A lot of time on their hands, no doubt.
And stoned. Watch any actual war battle footage while listening to any music you consider intense.
Synchronicity is natural and everywhere.

My friends and I used to get stoned and watch Family Guy muted with reggae playing. Every time we did this, some pretty impressive synchronicity was observed.
Chalk it up to being stoned if you must, but I'd agree with that statement.

Yeah I have the Dark side of the Rainbow. It's the pre synched version, I got it off Limewire.
Funny this should come up, I watched it like 3 days ago just for the hell of it.
When you watch it stoned you see more coincidences, some of them probably aren't actually there but it's still cool .
Whenever the Floyd talk about it they say it's strange but claim there was no intention. They point out there was no way to play the movie in the studio....so cosmic 
There's a few different things you can do at the end of the album according to wikipedia. You can just stop, start the album again or aparrently you can play Animals or The Division Bell. They all have synchronicities.

Both very true. I just watched through this DSotM/WoO match that I've been meaning to do for about a decade now (thanks Youtube!). And all I can say is, well.
Well, it is certainly interesting. It is certainly entertaining. Fun, even.
Intentional, I doubt it.
Does it embody an overarching synchronicity of the ages? Well, maybe, but I doubt it was intended by Pink Floyd consciously. If some other being/presence caused it to happen, that could well be.
Basically, I agree with the poster who said this happens a lot with certain types of music and what is being viewed (and probably the viewer as well). You start to notice similarities you would have otherwise missed.
I think this is all silly (and great) because once I had an mp3 CD I had burned (back before all this was so popular) with a couple songs on it. As we went to partake of some sacraments, a movie that was about to being was muted. We then noticed how the first two songs matched up to the movie first in a forelorning manner (first song) and then in a comical manner (second song). Obviously, none of this was intended, but it just happened.
Everyone else said, "yeah, well, what do you expect when you are under the influence", except, I don't normally experience drastic synchronicities. It has only ever happened that once to such drastic an effect.
So I imagine this mashup is highly coincidental, a great discovery, and entirely circumstantial to boot.

Yeah I tend to notice synchronicities everywhere when I'm tripping.

Perhaps it's because our brain attach significance to random events? So it appears that things are in sync. More so when tripping, because you know how tripping makes every detail come alive.

It is coincidental. There are too many parts that do not match up at all. If it was intentional it would work much more cleanly. A lot of people expect it to be utterly mindblowing; it really isn't. Definitely very cool, but far from some grand psychedelic conspiracy.
There are many other synchs (check google), but none seem to work as well. There is one with a portion of 2001 and Echoes that is worth checking out.
There is a debate on whether you are supposed to repeat the album after it runs out. I say no, Dark Side of the Rainbow ends nicely when Dorothy puts her ear to the Tin Man's chest and we hear his heart beating.
Anyway, everyone should definitely see it if they haven't.
