Another reason the 80's ruled... the Max Headroom TV Hack

OK, this is creepy and cool at the same time. Back in the late 80's someone hacked 2 television station's signals to broadcast this VERY strangeness.

There are a lot of theories about why and what it's all about. Some say it's just fun, some say it's got messages in it (hacker stuff I guess), and other say he's just drunk. Well, I don;t know but it looks bizarre and has this insidious feel to it. The clip is made all the more better with the TV show being cut into and then abruptly coming back at the end. Of course it's made all the more nerdy since the show it cut in on was Dr. Who.

Enjoy the strangeness.
