The Best of YouTube: Week of April 12, 2010

 

 
 
 
Clueless soccer announcer

This inattentive soccer announcer evidently knows that sometimes it's best to simply come clean and admit that you haven't got a clue about what's going on.



Music teacher destroys violin

Wow, this music teacher seems like a real jerk.



April Fools: Math Class Shadow

This teacher's students are lucky to have him. He doesn't get paid any extra to thoroughly entertain these kids on April Fool's Day, but he nonetheless spent what must have been an awful lot of his free time to give them something they'll probably never forget.



Rope tow wedgie

I'm not sure what possessed this man to straddle a rope tow on a ski hill, but I don't feel sorry for him, because three seconds of observation and half an ounce of common sense might have told him that he only needed to grab the rope instead of turning what should be a simple mode of transportation into a medieval torture device. At first I was slightly disturbed that the guy with the camera wasn't doing anything to help, but after thinking about it, I realized that he couldn't exactly catch up to him, and in the end, he probably handled it exactly right: 1.) Laugh heartily at his stupidity and misfortune 2.) Politely ask if he's okay, and 3.) Laugh at him some more.



"I Will Always Love You"

This is an amazing rendition of Whitney Houston's signature song, and it also happens to be a contender for the very least manly performance of all time.



The Yippity Yo Cooking Show

This one is quite long for a passable YouTube video, but I'm making an exception in this case, because the kid featured here is both cute and hilarious. I'm not sure I support a father standing by with a video camera as his child eats this much chocolate, but I suppose it's no worse than anything I did on Halloween or Easter Sunday as a kid.



Texas Stadium demolition

Now that they have a gargantuan new stadium to house the Dallas Cowboys, Texas Stadium found itself on the wrong side of obsolescence, and was destroyed over the weekend. It's fun to watch big things get blowed up!



Full-body wax in Sydney

This hairy guy's girlfriend challenged him to get a full body wax in a most painful and public way for charity. Like a charitable fool, he agreed.



Alan Thicke Sings "Sweaty and Hot"

I would like to present the Worst Anything In The History Of Everything. I'm very, very sorry. How were things like this allowed to happen with such regularity in the '80s?
