Video: 'Look Around You - Water'
What is water? According to Look Around You, it's impossible to describe, but they carry out a few highly controlled experiments to unlock the mysteries behind this element, H-twenty. Watch this video after the jump.
'Look Around You - Water'
Look Around You is a BBC comedy series from 2002 spoofing educational films of the 1970s and 1980s, and one of my favorite things that has thankfully yet to be removed from YouTube. Although not a timely video, I've recently found out, to my horror, that many of my friends have yet to watch this series; if I'm sharing it with them, I want to share it with you too. Besides that the series is hilarious, I need more people that I can say "Thants" and "Blants" to who know what the hell I'm talking about.

One season featured a pretty funny bit featuring casseroles as a technologically advanced, new fast-food trend.
Thants.

Ugh - the scientist's poor hand. Thants for posting this.

This series was brilliant. Wish more people knew about it. I prefer the educational video format of the first season to the news magazine format of the second. But the casserole sketch was pretty funny too.

@Kenji: The perfect eggs are cooked with beakers and bunsen burners, and cut with scalpels!

Oh god..."What ARE birds? We just don't know." That gets me every time. It's a crime that everyone hasn't seen this.
