Man both of these videos are infectiously happy. Holy shit I had forgotten about them completely. Grinning ear to ear right now just laughing and loving these. I love when the people sing along. Definitely needed these videos after just seeing a *lot* of “downer” videos and events lately.
What I find interesting is how the girls with boyfriends go from confused to laughing then partially hide behind their boyfriend while they continue to watch. It's like, "protect me from this dancing guy in a bikini...but don't."
His version of “All I Want for Christmas is You” belongs in the Smithsonian. https://m.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=15&v=InYvRyX2Fu4&feature=emb_logo
There used to be a game show years ago where people could go into a supermarket and fill their trollies up with anything they wanted. They didn’t have to pay for anything but they had to do it quickly. So you’d get people shooting through like lunatics
I’m surprised it was popular (or maybe it wasn’t?). It’s quite uninteresting if you think about the low monetary value. Probably just for fun I suppose
So one of our illustrious tabloid newspapers used to run a "rear of the year" award, where they'd basically bestow a title of "best arse" on a lucky female celebrity. Rectum of the year is just a play on that, taken to an absurd and implausible extreme!
It's funny because it's so ridiculous. He just runs with his initial comment of winning the rectum of the year award where he made the judges throw up. The rest isn't actually funny, but because everyone's already laughing, it just continues the funniness, however it isn't actually funny out of context. /RIP Sean
Jimmy's response to that is so genuine. He couldn't stop laughing, "If you're just joining us, Sean has graciously volunteered to not spit on our guest."
Fucking classic.
I feel like everyone forgets the brilliantly quick retort by Miles: “Good luck trying it without the spit.”
Any of us woulda only thought of that a few days later in the shower
Yea my buddies and I would get together with a few beers and spend an hour skimming through penis’ to find regular people and play silly things like Pictionary with them for the hell of if
I forget if it was a written article or another video he did, but he said he had to go through a *lot* of people for usable footage and people that would sign a release/give consent.
If you can't absolutely rock out to the masterpiece "Call Me Maybe" by the legendary Carly Rae with a mostly nude crossdresser, what are you even doing on Chat Roulette? Isn't that kind of the whole point of it?
It really is one of the catchiest songs of all time. I might roll my eyes a little when it comes on, but by 20 seconds in I’m dancing and singing along. I cannot resist by the time she gets to “where do you think you’re goin’ baby?!” Lol
This to me is going to gay bars. I'm straight and have no desire to dabble, but God damn do these fellas know how to fuckin party. Walked in to a drag show 2 weeks ago and EVERYONE was having an amazing time. I love the energy and everyone being allowed to just have fun for no reason.
I've been to gay bars around 20 times in my life. I've always made it clear that I'm just there for a good time and I've never paid for a drink.
Gay bars are fun as fuck.
Back in early 2019 I had met some people at an event, and we decided to head out for some afternoon drinks. One of them told me that they were heading to a drag show later, said in a way that indicated that they expected me to not want to tag along (which maybe wasn't that surprising since I'm a nerdy straight white male), but I was fucking stoked. I ended up having a fantastic time, the entire thing was a blast.
Yep, I was basically the only straight dude doing theatre club and stuff at university. All of my very best friends from university are the most extremely prolific sodomites, but god dammit those gays know how to party. Twenty years later I still prefer a night out with them than pretty much anything else. You haven't lived until you've seen a bear and a twink duet Summer Lovin' in a karaoke booth at 2am. They're married now.
Ah, the ol’ [Beardaroo](https://www.reddit.com/r/howto/comments/vq9cc9/how_do_i_get_these_white_marks_off_the_table/iepjtl5/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3)!
[Ben Folds](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2FREkQ7WNk) [begs to differ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgTKY0rbemQ) that this is the _only_ good thing.
"Can totally fap to this"
Ok, but seriously, this always brings a big smile to my face. The fact that the mess in his room did not change despite the outfit changes was particularly impressive.
Eh not really. It became much more “content” orientated by this point. Corporations moved in, and lots of people were making a living from pumping out content. It had a mix of random viral hits, but the chaotic unlawful nature of YouTube was already on the way out by the end of 2010 😔
There’s still plenty of amazing ones now, if not way more. The average video quality on Youtube is really high compared to back then. The problem is that these simple fun videos are almost gone. Plus, nothing seems to truly “go viral” anymore. Videos like this would be seen by everyone using Youtube at the time, but now, I can’t think of any recent Youtube video that literally everyone has seen
This video completely changed my view of the song. Before, I found it a annoying and silly. Now whenever it plays I just cannot help smile and remember this video. - amazing
He just released [Songs in Real Life 6](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yGiShNsafE) not too long ago. And if you follow him on Instagram, you see him smoking a lot of weed. And he just got engaged as well. So, I guess he's doing alright?
