We’ve all got talents. Some of us can create great art, others excel at sports, and some people like Alyssa can say words backwards.

Now you might scoff and say that a talent like Alyssa’s is pretty useless in the real world. That may be so, but you’re likely to still find yourself transfixed by this video.

I know I was certainly sucked in as Alyssa’s carload full of friends threw word after word at her. Without hesitation she shot them back in reverse.

Now admittedly I don’t know enough to be sure Alyssa’s really repeating every word perfectly backwards, but I trust she knows what she’s doing, don’t you?

We’ve seen some dogs performing some pretty amazing tricks on WebTVHub, but few have the skills of Ozzy the Dog.

This video is admittedly a bit of a slow burner. Much of the video features Ozzy almost balancing on the rope before giving up. But when he nails it, boy does he nail it.

Word is that Ozzy enjoys balancing so much that he does it on metal chains, signs, and any other skinny surface that he can find.

Something tells me his quiet days playing in the backyard are numbered. Surely it’s only a matter of time before a pup so talented joins the circus!

Run For Your Lives 2011 from Alexander Turoff on Vimeo.

“See? Not all Americans are fat and lazy. Some of us like to do awesome things like running 5K obstacle courses with zombies. I’ve been training for this shit and I’m ready for the cannibal holocaust.”

Why struggle and train and do all that preparation for a boring old regular 5k run when you can go on a 5k run with zombies.

I love this idea. What I love even more is how many people will take this seriously as training for the zombie apocalypse. You have to love that.

But really, this is a fantastic idea. It makes fitness fun, which is always a good thing.

This video shows The Slow Mo Guys smashing two fluorescent light bulbs together in the garden to see how doing so looks in slow-motion. It’s kinda interesting, although not the most surprising by any stretch.

I’ve featured The Slow Mo Guys regularly here on WebTVHub. I find some of their videos fascinating, although I’m starting to wonder if they have run out of good ideas for things to film in slow-motion.

These fluorescent light bulbs are a classic case. On paper they look as if they’ll produce visually-stunning results. But in actuality it’s just some smashed glass and a puff of smoke.

The humor of the video just about saves it from being too dull to share.

In the hilarious style Gordon Ramsay’s How to Treat a Lady, Nigella tells you all about what she likes from a sexual encounter.

There is a Jamie Oliver video as well, but it wasn’t nearly as hilarious as this video.

And anyone who has watched Nigella’s shows would have to know that it would be very easy to put together a video like this. She always seems to have a bit of a naughty attitude when it comes to food.

Honestly, when the Gordon Ramsay one came out, I fully expected clips from her show to be next.

Bon appetite.

This video shows a cat drinking beer straight from the can. He’s (I’m assuming it’s a he the way he’s downing it) so into it that he’s got hold of the can and won’t let go.

And don’t you dare try and wrest the can from his grasp.

This is certainly a strange phenomenon. As a joke I’m always offering my cat a swig of whatever alcoholic drink I’m consuming that day. And without exception he takes one sniff and walks off in disgust.

Almost as entertaining as the cat drinking beer is the discussion being had on YouTube about the video. Some people are concerned about what the beer is doing to the kitty, while others have cleverly pointed out that Miller Lite is for pussies. Clearly.

Humans pay big bucks to ski and snowboard in some of the world’s most exclusive snow resorts. But it seems that all crows need is a snowy roof!

This resourceful little crow appears to be having the time of his life as he snowboards, or should that be crowboards, down a roof covered with the white stuff. He clutches his little board in his beak and completes run after run like a seasoned pro.

I just wonder where his feathered friends are. You’d think any crow capable of developing a sport should be the most popular bird in the flock!

ImprovEverywhere has done it again with the 11th annual No-Pants Subway Ride.

ImprovEverywhere is a group that does things on large scale that alter the way people see their day.

From having masses of people just stop, freeze on the spot for a couple of minutes in stores or rail stations, to having hundreds of people in a park turn off their radios at exactly the same moment.

With the no-pants subway ride, thousands of people board trains and remove their jeans, trousers and slacks to stand around, unconcerned, as if it is a normal everyday thing, in their underwear. The reactions of those not in on it can be priceless.

This year it happened in 59 cities in 28 countries around the world…

Australians have been a bit dissatisfied with their prime ministers of late. Julia Gillard’s a wooden backstabber who stands for nothing, the guy before her was weak and pretentious, and the fellow before that was an out of touch lap dog for George W. Frankly we haven’t had a good one since Bob Hawke in the 80s, and this video reminds us of that.

At the cricket recently Hawkey showed us he’s still got it when he downed a schooner of beer in under 30 seconds. Now that’s the kind of skill we want the person holding the top job to have.

I know he’s 82 now but something tells me we’d give him the PM position back in a heartbeat!

This is a special trailer for The Devil Inside, which opened strongly in the U.S. this weekend. It shows some of the audience reactions as they watched the film for the first time.

The critics hate The Devil Inside, with one even describing it as the worst movie of the year (even though we’re only a week in to it). But moviegoers are paying their money to see this film regardless.

It’s obvious why. The Devil Inside is the latest movie to adopt the ‘Scare the audience shitless’ tactic, following on from the likes of Blair Witch and Paranormal Activity. The critics hated those movies too.

The fact is people like being scared, as long as they know it’s all fictional and they’re not actually going to come to any real harm. The Devil Inside plays on that love of frights.

