Before I download it, is it the old vid from a couple of years ago that starts with an interview of a kiter in a funny hat. Cos if is I agree its amazing but I dont want to waste my time downloading it again.

Yep it's the one where they're interviewing "Top Hat" at the start.

And they say Kiting is perfectly safe!!!

How do you download it?


Once again Microsoft shows just how much it is peeing in the pockets of the RIAA, making it extremely difficult to do simple things like just download a friggin' video fer goodness sake. *sigh*

Here's what I did:
1) View the source for the page, search for 'wmv', and you come up with this:
http://lln-videos.metacafe.com/Content/ItemFiles/%5BFrom%20%77ww.metacafe.com%5D%20108107.536855.8.wmv
http://lln-videos.metacafe.com/Content/ItemFiles/%5BFrom%20%77ww.metacafe.com%5D%20108107.536855.8.wmv
2) Copy that link into a new HTML page, which you then view in a web browser.
3) Right click on the link, select "Save to disk", and then Bob's yer Auntie's live-in boyfriend.

Of course, you don't need to do steps 1 and 2 now, just right click on the link I posted above and that should work...

Isn't that the one where the dude died? They removed that clip from all websites and you couldn't find it anywhere.

I like how the guy wiggles his legs at about 100ft. He actually had to hook back in. He didn't die amazingly. I dont think he even broke anything. Except perhaps a world altitude record.

I checked the file before posting though I cannot guarantee the safety/content of any of the other links.

Hey Nebs. Your a smart cookie. I would have never though of that and still don't know what you did? Just clicked on the link you posted and saved it. I'm downloading it now so I'll let you know how it went 'cause I got dial-up. Thanks brother
