'Reaction To The Odd Life of Timothy Green' (Viral Video)

Two boys were filmed by their parents while crying uncontrollably after watching Disney's new family movie "The Odd Life of Timothy Green."

The video of the kids was uploaded on Youtube and is starting to get viral. 

"The ads for The Odd Life of Timothy Green bill it as the 'feel good movie of the season.' As you will see by the reaction of my two sons, they beg to differ," Youtube user "garoth24" wrote.

If you plan to see the film, be warned that the reaction of the boys does spoil the movie's ending.

Watch the said video below:


"The Odd Life of Timothy Green" follows the story of a happily married couple, Cindy and Jim Green (Jennifer Garner and Joel Edgerton), who can't wait to start a family but can only dream about what their child would be like. When young Timothy (CJ Adams) shows up on their doorstep one stormy night, Cindy and Jim--and their small town of Stanleyville--learn that sometimes the unexpected can bring some of life's greatest gifts.

Here's its trailer:

$2.4 Million Bugatti Veyron Get Pulled Over By A Bicycle Cop (Video)

The $2.4 million Bugatti Veyron may be one of the fastest and most expensive cars in the world but it does not mean it can outrun the long arm of the law.

Watch a $2.4 million Bugatti Veyron being pulled over by a London bobby on a push bike as it did not have its front number plates.

"Definition of Irony? 1001bhp Veyron being stopped by a Policeman on a push bike!!! This is a rare site for a car like this to be pulled over. The Olympics definitely means more police.

Dolphin Mourns Death Of Calf, Swims With It For Days (Video)

Dolphin mourns
A mother dolphin mourned the passing of her calf by carrying it on her back for days.

NDT China reported that the dolphin was spotted with her calf in Sanniang Bay of Qinzhou City in Southern China on July 8. It appeared that the adult dolphin, approximately 3 meters long, was using its back to help the baby dolphin, about 1.5 meters long, swim towards the deep sea. But it was later discovered that the baby dolphin was already dead.

"The little dolphin was dead for two or three days, but its mother still stayed with it and carried it day and night, which has touched all of us and the tourists. Just like human beings, dolphins also have feelings. A mother's love is noble and moving,"  Mr. Su, a fisherman, told NDT.

According to reports, the calf might have been hit by one of the tour boats that ferry around the well-known dolphin-watching area.

A Daily Mail report noted that the moving scene raises the question of whether dolphins are aware of their own mortality, which has long been debated by researchers.

Similar incidents have been recorded since 2007 and are seen as evidence that dolphins are capable of grief.

Meanwhile, a video of the mourning mother dolphin and her dead calf has went viral online. The video was uploaded on popular Chinese video sharing website Youku, where it has attracted more than 1.3 million views since it was uploaded a day ago.

Check out an NDT report about the dolphins below:


Marines 'Call Me Maybe' Video Hits The Web

Marines 'Call Me Maybe' Video (Youtube)
"Call Me Maybe," a smash hit by Canadian pop singer Carly Rae Jepsen, has spawned numerous viral videos of choreographed dances to the infectious song.

The latest cover of the pop anthem is hoping to boost the morale of the U.S. military.

During their limited break, a group of U.S. marines in Afghanistan quickly mastered a choreography and danced to the tune of "Call Me Maybe."

Eric Baum, an employee with the nonprofit United Service Organizations (USO), said he came up with the video with his friend and wrote the story behind the clip on his website.

"A few weeks ago, a friend of mine here in Afghanistan, Randy Moresi, approached me about the song ‘Call Me Maybe’. I had just returned to Kandahar from the US and had been taken back by how big of a hit it was, as we often miss out on the latest and greatest while in the ‘Stan and I hadn’t heard it before. She said that people were creating covers of the song, and that it would be a lot of fun for the guys and gals out here if we could create a military version.

"With a day off looming, we got to work trying to get things organized. I’ll say right now, as much fun as everyone in the video is having, these guys WORK HARD! That’s why this had to be planned out ahead of time, as we knew this would have to be fit into as little time as possible. Randy has a great relationship with the Marine command in Kandahar, and they agreed that the idea would be a great morale booster for everyone, but emphasized that they would have very limited time to do this… one hour for each group. In addition, Randy is a former cheerleader, so she got to work on choreographing a dance that would be learnable in a half hour as well as be ‘tough’ enough that a group of marines wouldn’t balk at performing it in front of the Internet."

A video of the flash mob on Youtube shows an emcee supposedly introducing the movie to viewers  at the Yonge-Dundas AMC theater.

