This is from last summer - but I just bumped into it.
A comprehensive list – many I know and remember fondly – many which escaped me till now (e.g. No 2 “Christian the Lion” – how had i missed that?).
It’s hard to argue against the “Star Wars Kid” being at No 1.. but my favourite is still probably “David After Dentist” (No 7 – if you only watch one… watch that one).
A good list with useful contextual commentary too.
The Guardian’s online sports pages have a weekly selection of sports video clips (plenty of football) with a mix of nostalgia and current weirdness/sensational stuff – usually decent picks and worth a look.
This week’s:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/blog/2009/mar/26/youtube-bbc-liverpool-lewis-hamilton
is a corker…:
“Featuring a Brian Clough left hook, Manny Ramirez swapping baseball for cricket and a belting simultaneous double KO”
And the very nostalgic: “…1987-88, the BBC did a Goal of the Season competition just for Liverpool.”
