  • DNABeast, on 10/12/2007, -4/+63Yeah! a waste of time.

    Not like spending all day posting on digg at all.
  • UncommonSense, on 10/12/2007, -1/+49Perhaps he meant skating on gum, which isn't as fun as it sounds.
  • NinjAlt, on 10/12/2007, -2/+48The part where they look like they're skiing on ice looks fun.
  • Sealab2021, on 10/12/2007, -4/+43why cant you just take this for the awesome accomplishment that it is?
  • EochaidRiata, on 10/12/2007, -2/+36Direct link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pv5zWaTEVkI

  • realyst, on 10/12/2007, -3/+36holy crap, how many takes would that have taken??
  • tokyomonster, on 10/12/2007, -1/+30It's okgo, and that was actually their music video for that song. They did a similar thing for the last single, only it was sans tredmill.

    Here's the link:

  • morgrar, on 10/12/2007, -2/+30man, i love wasting time. especially watching good youtube videos.
  • wastern, on 10/12/2007, -2/+28*Skiing on ice is difficult. Perhaps you mean skiing on snow.*

    actually i think it was Skating on ice that he meant, seeing as it looked nothing like skiing
  • myheaditches, on 10/12/2007, -1/+25It's "Here it Goes Again" by "OK Go"
  • MacDork, on 10/12/2007, -0/+23The correct answer is 42, of course.
  • eplawless, on 10/12/2007, -7/+30Skiing on ice is difficult. Perhaps you mean skiing on snow.
  • Lumiras, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20Emo? That song is not emo by any means. Notice there's no mention of crying, breaking up, self-mutilation, or thinly vieled biblical references made in irony.

    Nope, it's just a catchy song.
  • Kobalt13, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17yeah, whats so amazing is that there are no cuts so they probably took like 50 takes to get everything right
  • tastethevenom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12Check their other videos, especially "A Million Ways" -- which is the video that originally got me to like this band. The choreographer of this ***** is amazing.

  • afx1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12Pshh! What wouldn't I do with eight treadmills...
  • rbowes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11Id make a moving sidewalk from my bedroom to my kitchen to my computer.
  • limitbreakerx, on 10/12/2007, -3/+14Now, they just need to chew gum at the same time.
  • Tiabin, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11That's quite an artistic achievment.
  • gooru, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Well, personally, I'd open a gym, but that's cool, too.
  • TheFoppishRhino, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8OK Go always has really hilarious videos.
  • Lumiras, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7or maybe your internet connection is not working properly....ever think of that?
  • RandomSkratch, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8which is why god invented digg

  • nerdofnerds, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I don't understand WHY you would come to the video section of digg expecting something NOT to be a waste of time...

    Some of us ENJOY "wasting time" on youtube videos, but as for you I think its high time you get back to work!
  • Lososaurus, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9By far one of the coolest videos I have ever seen.

    I'd recommend checking this one out that my coworker sent me:

  • frogpelt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6The slow motion fighting is rad, dude!
  • sinfree, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5And here I was thinking Kevin Rose made it. Nobody ever tells me anything.
  • spiffyfitz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I wasn't going to digg this because of the Papyrus font on the top of the page, but it was definitely an awesome little video.
  • Amazan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Forget the music, sign me up for there dance class
  • AZTriGuy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Um, they're musicians, I would have to assume they are making some kind of money. Probably not pimp-my-crib type of money but I'd wager they're doing ok. If it wasn't worth it to them, then they probably wouldn't be doing it. I, for one, liked it. Brought a smile to my day (and from the comments here, I'm not the only one).
  • ij00mini, on 10/12/2007, -1/+513.4 takes.
  • candiru, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5the part where you shut up.
  • Couchy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5ZING!
  • AZTriGuy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Now THIS is what music videos are about. If I listen to the song itself, it's ok. But, when you watch the video along with it, it's awesome. We are the MTV generation.
  • sinfree, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5That was a joke?
  • Izzard, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I'm pretty sure it takes more than a stationary camera to make smooth edits between different takes of four people dancing.
  • MrAction408, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6i love OK GO
  • RadC, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4not stupid...brilliant! So simple yet so entertaining.
  • bustinjailey, on 10/12/2007, -5/+9That song was catchy, anyone know what it was?
  • numptydumpty, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3yes it does, ravitek is speaking out of his bottom
  • Kajico, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Polysics kicks ass, can't believe you got dugg down. That one indeed rocks XD
  • hyukhyuk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3@dent424
    "What's wrong with Papyrus font?"
    http://www.iheartpapyrus.com/

    Also, in this case it's just inappropriate. Papyrus is a novelty Egyptian font (hence the name) and this website is trying to look Japanese. I've seen Papyrus used as faux-Irish or faux-Greek but – until now – never faux-Japanese.
  • KeyLimePie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I don't remember the last time a band really made an effort to make their videos this fun and enjoyable themselves. They deserve a big digg
  • ravitek, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Since the camera is stationary, editing between different takes would be simple.
    Either way, dancing across 8 treadmills is pretty awesome.
  • Mac2492, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Don't worry, I can't clone myself either.
  • zzz@tkz, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Yeah...they are indi rock, far from emo.
  • Rkstar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Ok Go realized that a band doesn't need to spend thousands of dollars on making and promoting a music video after the success of their crazy dancing "A Million Ways To Be Cruel" video. This is their one-upping the same idea. Pretty cool. For those of you who want to see the original video, but don't want to deal with Google Video, here it is in QuickTime:
    http://rkstar.com/video/playvid?musicvideo/okgoamlw
    as well as a few of their older videos here

    rock!!!
  • allarise, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I remember from an interview on NPR, the choreographer is the singer's sister.
  • dent424, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5Whats wrong with Papyrus font?
  • paulansorge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I want some way of ultra digging, or uber digging so I can express how much I dugg this :)
