On the topic of snuff. This is not snuff. Snuff will show the actual death of a person in visceral detail and is made for that purpose only. Showing the precursor to a horrific accident is not by any means a snuff film. While we know that someone dies off camera several minutes later, the video was not posted to show "death" and the glorious nature of death. Rather this video was posted by the friends of the deceased as a warning to people thinking of zorbing in the future.

Some of the highlights:
• At one point, the show interviews one of Hugh Hefner‘s ex-girlfriends holding a Carl’s Jr. cheeseburger because the burger chain sponsored this hot steaming pile of disaster.

• Macy Gray (remember her?!?!?!) dropped by to give what seems like a completely stoned performance of that song that won her a Grammy 12 friggin’ years ago.

• On multiple occasions, Kennedy and/or the show’s producers ask on a hot mic whether the show is currently live (hint: it was) while liberally peppering in some profanity for the sake of it. The first few seconds of one return from commercial break began with Kennedy on-stage looking around confusedly while off-camera voices asked “Where’s my stage manager?” and declared: “Don’t fucking give me shit.”

• The control room couldn’t seem to figure out how to press the right buttons and so interviews were cut off mid-sentence, camera shots sometimes never changed, random Carl’s Jr. ads ran during the middle of broadcast, and a video of Jamie Kennedy at a comedy club took about 10 seconds to load.

• One random woman in the crowd figured out how to read teleprompter behind co-host Stu Stone and mimicked his read for an entire two minutes. Sheer brilliance.

• Some guy dropped a big ol’ “motherfucker” live on-air.

• Oh hey, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony (remember THEM?!?!?!?!) must’ve time-traveled from the 1990s to perform a few songs, seemingly missing the memo about “not cursing on air,” because… umm… they cursed. A lot.

• Kennedy channels the 2003 film that made him relevant for 10 whole minutes — Malibu’s Most Wanted — and tries his best at hitting on a drunk black woman: “You should go white, because it’ll keep your vagina very tight.”

• The show ends with a spontaneous fight on-stage behind the hosts… and then silence as the credits roll. Perfection.

He's keeping his cobra assault cannon off camera..

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

By most accounts Chevy was a bit of a jerk off-camera on the show - but he still had some great, truly funny moments - usually playing the straight man.

I was almost expecting to see him yanked off camera with a great big hook, like a bad comedian on old Broadway.

wtf ... Why the hell are people laughing?


Delayed reaction to potentially catastrophic situation and her relative calm. Her bun was thick enough to protect her scalp and looks like a groomsman was johnny-on-the-spot off-camera to extinguish the fun!!

Classic. Worse if the kid who got the touchdown dropped the ball outside the endzone (looked like he might have off camera) and the other team picked it up and ran. Such non-intuitive rules in that game.

still, off camera he led the homeless in a rousing ten minutes of P90X

Just off camera, about 50 secret service guns being aimed...

1. Side-swiping the wall on the way up.
2. Panicking and ramming the wall at the top of the ramp (or another car - it's off-camera).
3. Not setting the brake and letting the car roll back down the ramp.

Just when you thought she could not do any worse... I am just not sure what is the 3rd accident.

Wow, this movie looks powerful as hell. I was going to comment with some skepticism about how they were able to capture this on camera, but then I read the Q&A. Apparently they asked the school's permission to film there all year round and they just moved around as flies on the wall. They filmed a lot of different events/kids so that they didn't seem to be focusing just on the main character. Although they were surprised that the bullying continued in their presence, they weren't that surprised because the kids had been getting away with it forever. Also, they were filming with cameras that looked like still-shot cameras so the kids might not have thought they were being taped. The producers also say that they think the worst acts happened off camera.
Here's a link to their notes (good stuff):

I honestly don't know what I would do if my kids had to go through this. I feel like I'd go into rage mode and start just kicking kids asses, but that's easy to say and certainly doesn't solve anything. I don't know why - I certainly was never violent to anyone else - but whenever I watch videos of bullying or meet a kid with no friends, this huge sense of guilt passes over me. I guess I just wish I would've taken chances back in school to stand up for people or even more importantly hang out with someone who was always on their own.
TL;DR: gonna watch this movie


You're adorable I know exactly what you mean, it's so irrational, but whenever I hear a kid has been really mean to one of mine, I want to go ahead and kick that brat hard in the shin or something. I cannot abide bullying, I was always an inbetweener at school and I could dip into both sides of the crowd. I remember even at the age of about 7 or so, making a point of playing with the louse ridden, rotting toothed girl, because all she ever got was rejection. It made me sick to my stomach. I tell my children now, go and talk to those kids that everyone hates, even if you hate them too (so easy for them to fall into that trap of disliking others for no good reason), because often, they turn out to be really cool and not only that, you're in the simplest of ways making that child's life a bit easier.

<edit> No clue how I made it bold...

Complaint about title, DAWs have to die to win. Merely coming close is just an Honorable Mention.

The techinical qualifications are a bit nebulous. Can you only remove yourself from the "[collective] human genome" by death? Or is it sufficient to steralize yourself and ensure you leave no progeny?
The Darwin Awards salute the improvement of
the human genome by honoring those who
accidentally remove themselves from it...
Though, in this case you're correct either way, I'm just being pedantic.


You just couldn't see it, that's all. He rolled off camera, and out into the street where he was hit by a bus.

>> ^shuac:

What about the water bottle with the little tube?


It's a 50 gallon barrel with some 2" pvc just off camera to the right.

>> ^Lann:

hehe MIA flipped off the camera @8:19


I wonder how many of the millions watching actually noticed when it happened. And now that the media has latched onto that they'll pound the THINK OF THE CHILDREN, angel into the ground. The hilarity is kids have been flipping off cameras since class pictures were invented.

As far as the show, its probably the best one since the Janet Jackson and nipple gate.
