I think it's pretty common for videos to change the thumbnail if they determine that the original is not performing well. I do recall when Pat posted that the Antz characters were there for sure.
And that boy is Hog Hug, or Hogarth Hughes, the boy from Iron Giant. The dog is supposed to be Balto I assume but his colours are really off to the point that I'm not 100%.

Youtube creators will sometimes swap out thumbnails after a/b testing. First time I saw this, there was an Antz image.

Really awesome video of clouds that were somehow shining with a rainbow of colors. If I thought the video was going to get taken down, I'd have made note of what they were called.
EDIT: Apparently deleted because the account that tweeted it wanted to get confirmation it was real, and a scientific explanation for it, before leaving it up on their twitter.

EDIT2: Alternative video of the clouds

My favorite is the images of the bridge... at the bridge

"...How about we all go inside now."
You should take the unison "Something's on fiiire!" and turn it into a text tone for whenever work texts you.

Brian Brushwood attempts to eat fire while upside down
Using electrostatic charge to adhere tiny needles onto an artificial tree.
My wife used to work in flocking, doing this exact thing to the insides of Cadillac glove compartments. She says one of the biggest challenges would be when something happened with the machine that applied the static charge to the piece being flocked, because then it would occasionally LIGHTNING BOLT whomever happened to be standing near it.

As someone that was once banned from my college physics lab over an incident involving many overcharged van de graaff static generators... being lightning bolted isn't as bad as it sounds. But it does hurt.
