(You know, I was going to correct the headline, but I do believe it's the best one I've evah written.)
For nearly four minutes -- captured in a single, unbroken camera shot -- the machine rolls metal balls down tracks, swings sledgehammers, pours water, unfurls flags and drops a flock of umbrellas from the second story, all perfectly synchronized with the song.

HEY! Don't be like that. It can't all be about the Community Organizer in Chief.
P.S. Apparently I'm now influencing mega bloggers Jim Treacher and Frank Fleming, both posting this not long after I Tweeted this (@jtLOL is a follower). I'm always the almost-famous guy in the room. Don't ask me about my almost-Haiti trip.

You were right, Snarkey! THis is the Coolest EVA! 8-) I'm glad to see you're mixing it up,
we gotta take a break from the fuckwad in chief every so often!
Very awe inspiring video, it must have taken them ages to set up!
The first one was not this old man's cup of tea, but I did like the ripple or butterfly effect in the last one. I'm still feeling the ripples from my run in with a tumble bug just south of Mexico City in 1966!
That is excellent Snarky. Thanks for posting.
that's cool. must have taken a LOT of patience.
That was terrific.
That video is cool, it's so cool I had to watch it twice to pay any attention to the song, but I've always been a sucker for a good Rube Goldberg Machine.
