More than just OK

I love music. I love machines. I love silliness. And I love stuff that just makes me smile. Now put all four of these together in one place and I have an excuse to love life a little bit more. The band OK Go put together a video to go along with their song "This Too Shall Pass". The video has the band singing the song while a giant Rube Goldberg Machine does, well, it's thing. Kicker here is, they timed the various machine events to sync perfectly with the song. Amazing stuff, and loads of fun to watch.

This was shot in one continuous take using a Steadicam and following the action. Of course, it took a few tries to get right, but when it works, it's practically captivating.

This video is close to unseating the Honda "Cog" ad as my favorite Rube Goldberg machine video.
