Why you should never get involved in politics let alone the Palestine - Israel debate :smile:

Well, not youtube. But it is the most incredible and beautiful nature video I've ever seen. It's about a leopard that becomes a surrogate to the baby baboon who's mother he killed.

I'm temporarily locking this thread to resolve a problem concerning some of the videos that have been removed from youtube after the links were posted here. If your post here is deleted, it means it had only dead links in it. If the content of the post needs to be preserved to maintain the integrity of the discussion within the thread, I will leave it up without the links. Unless we find that the issue noticed on some dead links is a frequent problem, the thread will be reopened shortly.

Edit: The thread is reopened. A few notes:
1) Remember that videos linked here still must conform to our forum guidelines. Links to videos are not a way to do an end-run around our restrictions on profanity or religious commentary. Some such videos and related discussion have been deleted along with the dead links.
2) Please LABEL your links with a title of the content. This is important for two reasons, a) people reading the thread will know if the link is one they are interested in following, and b) we can check from time to time that the content at the link is still the same as that intended at the time of the post (this is part of the problem we had today).
3) Consider not linking to content that's likely to be a copyright violation. Many of the now dead links deleted today were removed from YouTube due to copyright violations. Chances are, if it's a clip of something off TV, it will eventually be deleted by YouTube.

Please continue to enjoy the thread and thanks for your attention to these 3 concerns to help us keep the thread open and clean.

I started watching that thinking I'd maybe get an idea of what it was about and then if it was interesting watch it tomorrow, but I ended up watching the whole thing as it was a really good interview and it drew me in. Thanks Ivan.

Bruce Lee developed his own freestyle form of martial arts drawing from Kung Fu and other techniques, and he talks about this in the interview or this idea, few martial arts do this I think Ninjitsu: Tai Jitsu or some forms do this, but it was probably an unusual thing to do at the time.

I've always been interested in Bruce Lee's life, and his ideas were really interesting in this interview, in context with the times, 1971. I wonder if the mystery surrounding his death will ever be cleared up?

That was great, shame they never aired that but I think Mary Whitehouse would of had a coronary.

It didn't even occur to me that it could be inappropriate. Seems barely offensive, but I apologise if you found it so.

Interesting perspectives on nuclear explosions

The first one was very pretty (don't worry no one died in that one it had a satellite payload apparently)

As were the nuclear explosions I've not seen so many before. Disturbingly beautiful. But still I'm glad I wasn't anywhere near it :eek:

Something to lighten my mood.

I'm not a big fan of slapstick, but the observational comedy is great here :smile:

Some cool stuff about male lions. And who dares to say that they are lazy creatures only living off the work of females?

Yes like human male lions, cat like lions face a tough life. Never let it be in doubt; or face the wrath of the Attenborough: grrrrr.

With that absurdity in mind I present a compilation from The Mighty Boosh:-



Not for the naturally logical, or people who don't like the absurd. You have been warned... It will mess with your mind. :devil:

You should see what they do to caravans, I think the shows writers have a morbid hatred of them. Personal favourite was the eight caravan series where they blow them up with different highly inflammable gasses. Very pretty, green, red, blue, yellow, all the colours of the rainbow :smile:

I'd show it but you tube don't have it :frown:
