For your viewing pleasure…
Tramdalf.
This was shot and edited by Miklos Janek, the genius who directed Curiageous (and wrote it with me). It all went down last week on Bourke Street mall, and if you’re somehow unclear as to why we did it, I lost No Fuck Friday. NFF is a weekly feature wherein Luke and I “duel” with revolting videos. Everyone votes on which would be the hardest to get it on to, and typically the loser has to undergo some manner of humiliating ordeal; in this case, dress up as Gandalf and face off with a tram. Hence, Tramdalf. Makes sense. We’re pretty proud of it! Let us know what you think (read: lather us up with sweet, sweet kudos).
Oh yes, and while we’re here…
1. This is us being “officially” “back” – expect more posts, more content, more NFF.
2. It’s still not too late to vote in last week’s edition of NFF. You have until Wednesday evening, so get to it!

So… what happened to only moving when removed?
Seems like Tramdalf got scared by the advancing Tramrog in a classic game of chicken.

Tramdalf did get scared. But that seemed like a freaking eternity out there.

Great work guys, also – make all NFF videos this long, that was epic.
Worth the wait!

BRILLIANT.
Although, I was hoping an actual chicken would be involved.
6 Greg Lexiphanic // Sep 14, 2009 at 9:42 am
Epic.
I was nothing short of impressed.
Definitely need more of this.

BWAH! Hilarious! I loove it!
Now, what could we get Luke dressed up as in a future loss?
Frodo? And he has to toss a giant Cheezle into a volcano?

Tramdalf is now my hero. I shall call out to him in my darkest tram-related hour.

Finally, Something that combines lord of the Rings, public transport and public nuisance.
They said this day would never come!
Delightful!

Funny though, good job
16 Amy // Sep 14, 2009 at 2:50 pm

17 beckoning_ // Sep 14, 2009 at 3:13 pm
Tramdalf the grey? More like Tramdalf the yellow.
Although that bit when you were staring into the eyes off that bell ringing demon…epic!
So itchy.

“YOU SHALL NOT PASS!”
*ding*
No… no words. No words to describe it. Poetry! They should’ve sent a poet. So beautiful. So beautiful…
22 TC // Sep 14, 2009 at 9:13 pm
Pretty sure the bet was you couldn’t move till the driver got out of the tram..
FAIL!!
23 dave // Sep 14, 2009 at 9:52 pm
Nice work
For the next next nff maybe something like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vw3bPUOE47s ?
24 Cassie // Sep 14, 2009 at 10:36 pm
Awesomeness! Been waiting for a long time to see Tramdalf in action…though I have to say, the Fellowship of the Ring would be kinda screwed if he was trying to defend them…surrying off like that.
25 Jill // Sep 16, 2009 at 12:22 pm
Gold. Absolute Gold.
Not to mention balls of steel. Hmm… metallic theme here.
Well done boys!!

Never rely on Tramdalf the grey,
Legend has it he runs away
If you’re immobile and needing a tram
Old itchy Tramdalf is doing a scram
Should you be requiring a tram to ride
Tramdalf won’t stop it, he’ll just run and hide!
There’s ya poetry!
Very, very good stuff! Watched it at work and the giggles drew crowds who stood and watched too. Nice one!
27 Hel // Sep 25, 2009 at 2:44 pm
So very worth the wait.
That was tops.
28 Destructor // Oct 1, 2009 at 10:47 pm
