3PM Extra: The best things we've found on the internet today

Gary Neville's 'Bond villain' underground house has got us thinking. If Gary really were an adversary of 007, what would he be called? Dr No-mates, perhaps? Or Redfinger?

Anyway, even while plotting the nuclear eradication of Merseyside from his subterranean earth shelter, Gary will need some entertainment. So we humbly suggest that when his fellow agents of SPECTRE come round for tea, he shows them our daily 3PM Extra blog of the day's best football videos and other stuff we found on the internet. Here's your selection for today...

2) A few questions about this new Nike advert. Why is Fernando Torres dressed like the albino monk from the Da Vinci Code?

Now check out two truly great Nike football ads. First, Terry Gilliam's 'Secret Tournament' from 2002...

...And second, an extended cut of Guy Ritchie's surprisingly brilliant 'Take It To The Next Level' from last year, with added WAGging and vomiting!

3) Congratulations to keepy-up champ Dan Magness, who broke a world record yesterday by juggling a ball for 36miles. Here he setting out on his quest...

...And here's a sensational Magness performance from 2008.