Is it weird that I never got sick of this song? Even when it was on every channel and every radio station, and the Olympics did it, and there were marines in Iraq dancing to it. I still rocked out to it.
Oh good now I have an urge to go back on that to see who's fun to talk to....oh wait every time I went on I ended up matched with horney dudes from India.
Oh my god thanks for sharing lol. I forgot this existed and life has been tough recently.
This is going to sound ridiculous, but life has been tough recently, and the laughter and smiles this brought were really appreciated.
These guys did a Chat Roulette fps that was a lot of fun. https://youtu.be/p747PrxmZJ4
That was pretty cool. They all looked like they had a good time.
That was awesome!
This is one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen
Didn’t he also bless us with a rendition of Miley Cyrus’s “wrecking ball?”
[Wrecking Ball](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=W6DmHGYy_xk)
The first guys reaction when he goes naked always gets me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6DmHGYy_xk&t=0h1m55s
The amount of faces I recognize from that video is kinda blowing my mind right now.. I guess the video is just that memorable
Angry Video Gamer vibes from him!
Like the Angry Video Game Nerd?
Yep. I cocked up. Been a while since I've watched him.
What a shitload of fuck!
Also dude's nod when he took the underwear off and girl's reaction when the ball fell lmao
emotional daaamage
Yeah crazy, I mean you're all settled in for a nice evening masturbating at strangers on chatroulette and then this lunatic comes on
Sooooo nothing changes?
/r/noisycomments
Trauma! 😆
To me, it’s the guy with the “Don’t Tread on Me” flag. He was into it.
Overall, people suck. But man, every now and then, we can be beautiful and spread joy.
When the rope breaks I lost it.
I never knew of this until right fucking now. These are the moments when I really love Reddit. Awesome shit! I needed that laugh
Same here. Got a good laugh!
Go to his YouTube channel and watch the songs in real life videos. Classic.
Man both of these videos are infectiously happy. Holy shit I had forgotten about them completely. Grinning ear to ear right now just laughing and loving these. I love when the people sing along. Definitely needed these videos after just seeing a *lot* of “downer” videos and events lately.
He is a national treasure
[This guy made my night](https://www.imgur.com/a/qgA19T6)
Emo “Winter Soldier” vibes
Isn't that a bit redundant?
The fact that it has almost 15% views of the original video is amazing.
That's actually the one I prefer, because of the effort made in creating the wrecking ball.
My first thought when Call Me Maybe started was the Wrecking Ball one. Specifically the rope breaking.
Yep that rope break is just comedy gold
And the nude reveal. Wish i could see it for the first time again.
He also did Let It Go from Frozen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-GqbyKB_HY
The guy at the "slam the door" part definitely stayed for the entire song and acted along.
That dude was a legend! If you ever needed a pick me up you just had to watch them and you can't help but smile and laugh.
He did indeed.
My fave is Katie Perry's I wanna see your peacock. It's his masterpiece
What I find interesting is how the girls with boyfriends go from confused to laughing then partially hide behind their boyfriend while they continue to watch. It's like, "protect me from this dancing guy in a bikini...but don't."
Link?
https://youtu.be/o71kCuva4B4
That is one of the worst songs I’ve ever heard.
Ah but you HAVE heard it!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyR-FYwUpGg this is worse, in the same theme though.
Why did i read this in Johnny Depp voice.
Did I read that right Mr Depp?
You continue to read that right.
You did indeed.
A mega pint?
Isn't happy hour anytime?
This one absolutely kills me every time I watch it. When the damn rope breaks and he falls from the ceiling lololol.
Holy shit, that memory just slapped into my mind. It is him!
Yep. His most recent one that I've seen was from Moana.
His version of “All I Want for Christmas is You” belongs in the Smithsonian. https://m.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=15&v=InYvRyX2Fu4&feature=emb_logo
I absolutely love the number of smiles and those singing along. Absolute joy!!
He left a comment on that video saying he’s recreating it this Christmas?!
He's giving joy to so many people.
[удалено]
Carrot in a box champion forever.
That was certainly a career highlight. Also the time he went seal clubbing.
Can't forget [Nazi Island](https://youtu.be/nEVQWBn20ws)
God that one was brilliant.
Well that's because he didn't know about Miles, but with regards to Hitler, he was on the fence.
