How Wings Are Attached To the Backs of Angels
I stumbled across this terrific short film the other day called How Wings Are Attached to the Backs of Angels. It’s an surreal animated film made in 1996 by Craig Welch. This is his third and last film, and even after a google search, it’s a mystery who he is. The film itself is equally mysterious. It’s about a tinkering scientist and a girl who haunts him. There is no dialogue. The sound effects are used to perfection, and Chopin’s Piano Nocturne in B flat Minor (Op. 9) creates a dark and wonderful mood. Watch it here.

There are some seriously mind boggling videos out there, but it takes real net spelunker to discover these hidden gems. Here are just a few of the coolest ones. Ever. My criteria for choosing these videos were 1) it has to be utterly amazing, shocking, funny, etc., and 2) you would never have seen these without YouTube.