Instead, the mystery man, dressed like Cruise's character Stacee Jaxx, begins to sing Journey's 1981 hit "Don't Stop Believing," only to have the emcee join in, followed by other leather-and-jean-clad audience members.

Check out the video of the Toronto flash mob below:

Bus Monitor Bullied By Schoolboys (Viral Video)

Bus Monitor Bullied (Youtube)
A video of a 68-year-old bus monitor being bullied by kids is making the rounds in social media sites right now.

In the video, a group of middle schoolers are verbally harassing the bus monitor, calling her fat, poor, ugly, and other similar words. At one point in the video, she can be seen breaking down in tears while the kids continue to call her names.

The bus monitor was identified as Karen Klein, who drove a school bus for 20 years and has been a monitor for three.

In her interview with the NBC's "Today" show, Klein said she is not going to press charges against the boys who bullied her as she happy with the strong community response.

"I’ve got these nice letters, emails, Facebook messages," Klein said. "It’s like, wow, there’s a whole world out there that I didn’t know. It’s really awesome."

An online fundraising effort, which hoped to gather $5,000 to help send the grandmother of 8 on a vacation, has been launched and has so far raised more than $280,000.

iPhone 5 Commercial Reveals Transparent Apple Phone

iPhone 5 Commercial (Youtube)
A fake iPhone 5 commercial has gone viral online.

The said iPhone 5 commercial, which has attracted more than 1 million views since it was uploaded on Youtube a week ago, features an iPhone 5 concept phone with a completely transparent screen area, a laser-projected keyboard, and sharper-than-ever graphics.

The video was made by 17-year-old amateur designer Dakota Adney who hails from Oklahoma.

"Clearly amazing. The quad-core A5 chip delivers even more power. The laser projection keyboard liberates your thumbs. The new iClear Retina display presents sharp graphics and stunning images. iOS 6 will take your iPhone experience in an entirely new direction. And if there's anything else you need, just ask Siri," Adney wrote.

Apparently, the teen's vision of a transparent display as well as a laser-projected keyboard can't be expected from the upcoming iPhone 5 since these technology are not yet available.

Giant Squid Attacked By Shark In Australia (Video)

Giant squid attacked by shark (Youtube)
A rare giant squid was found dead off the coast of Australia by the team of "The Fishing Bible" author Al McGlashan recently.

While McGlashanwas filming the 15-foot giant squid, an 8-foot blue shark took advantage of an opportunity to feed.

The footage of the attack has been posted on Youtube and is now a certified viral hit, attracting more than 4 million views in just 3 days. Check out the said video below:


McGlashan's group sailed out to sea last Friday to search for tuna and swordfish but instead they found the dead giant squid 30 miles off Jervis Bay in New South Wales.

"In all my time on the water – and I’ve spent 200-plus days out there – I’ve never see anything like it. The giant squid must have died not that long before we found it because it didn’t smell at all and its colors were still strong. Most giant squid remains are smelly and rotten  and just off-white by the time someone finds them," McGlashan to GrindTV.

Since the sea creature lives at such great ocean depths, spotting it is extremely rare. In fact, images of a live giant squid in the wild were not available until 2004.

One Direction 'What Makes You Beautiful' Parody

A group of Australian men, who call themselves No Direction, posted on Youtube recently a hilarious parody of One Direction's "What Makes You Beautiful."

Check out their "What Makes Us Cool" music video below:



If you feel like singing along, here's the lyrics of their song:

"What Makes Us Cool"- No Direction

We're insecure
And immature
We run along this beach as if we're teenagers
I've got great hair
I need 'yeah yeah'
And I'm a silk shirt wearing cuddly bear
We're all unfit and we look anaemic
But this is our present for you

Baby our jobs on the line, we have to look ahead
Australia will get sick of our shocking heads
We're No Direction, we're here with singles to sell
We don't know, we don't know we're terrible

If only we were all 17
Unfortunately we still listen to Bon Jovi
We're confident of success because we're all naive
We don't know, we don't know we're terrible
And that's what makes us really cool

I'll front a band
I'll read your hand
And I look like a fat Russell Brand
I'll smash a pie
I'll touch the sky
And then we'll all make you look into our eyes
Everyone watching this can see it
Everyone else but us

Baby, if we were wine we'd taste like cheap Moselle
If One Direction is heaven, then welcome to hell
And if we're lucky we'll get a run on Kochie and Mel's
We don't know, we don't know we're terrible

Apologies for what you have to see
Just think of us like the cast of an elderly Glee
We're in the sun 'cos were lacking in Vitamin D
We don't know, we don't know we're terrible
And that's what makes us really cool
