Chihuahua vs Doberman
I hope the filmer had good reason to trust that Doberman. For many dogs that truly is a dangerous situation.

Real Life Russian Braveheart - Two Enormous Gangs Brawl
So weird. I'm surprised that people dumb enough to engage in street brawls still maintain some degree of honor about it. I can't believe that someone doesn't get all stabby or shooty. I mean, if it's just large scale MMA fighting then that's dumb but it's not Sarah Palin dumb.

SNL: Palin/Biden Debate sketch
Not bad, not bad. They kind of had to stretch with Biden, but the Palin stuff was well done.

Biden Chokes Up During Debate
>> ^artician:
I find his speech particularly heart-rending as he reads it from his little print out on his podium.


I can't tell if you're trolling, but the candidates were not allowed any prepared material. Neither of them. The organizers put blank paper and writing utensils on the lecterns and that's it.

How NOT to break a world record!
Um... Yeah... that's pretty amazingly stupid.

I can not remotely fathom breaking a coconut with my bare hands. Is it even possible? Or is this some kind of cruel setup?

Awesome save by... Wait a minute! Who???
Here's the event that Quboid is talking about. Not sifting it because it's going to be taken down by youtube.

Little Bill O'Reilly Spins It!
I hate seeing children exploited for political purposes.

Sarah Palin's Greatest Hits! [TPMtv]
Because it would violate Videosift policy.

This is more than a rearrangement of existing Palin videos. I hadn't seen some of these clips before.

If All Movies Had Cell Phones
Well done, well done.

But kind of sad, in a way. The world was in some ways more interesting when long range communication wasn't completely trivial.

Ball boy scores - goal is counted!
Agree with Legacy. Soccer is my favorite sport to play, but it's such a terrible sport at a competitive level because of poor officiating, arbitrary off-sides calls, lack of instant replay, diving, games decided by the refs through PKs, etc...

And for whatever reason, women's soccer seems to have less of those things, so I actually enjoy watching it much more.

Pick a damn magazine!
How can it have been submitted over an hour earlier? This video was published 20 minutes ago. For your math to be right, this video would have to have been published four minutes after it was submitted.

In other words, are you sure you're not comparing the time at which this video was published to the time in which the other video was queued?

Man attacks police car by running at it with a knife
>> ^Maze:
You don't think he's perhaps suffering mental illness or under the influence of drugs? In which case this is an incident he may well regret later, or at least be helped to overcome in some way?

From what we're told in the video he hasn't actually harmed any one yet, and poses no immediate threat to the officers or anyone else we can see nearby. And you think he should die.

That's mighty GeeSuss like of you.


From what we're told in the video, knifey "had already assaulted people in the neighborhood" but that is coming from an officer defending his colleagues actions.

And I disagree that he posed no immediate threat to the officers. I mean, he jumped on a squad car and tried to open the driver side door knife in hand.

Man attacks police car by running at it with a knife
xxovercastxx, I agree cops are too quick to escalate force in many situations, but this guy is projecting lethal force at the officers. I would have felt very threatened even in a car when he tries to open my door or break through my window.

Man attacks police car by running at it with a knife
Hitting him intentionally was justified, in my opinion. Maybe I've played too much grand theft auto, but that seems like a pretty good way to deal with a knife wielding maniac.

What's your alternative? Get out of the car and try and Taser him from close range as he charges you? No, that's not reasonable. The only alternative is shooting him. And incapacitating him with a moderate speed collision seems more humane, actually.

Awesome save by... Wait a minute! Who???
That's freaking BS that the goal wasn't counted.

Two things - doesn't a referee have the ability to assume that the play had continued without the penalty? For example -- a defender catching a shot on goal with his hands. Can't the ref just red card the guy and assign the goal without the need to take a penalty kick?

Second, this guy should be banned from the league for a stunt like this.
