Found the video above on the His & Hers blog. [YouTube]

From the cover of the tape, this film “explores the rapid social evolution and economic transformation of Kuwait from a small pearling and trading community in the 1940s, to a country now occupying a pivotal position in world affairs.”

Kuwait a Dream Suspended is a rare documentary film about Kuwait in the 80s. I haven’t had the chance to watch it all yet but from what I saw it looks interesting. [YouTube]

Thanks om3ali

Last night I noticed that they’ve decorated the Gulf Road palm trees with lights which looks pretty cool. [YouTube]

Some pretty creative ideas there. [YouTube]

This video isn’t new but I just saw it for the first time today. The comedian Kathy Griffin came to Kuwait and thought it smelled like crap so she put it in her monologue. Do you find it offensive or funny? [YouTube]

Thanks Cajie

This is the latest GulfRun 6 video and although it’s short it still kicks ass . I’m currently in Lebanon and get back to Kuwait on the 25th and then the following day will head out to Bahrain to catch up with the guys. If you’ve never been to a GulfRun event you should at least once. [YouTube]

On yesterday nights episode of Arabs Got Talent on MBC4, a Kuwaiti opera singer and the Kuwaiti PK Jaguars made it to the next round. I couldn’t find a video of the Kuwaiti opera singer but the video above is of the PK Jaguars. [YouTube]

Update: To watch the Kuwaiti opera singer click [Here]. He kicks ass!

The video above is in Arabic but its about savings in the GCC. Kuwait and Saudi scored the lowest in terms of savings while 93% of the people questioned believed their savings were inadequate for their future needs. [YouTube]

That’s a pretty cool (and big) RC plane. [YouTube]

A reader made the video above of him and his friends racing at the Pro Kart track. [YouTube]

Ibrahim Al-hulail is a Kuwaiti student who’s currently studying in Japan and wanted me to share this video he put together of Japanese people trying to speak Kuwaiti by saying “7ad ouma bard” which basically means it’s very cold. [YouTube]
