If there was a Webby Award for all of the Hitler meme videos out there, this one would hands-down win. It brings together all the elements in an inspiring takeoff of the iPhone 4G takedown.

What’s with the Hitler meme?
“The Hitler Meme” or “Hitler finds out” is a video meme involving the addition of new subititles to the dramatic scene of Hitler’s final meltdown from the German movie Downfall directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel. The subtitles are often anachronistically altered with humerous English subtitles surrounding current events.

Since we found a blogger who still has the video up — watch it quickly one more time before it’s just a memory, like Gray Powell’s life before that ill-fated German beer bash.
The Webby acceptance speeches are traditionally only five words. After watching this video I think we all agree:
Gray loses iPhone. We win.
