OK, team, circle up. Take a knee. We’re going to go out there today and we’re going to show these guys what we’re made of. THIS IS OUR HOUSE! But before we smash their faces into the dirt, I’d like to give the floor over to Tim “Wild Thang” Lepard, who is going to say a few words:

Goats standing on a truck, check.
Superman theme music, check.
Monkeys riding dogs, check.
Answers to questions no one was asking, check.

I’m pretty sure the movie Unstoppable was about US after hearing THIS INCREDIBLE SPEECH! Make me proud out there. (Thanks for the tip, James.)

  1. I hope that monkey will be in our Rideable Dogs Facebook group.

    Side thought: Monkeys are smarter than 90% of the people who use Facebook.

  2. That guy’s real life is interesting, but his fantasy life must be mind blowing.

  3. I have the sound off and it looks like he is interviewing a monkey, that would be the greatest speech ever

  4. His wife cannot feel great about him telling Illinois that she’s the one. Or about being in a truck covered in goats.

  5. Person: “GET UP THERE LAST GOAT!”
    Goat: “I don’t want to… This is embarrassing.”
    Person: “I can’t tell people I can hear them until you get up on that roof!”
    Goat: “Sigh”

    Its a good video when I can identify with a goat more than anything else.

  6. the alternate ending to “For Love Of The Game” gets me every time.

  7. Dog: “How much are they paying you for this gig?”
    Monkey: “$40 and a bunch of bananas.”
    Dog: “Damn, I got screwed. All I’m getting is $25 dollars and a Tim ‘Wild Thang’ Lepard souvenir t-shirt.”
    Monkey: “Who’s your agent?”
    Dog: “Um… I’m kinda representing myself.”
    Monkey: “There’s your problem. Here. Call my guy. In fact, I know they are casting dogs next week for the Mulligan Family Fun Center commercial. My guy has an in with the casting director”
    Dog: “Perfect. I’ll call him tonight.”
    Monkey: “Glad to help. By the way, I just peed on you.”
    Dog: It’s ok. I ate your bananas back stage.”

  8. That speech totally got my goat.

  9. The greatest speech? Really? I believe you are mistaken:

    “In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. “Mankind.” That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can’t be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it’s fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom… Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution… but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: “We will not go quietly into the night!” We will not vanish without a fight! We’re going to live on! We’re going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!”

    I rest my case.

  10. Those monkeys really needed to be carrying sparklers like lances. What a missed opportunity.

  11. I know I shouldn’t compare myself to others, but this man makes me feel like I have accomplished nothing in life. NOTHING!

  12. Trump / Tim “Wild Thang” Lepard 2012!

  13. This is how Planet of the Apes began.

  14. clear eyes, full hearts, monkey cowboys.

  15. Mr. Chris Nolan’s “infinite raw subconscious” =
    Imposing buildings crumble, Marion Cotillard acts like a real b-word. Inaccessible except via death.

    James Sumner’s “infinite raw subconscious” =
    Monkeys ride dogs, emotionally labile crazypants makes a speech. On YouTube with open comments.

    Suck it, Nolan.

    (Also, whattup other dude from Mississippi).

  16. Hey, he circles the truck around to make sure everyone gets the perfect picture. That’s fan service you just don’t see enough of these days.

  17. Normally, when I see things from the South, I scoff the scoff of a pretentious New Yorker.

    This has opened my eyes to how much I may be missing.

    Today, the South scoffs at me.

  18. I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, little monkeys dressed as cowboys will be able to ride dogs, while goats stand by, on top a truck.
    I have a dream today!
    This is our hope, and this is the faith that I go back to the South with.

  19. “Wild Thang, you make my heart sing.” – The Monkey

  20. Last week my friend tried to set me up with a guy who works at a rodeo and I was all “Pssssh, what about me says I want to date a guy who works at a rodeo?” That was before this video when I was imaging Luke Perry from 8 Seconds. Now seeing this insanitarium, I really wonder what she thinks of me… yikes.

  21. Behind every great man is a monkey riding a dog.

  22. I typed “riding a dog” into Google because I want so desperately to be accepted among you. I hope this image does the trick!

  23. Behind every dog is a monkey. Behind every monkey-riding dog is a man with a dream. Behind every man with a dream of owning dog riding monkeys is a good woman.

  24. We few, we happy few, we band of monkeys riding dogs.

  25. I can NOT pick a favorite moment. My current nominees:

    1) “I can hear you… and they can too.” When you start your speech with not just any G.W. Bush quote, but THE G.W. Bush quote, you’re GOING FOR IT, Rocky Balboa-style. I bet one of the monkeys is named Nine. And the other one is named Eleven.

    2) Four goats, one roof.

    3) When the woman (?) in the flesh-colored chinos gets up and retreats over the bleacher seats like she’s in an assassin competition and just saw a red laser dot appear on her Old Navy t-shirt.

    4) “His goal… was to own a monkey.”

    If I ever get remarried, I’m using this whole speech as my vows.

  26. Haha. I’m sure he gets it all the time. “Rodeo guy with the trained monkeys and hesitant goats, how ever did you get to where you’re at today??”

  27. I keep thinking this guy is this guy:

  28. Theeey took eeerr jeewbbs!!
