Given I started this thread, it's ironic that it's one of our more popular one and that I never ever use youtube in recent years.  :hmm:

Seven Nation Army is one of the most overplayed songs IMHO.

However, I find this cover rather fetching.

If you stream it gets played exactly the right amount. Advantages of living in the 21st century.  :P

The Most English Photo Ever taken.  We've seen the photo before, but I liked the commentary.  Though I think he's wrong about the brothers; they look like cabbies waiting for rides to me.

A chav is necessarily a drunkard (I assume), but a drunkard is not necessarily a chav.

A British accent I had never heard before.  In another clip of the same show Tunbridge Wells is mentioned, which is in the southeast.  Is this the Essex Girl accent?

An amazingly well done re-telling of Midway. Amateur animation extremely well presented that shows the dilemma and problems Nagumo faced the morning of June 4th.

This is really, really good - IMO.

Wisconsin mail boat jumpers.

Why is that a thing? I'm not against it, it just seems like it would fail 10/10 times if the mail consisted of more than a neatly rolled up magazine.

I thought the same thing.  My guess is they roll up all mail and put a rubber band around it.  Besides, if one of the cute jumpers plunks in the water, there are more on the boat to continue the route.  :)

This was really well done, thanks for the recommendation.
