From Jerry. All I could do was blink and hit replay.
If you have never witnessed the bizarre Internet phenom that is “Techno Viking,” I implore you to do so below.
Supposedly this is footage someone happened to grab at a Berlin free music festival (i.e. “enormous rave”) called “f%@kparade” in 2000. In a fit of genius, some YouTuber noticed that it really works better with “Beat It” than it does with the original techno.I’ve been watching Ragnar and his cohorts for days and all I can do is scratch my head each time. The apparent rescue of the blue-haired girl (girl?), the way the camera stays focused on him long after the event is over, the strutting, the dancing – and all the other ravers who just want to walk near him and give him things. It’s too much.[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dJwODowvVY[/youtube]
