I went to watch it again, and there were no subtitles here at home. I clicked on a button I’d never clicked before, and there they were. I learned something today.
I just watched it without sound. Guy looks like Dave Foley.
Johnny L.A., please tell me how to find this button of which you speak.
He does kind of look like Dave Foley!
On my Safari browser the bar below the video screen has the play/pause button, the speaker button, and time elapsed/running time on the left. On the right side is HTML5 (not a button), a CC button, ‘360p’ and a size button.
Subtitles are controlled by the CC button.
No, THIS is the most disturbing video EVER:
ETA this wasn’t in the spirit of the thread upon re-read. PLEASE don’t watch this if you are squeamish. Its really, really bad.
Mods, delete my post as necessary. Sorry guys.
I reported it for you.
They really need to change that feature so we can report our own posts. I think we can be trusted to not abuse it.

Actually, it was changed a couple of years ago – you can, indeed, report your own post.
old link is old
Was that song popularized in the west before this video became popular? The refrain sounds soooo familiar, and I’d almost swear I’ve heard it with English lyrics, but I can’t place it. Any ideas?
(I think it’s a pretty good song, actually…sounds kind of like a pop arrangement of a Hoagy Carmichael tune.)
Love this comment from that link:
"That’s how we rick roll in the old days, Fk off Astley! "

I found the video disturbing at first too, but after seeing the latter-day interviews with Khil, I gotta say - that guy is OK.
I. . .I can’t tear my eyes away from the Trololo video. It’s surreal. It’s HYPNOTIZING!
He really does seem to be a sweet guy. I like his idea that everyone writes their own lyrics and then the whole world can sing along.
I think my lyrics will be along the lines of “EEEEKY EEEKY AGH AGH!”
Edit: Is that not what he had in mind?
So Foie gras, what was the one you posted originally? Can you just describe it?
It was a horrorific and very real cellphone video of someone being murdered with a hammer and a screwdriver as one of the 21 victims of what have been called the “Dnepropetrovsk maniacs”.
Here’s the wiki link to the story, which is horrible enough without the video: Dnepropetrovsk maniacs - Wikipedia
Someone at work tricked me into watching it, I could only stand about a minute of it its so bad. I don’t know why I felt compelled to share it even under the false auspices of a “most disturbing video EVAH!” thread…but I guess just for sheer shock value. But its really bad. You can find it if you really want to with google.
So is this an actual snuff film?
