Awesome Funny Stuff

The guys from How Ridiculous are always thinking of new ways to break stuff. Their latest method: drop stuff from a 150-foot tall tower and a crane onto sharpened metal spikes. After a few misses, they managed to poke holes in a steel and concrete safe and a junkyard convertible.

What starts as an ordinary day in the city quickly descends into pandemonium when a gigantic wiener dog appears and starts crushing, crumbling, and chomping his way through the streets. Does the big dog with the stubby legs mean harm, or does he just want some snacks? Crusoe the Dachshund stars in this silly send-up of monster B-movies.

Gav and Dan, aka The Slow Mo Guys, wanted to see how G-forces affect a human face. Since they didn’t have a fighter jet or a centrifuge lying around, they did the next best thing. Dan jumped on a trampoline while holding a pricey high-speed camera. The expressions on Dan’s face in mid-flight are priceless.

The guys at Garage 54 seem to have an infinite supply of junker Ladas lying around their workshop. In this video, they took one of the notoriously bad Russian compact cars and cut away half of its body and chassis. By keeping the engine, transmission, driveshaft, axles, and exhaust system in place, it’s still fully driveable.

Usually, candles are supposed to smell pleasant. But The Stinky Candle Co. has carved out a niche by making candles that smell like strange, unexpected, and downright gross stuff. Fragrances include gasoline, garlic, exhaust, skunk, and dill pickles. They also make pleasant scents like chocolate cake and bubble gum.

Most of us rely on our phones or watches to tell us the time. But there’s something just so magical about using letting a mechanical bird announce the time instead. Clock Shop posted this video of a roomful of cuckoo clocks sounding off in sequence. We like to imagine they’re all saying “Here!” like an avian roll call.

We rarely need to print things these days. But for the first 40+ years of personal computing, printers were commonplace. And they were some of the most frustrating pieces of equipment ever. The book Shitty Printers catalogs and rips apart some of the worst offenders, from cheap home inkjets to menacing tractor-feed machines.

We’ve been known to drop a little cash at the tables and the occasional slot machine in Vegas, but we also recognize that the house always wins. Honest Ads dishes out the harsh reality of the psychological manipulation and mathematical advantages at play in these billion-dollar gambling establishments.

C’mon Barbie, let’s go party… and take my blues away. There I Ruined It used an AI version of Johnny Cash’s voice to sing this hilarious version of Aqua’s Barbie Girl, just in time for the movie to come out. Things truly run off the rails when the Spice Girls show up at the Folsom Prison.

With Barbie and Oppenheimer hitting theaters on the same release day, the unlikely duo has become the meme power couple of summer 2023. Artist Steven Richter went one step further and imagined the two movies as one in his hilariously warped, very short film. The best part is watching how he made it.

The Aqua song Barbie Girl is one of the cheesiest pop songs of all time. But what if it was actually a really complicated track that required serious skills to perform? Bass player Charles Berthoud explores just that idea by turning it into the hardest song to play.

Ridley Scott’s Napoleon movie looks pretty epic. But we think it could be even better if they swapped out Joaquin Phoenix’s Napoleon with the version from Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure. YouTuber Dogfoody brings that idea to life with this special Ziggy Piggy edition of the trailer. At least this Napoleon has a French accent.

About the only thing Marshall Mathers and David Byrne have in common is that they both had hit songs. But what if the Talking Heads had written a song about Eminem’s career and his rhyming abilities? It might have sounded something like this track by Nick Lutsko. So put your orange door hinge in storage and hit play now.

Matt Thompson loves to build fun and sometimes ridiculous things. His Beer-Me-Baby provides a clever way to disguise a beer cooler while people think he’s pushing a baby stroller. Not recommended for use with actual babies.

Sellatorful created a gory hand-drawn sequence that depicts how Alien’s Xenomorphs are born and grow. But the original was missing an appropriate soundtrack. So Bag Ingi added Michael Giacchino’s tune Married Life, the music from Pixar’s Up that underscores Carl and Ellie’s sweet but heartbreaking life story.

Animator MootroidXproductions loves to create stop-motion shorts using action figures and toys. This epic battle sequence features a confrontation between multiple building-stomping Godzillas and a powerful human/Pikachu hybrid, all set to a jazzy soundtrack. They followed it up with Godzilla vs. Kong vs. Pexachu.
