Thanks for nice videos.....
but what do you mean by 'Top Ten'
After years of watching videos on YouTube, in my view, these are the top ten videos regarding China in terms of action, visual quality, overall professionalism, and entertainment value.
Think of them as the top ten interesting videos for collegial armchair generals or keyboard warriors like us.
What an Irony.. You tube is blocked in CHINA ..
Ha ha ha. I just noticed that you have "laowai" in your moniker.
Laowai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Laowai (simplified Chinese: 老外; traditional Chinese: 老外; pinyin: lǎowài) is one of several Chinese words for foreigner. Laowai literally translates as "old" (lao 老 "foreigner" (wai 外. It is an informal word that appears in both spoken and written Chinese. While some people consider laowai a casual and neutral word, others view it as a pejorative term."

How To Bypass The Great Firewall of China
...there are still plenty of ways to get around the great firewall. Here are options which should provide you with unfiltered access (continually updated):
* Anonymous proxy (free) many free services provide web-based proxies [1, 2, 3].
* PaperBus (free) surprisingly good free proxy service with easy installation (download here).
* Witopia (paid) VPN service which provides relatively fast service. My review here.
* 12vpn (paid) similar to Witopia with optimized configurations for selected regions. My review here.
* Freedur (paid) plug-n-play proxy service with simple software for all platforms (register here).
* StrongVPN (paid) VPN service with large number of servers worldwide and great support (register here).
* Tor (free) slow but very secure and reliable p2p onion routing network. My guide here.
* Hotspot Shield (free) another VPN service which provides free service but slow.
* Freegate (free) proxy service created by the Global Internet Freedom Consortium (download here).
* UltraSurf (free) encrypted proxy service similar to Freegate (download here).
* SSH tunnel (requires server) for more technical people see this guide here (if you dont have a server try this one).
* Skydur (paid) service is a clone of Freedur by a disgruntled former employee. Avoid.
* Other services (not tested): Alonweb, UltraVPN, blackVPN, ItsHidden.
If youre using an old fashioned proxy server you may find Firefox plugins like FoxyProxy or Gladder useful for switching connections across multiple proxy servers based on URL patterns. For Chinese speakers (and savvy non-speakers) you may find this site very useful.