Can't forget Rectum of the Year
Ah, and all that money he embezzled from the RNLI.
whats a trolley dash?
There used to be a game show years ago where people could go into a supermarket and fill their trollies up with anything they wanted. They didn’t have to pay for anything but they had to do it quickly. So you’d get people shooting through like lunatics I’m surprised it was popular (or maybe it wasn’t?). It’s quite uninteresting if you think about the low monetary value. Probably just for fun I suppose
They had a show called Supermarket Sweep with the same premise in the US.
> That's a challenging wank. Gotta watch it yet again! Miss that man. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Q9IRpFGgPY
That comment is absolutely savage. Now, since we're on reddit, can any Brit explain what was so funny about the exchange towards the end of that clip?
So one of our illustrious tabloid newspapers used to run a "rear of the year" award, where they'd basically bestow a title of "best arse" on a lucky female celebrity. Rectum of the year is just a play on that, taken to an absurd and implausible extreme!
Oh that's where it is coming from. Thanks.
That's for this explanation. It was kinda funny not understanding the reference, this adds so much to it
It's funny because it's so ridiculous. He just runs with his initial comment of winning the rectum of the year award where he made the judges throw up. The rest isn't actually funny, but because everyone's already laughing, it just continues the funniness, however it isn't actually funny out of context. /RIP Sean
The 'not to be confused with the rear of the year award' is what got me.
That title belongs to Joe Wilkinson.
The rectum of the year stuff?
RIP Sean.
Did not fucking know.
How? Have you been living in a box with a carrot?
Undefeated
Locked in a box with a carrot.
John continues to be thoroughly traumatized
Here's a tweet from Jon to make everyone sad: https://twitter.com/RonJichardson/status/1427935687584649216?t=in_wLslpKDJND1z2w0UBGg&s=19
To be fair, any tweet from Jon Richardson will make everyone sad.
The are not many celebrity deaths that bring me genuine sorrow - Leslie Neilson, and his, genuinely saddened me for days.
Hahahahaha! Sean Lock RIP
This quote will forever live in my brain
“I won’t spit on you when we’re having sex later tonight”
Jimmy's response to that is so genuine. He couldn't stop laughing, "If you're just joining us, Sean has graciously volunteered to not spit on our guest." Fucking classic.
My favourite bits were whenever Sean made Jimmy laugh.
I feel like everyone forgets the brilliantly quick retort by Miles: “Good luck trying it without the spit.” Any of us woulda only thought of that a few days later in the shower
RIP Sean. And yes, this is the best the Internet has to offer.... this was the true dream.
Did he die?
yeah. he had lung cancer, died in august last year.
I didn't know either. Now I'm sad
He did, but he lives in our hearts forever.
His most challenging wank yet
We didn't deserve Sean Locke
I appreciate this
Feels good to see so many dudes vibing with the guy.
exactly my sentiment. its nice to see people just enjoying other people having a good time and making others laugh
I'm a dude who genuinely had fun on chat roulette without doing anything sexual on it.
Yea my buddies and I would get together with a few beers and spend an hour skimming through penis’ to find regular people and play silly things like Pictionary with them for the hell of if
[удалено]
This video has partially restored my hope in humanity
I forget if it was a written article or another video he did, but he said he had to go through a *lot* of people for usable footage and people that would sign a release/give consent.
Iirc that is why he had to take this video down for awhile because one of the people recanted on their consent
Was it the one blurred person?
I believe so
If you can't absolutely rock out to the masterpiece "Call Me Maybe" by the legendary Carly Rae with a mostly nude crossdresser, what are you even doing on Chat Roulette? Isn't that kind of the whole point of it?
I don't listen to much pop, but that song kinda jams
It really is one of the catchiest songs of all time. I might roll my eyes a little when it comes on, but by 20 seconds in I’m dancing and singing along. I cannot resist by the time she gets to “where do you think you’re goin’ baby?!” Lol
I would highly recommend her album Emotion.
She's a Canadian icon, that song rocks.

Drag shows at small bars / venues are the most fun you can have out with your friends, hands down.
Yep, I was basically the only straight dude doing theatre club and stuff at university. All of my very best friends from university are the most extremely prolific sodomites, but god dammit those gays know how to party. Twenty years later I still prefer a night out with them than pretty much anything else. You haven't lived until you've seen a bear and a twink duet Summer Lovin' in a karaoke booth at 2am.

Prolific sodomites sounds like a catchy album name
As a gay man I can confirm.
If I recall, the guy with the blurred face caused the video to be taken down for a while after it was originally released
10 years old, good god.
