They’re called One Soul Crew and they’re heading out to Lebanon soon to star on the TV show Arabs Got Talent. [YouTube]

The Great Flood of 97
I just saw this video on iLSuL6ana’s blog of the flood that happened in Kuwait back in 1997. Whenever I tell new comers about it they keep thinking I’m exaggerating. It really was that bad. [YouTube]
Zahed Sultan just released his 3rd music video called “Walkin Away” from his “Hi Fear, Lo Love” album. You can watch it above or on [YouTube]
I wasn’t planning on shooting a video, it just came to me while playing on the track so I didn’t have a tripod or a second hand to help me out. It’s not a great video but it still should give you a rough idea of what it’s like to race an RC car around the track. For some odd reason my edit turned out to be just 35 seconds so I repeated the lap twice in the video (it actually takes over a minute to race around the track without mistakes). If this track doesn’t convince you to get a race buggy then I’m not sure what would.
A reader sent me the video above because he knows how much I love these action scenes. This one is ridiculously good! [YouTube]
Thanks Ali
Bird Talk Trailer
Bianca the owner of Early Bird is starting a new YouTube show called Bird Talk in which she will be video blogging about things to do in Kuwait other than the usual ones. I’m not a fan of video blogs but the trailer above looks pretty damn good and if her shows are going to look like that then I’m definitely going to watch them. [YouTube]

Update: Found the video below in their channel and I think it’s their first episode.

Spotted this video on the LWDLIK blog. It’s a presentation on the new railway system that is going to be built in Kuwait. I’ve posted about this topic a number of times before but this video offers a new glimpse on how the system will work and be implemented. They even have a few 3D renderings over real world shots showing how it’s going to look which is a design similar to the Dubai Metro but with a potential to be better since they’re planning to cover the whole country.

Spotted the video above on the His&Hers blog. Fights at the Avenues isn’t anything new but watching the video above you kinda wonder where is security? With the amount of fights that take place there I would have cops stationed all around on weekends. [YouTube]
This is security footage of a fight that took place at Al Adan Hospital earlier in the month. I can’t believe the guy even punches the old woman, it’s completely messed up. Here is a link to even better quality footage than the one above [Link]
Thanks Hashem
Update: Before people start posting hate comments about Kuwait, here is a bigger fight that took place at a hospital in the States. This isn’t a Kuwait only thing.

Looks like the main building entrance was completely engulfed in flames. Hopefully everyone got out safely. [YouTube]
Just over a year ago I got an email from Dhari Al-Gharabally from the Kuwait Oil Company telling me about a problem they had with stray dogs in Ahmadi and how they wanted to deal with this issue in a humane manner without causing any harm to the dogs. I put him in touch with K’s PATH and since then they’ve been working together solving the stray dogs issue.
Earlier today KOC released a video detailing their relationship with K’s PATH and how they collaborated together on this problem that faced the residents of Ahmadi. All I can say is that I wish there were more companies in Kuwait like KOC and that I’m also really glad we have an organization like K’s PATH to take care of animals in Kuwait.
The video is in Arabic but at around 2:50 into the video John Peaveler the co-founder of K’s PATH comes in and talks in English. [YouTube]
Kuwait in The Facts of Life
This is a short clip from a really old show from the late 70s staring George Clooney. Whats interesting here is that in the clip George Clooney’s character gets a Kuwait Times newspaper delivered to him and he talks about his experience living in Kuwait. Just press play above and it should start at the right moment. [YouTube]
Thanks Hish
Update: The episode above is from 1985
Suits
I’ve got a bunch of shows I’m currently enjoying but my favorite has to be Suits. If you read the description it won’t sound exciting but it’s really a great show about two lawyers but it’s nothing like regular lawyer shows. Check out the trailer below.
[YouTube]
Not sure if it’s being aired on Showtime but it’s available in the iTunes Store and on Hulu.
The bull went swimming
Turns out the bull/cow (we’re still undecided) I posted about the other day who was roaming the Gulf Road ended up going for a swim. [YouTube]
