The Eliminator: Classic YouTube Viral Videos
Pick which one you would eliminate
Finally The Eliminator HAS COME BACK TO BARSTOOL SPORTS!!! Ever since news broke that Osama bin-Laden had Charlie Bit Me on his computer (Terrorist pieces of shit: Just like us!), I’ve gone down a rabbit hole of classic YouTube viral videos that I won’t be able to get out of until at least Sunday.
Which got me thinking about what is the best viral video of all-time? I quickly realized that would be like picking your favorite child. We can’t even agree which Halloween candy is the best, how are we going to pick through some of the greatest gems ever? So instead I create an old fashioned Eliminator of four of the best viral videos ever to grace YouTube. Clearly there are another 1,000+ videos that could take the places of these, but these are the ones I chose. If you have other ones you would like to choose, start your own blog and make on there.
Sorry, that was ugly.
For those that don’t know how The Elminator works, you have four choices, and you choose which of the four you would eliminate. Pretty basic stuff.
Today’s contestants are Charlie Bit Me, David At The Dentist, The Mobile Alabama Leprechaun, and Star Wars kid. For those that need a refresher or just want to burn some time off their Friday with the classics.
First up we have Charlie Bit Me.
I wasn’t sure how this video would hold up after years, but it aged like a fine wine. The sound of Charlie’s chomp in the beginning, the thick British accent, Charlie going in for another bite at the end. All tens.
Next is David After The Dentist.
A video full of emotional highs and lows and screams that has imitators even today.
In my humble opinion, the Mobile Leprechaun is the best video of all-time. Well actually the movie Die Hard is technically the best video of all-time. But the Mobile Leprechaun is a cloooose 2nd.
And finally we have the Star Wars Kid. A young Trent long before his first blog or viewing of the greatest trilogy to ever grace the silver screen.
Four absolute gems. But one has to go. Make your vote which one gets eliminated below:
