Obviously a wind up, he'll probably make some money out of it. :)

This kid obviously was aiming to have his video go viral and be known worldwide, bad thing is, it's stupid, lame and not funny.

Did not thought there'd be anything more irritating than the 9000 video, but this one does.

If others find this "comical" then more power to them.

And a lot of people on the internet lap that up like cats at a bowl of milk. Just look at "Nyan Cat", "trololol" or those "arrow to the knee" jokes, none of which are funny at all.

Nyan Cat and Trololol as something to listen to, it's enjoyable, but funny? Personally, no.

"but then I took an arrow to the knee" got old pretty fast.

I don't know if this is going to go as viral as people say it will. It causes way to much cringing for enough people to like. I know this is just my opinion but its not really like other memes where its just funny b/c people think it is or it being catchy. This is its so stupid that some people think its funny.

I found "Nyan Cat" and "trololol" mildly amusing at first, but after that, I didn't even make a grin. And I never found the "arrow to the knee" jokes funny. Maybe it's because I've never played Skyrim.

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.
Definitely don't show her this, then.

Yeah I was gonna bring that video up, but I wasn't quick enough. :(

Anyhow this new video is clearly a false transformation. There's obviously no blond hair, glowing, cyan eyes, or even muscle to show he'd been training. I feel bad for this kid, really, I mean how the hell can he expect to fight someone like Freeza with such a low battle power (believing you have a high battle power /=/ having a high battle power).

At least he's trying. I'd like to see anyone here do better!

Youtube quote is win. I don't mean to offend, but I laughed more at the comment than at the video itself. Anyways, the video should not really go viral. It isn't worth it. It was just embarrassing!

Yep, embarrassing. The kid probably has no respect for himself knowing what will happen once the video's up online.

Black Towel 3 ftw!

Views, likes/dislikes and comments all growing rapidly means he'll be getting a decent amount of money from YouTube, I suppose.

Making yourself ridiculous... a way to making a lot of money.
