YouTube Classics, Part Deux

Why did the elk cross the road?

To show the Armadillo "it CAN be done.."

Why did the elk cross the road?

Thought they were following the chicken. ..., ah gingersnaps, @jim hardy beat me to it.

This is not a youtube video, but I thought it was better to post it here rather than create a new thread about it...

Brexit is the withdrawal of UK from the European Union.
Here's a short clip depicting the ongoing procedure:

A very nice clip of a fighter landing on a carrier, filmed from inside the cockpit:

Take a ride on the classic Supermarine Spitfire (from the 1930s-1940s):

This is such a cool gadget, an rc Millennium Falcon drone (though they say the flying capabilities of it is not as good as a regular drone):

Air Hogs - Star Wars Millennium Falcon Quad - Review and Flight
(the flight demo starts at 7m 45s into the video)
And there's even a larger version, which I guess have even worse flying capabilities :

Wet steam. It took a while to get the voice back after all those years sleeping.

Break-in run.

How many days did it take to fire a steam before you could drive her?

I don't think it would take days unless it was stone cold from a complete overhaul and needed a complete systems check.

Well, normal sized locs already take hours.

Needs a couple of these, then. . . . .

Apparently, if you are SCUBA (Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus)) diving, you can "lie" on your back and blow bubble rings (which are spinning vortexes), with amusing results:

I saw a couple of videos of people being annoying with scammers, and I stumbled upon this one which I thought was very funny. The scam is a classic Nigerian advance-fee scam, and the guy is hilariously annoying, playing stupid and says funny things in the email conversation with the scammer. I laughed several times, and I also like his wonderful British accent .

Hilarious!

James Veitch’s Elaborate Wrong Number Prank - CONAN on TBS
When a man confused James for his landlord, there was only one thing James could do — pretend to be his landlord.

Playing trombone to 'wildlife':

When he pauses, they're like, "More! ... Mooore!"

Kay: We hold patents on a few gadgets we confiscated from the visitors. Velcro, microwave ovens, liposuction. This is a fascinating little gadget. It'll replace CDs soon. Guess I'll have to buy the 'White Album' again.

Where is the post on this? Am I missing your German sense of humour again?

It's simply a quote from MIB (part 1) - admittedly sloppy arranged. I guess I would have been more careful if it had been my favorite agent F who had said it. Anyway: here is a probe of my strange sense of humor (I don't think it is German, it's more a mixture of Douglas Adams, Monty Python and Dadaism):

... number nine ... number nine ... number nine ...

Ok got it and I remember at least the punchline now. I learned Martha my dear on piano. Not perfect but ok.
Dear prudence brilliant, nice memories.

I tried Back in the USSR on organ ... "I'm so tired" is also a good one: fits in my list above ...
... and I could have bet that Maxwell's Silver Hammer was on the White, too. Strange, it would have fit much better there than on Abbey Road.

Trying to think of the tracks. Cry baby cry on there? Loved that song, he was the master of that chromatic descending bass line.
Yeah Maxwell was pure macca making stuff up, John had troubles with that
