TheAmazingOopah wrote:Here in The Netherlands we have an excellent series of funny commercials by a certain insurance company called Centraal Beheer Achmea. The premise of the commercials is that the person(s) in it get by sheer bad luck in such a perilous situation that they will be almost surely need their insurance company afterwards, if they survive that is. The commercial always ends before something bad actually happens, but when you have just realised the hilarious awful situation. I always like these ones for their originality and their surprise effect, and that they almost always manage to get the same quality.
The (original) commercials always end with the words 'Even Apeldoorn Bellen', which can be translated as 'Time to give Apeldoorn a call', which is where the insurance company is located. Here are three of my favorites, two have a translated ending line:

Prison Guard

Glider

Accupuncture

If anyone is interested in the rest, they can all be found on YouTube as well. Only half of them were actually on TV though.
HaHa I almost forgot those one's, the newone also is very nice

Now I understand why a lot of these 'Mario deaths' never made the cut ([url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mED07-sgC3w"]link[/url]). Courtesy of Filefront. ;)

Oh, and while browsing Game Axis, I come across this [url="http://www.gameaxis.com/home/?blog=2189"]WoW rendition of MTV Cribs[/url]. :laugh:

Michael Brecker - Delta City Blues

My favourite sax solo. Too bad Brecker isn't with us any more.

Kind of old, but funny as hell.

Warning, strong language.

Was a bit bored, and were reading some discussion in other forum about drummers and especially about fastest drummer, when I found [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPW5HEcNgus&feature=related"]this video[/url]. Just note, the volume may be a bit loud, at least it was with my computer. And as I have listened the band bfore, I can say that the drummer does stay in rhytm of the track.

If you have a few hours to kill here's an entire channel rather than a single video. 'A Very Potter Musical', a parody on the Harry Potter books. It really is funny as he..[url="http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=C76BE906C9D83A3A"]OH MY GOD HERMIONE SHUT UP!![/url] :laugh:

Came across an ad of Windows 1.0 with Steve Balmer (current CEO of Microsoft) in it while reading one Tom's Hardware article. Kind of funny to see him doing something like this a long time ago. :laugh:
