Google Video Omitted Results

To fight the problem of having multiple videos of the same content, Google Video now has an omitted results feature in which certain results are not displayed, just like the normal Google Search. The picture above shows an example of this message.

Weird Al - Candian Idiot


This is funny video of a guy "acting out" the song Canadian Idiot by Weird Al. Weird Al usually makes parodies of popular songs, such as "It's All About the Benjamins" (and his version, It's All About the Pentiums) and "Ridin" (and his version, White and Nerdy). I'm not sure what song Candian Idiot is a parody of, but its a funny song nonetheless.

[Edit] I found out the song that it is a parody of, and it's "American Idiot" by Green Day.

Advanced Statistics


Now you can see advanced statistics for any Google Video! These include views from e-mail, embed, and the video's rank out of all videos on Google Video for each category. Plus, there's even a chart graphing the views! Great feature!

Lego Animation


I'm not sure exactly what it is, as the title, Jeckyll & Hyde, doesn't seem to have any relevance to what it actually is. But for what it's worth, this is a great Lego animation that uses time-frame imaging to animate Lego characters.

Test Missile Aftermath


This video shows an extremely powerful missile similar to the bunker-busting missiles used in Iraq, and the damage it can potentially cause, carving a big hole in the ground.

Motorcycle and Airplane Stunt


This is a pretty dangerous stunt, as a guy jumps over a live flying plane in a motorcycle.

Play Again


Just a simple addition to the end of the video. Not only does it have "Send a link to a friend" and "Post to Blog/MySpace" but now it has "Play again" I don't know how valuable this feature is, but there you go anyway.
