WARNING! Codex has said we can have this back, as long as NO-ONE posts Screamers or Rickrolls. If you do, you will receive a warning from the mods.

With that out of the way, post some Youtube Gems here.

To start us off, I have a couple of audio illusions, the second is much simpler than the first, but give them both a try.

For this one, you're going to need good quality stereo headphones. Press play and close your eyes. It's great.
Just a little warning though, there is a bit which might make you jump. If you don't want to hear it, pause after he says "Algorithms"
The Virtual Barbershop

This next one is just a simple illusion, but it's quite weird when you first listen to it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugriWSmRxcM
You don't need headphones for this, or to close your eyes. For an explanation of how it works, highlight from here Basically, it's two scales on top of each other, one is louder than the other. When you replay the tune, you're expecting to hear an increase in pitch, so you hear the higher one. I'm sure more musical people could give a better explanation to here

And yes, it's just a coincidence that these are both audio illusions. Post any youtube gems you find, with a couple of guidelines:
No Rickrolls (Just to be on the safe side, don't even link to one if you say what it is, or if it's a particularly good remix)
No Screamers
If something is not safe for work (e.g. strong language) then mark the video "Warning: NSFW"

With that out of the way, happy Youtubing!

Boxxy deserves to be murdered.

I'll find some of my favourite videos later but as usual I'm meant to be working at the moment.

Ultimate Morrowind Secret videos. I'd post a link but the school computer won't let me.

Billy Mays Dubs by Jabo0odydubs are great and Mark3611's videos are great. "Suicide Putty and The Big City Toilet" are Hidden Gems.

Oh Lord. I just watched a few of her videos; I now feel rather sick. That person makes me want to repeatedly headbutt the pavement, so the pain makes me think of something else. Excuse me while I erase that terrible half-hour from my mind.

Youtube is the ultimate time kill. I think i have like 3k videos watched on my account. Most of that is because i use it as a jukebox though. However i do my fair share of browsing. Its fun to click on related videos and end up on the opposite end of where you started.

Heres a great little gem, its a freestyle battle translated by IV league graduates, or at least, really smart dudes:

Oh yeah that involves adult language, well not profanity necessarily, but talk of adult situations. Ye be warned.

For my kung fu brethren this is probably my favorite MMA moment:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=267i7rKeECA

Anderson silvas fight against ryo chonan. Silva gave text book examples of the effectiveness of muay thai through the whole match, picking chonan apart. Suddenly out of nowhere chonan pulls off a flying leg scissor into a heel hook making silva tap.

Please do, crack, as I said in the first post:
No Rickrolls (Just to be on the safe side, don't even link to one if you say what it is, or if it's a particularly good remix)

To add to the topic:

I'M ON A BOAT (EDIT: Not safe for work)

On my favorites list I have a "RickRoll: The Literal Version" but I don't know if I can post it here. Because it technically a remix of it and ol' Mantra said to be on the safe side.
