Awesome Video Of The Day
An Interesting Response
This video is pretty average in a lot of ways - there are about a billion videos of people punching each other in the face on YouTube - but it does have one redeeming factor: it marks the first time in recorded human history that somebody has responded to a punch in the face with the phrase “Ah, fuck - I can’t believe you’ve done this.”
Not in TOTAL human history, mind you; with over 6 billion people on our planet, I’m pretty sure there are a handful of people out there who, after being punched in the face, have turned around in disbelief and said, “Ah, fuck - I can’t believe you’ve done this.” I’d estimate that it’s happened around 14 times in a handful of different languages, but never before has there been a camera around to document it. This 11 second-long video marks the very first time that it’s been recorded for posterity’s sake, so don’t write this off as another typical dude-gets-punched-in-the-face-on-YouTube video. It might be a video of a dude getting punched in the face, but it’s also historically significant.
You know - because the guy says “Ah, fuck - I can’t believe you’ve done this.”
Incidentally, this particular blog post is historically significant in a very similar way: it marks the first time anyone on the internet has said “barnacle shuffle” or “King Tut’s balls.” What do I win?

I want to thank you Ross for causing me to have the phrase “King Tut’s balls” in my head
all …. day….. long. Barnacle shuffle not so much.

I normally read the blurb before watching the video, and as soon as I saw the phrase “I can’t believe you’ve done this” I immediately knew the person in the video would be British.
That is all.

According to the search, you haven’t said “king tut’s balls” either, although I can clearly see … hmmm …

Yes, Grimm, I use firefox. Secrets of the Cracked bloggers revealed!
I’d also like to add for the record that “King Tut’s dick” was already taken.

I felt like punching him in the face to be perfectly honest.

There must be a RickRoll in here somewhere… and I’m not falling for it.

Ah fuck, I can’t believe I’ve done this

Maybe, rather than hanging out with guys that are prone to punching him in the face, he is just a guy who is prone to being punched in the face for no reason.

Congratulations, Someguy. I hope you get a day off in comemoratrion of your achievement.
I can’t help but wonder… why do people hang out with guys that are prone to punching them in the face for no reason? Have you no real friends?
