Joaquin Phoenix’s Newest Rap Video, “The Phoenix Rises”

Posted by Pete Berg on Wednesday, February 18th, 2009 at 8:30 am

My friend Ann sent this along to me (some of her high school friends made it). It’s pretty funny, so I thought I’d share. I love how terrible the fake Joaquin’s rapping is…really just mumbling.

The Biggest Viral Video Sensations that I somehow missed

Posted by Pete Berg on Tuesday, February 17th, 2009 at 2:05 pm

A guy name Greg Rutter has created a website called You Should Have Seen This, which features a “Definitive List of The 99 Things You Should Have Already Experienced On The Internet Unless You’re a Loser or Old or Something.”

It’s a list of 99 of the most famous online videos and memes that Greg believes everyone should have seen. I scored 93 / 99, and for the most part, I think this is a good list. (The 6 videos that I hadn’t seen are posted below.)

I would, however, say that some items aren’t nearly on the same level as others. Some of the clips below have only 60,000 hits — which is peanuts compared to the 114 million that true viral hits like “Evolution of Dance” have. Not to mention the the thousands of excluded YouTube videos with millions of more views…where are the more popular web hits like LonelyGirl15, Smosh, Shoes, Yo Dawg, Ninja Cat and Cooking by the Book?

Anyway, Give it a try! How many have you seen?

(Thanks to Jason Sheridan for sending this along.)

Mr. Rogers was the greatest human being in the history of the world, ever

Posted by Pete Berg on Monday, February 16th, 2009 at 8:17 pm

Mr. Rogers has got to be the most genuine, caring and compassionate person in the history of television. I grew up on Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood, (as did just about every American kid born in the last 40 years), and it was such an important part of my childhood. Today, I stumbled across this clip of Fred Rogers defending PBS to the U.S. Senate in 1969. It’s absolutely touching.

Thirty years later, here is Mr. Rogers saying good-bye on one of the final episodes of Neighborhood. What an amazing man. I wish I had even one ounce of Mr. Rogers’ character.

Saudi Arabian man eats 22 live scorpions

Posted by Pete Berg on Monday, February 16th, 2009 at 8:26 am

Impressive. But why does this have such cutesy, upbeat music? I think horror music would be more appropriate.

BANG!

Osaka, Japan. The place where you can point to a random stranger, say “BANG”, and they’ll pretend you’ve shot them.
