    p.s. lol @ cop
    • Dokument, on 04/15/2008, -16/+6PS. all whitenesses were tazered shortly after completing the mario theme.
      • Onyxblaze, on 04/15/2008, -6/+3Why would you want to hurt the poor whites?
    • xkorbin, on 04/15/2008, -1/+21okay, this is digg, there is no need for the "cute" misuse of spacing.
  • maja742, on 04/15/2008, -2/+321out of all the ways ive seen people perform this song, this has to be the most original
  • charlieville, on 04/15/2008, -3/+94Agreed all those people who played the theme on their guitars just got pwned
    • hassanchop13, on 04/15/2008, -2/+8except the kid who played 2 guitars at once
      • BTConan, on 04/15/2008, -9/+2That's really not that hard to do; it just looks impressive.
        • Gndoab, on 04/15/2008, -2/+5umm...yeah, it actually is.
        • hammburglar, on 04/15/2008, -1/+3ill be impressed when i see someone do it with no hands. ;)
          • texpundit, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2I've got a buddy in Austin, TX that plays upright bass in a psychobilly band...with only one hand. He uses his right hand to slap/pluck the stings normally, but uses the stub of his left wrist to fret the notes on the neck. Looks crazy, but he's pretty damned good.
        • wellyuk, on 04/15/2008, -0/+5Let's see your video of you playing the mario theme on two guitars then. Put your money where your mouth is or gtfo.
        • Abomonog, on 04/15/2008, -3/+1Actually no it's not. Anyone who can play both guitar and piano can play two guitars at once.
        • narcofiche, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Abomonog, I've played the guitar and piano for over 15 years and I can't play two guitars at the same time.
          • danomagnum, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1Yeah, It's pretty much 10 finger tapping +
    • ae92, on 04/15/2008, -5/+2Yeah, those morons, learning a fairly difficult song on guitar... what are they thinking? :)

      I agree this is pretty bloody cool but come on, I've tried to learn guitar and I'm pretty sure I could set up some wine bottles and an RC car faster than I could learn to play guitar properly.
    • Philbert, on 04/15/2008, -0/+3You've obviously never heard me play it on air guitar.
    • saggygrandma, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Shigeru Miyamoto (or maybe Koji Kond?) actually wrote the song on guitar first, I remember one of them talking about it in a documentary.
  • Brick86, on 04/15/2008, -8/+297Now try Through The Fire And The Flames
    • xkorbin, on 04/15/2008, -0/+15Be back in 10 days. I'll keep you posted.
      • Yarnage, on 04/15/2008, -0/+8I say Digg bans you permenantly if you do not follow through on your promise.
    • Purin, on 04/15/2008, -3/+11Too bad Dragonforce is actually much worse than they appear on their records.
      And yeah, I've seen them live. They're awful.
      • TheSlinky, on 04/15/2008, -5/+2Same here. Though I have to give Dave McIntosh cred though, the Vadim Pruzhanov and him were actually pretty good. And the singer ZP Theart as well. Sam Totman and Herman Li were unbelievably *****.
        • zackkitzmiller, on 04/15/2008, -0/+11Blah blah I know some names, blah blah, names, blah, more name dropping, blah..
          • TheSlinky, on 04/17/2008, -0/+0Wow you're right, who knows the names of the bandmembers of a band they like? OMG THATS CRAZY
        • Brettus, on 04/15/2008, -3/+7I MUST PROVE HOW MUCH I KNOW! The best band ever, Slippy Titley *****, just played a show in town. Their drummer, DJ Unsightly Urine Stain was awesome, but the singer Cow Punch was total crap. That didn't stop bassist McNugget Face Ass from slapping the bass like it was a 10 year old son of trailer trash! See? See? I know stuff. I KNOW STUFF!1111!!!111 LOLZ!11 ZOMG!!1!!!!1!!11!! PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW
      • moush, on 04/15/2008, -1/+16Let's take advice about metal from a guy named after Jigglypuff.
        • Pritchard, on 04/15/2008, -1/+2But Jigglypuff told us she was hardcore.
      • TotalHalibut, on 04/15/2008, -1/+3I've seen them 3 times and the only time they were anything close to awful was the first time at Bloodstock 03, where they were very much a new group and didn't have a clue what they were doing.
      • drachemorder, on 04/15/2008, -2/+2I don't really care if they're bad live, the album still sounds amazing and they deserve major credit for that.
      • RustyJ, on 04/15/2008, -0/+3I saw them live a while back and they were excellent. I think the real problem i have with their music is how everyone hears it on ***** guitar hero and goes OMG DOOD THIS SONG IS LYKE SO RAD
    • moush, on 04/15/2008, -1/+13Just randomly place bottles with random amounts of water, that's about it.
      • mrloco, on 04/15/2008, -1/+6you forgot about putting NOS in the car and letting a 3 year old drive.
  • U83RMENSCH, on 04/15/2008, -18/+5hahah! omg that was awesome! i think in some places they had to many bottles though :P
  • krupawan5618, on 04/15/2008, -5/+21Where did he get the bottles?!

