Happy Halloween

thumbnail icon: Happy Halloween

OK. It's Halloween. We did it. Yay!

There are plenty of ways to celebrate the holiday. Some people (children) go trick-or-treating. Some people get together and watch scary movies. Some people go to costume parties at their friend's house. Some people go to costume parties at a bar. Some people ignore Halloween altogether. Is that it? Did I name all of the ways in which people celebrate?

NO I DID NOT. Because there is the final expression of enthusiasm, the one that is obviously most dear to our heartsgum. And that is dressing up in your costume and jumping on a trampoline.

The 5 best, in scientific order, after the jump. (Get it? Jump? BOO!)

5. Jumping on a Trampoline in a Fairy Costume

4. Jumping on a Trampoline in an Elephant Costume

3. Jumping on a Trampoline in a Skeleton Costume

2. Jumping on a Trampoline in a Hot Dog Costume

1. Michael Meyers on a Trampoline

That last video is hilarious. I heard that in the original script for Halloween, a bunch of children kick a soccer ball at Michael Meyers's face and yell "have fun, Michael Meyers!" Or did I? SPOOOOOOOKY.

Gabe,
just wanted to say, thanks. I don't know if you really liked the pool guy scene or not but I am the guy in it and thanks for showing it to people. I even have a silly Hollywood story about that scene. That is all. Have a great Halloween.

PS: I know I left it on the wrong page. I just wanted to stay current.

You really need to consider changing the "p" in your name to a "c". I have a lot of other branding ideas I'd love to pitch to you. I think with the right image consultant you could eventually be famous and rich enough to fulfill every Youtube Trampoline Accident Celebrity's dreams of living in a gold-plated trampoline house, sipping Cristal out of diamond-studded unicorn skulls.

Okay, the kid working the camera in the elephant video has EXACTLY the same laugh as Sam Weir! Weird! BOO!
