Youtube

If you want to give yourself an inferiority complex, youtube is the place to go.
Whether it’s sport, music or even politics you can easily find people who are much better at what you do than you ever will be.
Drum freak
If you think you’re getting good at drumming, then watching death metal/jazz drummer extraordinaire Derek Roddy flail his sticks around too quickly for the naked eye to follow can leave you a bit disillusioned.
Go ahead, wannabe drum gods; watch him, if you don’t mind a bruised ego.
White men can’t jump (or fight)
For those who think they are pretty good at basketball, looking up any Michael Jordan mix on youtube will be a harsh reality check our this video clip.
And anyone wishing to bring WWE Wrestling to the New Zealand Parliament will be disappointed to find, thanks to youtube, that the Taiwanese are much better at Parliament fights than we’ll ever be (video below).
But despite its ability to shrink our egos greatly, youtube allows people with extraordinary talents to be seen, even if only by a small number of people.
And if you ever end up being an MP in Taiwan, you might show up on youtube yourself some day!