    Just some food for thought...
    • tdogg241, on 04/15/2008, -3/+25"This one time, I saw a wino eating grapes. I was like 'dude, you have to wait.'"

      -Mitch
    • wipis, on 04/15/2008, -1/+1Well they were all wine bottles. Which are easy to collect if you drink a lot of wine. But more likely they did some dumpster diving at a local restaurant. I make wine and beer at home and I can collect dozens of bottle a week there if I need to.
      • zackkitzmiller, on 04/15/2008, -0/+10Remind me not to stop over for a garbage beer....
    • Peko, on 04/15/2008, -1/+5Endless nights spent alone without hope for a girlfriend. This RC car playing mario is sure to fix that!
      • Zenshai, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Everyone knows 24 hours of internet fame is totally worth it.
  • Hakonan, on 04/15/2008, -7/+67Made in Asia.. Now that's a real shocker.
  • IEatBabies223, on 04/15/2008, -1/+134but did you see the moonwalking bear?
  • DinosWillDie13, on 04/15/2008, -1/+23Wow. now if only they had painted the car red and made the bottles look like warp pipes.
  • McBadass, on 04/15/2008, -1/+24Who drank all the booze?
    • Emachine, on 04/15/2008, -1/+2Well... He had to use something for inspiration to come up with something like that...
    • killbert24, on 04/15/2008, -2/+3Hillary.
      • synergye, on 04/15/2008, -0/+0inaccurate. Hillary vaporizes alcohol.
    • diskit, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Yeah, where'd they get all those bottles?
      Damn.
    • ChromaVita, on 04/15/2008, -5/+2nI:LL TELYOU ONE THUNG!1 iT RESLLY WASMT ME! I DDINT DO IT HAHAHDHSAHA!
      /drunk
    • Zenshai, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1The kid's abusive parents, who also locked him in that garage with nothing to do.
  • snareguy17, on 04/15/2008, -20/+205Well clearly they can drive RC cars better than real cars.
    • tdogg241, on 04/15/2008, -17/+8Racist.
      • onlyclave, on 04/15/2008, -3/+8What's racist about the truth?
      • vfreak2, on 04/15/2008, -4/+1Oh, c'mon, slovakians are worse, trust me.

