Radio control airplane's and viral videos combine.

If you're into Radio Control forums such as RCGroups, RC Universe or FlyingGiants, notably in the RC airplane category's, you would have or should of seen a video about a full scale aerobatic airplane flying, when all of a sudden a wing breaks off and the pilot lands it safely.
This video caused the forums to go wild and then pretty much the online world followed. It eventually came out that it was a hoax, which is pretty obvious if you fly airplane's.

But the guy who owns RCGroups and develops RC flight simulators actually pulled it off for real. With a RC airplane of course. It proves though it could be done but I wouldn't want to be the test pilot.

This RC video turned viral and has know attracted big name media. Like Discovery Channel, that wants him to test his fully sick skills again.
