Animal Cruelty at its Finest

Please note, we do not actually condone animal cruelty. Is this cruelty, or should the donkey be happy to have got some free air time? Either way, this is certainly one of the strangest ever advertising campaigns. It certainly gets people talking.

In a bid to attract more customers, this beachside paragliding group in Russia flew a donkey along a beach for over half an hour in a bid to attract more customers. This tops the last beach side advertising I saw, where sky writers continuously spray “jesus saves” over beaches in Florida.

John Cleese Speaks Out on Football

One word. Legend.

AT-AT Animation

Here is a cool one for all you star wars fans that insist on not letting the franchise die. I have never really seen the appeal of star wars but the internet has only seen the franchise’s reach grow in recent years, despite the story finishing a long time ago.

Lingerie Football League Most Successful Women’s Sport?

The Lingerie Football League began a few years ago as half time entertainment for American Football fans. Pairing the american love of women and sport, in frankly blatant, crass and borderline sexist fashion, it is essentially hot models playing american football in lingerie.

Now lingerie football has a chance to be the most successful professional women’s “sport” from a business perspective. According to the Lingerie Football Leagues founder Mitchell Mortaza, three cable networks are interested in broadcasting the games next season. ESPN has already broadcast some highlights of the game and overall, the league is averaging anywhere from 4-6,000 fans. Mortaza said he wants these athletes to be taken seriously and that the LFL is not exploiting women.

“The women are comfortable once they understand how they’re positioned as athletes. We don’t see it being an issue. It’s a brand message that has been successful,”

OK Go – End Love Video

OK Go are a strange band. You don’t think of them for being an awesome band because of their awesome songs, because well, they don’t have that many. But you do think of them as an awesome band, because of their simply legendary music videos.

OK Go are now synonymous with amazing music videos. We look forward to the next release almost entirely because it means a new video. The videos of their current album have been perhaps the best ever. The pick of the bunch is perhaps ‘This too shall Pass‘ which may have taken months to plan, but was shot over 10 minutes. Here is there latest brilliant venture into music video history, End Love, which must have taken not long to plan, but days of continuous filming. Fine work chaps.

Mumbai gets Comedy Store

Monsoon thunderstorms are not the only thing heading to Mumbai. With them comes a wave of western Comedy, courtesy of the London first Comedy store.

The doors to the First international comedy club to open in India’s Capitol of Mumbai opened to more than 1000 attendees last weekend. There is a large amount of British expats living in Mumbai. The opening of the comedy store had been delayed since last year.

The Mumbai Comedy Store took over two years to build at a cost of more than £3m and joint owner Don Ward called the venture his most exciting and risky of his career. In India, you must be Indian to own a business in the country, so Ward has gone into the Mumbai venture with local businessman Amar Aggarwal.

“In England, there are 400 comedy venues, India had none and now it has one in a city which is home to more than 22 million people. To celebrate 30 years of London’s Comedy Store we decided to look East for our next major project and I am glad we did. People will see here exactly what you will see in the the UK.”

3 Comedians will fly to Mumbai each week to perform to the Indian crowds which will certainly prove to be a challenge compared to what they are used to. India is a country which only recently removed a ban on kissing in films.
