Post #4

I chose this video for this post because I enjoy watching funny videos on Youtube. Neg has a whole list of so called, "Urban Sports" that he likes to participate in. Neg resides in the great city of London, England. This video is set in his home city where he likes to play practical jokes on his neighbors. The video is originally a clip from a television show such as, "Saturday Night Live" that is shown in England. The name of this particular T.V. series is "Balls of Steel." It tries to highlight people that do some pretty outrageous things. I've seen many of the crazy people that have been shown on this series. I believe that Neg's antics put him high up there in the rankings of the funniest person in England. Many of his, "Urban Sports" are laugh out loud funny and can keep you occupied at your computer or television for quite sometime. If you are ever in need of a laugh it is guaranteed that Neg could very well be the perfect provider. He is an overall very funny guy. His resent for common courtesy is what makes him such a big hit. He doesn't care about what others think about him or what he does. He has no regards for the feelings of those that he plays his cruel practical jokes on. He is only in it to get his audience to laugh and keep watching his stuff. His videos make for great entertainment. I highly suggest watching any of his other videos that are posted on YouTube. Chances are you'll be up all night skipping your homework for more laughs. Some of these other videos include, Burger Bowling, Big Stranger Rodeo, and Human Skittles. Each of which will provide you with a good 5 to 10 minute riot. Neg could be considered one of England funniest men. To some he could even be considered a hero for all the things he does.

Post #3 Video



I chose this video because it is truly the mother of all pranks like the title on Youtube states. What kind of sick person thinks of a prank like this? This would scare the living daylights out of anyone, when the ground below you suddenly disappears. Falling into water that you couldn't see, not know how deep it really was, would scare anyone in their right mind. The look on the people's faces as they fall into the water and as they're trying to get out of the artificial pool is priceless. A picture is worth a thousand words. Even our canine friends aren't immune to the antics of these genius pranksters. I think that it is even funnier when the bikers find themselves trying to bike through water. Many of these bikers even get the privilege of diving face first into the water. If I were one of the lucky bikers I would be mad because I'd have to get back in to get my bike out of the waters murky depths. After all is said and done I would say that the people that came up with this prank are geniuses.


At the beginning of this short video the announcers, commentators, or what have you are speaking in a different language. I don't think that hurts this video in any way, although it would be nice to know exactly what the producers of this video were saying there at the beginning. The music selected on this video is kind of cheesy just like the music from that Web 2.0 video. However, because this video is so funny I think that the bad music is easily forgotten about. The editors of this video put some of the best faces and best falls into their man made pool. I think that they could have allowed for more laugh out loud fun by showing all the falls they had recorded. However, the video is funny enough as it is. I don't think that this video could have been made any better.


These three aspects make this video very entertaining and well worth the 3 minutes it takes to watch this video. Take the time to watch my video. Sit back, relax and enjoy.
