Royal Wedding

Today, to honor the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton, we thought we had to post this video.



Over the last couple of years, there have been several viral internet videos of 'real' weddings doing this dance but this is by far the best. Say what you want about T-Mobile's products and service, but their advertising/marketing people know how to make some great stuff.

First there was the flash-mob at the Liverpool Street train station



Next they held a giant karaoke sing-a-long in Trafalgar Square



Then they welcomed people home at Heathrow Terminal 5



Like they say, life's for sharing...

Meat Of The Week #16: world's largest commercially available hamburger.

Mallie's Sports Bar & Grill in Southgate Michigan (just outside of Detroit) hold the Guinness World Record for the biggest hamburger (that anyone can buy, if they can afford it). Weighing in at 75kg (approx 165 pounds), this is not for the faint hearted!

Luke's unsponsored and untitled but hopefully funny video corner

This week's video from Luke isn't necessarily funny, but it is cool to watch. VFX superstar Freddy Wong creates not only some great CGI but this video highlights an editor's worst nightmare when working with an impossible deadline.

Morbid Mortality Monthly - April

On 24 March 1975 Alex Mitchell, a 50-year-old bricklayer from King's Lynn, Norfolk, literally died laughing while watching an episode of The Goodies. According to his wife, who was a witness, Mitchell was unable to stop laughing whilst watching a sketch in the episode "Kung Fu Kapers" in which Tim Brooke-Taylor, dressed as a kilted Scotsman, used a set of bagpipes to defend himself from a black pudding-wielding Bill Oddie (master of the ancient Lancastrian martial art "Ecky-Thump") in a demonstration of the Scottish martial art of "Hoots-Toot-ochaye." After twenty-five minutes of continuous laughter Mitchell finally slumped on the settee and died from heart failure. His widow later sent the Goodies a letter thanking them for making Mitchell's final moments so pleasant.
