l2204355 I'm feeling lucky Google

Is it just a random meme that means nothing, thereby making it awesome? Or is there some meaning that will only be revealed once the video is everywhere? Or is it meant to confuse everyone into thinking it's something significant when it's actually not, thereby making everyone feel stupid? We just don't know!

If you visit Google, type in 2204355 and hit the I'm Feeling Lucky button you'll be presented with the odd video that is taking web users by storm.

It is impossible to fathom the ways and means of Google – they occupy a far higher plane than the rest of us. And once again, they’ve baffled the entire web-community with this . Yes, having typed the equally mysterious ‘2204355′ into Google and hitting ‘Are You Feeling Lucky?’, you’re greeted with this.

In the confounding video, a smiling young man is double fisting two chicken drumsticks in front of an animated rainbow-coloured background. He dances to a song that sounds like it would soundtrack an old Nintendo video game and occasionally takes bites of chicken.

The video features the man dancing to what sounds like video-game version of the theme from TV show ‘Alf’ while nibbling the chicken in front of a scrolling rainbow background.

Computer programming expert Jim Peel, from Manchester, said he was not sure if there was a message behind the viral or not.

He said: I don't think there is a hidden message, but i'm sure someone will find one.

'If this is aliens trying to control us, I like their sense of humour, we'd get along swimmingly. Chances are it is more likely to be KFC trying to control us, though.

'It's not a viral per-se, but the way in which it is distributed certainly is.

'Every now and again these pop up, inexplicably, and usually entirely by accident. The accidental ones are usually the funniest.

'These virals are fun, exciting, amateur, meaningless, harmless, often accidental.

'Importantly they're anonymous. They are also unpoliced, they can make you famous, and the outcome and return can be massive.

'In the olden days, these spread relatively slowly through email and word of mouth, but with the popularity of Twitter, Facebook and blogs, the distribution can be instantaneous and widespread.'

Web sleuths have discovered the video of the dancing man appears to have been snipped from a bizarre Kentucky Fried Chicken commercial. As for who created the video and what it's supposed to mean — if anything at all — no one has a clue.

According to Google, the viral trend has been particularly popular in the Philippines, New Zealand, Ireland, Singapore, Australia, Canada, the U.S., and the U.K.
