  • igneouz, on 12/10/2007, -39/+12WHAT THE *****?!
    • bitcloud, on 12/10/2007, -0/+17He's got a good attitude...
    • capiCrimm, on 12/10/2007, -2/+17the op is misleading, he calls it the brain wave, but it's his jaw muscle moving. Go look in a mirror and clench your jaw and you'll see the same thing in your head(if you have short enough hair).

      His is probably just more pronounced because of the accident.
      • dclowd9901, on 12/10/2007, -0/+1I'm more amazed by the fact that he doesn't seem to have a care in the world while half his head looks like it has a flailing fish in it.
  • metapop, on 12/10/2007, -10/+351that's probably the dumbest super-power ever
    • SuperWinner, on 12/10/2007, -0/+45Magnetic colon is a close second...
      • cfuse, on 12/10/2007, -0/+13If you can't think of a situation where being able to fire bullets out your ass would be useful then you lack imagination.
        • DemonWasp, on 12/10/2007, -0/+8I subscribe to a school of thought where any weapon that has to be loaded by shoving iron pellets up your ass isn't a good weapon.
        • GliTCH82, on 12/10/2007, -0/+5If your super power involves putting things in your asshole just imagine what kind of sick twisted ***** your arch nemesis would come up with just to put an end to your anal powers.
      • CedEx, on 12/10/2007, -0/+0With a magnetic colon, you'd never have to worry about being iron deficiency anemic.
    • thebadkitty, on 12/10/2007, -1/+58I bet Aqua Man feels real good about himself right about now.
      • qbelek2, on 12/10/2007, -13/+2Thats Sea Man
        • Yodwinder, on 12/10/2007, -2/+1I believe you mean Semen! ^.^
        • metapop, on 12/10/2007, -0/+1yodwinder- he threw you a softball, and that's what you came up with?
    • Darkhacker, on 12/10/2007, -19/+5No, the dumbest super-power is Meg Griffin's ability to grow her fingernails.
      • thebadkitty, on 12/10/2007, -0/+8You probably weren't saying that about Deathstrike from Xmen.
      • Darkhacker, on 12/10/2007, -3/+1Either Family Guy is no longer a meme here or nobody saw that episode.
    • littlemarcho, on 12/10/2007, -4/+24Not even close:
      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pz4f_e02RFM
      • danwallace, on 12/10/2007, -0/+9Amusing as that may be, I can say with all honesty that I'd rather be able to make broken pens work again than be able to visibly move my brain.
    • loganhid, on 12/10/2007, -1/+1superpower?
  • WordsnCollision, on 12/10/2007, -4/+46Thanks for sharing, now i'm traumatized too
    • SuperWinner, on 12/10/2007, -6/+8I just puked a little in my mouth.
    • Darkhacker, on 12/10/2007, -3/+21Do yourself a favor, do *not* watch BME Pain Olympics. If you think this video is bad... oh man.
      • Manuelmty, on 12/10/2007, -6/+4i see what you did there
      • colto, on 12/10/2007, -0/+5Oh my god! I just looked up that video to see what the hell it was since people kept saying it was so bad. I can honestly say that was the WORST thing I have ever seen in my life. I need to go find a happy place now.
        • antdude, on 12/10/2007, -0/+3Worse than 2 girls and 1 cup?
        • CeeJayDK, on 12/10/2007, -0/+3Dugg up in sympathy.
        • Darkhacker, on 12/10/2007, -0/+3I guess it's true what they say. If you tell someone not to do something they'll do it anyway. Curiosity just made you its bitch.
      • Chakat, on 12/10/2007, -0/+4I guess I'm just jaded, but the BME pain olympics doesn't really bug me. Course, then again, I did ask my friend to make sure she gets pics when she flies to Thailand for her sex change...
        • zombiewantbrain, on 12/10/2007, -1/+1Make sure you submit those to digg. I thank you.
      • aduzik, on 12/10/2007, -0/+1Michael Buckley, the overly-excitable gay dude of the What the Buck Show, does a great reaction video to that.
        http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sluaw3EVdFQ
  • mjfetner, on 12/10/2007, -1/+237That not his brain moving, it's his temporalis muscle. Still looks cool though.
    • StevenJV, on 12/10/2007, -0/+7hope you can move yours, chewing would be hard

