The YouTube round-up: because the week's nearly over

Take ten minutes this lunchtime to rewind on the weirdest and most jaw-dropping moments of sport from the past seven days.

10. Reader, I make no apology for constantly featuring LeBron in these weekly round-ups. None!

Particularly when he continues to produces stuff that I watch over and over online. This self-assist has been labelled ‘the scuba’.

9. Of, course LBJ is not shy in getting some help from his BFF Dwayne Wade.

We featured this sensational full-court, quarter-back-style alley-oop earlier in the week. It’s nuts.

8. Right, how did PSV wunderkind Ibrahim Afellay manage this one? Neal Breslin sent this clip to our own Niall Kelly earlier in the week, and I still haven’t figured it out.

7. He’s playing second fiddle at the moment but Jonny Wilkinson showed just how good he is when he came on against Italy on Saturday with this try-saving tackle. With a 46-point margin, I would’ve side-stepped this one.

6. I’m guessing the Redknapp’s new advert for the Wii was shot and edited before Jamie Redknapp’s “did you smash it” controversy.

5. Last week we showed you the All Black’s latest skills video. It didn’t take long for the Aussies to take the piss.

The Waratahs lads have produced this tongue-in-cheek version.

4. The day before Ireland lost to France in that thrilling but ultimately disappointing showdown at the Aviva Stadium on Sunday, Wales earned a much-needed win at Murrayfield.

In the process, Scotland’s Hugo Southwell was introduced to Lee Byrne’s boot.

3. Uzzy, Uzzy, Uzzy… what are you playing at son? If you enter the ring like this, you better back it up. Let’s see what happens.

2. Wayne Rooney’s (shinned) bicycle kick against Man City on Saturday sparked debate about the best overhead effort ever. Klinsmann and Sinclair were mentioned but for us, Mauro Bressan against Barcelona in 1999 takes some beating.

1. Complete messer Remi Gaillard is back with a Mario Kart video. I realise this isn’t strictly sport.
