From a pilot's hilarious message in the sky to an amazing camera that shows you what bugs see, we've seen some great videos this week. Here are some of our favourites:

1. Skywriting pilot asks: 'How do I land?'

Imagine looking up to see a pilot spelling out "How Do I Land?" with clouds in the sky. That's precisely what Los Angeles sky-gazers saw the other day. American comedian Kurt Braunohler raised nearly $7,000 through Kickstarter to turn the city's sky into a message board. The message may have only lasted briefly due to strong winds, but we say it was worth every cloud!

2. KFC smugglers deliver fast food the hard way

Fried chicken-lovers in Gaza are ready to shell out $30 for illegal KFC meals. The crispy treats, purchased in Egypt, probably get cold by the time they are smuggled in through the tunnels, but that doesn't seem to deter Gaza residents. Could fried chicken be the real key to the much-needed peace in that land?

Canadian employers, those pitiful-sounding coughs you've been hearing over the phone before the long weekend — as staff members say they're feeling just a little under the weather and they can't make it into work — might be as fake as they sound.

More than half of Canadians, 54 per cent, have called into work sick when the only bug ailing them was the prospect of a long day at the office, according to a survey conducted by Angus Reid on behalf of the workforce management company Kronos.

The survey, entitled "Sick or Tired?" found that most of those who feigned illness said they felt stressed. According to the survey, the provinces where the highest number of respondents admitted to faking were Manitoba and Ontario. Those were also the provinces where the vast majority, 83 per cent and 78 per cent, respectively, said they've lied because of burn out and stress.

An eBay seller claiming possession of a document dated to World War II that could show the top-secret recipe for Coca-Cola has found himself a buyer.

Unfortunately for him, the person who clicked the "Buy It Now" is a 15-year-old who doesn't likely have the $15 million asking price to spend, Agence France-Presse reports. The seller, Cliff Kluge, told the news wire yesterday the kid had three days to pay up before the recipe would return to the market.

Kluge says on the eBay posting that he bought the document at the estate sale of a renowned chemist from Chattanooga, Tennessee, where Coca-Cola opened its first bottling factory in 1899.

In the listing, he argues that spending $15 million on the document will more than pay itself off if the recipe does, in fact, yield the secret to reproducing Coca-Cola.

One wonders why he doesn't try it.

Dinner is served.

At least, dinner could be served for about 200 people with the meat of an enormous cod caught off the coast of Norway last month, according to the Telegraph.

However, the fisherman who caught it says he'll donate the fish to a museum, according to the Daily Mail.

Michael Eisele told the tabloid he was visiting Norway from Germany on a fishing trip, sitting in the boat with friends, when he felt the bite on his line that will earn him a world record if it's confirmed.

He said he spent a half hour trying to reel in the giant cod, which weighed 103 pounds.

The current listed weight record for an Atlantic cod is 98 pounds, according to the International Game Fish Association. An angler named Alphonse Bielevich caught the cod off the Isle of Shoals in New Hampshire.

Factors including overfishing have reduced cod populations, according to the World Wildlife Federation.

Canada has had a moratorium against cod

"Second star to the right and straight on 'til morning."

An Ontario man may have been channeling Captain Kirk and Peter Pan when he staged the launch of a model spacecraft last month using a weather balloon.

Trekkie Steve Schnier posted a video to YouTube showing a model of the U.S.S. Enterprise he built and launched on an interplanetary mission in search of extra-terrestrial civilizations. Or at least, in the hopes of reaching the nearby town of Innisfil.

Operation Ultimate Cool launched from Stayner, Ont., on April 28, according to the video.

The ship didn't quite make it to Planet Nibiru and it didn't reach the otherworldly civilization of Toronto, either, when it crash landed near an island in Georgian Bay, according to Canada A.M.

Still, the footage shows the small spacecraft ascending way up into the sky and cruising with a spectacular view of the Earth from above.

Gravity is tricky.

It's certainly been giving astronaut Chris Hadfield a pain in the neck this week as he readjusts to Earth after five months in space. He said at a news conference on Thursday that his body feels like he played "a hard game of rugby."

In his disoriented state, Hadfield appears to have forgotten that instructional videos aren't very useful on Earth. Either that, or a fake-moustachioed imposter has been uploading parodies of the astronaut.

In the videos, Hadfield struggles to create more of the videos that enraptured the public while he was in space, except from his home in Canada.

Spoiler: Earth is boring.

So far, Sean Ireland and a group of others credited in the video descriptions have parodied two of Hadfield's short videos, about clipping nails and wringing out a washcloth in space.

In the first video, the actor posing as Hadfield gives straight-faced instructions about how to wring out a washcloth, casually pointing out that

When a deer leaped in front of a Pennsylvania city bus this week, the driver probably didn't even have time to say "Oh dear" before the animal had crashed through the windshield.

Surveillance footage has captured the dramatic moment when a deer burst through the front of the bus and began to thrash around the interior, injured and disoriented.

Once the driver pulls over and opens the door, the deer leaps out of the bus, apparently healthy enough to dash away.

Meanwhile, a deer in Toronto has apparently learned to read maps. After a car struck the animal on Wednesday, the animal ran into the city's Deer Park neighbourhood, according to the Toronto Star.

It's unclear how badly the deer is injured.

Despite its name, the historical Deer Park area isn't an ideal refuge for the animal and authorities told the Star they hoped it would wander back into a park that lies nearby.

An American comedian has demonstrated the strange power of crowd-sourcing campaigns by raising nearly $7,000 to write silly jokes in the sky over Los Angeles and then turning the city's airspace into a comedic canvas.

Kurt Braunohler launched a Kickstarter campaign in January on the grounds that the world needs a little more crazy. A total of 183 people agreed with him enough to back the project, which proposed to hire a pilot who would spell out jokes in the sky, for no other reason than the momentary amusement of unsuspecting strangers.

"How great would it be to look up one day and there’s a message in the sky, for no other reason other than itself. It’s not trying to sell you anything, it’s not trying to tell you something. It’s just there," the campaign webpage says.

Great enough for a chuckle, I suspect, for those who looked up and spotted the words "How Do I Land?" floating above their heads.
