You barely see any pipetting in action! This is way better. (Yes, I too am sometimes amazed by my level of nerdiness.)

Our lab recently bought a new thermocycler, and the rep showed these videos before outlining our machine's specs. We made him replay the latter one twice.

It pleases me that this exists in the world. I am trying very hard not to question why it exists. I think that might ruin it.

Hell, I don't even know what it is, and I'm ready to buy it.

Ha! And the epMotion video was shot on Baker Beach and in the Presidio!
I am going to watch all of these and then try to explain to my co-workers why I can stop laughing (and crying).

Through the suggested videos I found this series of music videos by German chemistry students. Some of them are straight covers, some are parodies. Some highlights: Fight for your Chemie (a music video for (You Gotta) Fight for your Right (to Party))
Chemie dass es dich gibt (an ode to their chemistry program and a parody of Merci, dass es dich gibt)
The rest won't make a lot of sense unless you speak German.
Ich will Chemie (a parody of I Will Survive)
OC Vorlesung (I don't recognize the tune; anyway it's about organic chemistry lectures)
Trennungsgang (a song about the woes of learning qualitative analysis; a parody of Summer Wine)

Nanodrop it like it's hot!
(Sadly not a parody, but a guy submits TWO papers to Nature).

This contains exactly none of the creepiness from the "sexy guy sells you menstrual pads" commercials.

I call fake. Those aren't regulation safety glasses - no side shields. Who signed off on this?

God bless you and your promo videos, Eppendorf. (Also, you, unsurprisingly, make by far the best 1.5 ml tubes.)
Biorad still wins.
Well, it's amazing what heating and cooling and heating can do...
PCR! When you need to find out who the daddy is (Who's the daddy?)

This video is still funny, but sadly a double.

They're obviously targeting that massive "tween lab assistant" market.
