If you want to keep watching movies longer than 2 minutes, please donate through the below link. You can donate ANY amount of money you want! (There is a 1 dollar minimum though, due to the administration costs). Want to donate more? Please do!

We like to emphasize: We do NOT want to make money off your backs, but we have no other option. We are not greedy people searching for easy bucks, we are only trying to keep the Tube in the air. Running Shockingtube costs 10.000 dollar EACH MONTH on bandwidth alone.. Add the moderating, designing, support.. You'll get the point.

We are currently working on another credit-system, which will benefit the dedicated Tube-user.
As soon as we have more information on that, we will be in touch!

We hope for your understanding, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

Enjoy the Tube!!

The Shockingtube Team.

PS:
After donating, we have to manually add you to our system. Please keep in mind that this could take up to 24 hours. That may be longer if we can't link the donation to a tube account.
Consider donating!
Yes, i will donate No thanks...