Scott Weaver’s “Rolling through the Bay” is an amazing replica of San Francisco done with over 100,000 toothpicks over a course of 35 years.

As amazing as the concept seems, it’s more breathtaking when you listen to the “tour” he gives about his creation.

This model will be available to see on display at the Exploratorium Museum in San Francisco later this year. This is just one of the many masterful creations available to see at “The Tinkering Studio” part of the museum where “experiments with art” can be seen.

I’ve seen some pretty cool toothpick models done, but this certainly tops them all. The hundreds of hours of work put into this certainly paid off.

Vending machines are a brilliant innovation. At least until they go wrong, which they do often. Thankfully it isn’t always a bad thing.

This video shows How one group of teenagers scored a huge win on a vending machines, getting three bottles of drink for the price of one.

The set-up is that two bottles are hanging precariously over the edge of the machine, leaving an opportunity to get three bottles for the price of one. With a little skill and a lot of luck.

They buy a bottle of water and get two extra bottles free. Bargain. And their over-the-top reaction is great to watch.

What happens when you put a pair of pants on your dog and then get someone to knock on the door? Well, this happens, as a matter of fact.

It was Christmas Day when, for some strange reason, this guy decided to put a pair of Santa pants on his dog. Cute. Until someone knocked on the door and something unexpected happened.

The dog walked down the stairs just on his front paws. Why? I haven’t a clue. Perhaps he didn’t want to trip over the bottom of his pants, which happens to humans all the time.

While I don’t necessarily agree with putting clothes on animals, which includes chucking a pair of Santa pants on your dog over Christmas, it does make for a hilarious clip.

“Yet another parody on the Mastercard cost/priceless ads, but this time it’s about Mastercard witholding $15M in donations made to Wikileaks…”

We have all seen plenty of different takes on the MasterCard ‘priceless’ ads, but this one has to be the most brilliant.

Talk about sticking it to Mastercard.

Okay, so some people think he is a hero, some people think he is a conspiracy nut and more others wonder if he’s actually albino or something…

Take a few breaths, stop drinking so much caffeine and appreciate this mockery of a financial giant for what it is: just plain heaps of fun.

If you want to win at Ant Crusher there is one very simple yet elegant strategy: get an African bullfrog and sit him in front of your phone with the game running.

This frog owns at this game, but only because it thinks the ants crawling down the screen are real and it’s about to get a mouthful of tasty bug.

I do think the ending was set up. The guy holding the phone purposely moves his thumb round to the front, offering it up to the frog as food. The frog reacts right on cue, giving the video the perfect finish.

Some people are complaining this is cruelty to animals. To these people I say, “Get a life.” You’re pranking a frog, that’s all. It’s not like it’s being hurt, physically or emotionally.

With Christmas fast approaching we’re all spreading cheer and goodwill towards our fellow man. Except this dog, of course, who prefers to spout doom and gloom.

This isn’t merely a case of some clever computer trickery. Forget those dubbed dogs; this one really speaks. I can’t imagine you could carry on an intelligent conversation, but if it’s commiserating you’re after, this is your canine.

He says “Oh no” clear as a bell, admittedly with some coaching from his enthusiastic owner. He might have had his figurative arm twisted, but he performs the trick well and that’s good enough for me!

You’ve got to love Google. OK, so maybe not the corporate side of the company, the sometimes-intrusive advertising, or the fact it shutters products quickly. But its easter eggs are cool.

The latest Google search easter egg is very topical for Christmas. And here is how to turn it on…

Go to Google.com and type ‘Let It Snow’ into the text box. The normal search results will appear, but then it will begin to snow. Eventually snow will fill up the screen, enabling you to draw in the snow using your mouse.

This is awesome, but I’d make the most of it while you can. I’d guess the Let It Snow Google easter egg will only work for a small amount of time. Until the new year, possibly.

A Mythbusters cannonball experiment went all kinds of wrong when it left the testing facility and crashed into some houses and a minivan!

All in a day’s work…

“It was crazy. That’s for sure,” Sgt. J.D. Nelson of the Alameda County Sheriff’s Department told the Daily News.

“If someone asked me two days ago, ‘Could this homemade cannon shoot that far, off a hill into this neighborhood?’ I would have said no way. But now it’s confirmed.”

Confirmed, to say the least. Dubbed a ’suburban pinball’, it was lucky that no one was hurt as the cannonball made its way to it’s resting place.

Ernest Kahn doesn’t just know a thing or two about fashion. The Louis Vuitton sales associate is also a dual national yo-yo champion. So when company CEO Yves Carcelle stopped by his Philippines store, Kahn figured it was the perfect opportunity to reveal his other talents.

Carcelle seems tickled pink by his worker’s tricks. I must admit that I’m lucky to get the toy moving up and down with any regularity, but I’m really impressed by the things he gets the yo-yo to do. I guess you don’t win titles without some serious skills!

Apparently Carcelle was so taken with the act he’s promised to make a yo-yo for Kahn in Louis Vuitton’s iconic Damier Graphite print. I’m sure plenty of LV fans would be jealous!

This is a few years old, but you know they would be able to pull the same prank today and get similar results.

I love how not only did they manage to convince some of the people that the Canadian border had actually moved but that they were able to convince people to swear an oath to Canada.

Oh, yes, America; you should be proud. I don’t care how old the video is. Haha.

Now, I wonder what kind of reactoins they would have gotten had the prank been that the Mexican border had been moved up.

That would have been interesting.
