Several key elements to this video:

1. obviously, how excited he gets
2. the sister emulating his every action, from clawing at the box to pumping her fist in the air
3. his "........." reaction to the 2nd gift

heh, i know that feeling. Hope he is doing something cool now, would make him like 18 or so.

We got it on ebay, son, it said "Nintendo 64 Box", open it up!!

Holy Crap.... Unreal!

well i didn't like it when i saw it for the first time, and didn't like it even now

i have to say that this video clearly illustrates the need for parents to have a strategy for present-order.

upvote for the "...A NINTENDO 64!!!!!!........and a remote control car............"

Uh . . . this is part of a BMW ad running right now in NY. Did they steal it?

Unbelievable. I wonder if the owner of this video got paid, but yeah I just saw the BMW ad during Scrubs. I couldn't believe my eyes when it started. They covered the image of the N64 on the box with a generic, old-fashioned robot.

Same with an ad here in Minnesota.

I have to *promote this again. Classic

Wait a minute!!! Is the whole family wearing the same pyjamas???


I wonder what this kid is doing now. Any record of that anywhere?
Like with Spencer Elden the kid on the cover of Nirvanas Nevermind, or the "I like turtles" Kid they found for a report later?

It would have been funny if the box was filled with cat food.

Love it. The bullet-time-esque random slowdowns are really what get me.

And then his head exploded..

Come on, who doesn't miss that feeling as a kid when your parents bought you exactly what you wanted and you had no clue you were getting it.

I remember when I was maybe 8 or 9, I wanted the big AT-AT walker from Empire Strikes Back. That thing was like $80 and in those days and at the time in my parent's careers, I figured there was no we we could afford it. I went to the mall and BEGGED Santa for it (even though I was suspecting he wasn't real).

When I got up that Christmas morning and saw it sitting by the fireplace, I burst into tears of pure happiness. I'll never forget that feeling and now that I have kids of my own, I can relive that feeling through them every year when I get them awesome shit. When my oldest son turns 9, I am going to find a vintage At-At and get it for him because I can.

This video reminds me of me when I was little. Me and my brother got Sega Mega Drive II for Christmas and my reactions were almost exactly like this. Except I grabbed the box and ran with it from the living room down the hallway and then back to the living room.
Good times.
