Blutube

If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery the makers of Youtube should be as flat as a pancake. The almost overnight success of this online video vault has created a raft of clones.

Previously, we’ve given column space to Godtube (compiling religious reality vids) but there’s also Rutube (for Russian Residents) and SupportTube not to mention MojoFlix, Selfcast TV, Yahoo Video and Vimeo.

And now... Blutube.

The name might imply necessary parental discretion but unless your kid has an unusual aversion to high speed car chases this shouldn’t be necessary. The blue in the title refers to the colours of uniforms and the videos in question are all police related.

Uploaded by cops themselves,the site features in car camera footage, training videos, dumb robber manouveures and high speed pursuits all filmed from the official side of the thin blue line.

If you’re a fan of bad American cable tv then this is the site for you. Look out for the video of the suspect who before he can even walk the line in a drunk and under the influence test falls flat on his face. Or watch Ali G take a forthright approach to learning law enforcement with the Philadelphia constabulary.
