The Dropkicks is a rugby podcast and sports blog site illuminating your path through the murky world of international rugby, league, cricket, football, baseball, motorsports, golf, netball and competitive eating.

Ages ago we did a couple of videos with Jedi from the ARC and our friend Sara Valesquez (a very good actress).
They are alternate comentaries of a certain quadrennial sporting event of great importance. The reason why they weren't up sooner is, well, we found it hard to find a place that would have them without removing them for infringement.
So best to watch them before they get zapped. We also have a bunch of rugby and netball alt-commentaries too if you want to waste some time.

If you're looking for evidence, look no further than Keith Eliot. He's a Wide Receiver and has just signed on with the Redskins. He can jump 44 inches, vertically. Somehow, it makes him better than

David Coiffier, a Parisian cameraman and time-lapse fanatic has uploaded an incredible showreel of super high-speed camera work. The first part seems to be the pre-game festivities at a Stade Francais game (including some players practicing kicks), followed by hockey, and then just some very cool visual experiments.
Enjoy
