He's right there towards the end, getting knocked over by some people :

Actually, if someone could mess around with this video to make the flags and pseudo-nazi symbol look like the windows-logo the video would make a perfect anti-windows video. Hehe...

For those who are wondering it's not a RickRoll (just Google it like I did)

Ok, I'm getting curious now. If I were to, say, edit this music-video so those pseudo-nazi symbols appear as the Windows-logo, which program should I 'aquire' in order to accomplish that? Is there an Open Source program for that or should I find some Adobe-whatever to do it? The HD-version I have is in wmv-format :(

Initial ideas :

- Substitute the black symbol with Windows-logo.
- The 'S' on the piece of cloth that gets blown onto the chest of the hero should be replaced with an image of Tux.
- The short passage with the middle-eastern suicide-bomber should have some Apple-logos on them :D , for zealotry of course.

don't be pirating software like that. especially for something as trivial as this. doesn't make the community look good.

So no open source alternatives for this?

In regards to the Adobe-programs, then my university has the whole CS3-suite installed, so I can simply do it up there if that's what it takes, I wouldn't know which program in the suite would fit the task best though.

You would go through the trouble of googling something to avoid a Rick Roll wouldn't be easier to just click the link and hope for the best

haha

That's what I'm thinking. The fear of being Rick Rolled is so ridiculous. Maybe psychologists should come up with a phobia name for it.
