High quality, embeddable Michael Jackson clips on YouTube

July 4, 2009 @ 11:57 am

Sometime in the past week, you may have gone to YouTube to check out a few of Michael Jackson’s music videos and realized that most of them on his official YouTube channel are of very low quality. For an official channel representing one of the biggest celebrities of all time, this is disappointing to say the least. Add on top of that the fact that none of the clips on his official channel are embeddable and you may understand why I think the official Michael Jackson YouTube channel sucks (I blame the record company).

Anyway, YouTube (or MJ’s record company) seems to be allowing a brand-new Michael Jackson channel at Michael Jackson Clips that show all of his music videos in high quality (and they’re embeddable too)!

I mean, just compare the high quality video below of “Thriller” with the quality that’s on the official Michael Jackson channel and you’ll instantly see the difference.

Head on over to Michael Jackson Clips to see all of his music videos in high quality.

This is the last known video of Michael Jackson at a rehearsal at the Los Angeles Staples Center on June 23, 2009 (two days before his death).

Thanks Trevor (who is one of the best dancers I know and is one of the founding members of Australian dance group The Collektive)!

Disney presents the Presidents of the United States as animatronic robots

BoingBoing is sharing this mind-blowing video of Walt Disney World’s new Hall of Presidents show which features many of America’s greatest leaders all in one room. The show is full of animatronic robots of Presidents past and present (Obama is featured in the video above) and it’s both a bit freaky and fascinating. I can’t decide which emotion I’m feeling more, but I do know that I really want to go to Walt Disney World now to see this show for myself!

I don’t think I could beat this dog in a race if I were on my bike. Thanks Karmcity!