That’s a good beard for a 10 year old.
Ah, the ol’ [Beardaroo](https://www.reddit.com/r/howto/comments/vq9cc9/how_do_i_get_these_white_marks_off_the_table/iepjtl5/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3)!
Hold my peach fuzz, I'm going in!
Oh my god I haven't seen one of these in YEARS Godspeed, good man 🖖 See you on the other side
Simpler times.
Boobs please guy was bout it bout it
-show boob -still? -did i fuckin stutter
Boobs please guy was as into it as the crab-walk reaction guy was not into it. We've got the two ends of the spectrum here with these two individuals.
Let us not forget our good friend [piano chat improv](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTwJetox_tU)!
Yeah I was gonna say, OP is definitely not the *only* good thing that came of Chat Roulette. Merton was awesome.
Don't forget Ben Folds' version! https://youtu.be/vhJyX08GecU
I still struggle to accept that Merton (OP's video creator) and Ben Folds are different people
Motherfukkin THREES! This girl is serious about her 3s!
Does no one on chat roulette know the difference between "your" and "you're"?
The four guys jamming was wholesome af
[Ben Folds](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2FREkQ7WNk) [begs to differ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgTKY0rbemQ) that this is the _only_ good thing.
been freaking ages since I've seen these. Thanks a ton. Needed that.
I forget that Ben Folds always makes me feel that warm and fuzzy feeling inside 🥰 thank god for nostalgia.
Ben took that playbook from Merton. Love the Ben love the Merton.
Man, I miss Merton
Did the internet ever figure out who he was? Seemed to know Ben Folds
Not that I'm aware of, I've always wondered where he went and if he's doing okay
Real ones watched the Merton video before he blurred out faces of the underage kids.
I recently commented that on his YouTube video! I remember when Firefly girl was unblurred!
Omg that was fucking hilarious 😂
I loved Bobby's in the second, that was a delightful exchange.
Seriously.... Came here to post this if someone had not as it was the greatest thing out there at the time. Also... there at like 6 videos.
Holy fuck this is Amazing!!!
"Higher Quality" -> 240P... those were the good old times.
"Can totally fap to this" Ok, but seriously, this always brings a big smile to my face. The fact that the mess in his room did not change despite the outfit changes was particularly impressive.
>outfit changes Dude has a sizable selection of women's clothing.
My guess would be dude is married to someone with a sizable selection of women's clothing
He literally posted his proposal video pretty recently. [Here it is](https://youtu.be/68DI09rcx4I)
That is living the dream! Be yourself, have fun and FUUUUCK! jk.
Ok that was adorable. I don't know why I clicked expecting it to be happening on chatroulette though.
He rarely makes videos nowadays which is sad.
That dude at 1:09 was really into it haha
You mean the guy that looks like Prince William?

I miss this era of the internet. It was just as wild as the early to mid 2000s but the quality of content went all the way up.
The rampant flash movie/game era was pretty great
Eh not really. It became much more “content” orientated by this point. Corporations moved in, and lots of people were making a living from pumping out content. It had a mix of random viral hits, but the chaotic unlawful nature of YouTube was already on the way out by the end of 2010 😔
There was still plenty of amazing YouTube creators at the time. They didn't die off until years later.
There’s still plenty of amazing ones now, if not way more. The average video quality on Youtube is really high compared to back then. The problem is that these simple fun videos are almost gone.

Steve Kardynal is amazing! Detroit represent!
There was also a "proposal" video really nice back then too called [Chatroulette Love Song](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fU1x8Ll62QE)
Wrecking ball was better imho
This video completely changed my view of the song. Before, I found it a annoying and silly. Now whenever it plays I just cannot help smile and remember this video. - amazing
That was fucking great! The genuine smiles is priceless!!!!!!! ❤️
Anyone know what he’s doing now a days?
[удалено]
He just released [Songs in Real Life 6](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yGiShNsafE) not too long ago. And if you follow him on Instagram, you see him smoking a lot of weed. And he just got engaged as well. So, I guess he's doing alright?

Robert dinkleman. We used to call him the dinks back at uni, always crushed a cold one before midterms
Not surprised to find another friend of dinks on here. Never left the room without doing 30 push-ups. Fucking legend
Yeah man, last I heard the Dinks was killing it as an insurance sales man and high school football coach somewhere down in east Texas
I have no idea who dinks is but he sounds like a badass!
Robert Dinkleman once showed me a video of him making love to my wife, and it was the most beautiful thing I ever saw!
He was a salty chat rouletter that got the video removed off of youtube at the time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVA4K703iUg
