Kobe goes viral

April 28, 2008

Last week’s hot topic in viral media was a video of Kobe Bryant jumping a speeding sports car. Considering a vehicle would have to be traveling upwards of 150 MPH, I venture to guess magic (perhaps Harry Potter) was involved during this video’s production; but spectacular nonetheless. It’s viral for several reasons: a.) The video has received more than 3.5 million views on YouTube alone, b.) It’s all the rage in the mainstream media, and c.) The original video has spawned a number of “re-edits,” some morbidly funny. Check them out, starting with the original.
