Disturbing Friday Fun, then: a weekly 'feature' in which we provide you with a link to a baffling, unsettling, odd or – as the title says – downright disturbing thing we've found on the interweb.
Look – we never said originality was in our remit. Okay?
Anyway. Settle down. This week we've got a treat for you. If felt that the sensitive, thought-provoking depiction of 9/11 in last year's United 93 would have worked better had the victims been wearing berets, gloves and comical facepaint, then – boy oh boy – this is the You Tube clip for you.
A social commentary on September 11th? Via the medium of mime? Phew – we wouldn't want to be a terrorist today!
That's right. Forget the old 'trapped in a box' routine, kids. What the artform really needs is a Chaplinesque re-enactment of the WTC collapse. With a soundtrack by Enya.
For once we are genuinely speechless.

What. The. Fuck. Is. That. ?.

I can’t believe I just watched that whole thing. I’m going to put my head in the oven for awhile now.
