Ping Pong Carnival

Ping Pong Carnival

Despite the Engrish subtitle of “Ping Pong Boring,” this clip is anything but dull. In it, you’ll see table tennis players use their precision aim to perform a variety of trick shots, and just generally being silly. Also, we might have to try that fishing line trick.

Joyride: Tundra

For their latest bit of action carporn, Pennzoil headed to the frozen tundra of Alberta, Canada with a 2016 BMW M6, and driver Rhys Millen behind the wheel. While many of today’s car commercials are done with CGI, the driving in this impressive clip is 100% Millen.

Making a Tiled Roof Shed

Making a Tiled Roof Shed

Kermit x David Byrne

Kermit x David Byrne

Laser Time dug up this juicy nugget from an old episode of Muppets Tonight, in which Kermit donned a giant suit and proceeded to sing (er talk) a cover of Talking Heads’ classic Once in a Lifetime. You must stick around for Statler and Waldorf at the end. Same as it ever was.

The Argument Sketch Synthesized

The Argument Sketch Synthesized

One of Monty Python’s best sketches was the one between Michael Palin and John Cleese at the Argument Clinic. Here, Palin’s role is assumed by a vintage Dectalk Express, and Cleese’s by an Intex Talker, with its futuristic Votrax SC-01A chip. Because internet.
