The YouTube top 10: guess who made an unlikely 70m sprint try...

Don’t watch this until Sunday if you gave up funny and amusing sports-based YouTube clips for Lent.

10. Is this the quickest goal ever? What are those lines on the pitch? How embarrassed is the keeper?

So many questions; here’s the answer:

9. Every dunk in Blake Griffin’s spectacular rookie season. I reckon I could do that with a little practice and maybe a few hours in the gym.

8. Sebastian Chabal – what an absolute oaf. But he scored a 70m sprint try last weekend in France.

7. This is amazing. Swiss mountain climber Ueli Steck breaks his own speed solo record from previous year by over an hour scaling the Eiger’s Heckmair route.

The real hero is the guy with the camera though surely. Just sayin’.

6. The Air Canada Centre in Toronto is transformed overnight from an ince ring to an NBA court in a wonderful time-lapse video.

5. Basketball star Steve Nash is ‘treated’ to a very public lap dance by colourful pop headcase Nicki Minaj. I’m a fan of both their work.

Watch as Nash goes from surprised to spoof-cool to horrified.

4. Manny, Manny, Manny!

Pac-Man is preparing to release a CD, Sometimes When We Touch. You can watch trailer here and listen to his signing. It’s not pretty.

The record deal came out of this performance on Jimmy Kimmel. Seriously.

3. The Guardian’s Barney Ronay visits the set of United, BBC film telling the true story of Manchester United and the 1958 Munich air disaster in which 23 people died.

David Tennant plays Jimmy Murphy to Dougray Scott’s Matt Busby. One of the footmen from Downton Abbey and the lad from Skins looks to be palying parts of the Babes too.

2. Is this the greatest goal ever scored on a Gaelic football pitch? Take a bow young Michael Mullan of St Patrick’s Maghera.
