I don't know whether this has been posted before; frankly, I haven't checked this thread much 'cos I'm not mad keen on clicking undescribed links, whether I might be sharing a room with a boss or a daughter. But that's by the by. My mate sent me this and I literally wept with laughter.

It's the closing stages of the Iron Man triathlon: that'll be a 24-mile swim in the Pacific and a 112-mile bike ride across the desert before embarking upon your common-or-garden marathon. The fastest anybody's ever done this one is eight hours, which I'd call a working day, not a leisure pursuit, but there you go. We join the race as two female competitors approach the last bend of the marathon, coaxing every last ounce of energy (is energy measured in weight? Anyway...) from their ravaged bodies. What follows is a testament to human endurance, competition and ingenuity... and is laugh-out-loud funny. IMO. (Gets better as it goes along too, bear with it for the first 90 seconds. And you don't need sound)

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

I felt tight for laughing, but boy, I'm still laughing now it's finished.

Here's another one you shouldn't really laugh at... a really rather amusing boxing KO...

Hilarious. Especially that absolutely brilliant punch line! When you discover the placings. God that is a mad 'sport'.

Coincidentally it is the Ironman world championships tomorrow. In Hawaii.

Hopefully the British lass can retain her title.

1:30 onwards, friend. My favourite bit's the dramatic camera pan at 1:42.

Think the really funny bit for me is the relatively fresh people who run past 'em while they're crawling along. Reminded me a bit of that Harry Enfield sketch with the two jockeys...

It should be made compulsory furniture for all MP's on Question Time! (Maybe David Dimbleby can have the button for a particularly pompous speech!)

The three funniest sights in the world:

1) People inadvertently walking into glass doors.
2) Fat people running for buses.
3) Serious dscussions on TV being crudely interrupted by someone suddenly falling off a chair behind a desk.

Just looking at some old clips of the mighty whites on youtube when I came across this.
Narr then, what I need to know is - does anyone know what the tune is and who it's by? Sounds like a 'must have' to me.