        They drive straight in the middle of the road if no one else is coming the other way!
    • SilentRamble42, on 04/15/2008, -4/+15Ummmm, I'm telling every single one of them that you said that. Be back in three months.
      • Soave, on 04/15/2008, -8/+6Poor estimation skills. In order to tell even 1 billion people in three months, that's 7,700 people per minute. Next time you want to make an exaggeration joke, think about it.
        • Ranvier, on 04/15/2008, -2/+6If he made the estimation realistic, wouldn't that negate the effect of the exaggeration?
          • Soave, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Assuming he was making a joke about the huge Asia population, he should've exaggerated it in the opposite direction.
          • narcofiche, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Soave, can I borrow your copy of "Exaggeration Rules & Etiquette," thanks.
        • rentmitchum, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Don't negate the premise!!
        • Rikushix, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1The internet is serious business.
      • Zippo, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Don't get hit by a car.
    • Sinai, on 04/15/2008, -16/+6Wow, I really can't believe he's been dug up that much for a blatantly racist remark. That's a facepalm at humanity it general and Digg in particular.
      • ChromaVita, on 04/15/2008, -3/+10It was funny...
        • dethmonkey, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2yes it was. I thought he was going to drift across those bottle...guess not >.> teehee.
      • aguynamedjoe36, on 04/15/2008, -1/+5since when did "facepalm" become the accepted term for describing the impact of racism?

        the comment was funny and not racist, but i am just saying that if it were so "blatantly racist" then i think there is a better word than facepalm.
        it's like saying bush is a meany dumb dumb.
    • moush, on 04/15/2008, -1/+1No, it was a little off when they had bottles on both sides. Also, see how he knocked them all over at first?
      • narcofiche, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2That's because they were doing twice the drinking by that point.
    • FriniK, on 04/15/2008, -0/+6Yeah, gotta love racial stereotypes.
      In the wise words of Jo Koy, " us asians build the best fking cars on the planet but dont ask us to test drive them.. ooh nooooo we just build them"
    • snoop101, on 04/15/2008, -6/+1Racial means you negative towards a race because of the color of there skin or where they originate. Being bad drivers is not racist, its a fact.
      • cygnus183, on 04/15/2008, -1/+2To calarify, racial means "relating to race". Racial stereotype is stereotyping based on race. Which is what it was.
        • narcofiche, on 04/15/2008, -1/+2Racing is not racism.
        • snoop101, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Technically yes, but that's not why we have racism in the world today. People today are racist because they are against someone of specific origin or color. Stating that Asians in general are bad drivers is not racist, the majority are. I have a lot of friends that are Asian and my fiance is one too. theres no racism behind it.
    • rentmitchum, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2At least they aren't women!
    • TheKeithD, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1But... Initial D! 2 Fast 2 Furious! Don't tell me I've been lied to all this time!
  • LegendRoad, on 04/15/2008, -28/+9Dammit, Break.com again with their stolen videos. Here's the real link:

    http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/2029 ...
    • sny1120, on 04/15/2008, -0/+17how is that the original if the video has the break logo?
    • sparql, on 04/15/2008, -0/+9LOL, you "real" link has the brak watermark on the video.
    • Ender008, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2Go away.
  • killbert24, on 04/15/2008, -8/+169That is so hardcore. Can you play "Never Gonna Give You Up"? Its a song by an 80's singer named Rick Astley and my mom loves it so it'd mean a lot. Thanks.
  • viperssxt, on 04/15/2008, -17/+10 looked fake at :38 or is the music just not in sync
    • Osirus1156, on 04/15/2008, -0/+29Its called an online video.
    • Philbert, on 04/15/2008, -1/+1I noticed that too, it's most likely just the framerate.
  • RcHer, on 04/15/2008, -12/+0They keep milking Mario. All great Japanese videos make reference to Mario somehow.
    • Scrappy1850, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2sounds like a terrible movie: Milking Mario
      • Abomonog, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2Coming next May by 20th. Century Fox.
        • texpundit, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2Actually, that'd probably be Vivid Video...starring Ron Jeremy as Mario and Jenna Jameson as Princess Peach.
    • xkorbin, on 04/15/2008, -0/+8Well, here's the problem with your statement: The people in that footage are Chinese, and the footage has links to a .cn domain. Hm. .CN....
      doh.
      • fluxingtontheIV, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1dont get too up in arms. he just comment stole from one of the many racist pricks on that site. he wasnt even original...
  • AmICoolNow, on 04/15/2008, -11/+6I'm sorry to be racist, but did anyone else know before watching the video that he would be asian?
    • manystyles, on 04/15/2008, -2/+0yea your cool now
    • JudgeMonkey, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1I can say with full certainty that I did indeed not expect them to be anything in particular.
  • Feep, on 04/15/2008, -2/+68I can't decide whether or not this is a contribution to society.
    • cannabrain, on 04/15/2008, -3/+2No, absolutely not
    • Scatropolis, on 04/15/2008, -0/+27he said as he submitted the comment and continued to surf digg for another hour or two.
  • FizzanoMatrix, on 04/15/2008, -3/+2Is that the Gentoo racecar from PCOnline he's using?
  • fotbr, on 04/15/2008, -8/+3I wish I had that much time to goof off.
  • holyskeleton, on 04/15/2008, -10/+3and that's just one way chinese people spend their time...

