Video of the Week: Human Bicycle

May 13, 2011 • Emil Hafeez, Staff Reporter  

I guess the long wait in an airport makes people do odd things. That, with a bit of creativity, leads to this video. The title is only somewhat misleading, as what progresses from the left to the right side of the screen could pass pretty well for a bike. Relevance to this week: we seniors are just gliding...

Video of the Week: Hilarious British Animal Voiceovers

January 10, 2011 • Emil Hafeez, Staff Writer  

“Al! Allen! Al!” This clip, part of a several-season TV series airing on British television called “Walk On The Wild Side” is undeniably weird, but also undeniably entertaining. The show takes clips of nature being bizzare and voices over its own dialogue; the British accents...
