The Star Wars Kid

From our 'Better Late Than Never Dept'. Back in November 2002, Ghyslain, a 15 year-old from Quebec recorded himself fighting a mock 'Star Wars Light-saber' battle (with his own sound effects). You can see this sterling effort of self expression here:

Little could he know that his school mates found the tape and uploaded it to the Internet on 19 April. Within two weeks someone had added special effects and new sound effects to the original...There are now over 140 clones out there.


See Video Google for lots more or a dedicated site Jedi Master.

A true classic of web interaction fuelled creativity there. Thank god people didn't have video cameras in 1977 when me and my mates were running round the garden with brightly painted broom handles.
