We asked via our email newsletter if any Same Same readers were famous on YouTube, and found an eclectic mix of extraordinary talent… and a few folks with way too much free time.

We laughed, and cried, and cringed, and whittled down our eight bandwidth-worthy favourites from the dozens of YouTube links we received from around Australia. Enjoy!

Flash Mob on Bondi Beach
By popular demand, here’s our favourite camp Aussie YouTube clip of last year. Sydney drag diva Joyce Maynge led over 100 beachgoers in a Bondi flash mob dance-off. Here’s the fantabulous result:

Well done everyone!