      grip your teeth, feel above your eye, thats it
  • jimmiss, on 12/10/2007, -2/+206Man I'd hope to have his attitude if that ever happened to me.
    • hexx54, on 12/10/2007, -0/+38seriously, he seems so well spirited and he looks like a happy teen even after everything
    • itsradBrad, on 12/10/2007, -1/+10Compassionate and refreshing comment. If I could give you more diggs I would.
  • Warden72, on 12/10/2007, -3/+102If that happened to me, all I'd ask is that I'd be comfortable going around saying, "That really was a Hattori Hanzo sword."
    • yaddayaddayoda, on 12/10/2007, -1/+66All I have to say is:
      He better be REAL careful if there is an outbreak of zombies.
  • georgemason01, on 12/10/2007, -3/+34Is that Krang in there? I always wondered what happened to him after Shredder was defeated.
    • Jerryskid02, on 12/10/2007, -1/+2I hear he's working retail somewhere in the Midwest. Just a rumor though.
  • drunkentoad, on 12/10/2007, -2/+132I love how the advertising below the video says "Get a free Pinky and the Brain ringtone"
    • Tyrghast, on 12/10/2007, -0/+16that funny, mine says "Brain Damage and Brain Injury Lawyers!!1!!!11$"
    • seanc6610, on 12/10/2007, -11/+9Here comes the "Wait. there's ads on the internet?! AdBlockPlus FTW!@!1" comment.
      • trevah, on 12/10/2007, -8/+6Wait, there's ads on the internet?

        OMG AdBlockPlus FTW LOLZA!!!!
      • MacGyver2210, on 12/10/2007, -1/+14I didn't see any, thanks to ABP, but I didn't feel the need to publicize it until I read your comment. JWD.

        AdBlockPlus FTW!!!!111one
        • WebWorker, on 12/10/2007, -1/+1JWD... Jehovah Witness Discussion Forums!!
  • thebadkitty, on 12/10/2007, -3/+70I bet that's real popular with the ladies.
    • capiCrimm, on 12/10/2007, -2/+23he apparently didn't have brain damage, though, as he's not commenting on digg.
  • MadOgre, on 12/10/2007, -5/+68And the doctors DIDN'T put in plates, because? WTF, Over!?
    • siszam, on 12/10/2007, -0/+4I guess sometimes they can't or don't need to. When I worked in health care I took care of an older gentleman who had a bad head injury from a motorcycle wreck. He had several pieces of his skull missing and had to wear a soft, sort of quilted helmet all the time. It's a lot better than a dirt nap.
    • lintmonkey, on 12/10/2007, -0/+10Because if they did, then he couldn't do the brain wave. It was their gift to him.
  • warrenterr, on 12/10/2007, -16/+3if he doesn't wear a helmet while riding a bike, his head might pop like a ripe cherry tomato.
  • drmangrum, on 12/10/2007, -16/+2That's just not right.
  • theone2Punch, on 12/10/2007, -1/+105why doesn't he have a prosthetic there to protect his brain?
    • EuphopiaB, on 12/10/2007, -0/+34Maybe there are still surgeries planned or they are waiting for a point where they know they won't have to do anything more invasive.
      I really don't have any idea. I think if they can though they will. Seems like a pretty dangerous condition to be in. Someone drops an apple on your head and you end up partially brain dead =x
    • AmICoolNow, on 12/10/2007, -4/+34My bad. Wrong reply. Bury me.
  • fef560, on 12/10/2007, -14/+2This is gross
  • kalleanka, on 12/10/2007, -4/+40Dude, it's not his brain!
    You got to be retarded to think someone can do that to his brain.
  • ps2pers0n, on 12/10/2007, -3/+5Read some of the comments on there... people can be so ***** up.
  • Akraz, on 12/10/2007, -3/+5............ I have no real explanation for what I just saw.
    • clickwir, on 12/10/2007, -0/+2I do. It's a muscle. Chomp down on your own teeth while feeling the side of your head. Same thing, his is just much more visible.
  • Vincent21212, on 12/10/2007, -0/+27The real story is the Turkish baby born with its brain outside of its skull on the menu to the right
    • sgtpppr, on 12/10/2007, -1/+35I went and took a look at that....good lord. This is a prime example of going too far keeping someone alive. The description says the family has had problems getting medical care for the child because of a lack of specialists. I wish people would consider quality of life and mercy when determining if it's possible to keep someone alive. Just because you CAN keep someone alive doesn't always mean you should. There is no way that child will live more than a few months like that even after the world's greatest specialists and millions of dollars have been used to try and keep him/her alive.
      • joot2112, on 12/10/2007, -2/+14After watching that, I have to agree. No one knows what level of suffering the child might be experiencing. Even if that were my own child -- or ESPECIALLY if that were my own child -- I would say, please stop intervening; let the child have peace. A line has to be drawn somewhere -- it would be hard to specify where, but that case is clearly over that line.
    • RuthlessPirate, on 12/10/2007, -1/+19That thing was not meant to live. There is no possible way that could have any sort of the slightest normal life.
      • Urusai, on 12/10/2007, -1/+14Older cultures had the sense to kill infants born with gross defects. Just because science can sustain a nonviable organism indefinitely doesn't mean we should.
      • frieddonuts, on 12/10/2007, -0/+13Parental love does not follow the laws of rationality.
    • onionoino, on 12/10/2007, -3/+11That was horrifying, more so that they are keeping the kid alive. Science is going to ruin our gene pool.
      • thewfirestarter, on 12/10/2007, -0/+6While keeping the kid alive is wrong IMO, I can't see it damaging the gene pool unless someone has sex with it, which is probably fairly unlikely.
      • Scynet, on 12/10/2007, -0/+3Actually it's not really damaging the gene pool, because the healthy people aren't going anywhere. The pool just becomes larger with additional unhealthy genes, which *does* mean that the average healthiness drops, but the situation corrects itself if something catastrophic happens. Say, a meteor impact, a war or a pandemy. During this time, people with defects or people who need medicine to live will be left behind and die, only healthy ones survive, and the whole pool is cleaned in one sweep. It's not like you're going to see this somehow take over healthy people.

