    A few months back I started a thread called the "Ultra Efficient Random Video Thread". It would be a place for all the miscellaneous videos that people wanted to post but didn't really call for it's own thread. Now I put on the restriction that there shouldn't be any posts without a video in them. I figured it would be good to have video content in every post, so you didn't have to dig through the thread to see it.

    That restriction was probably a mistake. I mean this is a message board, so it's only natural to want to comment and discuss stuff. I mean if you wanted wall to wall videos you can just go to a video site or something, so the thread never really took off.

    So I'm starting another video thread, but people are free to comment as much as they want. It's more in line with the point of a message board, but still provides people with the chance to share videos that don't really deserve their own thread. And it's not that hard to dig through the thread for videos if people use the embed option.

    Here's a vid that I'm sure CSI: Miami fans and non-fans alike will get a kick out of. It's a hilarious compilation of cheesy David Caruso one-liners. Enjoy.

    ^^I can't believe I've never seen this little dude fight. Does the shorter guy have no knees. Why does he have to prop himself up to get up?

    WTF was the little one even trying to accomplish. It's obvious that he can't do anything at all. The crawling over and fighting when on your belly strategy was pretty much the worst tactic of all time.

    Great. Now I will have that screaming dude after his lines in my head the rest of the night. :(

    VERY FUNNY Video, m_cable. :D

    Why do we say "get a kick out of" something? :confused: Do we really KICK anything? Are we seriously thinking about physically responding with our extremities? Yeah, you missed it... don't lie.

    How about a random video request? There is a classic video of a successful "Bark Like a Dog" play in a HS Basketball game. I crack up every time I see it, but I've never seen it online.

    Here's a way to make some money. Go shoot some video of your friend getting hit in the nuts. I'm sure that's worth $400 bucks.

    http://today.reuters.com/news/artic..._RTRIDST_0_TECH-WEBVIDEO.XML&rpc=66&type=qcna

    LOS ANGELES, Nov 26 (Reuters) - Break.com, one of the rising number of Web sites offering user-generated videos to rival the likes of YouTube, said on Sunday it would nearly double the amount of money it pays for video clips to $400.

    Back in January 2005, Break.com started paying $50 per video and raised the price to $250 before Sunday's new hike, Chief Executive Officer Keith Richman said.

    The money is even better for animated videos which, due to the complexity of their production, will fetch up to $2,000.

    Web video payouts and increases like those unveiled by Break.com are being closely watched in the fledgling Internet arena where competitors such as Revver, BlipTV or iFilm are trying to improve content to lure viewers and advertisers.

    For the most part, user-generated videos are less than 10 minutes long and show real people talking into their own cameras, dancing, singing or doing stunts. Sites like Google Inc.'s (GOOG.O: Quote, Profile, Research) YouTube have not paid people who upload clips.

    But in recent months, videos like those posted by "lonelygirl15"' on YouTube have become pop culture phenomena attracting millions of watchers. Lonelygirl15 was a fictional character dreamed up by three young filmmakers who have since launched careers based on their "Webisodes."

    The backers of video sites hope to one day rival television networks and attract millions of dollars in advertising. With that in mind, Web search giant Google acquired YouTube in a deal valued at $1.65 billion and completed this month.

    Break.com's Richman told Reuters that so far the site has seen little correlation between higher pay and the quality of videos it receives.

    However, he said the cash has boosted awareness among young video makers and, as a result, increased the number of videos it gets. With growing awareness and better camera technology, he said the quality of Web video should only increase, and he labeled a new type of celebrity on the Web -- the "e-lebrity."

    "We are excited for the new year, because we are going to get better videos," he said. "People are just now starting to realize what works on the medium."

    Break.com is not the only user-generated video site offering cash. Revver places ads on videos that are uploaded to it, and then splits advertising revenues with the video maker.
