Pretty cool video stunt where various people threw vinyl records on a record player. It took them 18 hours and more than 400 records--thankfully, they only used worthless records in this stunt. What do you think of this? Cool or just odd? http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=JIoQyOHqgAw
