The first video I watched on YouTube...

Was one that a friend made. He was one of the first mods for the channel. He helped build it to what it became. I cannot find the damned thing, but he did a tune about doing stuff on YouTube and it went viral so much that it was featured on a few news programs that were doing stories about the 'new website'.

The first video that I posted to YouTube was this...



This was a film that was done in Nashville, and I was involved with it. I played a detective. The director made this trailer for it, but this was right before Youtube took off and he never did post it, which I found confusing. So, I took it upon myself to do so. We had a blast making it. I wish more people had seen it.
