The World's Greatest Freakout Contest
Another "great" freakout from the "world's greatest freakout" kid.
Nope! Here's the thing: this kid's videos are obviously fake. We know that, and we been had knowing that for awhile. And these freakouts are OK (although in this latest freakout, he keeps his shirt on the whole time and never once puts a remote control in his butt, which is not the caliber of freakout I have come to expect from him) but I doubt they are the world's greatest. If, as we have established, these freakouts are fake, then surely they should be better. It's one thing to catch a less-than-great freakout on tape when it is real, but if it is fake then the freakout should be extraordinary.
That is why I am inviting you, the Internet, to submit your world's greatest freakouts. I'm sure we can beat this kid. He's barely even trying anymore. The rules after the jump:
- The world's greatest freakout must be in front of another person (a private freakout can be good, but never great).
- Bonus points if the world's greatest freakout occurs in a public place.
- The world's greatest freakout can include swear words or whatever, but should mostly be SFW.
- The freakout should be between two and five minutes long.
- Any destruction of public or private (someone else's) property will result in disqualification. No crimes!
Upload your World's Greatest Freakout videos to YouTube, and submit them at tips@videogum.com. The winner will receive a brand new microwave.
*Fine Print: I'm sure that there is a bunch of legal stuff that Corbin Bernsen would advise me to include here, but I don't know what it is, so needless to say the terms and conditions of the contest can be changed at anytime by Videogum, or whatever, and maybe there won't even be a contest if no one submits any videos. Or what if all the videos submitted are bad and no one deserves a microwave? But let's assume that this is a real contest, you guys. Let's paint, exercise, and freakout!!

Score = 8
I'm out. The best I can do is show me @ work trying NOT to freak out. Or pretend to be looking at a wall calendar when I read this site and LOL so hard I have tears coming out of my eyes and I'm clearly shaking from LOLing as quietly as possible. Sorry internet, you win. Again.
Score = 8
Don't worry, I'm not gonna do what you all think I'm gonna do, which is, you know, FREAK OUT!

These fish have manners. These fish... have manners.

It's a good thing the Supreme Court struck down sodomy laws in 2003, otherwise some of us Gummies couldn't legally shove things like remote controls in our anals during our staged freakouts. Which would be a real bummer!
Score = 10
When does this contest end?
Score = 2
I know this is fake, but I really sympathize with the kid. I likely have the world's worst microwave. It takes five minutes to heat up anything, and even then it only heats up the plate, and uses that as minimal conduction for the actual food. So while the food doesn't look the least bit hot, you reach in to check it and are greeted with third degree burns from a plate that has laughed in the face of physics by refusing to melt and/or explode.
Oh, and did I mention that the thing DOESN'T FUCKING TURN OFF WHEN YOU OPEN THE DOOR? That's right, I've had this thing for eighteen months and when the cancer eats up my insides, my landlord will receive the bill.
Score = 16
Settle down, Chris Brown.
Microwaves are non-ionizing, so they shouldn't cause cancer. They just excite water molecules. You may boil your face off, but you'll be cancer free!
Score = 10
Thanks, Professor Microwaves. I've had some personal issues (my grandma died), so is it cool if I turn in my paper on the GE Revolution of the 1970's next week? When are your office hours again (I lost my syllabus)? Can I catch you after your 'Origins of the Icebox' class?
Score = 15
What kind of class would i have if i let everyone dawdle and putz on their assignments for any old namby pamby excuse?
NO CLASS AT ALL, THAT'S WHAT KIND OF CLASS.
Score = 8
There's a simple solution to your microwave problem, outlined above.
Score = 5
Is Corbin Bernsen now Videogum's official mascot/sidekick? I hope so. Everything's coming up Bernsen for the first time in about 15 years! Corbinbernsengum! Yes!
Score = 6
original recipe for success:
- Have the braces kid introduce the situation
- Show the freak out kid being yelly
- Have the freak out kid be terrible at freaking out.
- Braces kid sets down camera...
TWIST!
- Braces kid comes on screen and freaks out at the freak out kid, who is still doing a poor job at freaking out. Hilarity ensue.
In the end it was the braces kid who really freaked out on his "older brother" for being a poor actor. Microwave actually worked all along.
Score = 3
How much money does this family have to just ruin things?

I'm sorry but we had a winner a few years ago with this lady http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbVw7entkxg
And am I the only person who is so damn grateful to live in an age of the internet? Cause in the dark ages of the early 90's, I had to watch glorious clips like this sullied with the awful America's Funniest Home Videos fake voice overs.
Score = 5
No kid, that wasn't great. In fact, it was really lame. This "greatest freak out ever" moment could have been redeemed with an Office Space moment, but no. Instead, he just threw it down and walked back inside to sulk in his orange pjs.
Score = 0
