Super Saiyans are Real - Dragon Ball Video Goes Viral

[DerekPadula]

Hey guys, check out this hilariously awesome video of a kid trying to go Super Saiyan on YouTube.

It's going viral across the world and has been trending on Twitter for the last 4 hours!

I wrote a detailed article about it called Super Saiyans are Real, and will update it as events unfold.

Absolutely awesome. People all over the globe are talking about how much they loved Dragon Ball when they were kids. And they're discussing the logistics and rationale of what it actually takes to really go Super Saiyan.

Dragon Ball is STILL relevant.

So cool.

LOL I saw this earlier today, and just a few hours later the video got like 10,000 more views.. crazy.

Anyway, I kind of did a facepalm watching him try to power up.. so awkward. Funny video though.

[ET93]

That video is nothing less than strange lol.

[sangofe]

That guy has some points when he says we limit ourselves with our minds, but he's taking it way too far and comes out like a lunatic.

[Son Geeko]

Can't tell if serious, or just joking around....

Yea, I found myself cringing mostly. It was almost too embarrassing to watch, but I kept looking in hope of seeing some cool effect..was totally wrong.

[Piccolo Daimao]

Yeah, the video was quite cringeworthy to watch, and he's probably half-joking, but I understand the point behind it. He's got balls, though, especially considering how much it's spread now. Could it even become...a new meme?!

This shit really pissed me off. Not the video itself, but why people are freaking out over it on how "funny" it is. My girlfriends roommates were annoying the shit out of me with it. Why did this go viral? Tons of videos like this are all over the internet. Also, I'm trying to get my girlfriend into Dragon Ball, and this isn't helping.

Because a lot of people on the internet are your lowest-common-denominator dummies with poor senses of humour, and a lot of subpar or average videos like this become viral, regardless of their quality.

That video had tears in my eyes I was laughing so hard I bet some poor little old lady could hear him from her house and is like lol I thought it was funny when he turned on Goku's Super Saiyan 3 theme. haha I'd buy this kid lunch

[JulieYBM]

The sad part is he'll probably monetize the video and make a couple o' bucks off it.

[DarkGokuZ]

It killed me when he took his shirt off.
Awesome video.

[samuraix123]

Awesome video.

I thought he was going to rip it off when he grabbed it

[NitroEX]

I watched it when it only had 300 something views and it made me cringe so hard. The part where he puts on Bruce Falconer music had me face palming myself to the next dimension.

[peter291]

I found it annoying at first but now it makes me laugh . I like when he turns the music on

[samuraix123]

When he turned the music on you knew this shit just got real

So basically...you're complaining about other people's sense of humor? I thought this was pretty freaking hilarious, personally. Of course something as comically awkward and cringeworthy as this is gonna go viral.

Same here. I don't think I've ever cringed so hard in my life. I almost couldn't even watch it

Your 'Cell' icon looked disgruntled like you until I realised it was smiling....




YOU ARE CEEEEELLLLL

But yeah I agree, it was almost embarrassing to watch. As if I was watching porn or something (Which I don't). Possibly because it is Dragonball Z and there is a lot of screaming.
I laughed in embarrassment.

[Metalwario64]

Well, at first, I thought "This isn't funny. I don't know why it's getting popular when I've heard so many stories of everyone trying to turn Super Saiyan when they were kids, so why would this be somehow special."

Then he started grunting, and I thought it was kinda funny, but not enough to make me laugh, but I was grinning a bit.

Then he starts screaming at the top of his lungs, sounding like he's dying and he keeps rolling his eyes into the back of his head as the music's building up to the end. That's the part I start cracking up at.

[samuraix123]

I haven't heard anyone say how funny it was when he throws his head back like when Goku goes Super Saiyan for the first time LOL!
