This guy beating the final colossus in Shadow of the Colossus in 1 minute, 48 seconds. Don’t watch if you haven’t played it and are interested in it. It shows the final colossus, which would be fun to see in-game if you play it yourself. [Amazing run at the final Colossus](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbJ4pzHkhAg&feature=related) ---

I love the Ross Sisters clip. In fact, I now refer to potato salad as “solid potato salad.” Here’s my “Holy crap!” [video](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjW_yvrC0cE). They were dancing on their knees! ---

Why is it “solid” potato salad? I don’t get it. The other stuff was cool though. ---

‘Solid’ is slang for ‘very good’. I don’t know if it meant that in the mid-'40s though. ---