        Minor competition does happen if these disabled people have children with normal counterparts, but with so many of us here, the effect is very small. In fact, seeing how disabilities in some part of us will boost our other parts (those autistic superbrainers with insane skills at maths or memory), I'd say this small versatility will just improve our capabilities.

    • crushfan, on 12/10/2007, -1/+1Take a look at this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PyEqLuLw0gI [Warning: YOU CAN'T UNSEE and you wouldn't want to see, but you're curious)
  • Darkhacker, on 12/10/2007, -1/+7I'm not a doctor, but I would have thought that not having a skull would cause some severe brain damage if he experiences any sudden movements or god forbid, he hits his head on something.
  • Oea420, on 12/10/2007, -1/+13the most hilarious thing is people are actually thinking that it's his -brain-.

    Think about that for a second, folks.
  • ajimmykid, on 12/10/2007, -13/+64BRAINS DO NOT HAVE MUSCLES. BRAINS ARE NOT ON THE SIDE OF YOUR HEAD. THAT IS ANOTHER PART OF HIS HEAD.
    • TomTruelle, on 12/10/2007, -2/+48OK BUDDY
    • specialK16, on 12/10/2007, -2/+33OK WE GOT IT!!!!
    • Ventolin, on 12/10/2007, -0/+33RARRWRWRARWRRR!!
    • Munkey106, on 12/10/2007, -2/+18THANKS FOR YELLING!!!! NOW I KNOW THAT THAT IS ANOTHER PART OF HIS HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    • peacebyanymeans, on 12/10/2007, -1/+19WHAT? SPEAK UP!
    • wibambau, on 12/10/2007, -6/+4BEST USE OF ALL CAPS EVAR!!!

