As Know Your Meme explained to us a relatively long time ago, one-take video have a special viral appeal and optimum meme compatibility due to their impressive displays of synchronization and the creative endurance that makes a one-take video possible. Appropriately, with the recent success of the Université du Québec à Montréal students’ viral vid, Neatorama seizes the moment to recount The 7 Most Amazing One-Take Videos, our favorite of which is NYU emcee Nyle’s video for “Let the Beat Build.”

That said, we found some missing one-takes, included after the jump.

“Der Lauf der Dinge” (”The Way Things Go”), the film by Peter Fischli and David Weiss, which inspired the Honda “Cog” commercial that Neatorama mentions.

The Nearness Project’s reinterpretation of the chain-reaction model using wireless censors.

And, even though Neatorama mentions the one-take, one-minute Forrest Gump, we prefer the same group’s version of 28 Days Later.
