Maybe if he balanced on chairs, or was getting out of a straitjacket hanging upside down. This is just a kid who doesn’t care if he dies with no extraordinary skill other than being an imbecile.

    Being deathly afraid of heights, watching that video made my testicles un-descend.

    The text at the end looks like some of the random comments at itsbigfurhat.com, or the emails I get from a rich Nigerian Prince.

    That’s more than sad. Historically the best boxers have come out of the U.S.A. when times are really bad. Obama’s legacy, created lots of great club fighters.

    The music explains the whole defective culture of this boy’s life in that the music in itself is defective culture.

    If I post a blog and with a link to your posting, evidently it will add a comment to your blog.

    Since I try to send people traffic all of the time, it thinks I am spaming.

    And if you link to say queersareus.com, and post look at the silly fags, they might say screw furhat and mark you as spam when it tracks back as a comment to the fag site.

    If that happens a set amount of times IOTW is now marked as spam. Then no one can comment on another blog saying go check out iotw.com because it is a spam url.

    That is where im41 is at right now..

    I stopped the video two seconds after that rap shit started playing. I won’t associate with anybody who calls it music. That shit started in prisons and that’s where it should stay.

    If you think this is crazy go back and look at some of the stunts that Buster Keaton and Harold Lloyd did in their day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEcTjhUN_7U

    Ok son, I get it – you’re a fearless, nothing-to-lose, badass. But you’re still stupid. And there are way too many stupid badasses who die before their time.

    The point is this:

    The whole video is a cautionary tale with more layers than a Vidalia onion.

    A young man from Ukraine
    - a former Soviet Bloc country once led by Marxists
    - – politicians with views similar to Obama’s

    ruins his shoes
    - a common symbol of status among poor inner-city youth

    and risks killing himself
    - which demonstrates this kid’s desperation and/or pinky hold on reality

    while producing a video
    - using a remix of the song “Lose Yourself” as the soundtrack
    - – performed by Eminem, a resident of Detroit
    - – - a city ruined by the very same sort of policies and politics that ruined the city this Ukrainian lives in

    which he hopes to sell to New Balance
    - a company which undoubtedly neither knows nor cares a whit about this kid, considering that more talent can be found in any random 5 seconds of “American Ninja Warrior” than this entire video

    and hopefully earn enough money to have a life much better than the one he has now.

    Desperate times are giant petri dishes for this sort of thing. And Marxism is a gargantuan petri dish for desperate times.

    Nice analysis TN Tuxedo.

    Desperate times call for desperate measures. I hope we’re not getting a glimpse of our future.

    Too bad we didn’t get treated to a shot of his pupils, I’ll bet they would tell all–a chemically enhanced ‘superman’. Another by-product of today’s soulless culture.
