The Test Video

The 2002 music video for "The Test" features actress Holly Weston and is directed by Nick Goffey and Dominic Hawley. In the video Weston plays a girl who experiences an array of unusual situations. This includes swimming into a whale, meeting a female cyclops and watching her own body dissipate in between shots of being inside a dance club. It is implied that the video is a composite of hallucinations of someone in a club after taking LSD.
