Ok, I wouldn’t go as far as to say it’s a _favorite_ of mine, but it’s pretty nifty:

A rather scathing and hysterical video about Bush declaring martial law and issuing new coins.

[Jerry O’Connell next on Tommy’s hitlist](http://digg.com/comedy/The_Parody_Video_Tom_Cruise_WANTS_you_to_see), a hilarious take on the Tom Cruise scientology video making the rounds (not youtube).

A compilation of clips of featherweight boxer [“Prince” Naseem Hamed](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfUFYtXNN0A). Cocky little fuck equally famous for his antics in the ring and his flashy, explosive style. He seems like a first class douche but his talent is undeniable with 36 wins out of 37 fights, 31 of them KOs. Best clip starts at 2:20. It must be infuriating to fight this guy.

Apologies for the double post but seeing that a video of a hyperactive featherweight boxer is not adequately manly, here’s the [North Korean Military Choir](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXrbDJHkpjE). Very reminiscent of the Red Army Choir. Both menacing and awesome.

I first saw this guy 13-14 years ago on TV, and even then I thought he must be the best ventriloquist in the world. Here’s Jeff Dunham with his gang of dummies:

(Peanut is who I thought of the first time I saw the word “whoosh” on the SDMB)

Any Filipinos here?

Sorry, but if you don’t speak Tagalog, you won’t find it very funny. Unless the guy’s horrible pronunciation actually transcends the language barrier, I dunno.

That one led to “2 Chickens Break Up Rabbit Fight.” It’s true. The chickens actually stop the fight and then walk off.
