William Tell - Modern telling of the classic tale.
Vital Capacity - The struggle to maintain dreams.
Arrow Game - I want to play this game, however unsatisfying.
Bigger, Stronger, Faster
What a trailer! Interesting to see them connect the micro of steroids with the macro of American politics and outlook.

Super Bowl XLII: Eli miracle
Though I was rooting for the Giants to win (I spent the majority of my life in New York), I was not really into the game. But when Eli Manning connected with David Tyree in this incredible play, I lost it. You could feel the game change after that play, their own magic made them believe it was possible. One of the greatest Super Bowl moments against a great Patriot team.
P.s. Brought back memories of Mark Bavaro & Meggett in the previous Giants Super Bowl win.
Spike Jonze’s opening to Lakai - Fully Flared
What can be better than slomo skate boarding footage? Explosions. Quite beautiful intro to an upcoming dvd (a review).
p.s. can’t decide if this is graphics or a real stunt.

Trinity (TX) Laterals Their Way to Division III Win
Much like a good story, this one football play seems destined to end like every other desperate play but…
Kris Holm - Unicyleman
Doesn’t seem very extreme when the montage is cut to bad rock music. Amazing stunts nevertheless.
Seattle Basketball fan rap
I love the clothing.
BTW, India Wins Twenty20 Cricket World Cup
They kept winning one thrilling match after another. Here is a video of one of the Indian players, Yuvraj Singh, hitting six sixes in six balls in the match against England. That is second time that has happened in international cricket.
Andreas Helgstrand - WEG2006 Freestyle Dressage Final
This is different from our usual stream of shorts and such but it is entirely worth the distinction. The horse (Blue Hors Matine) is a better dancer than most people.
Ticklinks: The Grand Lists
- The Best Pick-Up Lines Ever! If you don’t get slapped or punched or kicked in the shins, your pick-up lines are weak.
- Time Magazine’s annual list of the least influential Americans. I wish somebody would really try to make such a list.
- Worst Music Video cliches. No video but I am sure it is not hard to picture.
- Top 10 Best of Roger Federer. The best shots from the best player in Tennis. Actually, #1 shot is won by his opponent, so this is more of a list of the best shots Federer was involved in.
- Mr. Deity and the Top Ten. It is not easy to come up with commandments.
