YouTube Video of the Week: High Five
Not sure if this one passed me by or it’s just been a very underground cult classic but a mate of mine, with whom I share a particular passion for the high five, sent it my way. It’s usually the power I go for but these guys have got the style…
YouTube Video of the Week: Moving treadmill
Okay – I’ve seen some stupid inventions in my time, but this really takes the biscuit. It’s a treadmill that – get this – moves along the road as you run on it. Like the treadmills-in-World of Warcraft video, but in real life. Your fake running gets translated to real movement. How’s that for a waste of time, energy and the planet’s precious natural resources?

YouTube Video of the Week: French bloke chain-surfing
The first 20 seconds of this video aren’t necessary, so skip forward, but then you’ll see some rather impressive chain-surfing. I once tried to do the same thing at school. I nearly had to have stitches.
Former videos of the week: Suantum of Quolace | Solar Furnace
YouTube Video of the Week: The Suantum of Quolace
Today’s video is an alternative theme song to the new Bond film, written by Joe Cornish, one half of BBC 6Music, and formerly television, duo Adam and Joe. Quantum of Solace comes out today and I was lucky enough to get to see it last night. Without wanting to subject you to spoilerrrzz, it’s good, but it’s not a patch on Bond at his best in the 70s and 80s. Maybe that’s because I prefer silliness to gritty realism in films…
YouTube Video of the Week – melting steel with a 'solar furnace'
This is a clip from James May’s Big Ideas, where the Top Gear presenter gets to see a ‘solar furnace’. He tries a sausage. It nearly explodes. Then he melts steel. Using the sun. Awesome.

YouTube Video of the Week – Terry Tate: Office Linebacker
This week’s YouTube video of the week is Terry Tate: Office Linebacker. It’s a few years old, but I’d forgotten how good it was, and you might not have seen it, so grab some headphones, hit play and enjoy total enforcement of office rules.

YouTube Video of the Week: Computer history via interpretive dance
Again, not quite on YouTube, but I couldn’t resist this adorable video of pixellated office workers taking you through the history of computing in the form of interpretive dance. The music’s rather charming as well. I think we might have a rival to our very own Tech Trumpet.

Ok, so not strictly from YouTube but a video nonetheless, and a good one at that, as we get another take on that Bill O’Reilly incident courtesy of a rather frighteningly impressive Lil’ Bill…
YouTube Video of the Week: Musical Road
This is a musical road. It’s near Lancaster, California, and was built for an advert. When you drive over the tarmac, it creates harmonics that play a tune. Obviously the faster you drive over it, the faster the song will be. Interesting to see the Doppler effect come into play, though, when other cars drive by.
Oh, and while we’re talking YouTube videos, Shiny Shiny have a brilliant XKCD comic this morning.
