This hilarious video satire is surprisingly well-done. It shows highlights of Germany's loss to Serbia in the World Cup 2010, recreated in Lego. (I am pleased to report that Frankfurt has remained pleasantly quiet all night long as a result of this loss, haha!)

Sadly, slavery is not dead after all. This video shows a scene from the documentary "Soccer's Lost Boys."
