On man the cartoon openings are awesome! Both the '80s and the '90s ones! I’m **so** favoriting those. ---

I’m rather fond of [this](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwecmArCTp8) one. Disney movies + Cell Block Tango = hilarity. ---

[QUOTE=Rysdad] I just watched this clip of [gymnastics bloopers.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjNre1yI668) A few of these’ll make you groan. [/QUOTE] Ouch. From the second I clicked it I thought “someone is going to get their privates seriously fubar’ed before this clip is over”, and, well, it didn’t disappoint. Those girls on the beam must have cracks of steel to be able to stay in the sport. ---

This is a commercial, but it makes me laugh out loud. I think most children of the 80’s will appreciate the [Kia Maniac Salesman](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81C9dYo7esA). Now, _that’s_ how you bastardize an old song! ---

[Charlie bit my finger](http://youtube.com/watch?v=_OBlgSz8sSM) The cuteness quotient on this video is lethal. I won’t reveal any more than the title, you must watch it. [Lion meets its former human owners after a year of living in the wild](http://youtube.com/watch?v=Xr1pWzoLvT8) This is so heartwarming and it breaks my heart that these animals are poached in the wild. ---

It’s not a very exciting video, but it’s the last footage of the [Thylacine,](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vqCCI1ZF7o)also known as the Tasmanian wolf and the Tasmanian tiger, shot in 1933. The last one died in 1936. ---

Here’s an [anti-cigarette American Heart Association PSA](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWm6PUGpfVU) from, oh, 1967 I think. Which meant that it came out when I was six years old and gave me freakin’ _nightmares_, we kids used to use it to scare each other at night, and that I could still remember most of the song 40 years later. (Warning for other old farts who saw this when it came on the teevee…It’s **“Johnny Smoke!”** Yes, _that_ \*\*“Johnny Smoke!” \*\* Eeeeeeyaaaaaghhhh!!! Don’t open it! Warning!) ---

I too really enjoyed the lion one. The baby one, not so much. I guess you’d think it was cute if you thought kids were cute. ---

I love animal videos. Here are two more. [Crow raises a stray kitten and they become best friends](http://youtube.com/watch?v=1JiJzqXxgxo) Doesn’t sound that interesting, but it’s actually quite fascinating. The crow even feeds the cat worms and things from the ground. [Puppy howl](http://youtube.com/watch?v=lHAshi4vdbg) This is a very young golden retriever who howls after some coaxing from his/her owner. Again, this doesn’t sound all that interesting, but if you’re a dog lover at all, you will find this irresistible. Watch his little baby ears when he howls! ---
