Living Large in Cyberspace: Funny video

Funny video

In World of Warcraft, like many MMORPGs there are opportunities to work with many other players on a single goal, or target. Much like the slaying of the proverbial dragon.
Our heroes venture forth, head towards the target and work together, the warriors, the mages, the clerics, etc... To bring her/him down.
Well, the toughest objectives in the game are the "end game bosses". Within the context of the persistent world, they are like "gods" or mythical creatures of enormous power. Such that any even small group of adventurers would not be able to even harm then in the least.
In World of Warcraft (WoW) these targets take 40 person "raids" that have players who can spend months or even the better part of a year to get to the point where they can all do this together.
Once they have been able to complete these goals, to "take down" the target, so to speak, the often make videos of their exploits, replete with theme music etc... Sometimes, like the A Unit video from my last post they can be fairly entertaining even to those that do not play the game.
Often though, they are difficult to understand expect by those already familiar.
Well, this video is of a bunch of very low level characters (level 2 or so in a game that goes to level 60 right now) taking down a level 10 or so "boss" It is really funny how much it looks like the end game stuff.
Very well done, for what it is.

Hogger goes down!
