We’ve seen some silly things here as TFTS and, though this is by no means the oddest thing we’ve featured by way of video clips, I would venture to say with reasonable certainty that a shopping penguin is somewhat out of the norm.
In the video below you can see Lala …

In a somewhat clever bid to promote their company name and their range of products, Hamburg based Dolmar GmbH have produced a impressive motorbike powered by no less than 24 separate chainsaw engines, with the combined power totalling 125kW – delivering 130Nm of torque – being fed to a Harley-Davidson …

You may or may not have seen this new advert from Honda featuring their awe inspiring Asimo robot but, if you haven’t then you’re in for a treat.
A little (probably too honest) background.
The first time I saw this was in a pub this weekend whilst I was supposed to be …

For the sake of argument, let’s assume that Microsoft had invented the iPOD. This cleverly realised video works on this very assumption and applies Microsoft’s particular product branding style to the original iPOD packaging with hilarious results (I especially like the addition of the system requirements list).
