Title: Star Wars Kid
Post by: Susan on December 07, 2003, 11:15:30 PM
I was going to post this on the "Get a life" thread but ultimately decided it is worthy of it's own.

Ok people's, you gotta see it to believe it:

Star Wars Kid (http://www.starwarskid.com)

And here's another source with quite a list:
More Starwarskid (http://www.jedimaster.net)

Here's the story

The Star Wars Kid is a 15-year-old from Quebec known only as Ghyslain -- his parents are keeping his last name secret to protect his identity. Back in November 2002, Ghyslain was goofing off at a school video studio and recorded himself fighting a mock battle with a golf ball retriever lightsaber. Over two minutes, the video shows the lone, overweight teenager twirling his mock lightsaber ever faster while making his own accompanying sound effects.

Yes, we've all had our dorky, private moments, but this poor kid is living the nightmare of having his private dorkiness projected across the world to giggling Web users. His friends found the tape, and uploaded it to KaZaA as a joke on April 19. Within two weeks, someone had added full Star Wars special effects and sound effects to the tape. Currently, new clone videos are being created at the rate of 1 per day

I've heard of him but never saw the video until now.

If the Matrix really existed, this kid would jack in and never leave.

The mental projection of his digital self would have to be cooler than his real life.
I was waiting for him to hit himself in the head with that thing.

And what's with his name?
Isn't that a car model?

I've seen it before (forced by a friend who thought it was the funniest thing in the world.) Kind of laughed the first time I saw it and then gagged in further viewings from being annoyed to have to sit through all diferent clips.

Holy God - I made videos of myself as Dracula with a few buddies during high school, I hope they never see the light of day. I better destroy every copy myself!

lol Neon. That is the scary thing, with video's out there and the internet....well one night of careless mayhem can turn into a cybernightmare. One thing is for sure in these explorations, children clearly should not have access to a computer simply because you KNOW they're gonna do stuff like this. I remember when my brother had a videocamera, him and my cousin used to have entire skits..they thought they were a regular benny hill show. These days those tapes might get seen by more eyes than just a crowd around a tv in drunken laughter (as I can surely attest for in having had my own stupid exploits aired to friends/family). The worst part is years later you don't really know where those tapes went, you assume they don't exist but guaranteed they are part of someones video collection. Hopefully not kaaza's

Some people should not have access to computers for the love of everything that is holy:

I think the kill bill trailer has to be the funniest thing I've seen in a good, long while.

Probably the best of the star wars kid clones
