Hello. I was going to help test out the new ability for a submitter to mark their own video *dupeof= however I ran into a new "feature" while testing.

In my dupe video you asked me to try again, but now that the video is killed all the comments have vanished. See here http://videosift.com/video/Kinetic-toothpick-sculpture-of-San-Francisco-took-35-years?noredirect

There is a talk thread about comments vanishing on killed videos http://videosift.com/talk/No-longer-able-to-view-comments-on-killed-videos-2


Secondly I tried to run the *isdupe on another of my videos and got the error from siftbot that I am not privileged. See here http://videosift.com/video/Beyonces-Single-Ladies-Dance-by-7-year-olds

Thank you for trying to get these changes in place. It may not seem like much but at least for me as a regular user I would feel a little less powerless

I liked this except I would have liked it more if they would have left out the turntable scratch/dub effects. For fun I decided made a list of all the songs I could identify. Not sure if this means I'm just a Bond fan or have crossed over to Bond nerd.

It isn't science or new or even interesting. It's been done and proven. USAF did exactly this in 1960. This just added a few hundred feet to their altitude.


A few hundred feet? Try an extra 30000.

To me, it's like those hotwheels loop-de-loop videos, except less visually arresting. Even with those you can get some 'Science!' out of it, but it's still a marketing activity.

Less visually interesting? Are you on crack? Look at that view. I would kill for the opportunity to do something like this.

I don't really believe there's an awful lot of science going on, but that's fine, it's not really about science.

Personally, if this is how Red Bull want to spend their marketing dollars, I say good on them. They sponsor a lot of cool and interesting stuff around the globe. I'm still not buying their product, but it's a lot better than being told that red bull gives you wings.

Ah, shame on me. Dailymotion embeds use a different CDN nowadays, one that I hadn't unblocked yet.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

What we need to do is keep out noses out of things that do not involve us only until they absolutely involve us. Like WWII the last righteous war ever fought.

The Japanese saw pearl harbor as a Defensive attack. They view defensive as killing the attacker before he attacks, In WWII we had the right to fight and kick ass.

In Vietnam we were fighting the Chinese by proxy, and we failed. All of the wars after WWII are a waste of life and a waste of ammo.

The Iraq war is just for the dollar, thats all its for.

"The war is over so said the speaker
With a flight suit on
Maybe to him im just a pawn
So he can advance
remember when we used to dance
all i wanna do is dance" - "dirty harry" gorillaz

Er.. I hate to tell you this Quantummushroom, but IraqBodyCount.com is one of the sites whose numbers are actually quoted in the video... did you watch it?
Yeah. That guy's annoying accent pisses over everything. He obviously doesn't know about America's mainstream media being 98% left-wing, similar to the eurotrash they so admire.
And are you suggesting there is a group of citizens of the United States that WANT the US to lose a war?
Yup. They're the same people who want high gas prices so you'll drive less, guns banned so you're dependent on them for protection (not unlike the mafia), control of childrens' minds in politically-correct government-run schools and computerized thermostats so they can control your home's temperature from remote locations.
This collective sees the United States only as an exploitive gang of evil rich people controlling everyone else from their secret hideout in the pyramid on the back of the dollar bill. To them, there's nothing the USA can do right, it's all about some secret or not-so-secret profit motive.
And yes, this collective I'm describing wants the USA to lose wars, since Vietnam. They believe whatever they want to believe and always have; I'm just here to remind them they have the right to their own opinions but not to their own facts, and this "one million" number is questionable at best and a lie at worst.
