A man competing against his pet dog in a drinking competition on German TV show… can a man drink (drink like a dog to be precise) a bowl of water faster than a dog?

Btw, I think I saw Celine Dion.

A video of ‘Earth Rise’ and ‘Earth Set’ taken by the lunar explorer, Kaguya (Selene), which was launched by the Japanese in September 2007.
The video is about 9 minutes (without audio), might be boring for people that are not interested in astronomy related stuff.

An advert from Guinness, titled Tipping Point, featuring a large scale dominoes toppling game which includes the use of dominoes, books, cupboards, fridges, suitcases, tyres and cars.
Guinness Tipping Point - Good Things Come to Those Who Wait
The advertisement was directed by Nicolai Fuglsig, who was behind the Sony Bravia “Balls” commercial. The film was shot at a remote village called Iruya in northern Argentina.
I think this ad is just decent; I would expect something better from Fuglsig after his Balls creation (which is a classic)… but it’s always fun to watch these dominoes-effect.
A video for soccer fans… English club Liverpool thrashed Turkish side Besiktas 8-0, a record (biggest margin) win in the UEFA Champions League.
It’s quite a gem even if you are not a Liverpool supporter (unless you are a Besiktas fan)…

English Premier League champion Manchester United have signed Rhain Davis, a 9-year-old soccer prodigy after his grandfather sent a DVD to United youth staff showing the boy playing for an under-10 team in Brisbane, Australia.
Rhain Davis, who was born in England but has lived in Australia since the age of four, was hailed by the British press on Thursday (August 2) as the next Wayne Rooney after the United star striker.
The boy’s dribbling, stepover and goal-scoring skills was featured in a 4 minute YouTube clip (video below), which was viewed more than 3,000,000 times at the time of writing.
United confirmed the signing but played down the hype around Davis, who has moved back to Cheshire in northern England with his father, near the club’s training ground.
“Being here has been brilliant,” The Sun newspaper quoted Davis as saying. “The best part has been meeting a lot of the players, like Wayne Rooney.” [Soccernet]
