Did anybody else find seeing Youtube controls at the bottom of a Vimeo video added to the disorientation?

This is interesting, any details on the murder investigation?

Entry to an ARG? Needless to say, there's no trace of such a homicide.

It was convincing enough that I went looking for the BBC news page shown briefly in the video. It was then that I'd realized I'd been had. *hangs head in shame*
