Best Buzzed Video of Youtube 2007

Here are the most buzzed video on  Youtube in 2007, as selected by the Youtube team.

My absolute favorite is the one with the baby buffalo and the Lions called "Battle at Kruger Park". Personally I would have titled it "You Fuck with Me, You Fuck with my Family". It shows even in the worst of situation there is always hope if you have friends. So cheer on for 2008 !

You can go to the original Youtube blog to see their post: HERE
