Morning all, at work I moved into a new team (software development) and they like to start the day with a funny video. The word is out that I'm a woodworker and when I was chosen to come up with the next video, I joked that I didn't know of any funny woodworking videos.
So, there's the challenge to the Creek - Can anyone provide a link to a woodworking related video that non-woodworkers would find funny? I couldn't find much myself with google.
Thanks for you help!

I like it ,Steve, the guy strikes just the right TV tone. The reverse run was a big part of home movies. You stood no chance of getting your friends to watch you shovel snow....but they loved seeing you quickly ...and perfectly, put down a new layer.

Depending on what you would call "funny", you can look to Izzy Swan's youtube channel. He has some weird and wonderful inventions in wood.

Check out the Lee Valley April 1 tools...
Edit: Eh, after looking at them, they are too close to being realistic. I guess even seasoned woodworkers have been taken in...

William Ng has an interesting short clip "The proper way to chuck a drill bit"

This one is a little understated https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cx12QHA9pIM and this one is not exactly PC but if you have women in your team https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ENqg-jX-6s

This one isn't a woodworking video and it's not all that funny but they will like it. Google "Caterpillar Jenga". Who doesn't like really big machines playing a children's game?

Not exactly woodworking but "artisanal firewood" is pretty funny.

Thanks for all the suggestions! Looks like some fun videos to watch over lunch. I'm headed over to Woodwerks this morning to part with my annual donation to their Winter sale. (I'm thinking there's a track saw over there that might have a new home today. )

Check out any of the Reg Prescott videos on youtube.
Make some of your people think twice about power tools, electricity and gardening.

Brian, I think this is one that everyone at your office will "get".
