Yousef is a 17 year old Kuwaiti kid with a thing for backflips. He went around Kuwait and shot clips of himself backflipping in front of different landmarks and inside different places with the idea to show Kuwait in a different way.

He makes backflipping look so easy. [YouTube]

I had no idea who Emmy was until a reader emailed me telling me about her. Emmymade in Japan is a YouTube channel where Emmy usually reviews different kind of candies (mostly from Japan) while eating them in front of the camera. Well it seems she has some Kuwaiti viewers because someone from Kuwait sent her a box full of treats all the way to Japan. It’s really fun watching her trying to figure out what everything is. [YouTube]

Thanks Teeba

Exit is a short film that revolves around a Ministry building in Kuwait. It’s really not that great a video but I really liked the idea of a bored employee making a film at his workplace. [Vimeo]

I was watching the video Falcon Eye on Q8 All in One when it reminded me of the video above called Earthflight. If you haven’t watched it before you should. [YouTube]

Note: Those are real birds and not 3D animations

No idea why the guy was driving on the emergency lane in the first place when the left lane was free of traffic. [YouTube]

This is another angle of the fire that took place near Marina Mall which I posted about two days back. This video of the fire was taken from a tenant living in the building right above the fire. [YouTube]

Thanks Abdulrahman

Palm trees next to a building near Marina Mall caught fire in the morning, Some of the cars were burnt as a result. Kuwait fire department was quick to douse the fire, small video from the incident (I guess no one was injured in the incident)

Happened earlier today. [YouTube]

A new video by tjcfilms, this one is with BBoy Psycho who talks about the BBoy scene in Kuwait while also displaying some of his moves. I really like the videos tjcfilms keep producing since in a way he keeps us connected with scenes that aren’t really mainstream or very exposed. The music is by Gemini and called “Nothingness”.

Dubai III timelapse from Richard Bentley on Vimeo.

At the 2 minute mark Dubai actually looks like a scene from Blade Runner.

Looks like it happened earlier today outside Al-Ikhlas Private School. [YouTube]

An electrical transformer caught on fire earlier today near Kabab al Hajat and one of my readers was able to capture the footage above while driving by. [YouTube]

Thanks Keith

Update: Below is another video taken from the opposite site (heading towards Fahaheel) and it was shot just as the fire had started. [YouTube]

Thanks Cajie

Turns out it was parked illegally in the taxi bay along with another Mercedes G Class from Kuwait that was also got towed. [YouTube]

Update: I found out what happened in the video above and it turned out to be just an innocent mistake that was blown out of proportion because the car that was towed was an Aventador. The store is the owner of the car parked the car in an illegal parking spot not knowing it was a spot dedicated to taxis. The sign was written in French and there were other cars parked so he just parked next to the other cars. Turns out the spot he parked in specifically was a taxi spot which is why it got towed.

Hilarious but really catchy. [YouTube]

Thanks Jay

Friday at Salhia from Moayad Hassan

I love that area of Kuwait City even though most of it is falling apart. Lots of life.
