This video of a chimp that's been taught to play Ms. Pac Man is just sad -- I feel unbelievably sorry for the chimp.
This video of enormous animatronic puppets created to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is moving on so many levels; poignant, impressive, humbling and just beautiful. Enjoy.

The second one is indeed very inspiring... thanks for pointing it out.

That second video is absolutely stunning. I love the way the puppeteers are all dressed kind of like Lilliputians.
I dread to think how long it must have taken to practise the synchronised control to make her look so life-like.
Thanks for posting that link Reuben.
