You lot know Vinnie Jones, right? The Guy Ritchie movie stalwart who looks, and sounds, as though he was put on this Earth with the sole purpose of causing other people massive amounts of pain. All without breaking a sweat of course.
Well he has now teamed up with the British Heart Foundation to teach you hands-only CPR, set to (appropriately enough) the Bee Gees’ massive hit Stayin’ Alive. Take a look:
I imagine he’d accidentally crush your ribcage into powder if not paying attention, but that’s to be expected: he’s kinda the bloke Chuck Norris wants to be when he grows up.
For more light-hearted clips of His Royal Vinnieness, check out “Vinnie Jones will beat you thin…” a clip of his very own ‘Attack Cardio’ – his way of getting you thin, presumably by causing you to literally crap yourself skinny from pure fear.
And then, while we’re on the subject of saving lives, the guys may wanna click over to another old post, “Super Sexy CPR“, coz it really is important to know how to do this stuff…
In keeping with the spirit of the previous post, Justin Bieber vs Slipknot, I figured I’d share this little pearler with you: a death metal version of Rebecca’s Black massive (and massively slated) tune Friday. No idea what I’m harping on about? Then check this first: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD2LRROpph0. Pretty rubbish, right?
Right, now that you’ve done your research, back to the point of all this:
So have you been keeping up to date with the latest releases from The Lonely Island? For those not familiar with these three, The Lonely Island is an American comedy troupe composed of Akiva Schaffer, Jorma Taccone, and Andy Samberg, best known for its musical parodies (as written on Wikipedia – so it MUST be true ). Take one of their latest, and one of their best, examples – with really really really impressive viewership stats listed too (who says this site ain’t educationamaleducationarising well smart?):
I just had sex (feat. Akon) – and starring the superbly-fine Jessica Alba (38,9 million views so far!)
Comedy gold? Thought so. But it doesn’t end there – check out some of these guys’ previous classics:
Jizz in my pants – starring Molly Sims and Jamie-Lynn Sigler (95,7 million views so far!)
BBC America was nice enough to ‘translate’ and explain, all in a very tongue-in-cheek kinda way, what American viewers can expect on the new LAW & Order: UK series. Take a look:
Check out this brilliant clip of a builder and a plumber having a chat with a lad who reckons he’s Maximus from Gladiator (i.e. Russell Crowe):
Info from the site, including a good-sport reply from the second ‘victim’ – the plumber (posted by roberthurley17):
An unsuspecting builder and plumber are asked to survey a site they believe needs work. They man they come to meet seems to think he’s Maximus though. Heres a message from one of the great sports involved! “N15gooner” Ringers….Fame at last. Ringers….Fame at last. Robert, Thanx for posting the “ringers” sketch up,..
I’m the fat plumber on the second half of the sketch, its really weird to see yourself on you tube, showed it to my little girl who was amazed to see her dad on the internet.
We run a small Plumbing and heating firm in St Albans Hertfordshire, my business partner new someone that new someone on the BBC production team, and put me up for it, I was sent over to meet a rep from St Albans council to carry out an estimate for some work on the site of the Roman walls and theatre, when I got there a young girl met me and said that she had double booked the reps appointment and he was having his photos taken for some publicity shots, And would I mind meeting him while he was dressed as a Roman General, When I walked onto the set they production team were taking photos of him, just to add to the con of it.
It was filmed in September 2002 and first aired at Christmas, I didn’t watch it, but I knew it was on when I had ten calls and text messages from my pals ripping the mickey from me. I was in a Local builders merchants, when a little old lady asked me If I was the lad from the telly, I denied it and said “it was me brother luv, nobody would get me like that”
some of my mates still take the mickey even today, but you have to take it the way its ment, with good humour. Anyways best be off, I’ve got an aquaduct to build between St Albans and Londinium, but I might sub-contract it out to Freddie McAlpine.
Best wishes, Marcus Ludicrus. Aka Mark the Plumber, St Albans.
Just for old times’ sake here is the best scene from the classic Bad Boys II: the one where some teenager makes the schoolboy error of trying to pick Marcus’s daughter up for a date. Cue much hilarity and intimidation…
Volkswagen have come up with a great new viral video campaign called “Fast Lane”. According to the company, “Fast Lane is dedicated to everyone who loves to go beyond the regular, who is curious for new stuff and who simply enjoys to speed it all up a little. FAST LANE – Driven by fun.”
Take a look at the following three videos – in each one a team modifies a humdrum regularity of our day-to-day life, all with the aim of making life a little bit faster and a bit more fun. Each video carries the slogan “Dedicated to everyone who enjoys speeding life up a little.”
First up – affixing skateboards to shopping trolleys…
Fast lane – The shopping carts:
Next, causing an elevator journey to make you feel a bit like an astronaut…
Fast lane – The elevator
And finally, making access to a Tube station that much more entertaining and speedy…
Fast lane – The slide
I think it’s a great concept, if purely for the fact that it would really perk up your day if you stumbled across this sort of thing! 10 points.
