Deaf baby gets cochlear implants activated and hears for the first time

Posted by Pete Berg on Thursday, May 27th, 2010 at 4:54 pm

This 8 month old baby was born deaf — watch the moment as his cochlear implants are activated and he hears sound — and his mother’s voice — for the first time. The look on his face is priceless! Technology truly is amazing.

Winnebago Man: The Documentary

Posted by Pete Berg on Thursday, May 27th, 2010 at 1:18 pm

The super popular YouTube clip “Winnebago Man” (where the foul-mouthed and tempermental Jack Rebney continually screws up his lines for a Winnebago infomercial) has been turned into a feature-length documentary! I can’t wait to see this. Yet another case of a YouTube sensation being turned into a much larger piece. Here is the trailer:

Here’s the original video that we all know and love:

If Iron Man were 1 year old, this is what he would look like.

What We Are

Posted by Pete Berg on Thursday, May 27th, 2010 at 8:09 am

We are just a bunch of monkeys. This great video from a few years back (2006!) really knocks humanity down a few pegs. And this guy is dead accurate. Must watch.

Throwing people under the bus

Posted by Pete Berg on Wednesday, May 26th, 2010 at 11:26 am

The catch phrase “throw [someone] under the bus” has EXPLODED over the past few years due to Reality TV. It’s synonymous with “backstabbing” a trusted friend / teammate, when you yourself are under threat. Here’s a compilation of all the times the phrase was used in the latest season of The Celebrity Apprentice, but I guarantee you that you could make a similar compilation of clips from any other season of a competition-based Reality TV show from the past few years.

Even more interestingly, I’ve found a few sources that originally attribute the phrase to Cyndi Lauper, way back in 1984. Considering that Cyndi was on this season of the Celebrity Apprentice, the whole thing has come full circle!

Van Halen Shreds

Posted by Pete Berg on Wednesday, May 26th, 2010 at 8:05 am

That’s funny, I thought Van Halen was a much better band than this. And those lyrics are just silly. Hmmm.

Back to the Future 1 & 2 Synced Up

Posted by Pete Berg on Tuesday, May 25th, 2010 at 8:24 pm

See what happened on November 12, 1955 from both points of view at the same time. I never realized how much attention to detail went into these two movies!

Shagged by a Rare Parrot

Posted by Pete Berg on Tuesday, May 25th, 2010 at 1:25 pm

While shooting for a nature documentary, Stephen Fry and zoologist Mark Carwardine came across an incredibly rare parrot on the verge of extinction. And judging by its sexual preferences, there’s a reason why. (This is a popular video I’ve seen a few times, but after coming across it again, I felt like I just had to share it here on Pie Heaven!)

Rick Dees – Disgorilla

Posted by Pete Berg on Tuesday, May 25th, 2010 at 1:21 pm

Last year, I posted a video of Rick Dees performing “Disco Duck”, a terrible novelty song that somehow got to #1 on the Billboard charts in 1976. Well, after his success, he tried to follow it up with an ape-themed sequel called Disgorilla. Suffice to say, this song did not reach the success of the original. It is, however, kinda awesome. (Thanks, Chris Val)

I say, I’m most terribly sorry…

A really cool mashup track made by the Cuban Boys, Ricardo Autobahn and Skreen B. These are the same people behind the epic Golden Age of Video mashup from last year.
