Moving this video to KnivesOut's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

*beg

Sending this video to Beggar's Canyon to plea for a little attention - beg requested by original submitter KnivesOut.

I was about to call dupe on this one because of THIS vid: http://www.videosift.com/video/Theyre-perfectly-safe-When-the-front-doesnt-fall-off, but for some crazy reason karaidl killed all of his videos?!

I thought we were giving those to siftbot? In any case, the vote merge should NOT be applied.

Nice comedy

Reminiscent of the old "who's on first"

Here's the incident in question:

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

Linked from The Atlantic's Andrew Sullivan today.

John Clarke and Bryan Dawe are fantastic! I'm an expat Aussie (now living in the US) so this really made my day. Anyone remember Clarke's farnarkling reports on the Gillies Report? Excellent stuff, artfully merging the turgid gravitas of sports commentary with the visual majesty of outrageous wigs.

In light of the recent spill in the Gulf of Mexico, I'd like to give the BP executives some practice in deflecting questioning.
