Where the hell is Matt?

So... while I procrastinate on finishing my next post:

Here's a great video a friend sent me. It's called "Where the hell is Matt?"

Apparently Matt has been doing this for quite a while now (back to 2005)... and besides the concept being hilarious, it's also very moving. One of the current top rated comments sums it up well:

No one is pretending a YouTube video can change the world forever, but if it can change the person watching, just for a few moments, that's a good enough start for me.

Well done, Matt. 

Agreed.

I just read an amazing book called Escape from Camp 14. It profiles a North Korean who escaped from one of the nation's maximum security labor camps. Being born in the camp, he had no notions of the outside world - he wasn't even aware he was a "North Korean." After 23 years in the camp, he escaped to China, then South Korea and America.

Part of the video was shot in Pyongang, the capital of North Korea. To think he enters into the highest security nation in the world to shoot a dance video is pretty incredible, and I think it gives me a glimmer of hope for that nation. There's no way that would have been possible 10 or 15 years ago.

If you've already seen it... I apologize, I haven't really been in the youtube loop lately...
