Anyways, here's ANOTHER list (lucky you!) of the 14 Forgotten Videos that we either purposely left off (or completely forgot to add, our bad), brought to you by the marvelous commenters on Urlesque, Digg, Reddit, BuzzFeed, I Am Bored and all of the other amazing sites that posted a link to our list. Thank you guys and this milkshake's for you!
- The brilliantly funny Flea Market Montgomery commercial -- which made it all the way to The Ellen Degeneres Show.
- One of the first lip dubs to circulate the web: Milk and Cereal.
- Perhaps we left this one off because we're scared of Anonymous? Would you blame us? Either way, their Message to Scientology was certainly iconic. For more information see Wikipedia.
- "Cooking by the Book" by Lazy Town with a pinch of Lil' Jon creates the perfect mash-up! (Language NSFW)
- With almost 13 million views, once "Tunak Tunak Tun" gets in your head, it doesn't leave.
- You guys have no idea how hard I rallied to get this one on the list, but alas, it didn't make it. Either way, Mr. Chi-City: WE LOVE YOU. (We also love Snapple!) (Language NSFW)
- We didn't forget "Yatta" either -- and it was actually on the list until the bitter end.
- While I see the allure of Tourettes Guy, the 8 million views on this one astounds me. (Language NSFW)
- Although we did feature the Inmate Thriller Dance, Indian Thriller could arguably be more iconic. It's all about preference. Either way, all Thriller Dances on the web are iconic in my opinion!
- Ahh, the Dancing Baby. We argued over this baby for a while here at the Urlesque HQ. Some said the baby was a GIF and shouldn't be included on the list, while others categorized it as a video. We're still undecided, even though we left it off, what do you think?
- The ultimate fan favorite, many commenters argued that Boxxy should've been at the top of our list. It's relatively new, so we left it off -- but that doesn't diminish our love for the eyeliner'd spastic vlogger.
- It was admittedly a huge oversight to leave off the 22.5 million hit, "My New Haircut," but we'll just blame the JÄGERBOMBS. (Language NSFW)
- Kelly did fight for Nora the piano-playing cat, but she was overruled -- so we'll (the rest of the Urlbots) take full responsibility for this oversight. Blame us, not Kelly. (Ed. note: Thank you.)
- Our number one oversight, one that we take COMPLETE responsibility for (and one that many commenters rightfully reamed us for missing), is the epic Battle at Kruger. Our argument is that it's from a documentary, but your argument is that it's AWESOME -- so you win.

I've never seen 'Battle at Kruger' before. That was amazing. Thanks for adding 'Indian Thriller' also.
I can't get enough of that video.
There's something about 'Boxxy' that really makes me want to hurt someone or go shoot up or something.. I don't know but I'm sure I will never have children on the off chance they might end up being 4 years old forever.

Boxxy seems to be partly a made up character. Its hard to say how much is really her and how much is acting. The wikipedia entry on her is interesting.

Actually, I saw the people who filmed this on the Today show (I think ... one of those morning shows) when it came out. Apparently they just happened to film this and posted on youtube for family members. Said they had no idea it would go viral... SO ... i guess not a documentary ...

still missing the sparta-techno remixes
there are over 3 million of those videos on the internet, just like the numa numa videos feat. gary brolger. just search for it on youtube and you'll see what I mean.
It's impossible to find any specific one if you don't know the user that created it. see if you can find one of the ones with lots of different scenes- there's one or two that have 30 different scenes with sparticus's head pasted on them.

I'm still not satisfied. With one hundred fourteen videos now on the list, it seems that there should be a place for "Star Wars according to a three year-old" "the Kitty Cat Dance," and that newscaster who had a small lizard jump on him.

Another one that could have made the list is "The engineer's guide to cats" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHXBL6bzAR4 Even if you don't like cats, you will find this one amusing. It's been on several

@Lauren, Lu Ann: This list is a follow up to our 100 Iconic Web Videos -- and we created both before Susan Boyle and the JK Wedding Dance ever existed! But they would totally be on an updated one... Check out the 2009 Urlies for videos that would definitely be on an updated list: http://www.urlesque.com/2009/11/17/best-of-the-web-2009-urlies/
