Watch an Intense Close Encounter With Whales
If you like whales or the sound of a panicking teenage girl, this is definitely the video for you. Just be careful where you watch it. While it is obviously extremely SFW (it's just a father and daughter in a canoe looking at a whale), the heavy breathing and moans do sound a little suspicious if nobody can see the actual video...
Nic Cage Inserted Into Other Movies Is the Best Thing Ever
We think that Nicolas Cage should be in every movie. We're sure Cage agrees with us (those dinosaur bones aren't going to pay for themselves). Oh, you beg to differ? Maybe you should watch this video that sticks him in several of your favorite films...
Conan O’Brien Offers a Senior’s Guide to Texting
Thanks to Team Coco for giving this educational guide to texting for seniors to the world. But you might not want to let your grandparents see it. Unless you want them to have constant, instant access to making you feel bad in that special grandparent way, that is...
Zombies Attack In Awesome Banned Commercial
In case you were wondering how much is too much for Norwegian television, here's your answer. This advertisement for Scandinavian sporting goods chain XXL caused an uproar when it aired over the weekend. People complained that it was too violent and graphic, maybe because of that scene when a zombie's arm flies off with the golf club it was swinging...
Baller Cat Videobombs Weather Report
Apparently the Univision parking lot is overrun with cats. But one of them wasn't content to hang around the lot and wait for its big break. This cat made its way into the building and walked on camera right in the middle of the weather report...
Newscaster Gustavo Almodovar Has the Greatest Sign-Off
At this precise moment in time, we are so grateful that we don't live in Orange County. If we did, the local news might have driven us insane by now. Here's a video compilation of reporter Gustavo Almodovar signing off over and over again. And every time it's exactly the same...
Is ‘Milking’ the New, Weirder ‘Planking’?
We know, you didn't think it would be possible for a meme to be more random than planking, but it's happened. Consider this -- after planking, one is not drenched in approximately a half a gallon of milk. That's the problem you get with "milking," which is basically a person standing in a public place dumping a half gallon of milk on their head while somebody films them.
Man Wins $250,000 on Live TV Ending Streak of Bad Luck
Maybe karma is real -- the man in this video, Bill Morgan, was in a car accident. Then he developed a heart condition. He was allergic to the medicine doctors gave him to treat it and had a heart attack. In fact, his heart stopped for 14 minutes, and he went into a coma. They were about to pull the plug on his life support when things turned around.
Man Flies From Hong Kong to Give Family Thanksgiving Surprise
In this heartwarming video, a man bought a plane ticket from Hong Kong to fly home and surprise his family, who weren't expecting him. Basically unless you did this for Thanksgiving too, you've been outdone. Putting raisins in the pumpkin cake just doesn't seem like that big of a shocker all of the sudden...
Men Raise $20,000 for Charity With Goofy Webcast
In a heartwarming and wacky video sure to bring you some Christmas spirit, two Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, men acted like buffoons for 24 hours, and in exchange the world gave them money. It's like you want to make fun of them, but then they raised $20,000 for Toys for Tots.
The Funniest Black Friday Memes
It's Black Friday, and you know what that means -- hiding in your home away from the world while people desperately claw at each other's faces to buy a Wii U for their kid. The madness is not for everybody. Some of us like to eat cold turkey all day and wonder how a person could be so hungover. For those of us who would rather spend time with our TVs watching 'Star Wars' than rioting over discount
Check Out This Ridiculously Gruesome Cranberry Commercial
Thanksgiving isn't just about the turkey-- there's also cranberry sauce. Those poor, poor cranberries. Here's a hilarious (NSFW) commercial parody by comedian Sam Kim about how cruel a process they must endure to become so very, very delicious...
