Post interesting documentaries that can be watched online. Any subject just as long as its interesting to you the more random the better.

Guy on the UK version of Who Wants to be a Millionaire won it all by using coughing patterns from a fellow contestant.

America's Most Hated Family in Crisis. Follow up on the Westboro Baptist Church ("god hates fags family" and funeral picketers) after several members have left. These people will drive you crazy.

any documentary by adam curtis is flooded with information but you never feel overwhelmed. as with any sociological or political documentary, watch it and take it with a grain of salt. never the less, his montages are highly engaging and fascinating.

Old vid that I'm pretty sure I've seen on sufu before, but wanted it in here. Still gives me the chills watching. Even if heights don't bother you this will get you. Feel so relieved when he clips in at the end

Really good doc that was on BBC Four about the history of design. It's much more comprehensive than Objectified, and features everything from Le Corbusier to Dieter Rams.

I've posted the first part of each episode:

Episode 1 - Ghosts in the Machine

This is a really good doc on modern day Savile Row tailors. It features various houses such as Norton & Sons and Dege & Skinner and the politics surrounding the arrival of Abercrombie and Fitch to the street.

Another tailoring doc, this time on Ozwald Boateng and his ideas on style and his slightly off-key approach to tailoring. It's not as interesting as the above Savile Row doc, but the ending with Giorgio Armani is quite touching and the Burial soundtrack is pretty cool.
