This has got to be one of the funniest videos I've seen in a long time. This guy really is a good dancer.

Wow is all I can say and possibly.... is this real? I need to sharpen up on my pool skills.

Liked the chase scene from Casino Royale but thought it was just all trick photography? check this out... it's definately real. They call this sport Parkour or Free Running. Looks like Jackie Chan stuff to me.

I took all these photos when I was in China for a study abroad program in the summer of 2000. China's a very interesting place - I think they didn't get that many tourists back in 2000 because we used to get a lot of strange looks from the locals. But now I heard that China is trying to be more friendly to visitors by waging a war on Engrish before the 2008 Beijing Olympics! Unfortunately for us, these photos might represent the last of a dying breed. Enjoy!

I also have a page of Japanese Engrish.

Stick figures love the Engrish - don't spit on the floor and don't jump off the platform. Great advice for the future.

Be Cautious while taking photos! and climbing a hill?

Is it called "dagage" that needs safekeeting?

Or is it "huggage" on west of square?

More advice for the future - no spitting, urinating or dispersing of peels or rinds or skins of fruits. Always defend public hygiene conscienciously.

back to the "FUTRUE"

Who needs 7-11 when you have 8-12?

Run DMC used to rock the Adonis

What would happen if McDonald's and KFC had a baby together? I spotted all 3 of these restaurants within 100 meters of each other on a street in China. Observe the green arrows on the McD and KFC signs. McD + KFC =

Mekinge - and yes, they sold fried chicken and burgers. The line was out the door for McD and KFC... there was no line at Mekinge. wonder why?

Care of the Green

THE SOUL TOWER IS IN A DANGEROUS STATE KEEP AWAY PLEASE

No Striding?

Cabin with Fashionable Feeling (on the side of a scooter)

It's perfectly clear to me what this sign means

Don't shake and flush with water

CHILD IS NOT ALLOWED TO GET THE ESCALATOR SINGLELY

TRAVELLER DON'T BOTHER TO SEE MEOUT

This is how they punish kids back in the old country - kung fu style. There, this is how they open cans and open locked doors too.

Awesome Japanese Lockers Hilty and Bosch from Japan from a German? broadcast. Note - this is locking - not pop-locking (i think that's a made up word). Locking is all about dancing to the beats - acting out each individual beat with a point or a lock (which is when they raise their shoulders and pull their arms up to the side)

Ah, a visit to the home of video games, sushi, anime, and Engrish... Tokyo, Japan. I was there for a week in 2006 for a vacation. I wish I could have stayed longer, but I did get quite a bit of Engrish in a short amount of time. Hope you all enjoy what I found.

Our hotel - Good, I hate it when people Smork around me.

I know some people that would be very charming to the Japanese.

Food for zombies?

I wasn't aware that sushi knew how to call in to place an order?

I don't usually wear make up, but...

This one time it's ok.

Not really Engrish, but interesting nonetheless. I think this is an arcade or an anime store in Akihabara.

How does it taste?

I will try to remain calm.

It sure does.

What a lovely place for some Engrish.

Only when standing or sitting.

which one? There are a lot of bicycles in Japan.

My souvenir from Japan.

Man these kids are extremely bored and have taken beer pong to the next level. I'd rather just play ping pong :)

I see a few people who's vacation just got a lot worse.

Bboying AKA breakdancing gets artistic in these two videos from Korea. Although it is street dance, bboying works well on stage too.

The first is Bboy Ducky from the Drifter's crew with his abstract style.

The second is a remix of Pachabel's Canon in D (the song they play at weddings) played on traditional asian instruments with scratching and beatboxing in the back. The crew here is called "Last for One"

Here's a robot that knows how to skateboard and rollerskate. if this isn't impressive I don't know what is. He can even skate on one foot Brian Boitono style but I would much rather watch this robot skate than BB.

I haven't been posting in the past few days b/c i've been busy with work and I've been playing my Nintendo Wii! I waited in line to get one for an hour in the cold but it was worth it. I've never had so much fun playing video games.

You can make your own characters to play in the game. I never knew this part of the game would be so fun. Here's one of my characters. You may recognize him.

Check out these videos of games too see what all the excitement is about. I love the video of the Japanese family playing baseball.

Wii Sports Airplane (fast forward halfway for the best video) - the control system is really awesome on the Wii. This game looks like it feels like you are holding the airplane in your hand guiding it thru the game.

this video is pretty amazing. It's like being trapped in a time warp or going back millions of years watching this thing. Check out the gills. VERY interesting.

I don't know what to think about this... except that it's pretty darn funny.

how long did it take them to plan the WHOLE thriller dance in addition to the whole wedding?

an oldie but goodie - freaky japanese comedy

Learn how to count in French! oh yea, and some cool soccer / breakdancing tricks.

I've been there too! they are on the plaza outside the Trocadero Metro in Paris.

Hilarious... what if Mario went to the real world AKA Vice City? Bonus Resident Evil plug at the end too. Wouldn't watch this with your boss standing around.

2 of my favorite things combined into one. my lucky day.
