The Star Wars Kid

This is turning in to something amazing..... read it all !!

GTM


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 broomstick 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 noises to the tape, and the video was linked on gaming, technology, and Star Wars-related sites across the Internet.

ROTFLMAO!! :ffrc: :ffrc: :ffrc:

I don't what's sadder - the original video or the unbelievable time and effort people have clearly taken in adding all those special effects

LMAO I wonder if George Lucas gives Ghyslain Raza any royalties, as “the Star Wars Kid.â€Â
