The Star Wars Kid

I love the Internet.

It is by any means, one of man's greatest achievements. To be able to share information, instantly, with the whole world is nothing short of astounding.

One of the best things about the Internet is it's ability to make global stars of most innocuous of peple. We have all hear of and probably seen The Star Wars Kid (Ghyslain Raza), or seen the Numa Numa guy (Gary Brolsma), or perhaps the Angry German Kid playing Unreal Tournament.

Well now I would like to suggest another person for this Internet Hall of Fame. I don't know his name but I'm hoping that someone will. He can be found doing something that he probably wishes he could take back (especially as it's broadcast around the planet) at the 2:50 mark in this video from the BBC about the Fable II video game's UK launch.

Whilst we are on the subject, I would also like to suggest (again) my nephew for inclusion into these hallowed halls, with his very own entry: Mental Kid.
