It was about time someone knocked Dashan off his throne. The Red Laowai is taking the Chinese "youtubes" by storm.

He's either a really big wanker, or really really cool (if this was done tongue-in-cheek). I'm thinking he's the latter, as no one can possibly be that big of a wanker.

TaiTai over at Sinocidal has posted some videos from when his friend's father visited China in 1971. Though in need of a soundtrack (you can just hum one), they give an interesting peak into what The Bund, The Forbidden City and the Beijing Zoo looked like more than 30 years ago.

A span of 90 unsportsmanlike seconds that is exceptional even in the long history of such dishonorable behavior. Shame on you, Chinese women's soccer team!

Not for the timid, this rather disturbing video is a tough watch even for those of us without a pet cat or dog. This video, put out by Peta, shows some rather inhumane conditions.

An investigative look into China's "black jails" and how petitioners, breaking no Chinese laws, are being imprisoned, beaten or just plainly ignored when they bring their problems to Beijing.

There is, by my estimation, exactly one advantage to getting inked in the back of a Chinese laowai bar: the characters will probably be right. Fithi Garza decided to tattoo his late brother’s name in Chinese on his arm. He did it in a back room in Dalian’s Nepalese Bar.

Technically not "China" related, but those kooky, health-conscious neighbors to the east make exercising just too much fun not too share.

Thanks to The 88s for this.

A news report I recorded from CNN Asia. CNN does their usual "oh the wacky Chinese" story, but the real highlight is the former President of China, Jiang Zemin picking various things during the recent China National Congress.

A bit of conversation about a somewhat-new, and very interesting, British documentary about British businessmen in China. For anyone that doesn't have access to it, the entire thing (split between 7 YouTube segments) is available in the post.

Photographer Ed Burtynsky talks about sustainable development at the TedTalks conference, and presents an amazing slide-show of his photos - the majority of which were taken in China.

Rick's found a wondrous WTF?! video apparently from the China Google Reseller team. It's hilariously low-tech and it's hard to figure out if it's just a parody or not.

From the Danwei article: "A group of American students of Chinese has produced a spoof kung fu film and posted it to Youtube. Apparently shot in Vermont, the film is titled House of Flying Bananas. The dialogue is in laowai-inflected Mandarin, with English subtitles."

On youku’s front page today is a video entitled: “温州大学保安当众将狗打死” or “Wenzhou University Security [guard] beats a dog to death in front of everybody.”

And though I wish it wasn’t the case, the video shows exactly that.

This Chinese farmer, just outside of Beijing, spends all his time building robots. From a tiny little robotic dog to a massive cart pulling robotic man... it amazes me to think he learned it all himself.

Chinese Internet users are frequently subject to the censorship system known as The Great Firewall. This system prevents them from accessing foreign news sites, and anything that the Communist Party deems 'unsuitable' or 'destabilizing.' This new YouTube video instructs Chinese netizens how to
