The elaborate one-shot music videos by the band OK Go have been an Internet sensation — particularly their Rube Goldberg machine video for the song “This Too Shall Pass.” The comedy troupe The Station responded by creating this video lampooning the children’s game Mousetrap, which consists of building a Rube Goldberg machine as gameplay advances. It’s called “Mousetrap Never Works.”

This would be funny except Mousetrap always worked for us as kids. Even after we broke parts of it we could jerry rig something to make it work. Half the fun was trying to add parts to extend the machine.

Except the OK Go video is *edited* to be a one-shot, and is not actually a single take. The curtain is the most obvious wipe.