      boy I'd sure love to see a stop sign written in lower case one day, maybe one day they'll do it to a yield sign at least.
    • EmileVictor, on 12/10/2007, -1/+15RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE
    • unearth, on 12/10/2007, -2/+16LOUUUD NOOOISES!
    • Jirachi, on 12/10/2007, -3/+12STOP YELLING I CAN'T HEAR THE GRASS GROW!
    • Drull, on 12/10/2007, -5/+13***** the riaa.
      • Shorties, on 12/10/2007, -2/+5Wow conflict!!! I want to digg you down for not using caps but then again you said ***** the RIAA which makes me want to digg you up... Decisions, decisions...
    • acitcratnA, on 12/10/2007, -1/+8I AM GOING TO SHOUT THEATER IN A CROWDED FIRE NOW.
    • rsklnkv, on 12/10/2007, -1/+5YOU CAN USE MY OFFICE
    • anononon, on 12/10/2007, -1/+7CAPSLOCK IS ONLY CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL AT *CHAN
    • Hypermarkalan, on 12/10/2007, -3/+4I DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE YELLING ABOUT!
      LOUD NOISES!!!
  • MasterThief117, on 12/10/2007, -2/+13I hope they give him metal plates eventually, because is very dangerous to live like that.
  • ufia, on 12/10/2007, -5/+28You really should have given us a heads up before posting that brain teaser.
  • Swarms, on 12/10/2007, -1/+21Hey, buddy, what's on your mind? Nothing?
  • RuthlessPirate, on 12/10/2007, -7/+1That ***** be freaky.
  • bgcialis, on 12/10/2007, -9/+3Hrm... Temporal muscle moving, I'm impressed...
  • gregm11, on 12/10/2007, -2/+59He seems pretty open minded about his condition.
  • LucasVB, on 12/10/2007, -6/+3he must be a hit with the chicks.
  • kidvitacus, on 12/10/2007, -10/+4If he sneezes really hard, do you think it could leak out his ear? That would be cool.
    • Easyoffbam, on 12/10/2007, -0/+7It would be, if it happened to you.
  • CNFD, on 12/10/2007, -3/+17I know that kid. He got injured in a long-boarding accident accident in Arizona a couple months ago. The video was taken yesterday before his schools football championship game. His school won, but the sad part is, is that he used to play for the football team but since his accident he could only watch from the sidelines. And that interviewer is Brad Cesmat from news Channel 3 in Arizona
    • p337r, on 12/10/2007, -3/+21Superfluous information boy! Go! Wikipedia requires your assistance!
    • Swarms, on 12/10/2007, -7/+1Did you have some kind of injury? You seem seem to have a stutter stutter.
  • idean360, on 12/10/2007, -1/+7its not as gross as i thought, weak stomachs dont worry, the video is tame.
  • ZombieBite, on 12/10/2007, -1/+9An ad inquired if I was "hunting for brain damage". Yes. Yes I was.
  • tacotruck08, on 12/10/2007, -4/+2That's amazing he can still talk normally.
    • clickwir, on 12/10/2007, -0/+4Well if his brain was uninjured.... then there's nothing really amazing about his ability to talk.
    • RockSlice, on 12/10/2007, -0/+2As opposed to some people, who can't use punctuation.
  • Vorin, on 12/10/2007, -1/+5Your face can take a lot of punishment. That's good to know.
    There's a lot about my face you don't know. Perhaps you and it can get better acquainted over a dinner.
  • TripcodeMel, on 12/10/2007, -3/+0D:
  • dexedrine, on 12/10/2007, -4/+1"weak stomachs dont worry, the video is tame."

    Tame compared to what?? I've seen some stuff these last several weeks that have made me question my own limits...and think I can pass on this one. *shudders*
  • darksydxx, on 12/10/2007, -1/+3dude what about steel plates ?
    • acitcratnA, on 12/10/2007, -3/+2THIS WAS ALREADY MENTIONED SEVERAL TIMES.
      I AM SHOUTING BECAUSE YOU OBVIOUSLY COULDN'T SEE IT BEFORE.

      YOU'RE WELCOME.
    • metapop, on 12/10/2007, -0/+1and become vulnerable to magneto? i don't think so.
  • TeMerc, on 12/10/2007, -0/+1Talk about a 'throbbing headache'....Go Big Guy Matt!!
  • KarlH, on 12/10/2007, -1/+0Just wait until he gets old and that brain starts to sag.
  • ssdisa, on 12/10/2007, -1/+0That's amazing.
  • tk0680, on 12/10/2007, -0/+3Surely a metal replacement skull is in order, then he can dare people to headbutt him. I'd prefer that over a squishy head.
  • andrewlevy, on 12/10/2007, -3/+3keep Zidane away from this kid
  • robotto, on 12/10/2007, -0/+1He isn't moving his brain, but the facial muscles move the fluid underneath the skin that covers the brain.
  • PieterOpie, on 12/10/2007, -5/+0OH BIG DEAL!!! That's not so special. I can do that with almost every part of my body. Some bits jiggle all on their own without me even trying. And I not am damaged in brain much too........
  • cooldude1561, on 12/10/2007, -3/+1maybe he's just getting a"head" of himself
  • chrismgtis, on 12/10/2007, -3/+2None of you have mentioned how bad and scary it would be to be this guy. Anyone could so easily kill you. You have to avoid fights at all costs and be always afraid of a small car accident or tripping over something. How do you sleep without worrying about laying on your head the wrong way?
    • chrismgtis, on 12/10/2007, -0/+2I get dugg down for saying this? Well someone is an idiot.
  • verkon, on 12/10/2007, -4/+3Will it blend?
  • sniurkst, on 12/10/2007, -0/+1I don't know if i want to see this. Wait..wait..wait.. nope, I don't.
  • DAllenJ, on 12/10/2007, -0/+0It's his temporalis muscle, which normally attaches and is held stable by the side of the skull. If there's no bone there, there's nothing to hold the muscle steady...
  • MerryMortician, on 12/10/2007, -0/+1im not sure if he is going to be on Heroes next season with that. (except he will have something sylar won't steal)
