something really special.

pity.

I'll upvote it though

By chance, are any of you who are unable to view this video outside the US? Here's the direct link:

Please let me know if you can't view that either.

Sorry, but I'm afraid I don't know who made this

Can't play it either. Volume slider works, play button is dead. Clicking the video itself does nothing. Really wish someone would standardize all the flash players out there.

Jimnms just told me that he's in the US and still can't view it, while Thylan can view it outside of the US, so that shoots my regional-blocking theory out of the water.

Hmm. Have you tried viewing it in a different browser? Sometimes I can't get certain video players to work in my Firefox browser, but when I switch to **shudder** Internet Explorer they work just fine. Go figure.

@kronosposeidon:
I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.6 on this system. The direct link doesn't work for me either, however, I can see there that it hangs up "loading components." This, while the status bar shows that it's trying to load an ad from ads.doubleclick.net. So, it might be a matter of my ad blocking; I've seen that on a handful of vids in the past.

^viewer_999:

I bet that's the problem I have with some flash players, like Video Egg and Bore Me. Every time Zifnab posts a Zero Punctuation video from Video Egg I have to use my **shudder** Internet Explorer browser to watch it. I'm calling this one 'mystery solved'.

Works fine here in Canada. I had to reload the page a few times to get the interface to appear, and then I just let it play. Pretty funny; worth working through the technical difficulties for.
