When last week’s episode ended with Kagiso’s crew walking out on him in the midst of one of his little tirades, I was convinced this week’s episode would take us back to the look & feel of Episode 1. I was expecting silly physical humour. Boy was I wrong. The second last episode of Kagiso’s […]
Not to be outdone by Cape Town local, Dec’io Lourenc’o in the huge balls department, Sverre Liliequist backflipped on to an avalanche while skiing down the face of a mountain. Just because, you know.

Apparently […]

Okay, look, it isn’t very funny to poke fun at hipsters anymore, seeing as the term is roughly 40 years old already. Apart from that, it has been done to death. You can’t even poke fun at hipsters in an ironic, self-reflexive way anymore. So this video is really late to the party, and should […]
You don’t need to pit a car against a Vietnam-era attack helicopter in a speed test. But Top Gear Korea (South) did just that. Except that the helicopter did something unexpected, by delivering its pilot into the ground with great gusto.

At first glance this coud be mistaken for a karaoke backing video. Alas, it’s North Korean propaganda using Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and “We Are the World” to show the U.S. under attack. Yes, we know. It’s too awesome. Of course, ‘We are the World’ was written by Lionel Richie and Michael Jackson. North Korea […]
