Some brave souls created a 4 person high mosh tower at Groovin the Moo on the weekend. It’s fairly impressive.
Skills like these may have helped some people get free entry into the event.
The old man in me is worried about their health, the young man in me thinks it’s awesome, while the circus man in [...]
Nerom Eneas has found the heart of Canberra, which is apparently out the back of the Canberra Centre in Braddon, and is amused to find it empty.
Now come on guys, this is embarrassing. Where were we all that night? Why weren’t any of us hanging out at an intersection behind the mall at 11pm on [...]
Local poet and video blogger Charlie J Quinn has put up some thoughts on BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT! that are rather kind.
BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT! is a poetry slam, it occurs on the 3rd Wednesday of every month at the Phoenix Bar, and it exists because of the rather warm community that has formed around it. Charlie has managed to put [...]
In this video (sorry they disabled embedding) we see three motorists turning around a corner at a dubious time.
Are these drivers doing the wrong thing?
What? No! Those square cyclists need to chill out and stop being jealous of our flabby thigh muscles.
Yes, all these anarchist scallywag motorists need to be taught to fear [...]
Mr. Fibby‘s guitarist Zavi (sometimes known as Sam King) made a musical bike once. It was pretty great.
What’s also great is the fact that the guy posting this up seemingly has no idea who Mr. Fibby are. Then why is he posting this? How did he even get this footage?
Have you watched the video yet? Do it. I’ll wait. I don’t want to ruin it for you.
My original title for this article was going to be ‘Magical fortune telling iPhone app helps Sarah from Belconnen not sleep with a hipster’ but that would be giving it all away.
Everything about this clip is amazing. From [...]
Also Chicken Gourmet, the lack of beaches in Canberra, and a bunch of other stuff.
It takes a certain amount of angry to make a Downfall video about something, I hope Andrew Stacey feels better now.
The University of Canberra has created a truly wonderful welcome video and placed it as a gift unto the nations on YouTube.
There are some magical moments. Below is my own favourite at 2:37.
For the pint of your choosing and/or the glory of being declared a winner, have a go at finding something funnier!
The magic of YouTube brings us this gem of high speed on road skateboarding posted by jumpninja001 with this note:
Raw run down a favourite hill near Canberra with the C.D.D.H. crew.
Anyone recognise the bit of road?
Back at the start of April we put out a call for Canberra (and near surrounds) based local acts who’ve put together music videos.
Today we present that playlist.
If you know a video that’s on YouTube and should be in here let us know.
Also we plan to make this a living list. So be sure [...]
I thought readers might be interested in seeing the wonderful new mosaic at Birrigai.
It depicts the history of life on Earth and is around 50m long!
Skateboarding clip filmed over a weekend with local skaters. Todd Baker and Floyd Scott shredding Belco skatepark on a friday night. Luke Brown all over it the next day. Then the crew breaks in a newly built DIY spot on Sunday afternoon. All while “Head” went on a bender and spent the whole weekend heckling. [...]
I thought this was pretty cute, brought to us by the magic of YouTube
If this video has inspired you to learn some more about Dachshunds, wikipedia is always a good information source.
Having had some success with the virtual Corinbank playlist (and wasn’t it lucky we had at least a virtual Corinbank) it occurs to me we should have a playlist of Canberra music videos.
Rather than just picking the ones I know about and have remembered, or already featured, I’d love to get suggestions from you guys [...]
RBW has sent in this video taken of a novel approach to a U-turn on the Wheeler Crescent and Forlonge roundabout after this morning’s hit and run on a cyclist down the road at Wheeler Crescent and Fincham Crescent.
He had this to say about intersections in the area:

“thisiscanberra” has posted this intriguing video onto YouTube with the following note:
A tourism video introducing Canberra, a great city just a short drive from Queanbeyan, and ranking it out of five stars.
It’s probably funnier than half of what you’ll see at Tropfest tonight.
Entries for our Corinbank ticket giveaway are still open until 5pm this evening.
But for those of you not so up on the local and indie music scenes I’ve put together a playlist of the artists to give you a feel.
There are 35 songs in the playlist and personally I reckon you should do yourself [...]
Hey all,
I’ve just learnt that a good mate of mine was in pretty much every Macdonalds Kidsware ad aired between ’90 and ’00.
Does anyone have any recorded on tape or something and would be willing to put it on YouTube so I can watch it and make fun of him for eternity?
Cheers
We have in the past made merry with Senator Lundy’s YouTube adventures.
But it looks like she’s been investing in software, equipment, and training.
The latest effort is really quite good.
A little gem posted to YouTube by Mossyrocks123 with this note:
Topspeed 3 tunnel hull test run on Lake Tuggeranong, Canberra, ACT, October 04 2011.

YouTube brings many strange things into our lives. Few stranger than the videos going up titled “Out of Towners’ Guide to not Dying in Canberra”.
So far most of their advice seems like pretty good ways to die in Canberra.
If you want more they’ve got a YouTube channel.
Segway scooters are famously not legal to ride in Australia either on the footpath, or upon the road.
But it is the way of scofflaw criminals to video themselves in breach of the law and publish it for all the world to see on YouTube.
This is probably the time to despair of the youth, or at least this portion thereof.
It’s tagged for “canberra snow”, by which one suspects they mean the frost, and comes to YouTube with this note:
Amy goes for a brolisk, accidentally planks, falls off a swing and freezes her feet off.
lauzie0894 has posted this to YouTube and asked:
How many Canberra high kids does it take to close blinds
We could ask “how many know which aspect to shoot video in”, but instead choose to go with “What hope for the future?
The University of Canberra Monitor Online has proudly announced the winner of the “What U C” video competition (we’re sure they were very proud of that clever name).
Yukina Kawase and Tatsuya Yamasaki were awarded first place for their video which focused on the scenery, multiculturalism and kangaroos on campus.
Ms Kawase and Mr Yamasaki were [...]
I really do not know what to make of this video posted by “BrumbiesMediaCentre” yesterday.
It comes with this note:
CA Technologies Brumbies flanker Julian Salvi had a big off-season. Since returning from a year of rugby in Bath, he has been juggling his pre-season with a job as a financial planner and two false teeth.
It’s like [...]

The miracle of YouTube brings us the above snippet by “MrYesgary” posted with the following note:
Guy dancing in Canberra nightclub Mooseheads. Random dance move that is piss funny. look at the reaction of the guy doing the move, he cóuldn’t be happier with himself
Will it catch on?
On YouTube “tailus” has posted what he calls a pseudo documentary with the following note:
Exploring the storm water drains in Canberra Australia. The music is original performed by myself. It goes without saying this kind of thing can be dangerous! Adventure safe.
Youtuber Saltybrutus has a unique form of art appreciation around Canberra. Above is his take on City Walk which came with this note:
found these cute chubby russian doll type of statues @ garema place – civic – act – with my mate dazza & husbear digit
Deserving of wider attention, if not a wider audience.
We frequently get complaints that the racier video and pictures here are pleasing only to men.
Today thanks to the magic of YouTube we present Canberra private school Year 12s gyrating wildly in states of mild undress.
What more can you ask for really?
Enjoy it while it lasts.

The willingness of dimwits to Youtube themselves committing crime is a wonderful thing.
But local boy jacobb9595 has really excelled himself with a detailed videography of his closeted pot growing operation.
He’s also a keen homebrewer.
Why buy when you can make it yourself?
UPDATE: The Canberra Times is onto the story [...]
