As Drawn! says: "Before you watch this insane music video by Jérémie Perin, note that is totally not safe for work. Its video-game inspired animation contains pixellated 8-bit depictions of both sex and pooping. The YouTube description reads "Think Spielberg's Duel + Russ Meyer's Faster Pussycat ... More.
This looks like a truly useless, and depressingly ugly device for cracking eggs (which this TV commercial would like you to believe is a big problem). ... More.
The Arkansas cop who used a Taser on a 10-year-old girl was punished with a 7-day paid vacation -- not for stungunning a little girl, but for not having a camera on his Taser.... More.
As a little kid, I used to think electrical substations would make really awesome jungle gyms. This video helpfully demonstrates why 5-year-old Maggie was an idiot.
This is the Eldorado Substation near Boulder City, Nevada. What you're seeing: A substation like this one is connected to long-dista... More.
Michael Wolf took 100 photos of people living in Hong Kong's oldest public housing estate. Each flat is 100 square feet. Almost every room has the same kind of metal bunk bed. They almost all have a TV, electric fan, and rice cooker.
I looked at all 100 photos. Here's the creepiest room. Here'... More.
This isn't actually a real level -- it's a moded ROM.
But holy crap, it's definately genius. I can't imagine how long it took to put that together. Crazy insane.
It's also not the only one - Joystiq has about a dozen different videos embedded on this page: http://www.joystiq.com/2007/08/22/dont-move-hacked-mario-world-levels-play-themselves/
Yeah, definitely a hacked ROM with a custom level, probably edited with the level editor that got Digged here:

But is no longer at the link that the Digg points to.
Too bad.
They have 3 different ones at CollegeHumor:

The one linked in this blog is no. 2.
My brain wants to stop watching the video, but my hand keeps clicking on the replay button. Then my eyes get all involved with staring at Mario as he gets knocked back and forth.
Great stuff.
Very cool to watch.
It is awesomesauce. I want this ROM, only to load it up and see it for myself.
Break also has a much funnier Mario video, aka the level that NO ONE can play:

There's a playlist of 8 here on Youtube, by the same person. The video featured here is one of them.
It's certainly a fun and hypnotic video, but the level doesn't fully play itself. There are several jumps that would only work with the controller adding velocity... and at about 2:20, you can see Mario on Yoshi walking to the left on the falling platform just before being bounced away. Sorry if that spoils the fun...
Agh, that was marvelous! Delightful and irresistible in the same way that a skillfully contrived domino course is. I especially loved that they got Yoshi involved in that second stage ...
"and at about 2:20"
the video is only 2:23 long
maybe you meant another time
That's a funny one :D
Great to see!
