Digital Insanity
Anyone who claims to be a star wars fan will doubtlessly have heard of the Star Wars Kid, who shot to notoriety much the way William Hung did, for a graceless, comical wushu-like video sequence with a staff. To be fair, he didn't intend for the video to be circulated, and err I suppose he just did it just to entertain himself.
Anyhow, as things go, his "friends" got hold of the clip (funny how people never learn... wasn't there some Tammy person...) and circulated it on the internet. Lots of laughter and vicious comments later (fat slob with grace of penguin, etcetc) the issue became moot until digital wizards revived the clip and cast their little spells, or in this case computer algorithms...
Here's one of the all-in-1 compilations. Unfortunately the resolution is a bit crummy.

Okay this one is a lot funnier, and more up my street. haha.
