YouTube! - 15 minutes of fame


TEXASMAX YOUTUBE! UPDATE: Per Shawn's request, I have removed the video from public display.  This young man is truly a gentleman and has a promising life ahead of him with his positive attitude. Viewing this video is available only on request. Thank you for visiting!


It was an interesting iDay yesterday... i was interviewing a young man named Shawn who was excited about his new iPhone. As he opened the box to demonstrate the technology, gravity prevailed and an impact test was recorded for YouTube! posterity. This 11 second video received 8 honors by 4:30pm Saturday. It was #1 Top Rated in Comedy, and #4 Top Rated over all of YouTube. There have been over 100,000 views and hundreds of comments, but unfortunately many of them are revealing their base nature of racism and perversity.

What would be a good way to seed an online video like this with a message of vision and hope? Please feel free to contribute sample scripts as comments here, or make your own subliminal messages heard in the comments.

It was also picked up on Digg very quickly and has several 1000 hits.

I talked to him after he came out of the store with a protective cover for his phone.