    Now you know.
    • ChromaVita, on 04/15/2008, -1/+1Masturbates. Oh I thought it was an actual question...
  • Danzinger, on 04/15/2008, -10/+2Definitely needs a girlfriend.
    • BlackAdderIII, on 04/15/2008, -1/+2Welcome to digg.

      PS: If he had a girlfriend, that awesomeness would likely never have happened.

      You might like to think about that for a moment.
      • synergye, on 04/15/2008, -0/+5He probably has one... what do you think drove him to drink so much booze?
        • ChromaVita, on 04/15/2008, -1/+2The depression from lack of a girlfriend?
  • brodieface, on 04/15/2008, -3/+50Better - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJeB81c0bVk
    Australian beer ad, and it's 100% real.
    • echolyean, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1I've never heard of that kind. Do they export to the US?
      • kledge, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1ah Victoria Bitter the only real Australian beer no one in aus even drinks Fosters anymore
    • Yarnage, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2Australian beer? I thought Fosters was the word beer for you down underiners. At least that's what TV told me.
    • brodieface, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2You basically can't get Fosters in Australia.
  • bryanwebster, on 04/15/2008, -1/+11dugg for the lethargic security guard at the end
  • PHiZ187, on 04/15/2008, -0/+44The Internet is now complete.
  • NicholasLeone, on 04/15/2008, -9/+0CrazyJaps.com
  • 007kz, on 04/15/2008, -11/+2Oh, oh, chinese people. And according to the Book of Digg, Article 345, Section 25, at least one comment in an article that has anything to do with China has to have this comment:
    FREE TIBET!!!!

    Now the comments section is complete. :)
    • eaterofpies, on 04/15/2008, -1/+2fail.

      and by the way, the guys in the video are speaking japanese.
      • 007kz, on 04/16/2008, -1/+1So basically, you have no idea what chinese and japanese sound like. Fact: They're speaking chinese.

        Please go away, ignorant egotistical person.
  • DurtyJ, on 04/15/2008, -7/+1I have never been anything so impressive in my lifetime on the internet. ***** astounding.
  • diggrnumber1, on 04/15/2008, -8/+2i'm speechless (literally - i'm typing, not talking). i just thought i had to make a comment since this is bound to become the top story on digg.
  • Arcae, on 04/15/2008, -6/+1Dugg just for the effort. Also dugg because it was awesome.
  • NuclearWookie, on 04/15/2008, -5/+3"Rand"? That's wrong for two reasons. Are all of you Digg people completely illiterate?
    • thesonofdarwin, on 04/15/2008, -0/+4Says the person who put his punctuation outside of the quotation marks rather than inside where it belongs. Yes, even if the punctuation is added by you and not originally found in the quote, it still belongs inside. Funny that.
  • klick37, on 04/15/2008, -0/+12I just had a nerdgasm.
  • brownrecluse888, on 04/15/2008, -10/+0I'm confused.....how does this apply to Obama being the greatest human to ever exist?? God called...he want's his greatness(Obama) back....
