You Tube Hits: Super Mario Bros. theme on a theremin
If this doesn’t put a smile on your face this morning then there’s a good chance something seriously nasty happened to you over the weekend, in which case I suggest you watch Randy George playing the Super Mario Bros. theme on the theremin and at least try to forget about your best mate eloping with your wife, who turned out to be a man anyway, the day after you got fired from your job, your house got repossessed and you found out your children aren’t yours.
Make your own video: Radiohead – House of Cards
Sort of stunning really, isn’t it? No cameras were used in the production of this video for Radiohead’s “House of Cards”. What you’re looking at is data – ether my friends, it doesn’t even exist…
Video: Child climbs into claw machine – child climbs out of claw machine
We saw before what happens when a kid gets stuck in a claw grabber machine but the major mystery was how on Earth the little tyke got in there in the first place. Here today to answer that question is a young lady from the other side of the pond who doesn’t really seem to be fazed by the prospect of being smothered by a thousand Beanie Baby knock offs.

YouTube Hits: the incredible unbreakable umbrella
A man with serious aggression issues and double hard, unbreakable umbrella is a very dangerous combination. He may look like the Milk Tray man and be all mild manner when he’s got the brolly up but woe betide any mugger who takes him on.
YouTube Video of the Day: Nutter texting on a motorbike
They may have taken it down from YouTube but we don’t give up that easy here at Tech Digest. After some minor rifling, I’ve managed to track down a clip of a bloke in Delhi, I think it is, kicking back sending a text message oh his bike while burning down the motorway doing 60mph. Oh, and he’s lying down too.

YouTube Hits: Can a Blendtec blender chop someone's face off?
Those Blendtec blenders sure are powerful, but can they blend a man’s face? Take a look above!…
You Tube Hits: The Trons – fully robotic band
Genius. That’s the only word to describe this, pure genius. I’ve a feeling it was more of a feat of fun and engineering to make a robotic band than a statement about the corporate produced, faceless pop groups constantly churned out by the majors…
YouTube Hits: documentary about Tumblr and the 'idiots' who use it
tumblr. – The Documentary from DaveAOK on Vimeo.
Tumblr, for those not in the know, is a micro-blogging platform where you ‘reblog’ things of interest you see around the internet. It’s a fantastic service, although I must admit mine has been rather neglected of late.
This ‘documentary’ is a hilarious look at the site, and the type of people who inhabit it – ‘idiots and arseholes’, apparently. It’s worth a quick look if only for the chuckles you’ll get with the introduction, done in a ‘Look Around You‘ stylee…
YouTube Hits: Apple iPhone 3G Hallway advert
Pretty soon we’ll be seeing this advert on TV, and moaning about how overplayed it is. In fact, I bet many of you are already moaning about that, as every tech site has posted it in the last few hours.
Still, worth a watch, just once, if only so you can press ‘mute’…
