Boston, MA, and someplace where silly gooses live in Russia – With all due respect to the video with those Hindus being swept off a mountainside, this is the best video of your entire life. You must absolutely watch this all the way to the finish. At the time, it probably seemed like a good idea to harness their inner Jackie Chan by getting inside a completely insulated and padded bubble ball. Unfortunately (but fortunately), there are other forces of nature at work, such as gravity, the elements, and of course, my favorite, pure comedy.
No spoilers, but at what point do you think those guys in the bubble were like “Is it just me or does it feel like we’ve been rolling for an extra long time?”
(Thanks to Curley for the video)
Holy shit!
They must have known after 45 seconds that shit was about to get real.
Those Russian bastards fell of the Earth!
of:off
gdi
it’s not all that funny when you find out that one person died and the other is in critical condition.
Oh it’s still funny.
Just like Ivan Drago only the strongest can survive in mother Russia comrade.
lol. I agree. Sorry he died, but not sorry for laughing at things that I find funny.
p.s. I also have the ability to disassociate myself from death, thanks to our friends in the modern day media!
I agree with Mike. Sorry. The video is, on its’ own, very funny (to some people, obviously.) The fact that we/you later learn that someone died is unfortunate, but it doesn’t take back the fact it was funny the first time around (or the 2nd or 3rd.)
Hope that other guy turns out alright. His Zorbing days are over.
Anonymous…you are a dickhead.
Ya can’t change funny just because someone died. Christ, people die every day. LOL
HOLLA.
(Respect?)
I agree, Mike. Whatever your first reaction to that video (or anything else) is completely natural. So, sorry the guy died, but not sorry I laughed at something that is still funny to watch even right now.
This is the new Russian landing module. People pay millions to be part of this space program. By the way, in the manual it says to take a left at the rock outcropping.
“take a left”
Honestly, those guys couldn’t see shit inside that bubble ball. One minute they’re in the sunlight, and the next minute they’re in the shadow of a mountain (and the next minute they’re being airlifted?)
On the plus side (on the plus side!), that moment when they went airborne* might’ve been pretty cool.

god damn hamsters

They lived!
Well, one of them did.
One of them lived!

HAHA…I love the internet. Commenters are the best. I wish I thought of that one.
Hey Rob, thanks for the link. We’re too dumb to notice when shit isn’t working.
