I did a search at the Something Awful site and couldn't find any information about this, however a Google search led me to the full size movie (81MB) and it appears it was part of an Introduction to Computer Graphics class from 2004 : http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~gfx/Courses/2004/Intro.Spring.04/
It's down in Week 10.
It also says it was made with Pintar's VirtuaLab Mechanics (corrected link: http://pintarmedia.com/product/mech.php) an $89 Windows only program.
Too bad marcelo has left to never return over this. Some people are so touchy.
I doubt that it was the intention of Neatorama to insult or mock Daler Mehndi or his video with this post. It's called "Indescribably Weird" in the title, but that's only a bad thing if you take it that way. Some of us LOVE to find things that are weird. Indescribably weird is even better. That was a great video, and if wasn't for Neatorama there's no telling when I might have seen it.
And for a weird American video, check out Devo's "Whip It".
As for the college students, yeah, they came across to me at first as idiots. However, the longer I watched it, it looked to me like they were having fun as opposed to just making fun. At least the main guy looks as though he's listened to the song enough to be able to mouth many of the words.
Great, however the way he offers them is a bit annoying.
He's also linking to some albums featured at Scar Stuff (presumably with permission) although there are even more gathered up at this post: http://scarstuff.blogspot.com/2006/10/spooky-so-far_18.html
And new stuff in the more recent posts. Thanks for this heads up.
I can't believe there aren't any comments on this. That's hilarious! Way to teach the kids how to cope with an unpleasant situation. In my day it was "suck it up". Now, for some at least, it seems to be "mommy and daddy will fix it".
If you have to sniff twice daily, it isn't terribly "instant", is it? Not to mention it's silly to limit it to men. Perhaps:
