If not look for it to be coming on and watch it.It is one of the most consistently funny shows I have ever seen.It is a show of different video clips put together under a show theme.Like one was called "I Fought The Law" and all the clips were people fighting with the police or running or something having to do with capture.There was another one called "Born Losers" that was nothing but people failing at stunts.The one I watched this morning was called "You Wanna See Pain" and it had a bunch of things that just make you cringe to see like a guy getting his arm snapped while in a Arm Wrestling Competition and a girls boyfriend shoots at a wheel rim and the bullet flies back and hits her while she is taping it.Its not so much the video's that are funny its the guy that narrates the show he is unforgiving and a TRUE smartass.If you havent seen it it is a must do.HILARIOUS.

    I watch it every Saturday night. Very funny show. I would say that 90% of the people that get hurt are doing things they should not be doing in the first place. One exception being the girl that caught a ricochet bullet with her face, just at the wrong place at the wrong time. It's hilarous to see the expressions on peoples faces when they realize they are in big trouble because of something stupid they have tried. I thought it was funny when that guy decided it would be fun to jump into the pool from the top of the house, and landed on his back on the cement. Broke him up pretty good. And the guy who tied a bicycle to a car so he could go 60 mph hit a ramp and jump to the top of a building. His front tire just touched the edge of the roof and he comes tumbling down. The fellow who decided it would be nice to rapel 50 ft down a rock, went over without his rope and had to have several pins put in his face to hold everything together after landing face first in a rock pile. Very funny stuff.

    With all due respect, you guys are sick. Look carefully back over
    what you wrote. People getting hurt all the time, and isn't it
    funny?! Guy had his face smashed to pieces, and isn't it hilarious?!

    I've watched the show before and sometimes it's a bit entertaining,
    but for the most part it's appalling. I saw one episode that had a tape of a man being beaten at a football game, and the "highlight" of the clip was a thug pulling a knife and stabbing him. Hey, let's show that again in slow motion!

    How about this, E. Williams and knifeuser: I'm come over to
    your homes with my video camera. E. Williams, I'll take
    your daughter and break her legs with a baseball bat. knifeuser,
    I'll take your mother, put her in a car without her seatbelt on,
    and smash it into a bridge piling. I'll catch it all on videotape
    and you can sit back and roar with laughter.

    Hey .223 in case you didnt read my post all the way through I said its not really the videos that are funny its the guy narrating the show that is funny.I also said that some of the video's just make you cringe to see them.So no need for comparison involving my daughter,Im not one of the *' who tries to dead lift 800 pounds and my legs break under the pressure or what have you.Some of the video's are rough but some are funny.Lighten up unless you were one of the idiots on the show.It is ok to laugh at others misfortune sometimes especially when everybody is ok afterwards.

    The europeans have worst shows , in one this man is driving a nail with a nail gun to a table wile pushing the top to fit, he slips and
    nails his * to the edge of the top with a 4 inch nail,in pain he tumbles with the top wood piece like 3 inches thick still nailed to his love "tool" .... surely life changed for him for a lonnngggg
    time ...GOD! that had to hurt.....at that point his wife dropped the camera to the floor ... next footage was at the hospital the doctors trying to pull the nail out off the wood piece to free his "piece"
    its head was too wide to slide the thing out (Wide head nail)antique
    finishing ,the europeans are not as politically ashamed as Us they even joked at the "salami" nailed to the table showing all the medical procedure deffinitely causing ones tool to shrink and disappear from sight (were is the magnifying glass and the tweezers?) i have to take a leak !

    In real life experience once I fell on a screwdriver and literaly "screwed' my wrist from side to side JC style so you bet
    I know how a cruxifiction hurts ..... anyway DUNG happens! and most of it being tragic is also funny... Got my hand truly "screwed"...
    I told my wife showing her the screwdriver side to side across my wrist,joking was the only thing that kept me from goin into shock!
    I waited 10 minutes for pressure coagulation and pulled it out aplied pressure and sealed it with cyanoacrylate instant suture,sometimes
    it still hurts with temperature changes but that is purely engramic.

    So you say it's alright to laugh
    at other's misfortunes provided "everybody is OK afterwards"
    but then the instance you choose to illustrate your
    point is a man trying to deadlift 800 pounds and breaking
    his legs. Is the man with broken legs OK?

    It seems like you're trying to say that if people do activities
    like auto racing, rock climbing, etc., then we can enjoy it when
    they get hurt. Well, let's think about that. Let's say that
    you're there at the range, trying for a great score on some
    long range shooting, and a double charge handload blows the
    gun up in your face. You've got hunks of brass and metal
    in your eyes and there's blood everywhere. Well, E. Williams,
    sounds like it's time for all the on lookers to start knee
    slapping and rolling around holding their sides. Look, he
    lost both his eyes! What a hoot! Hah, hah, hah!

    .223believer:
    Sheesh man,, so lets quit watching Nascar because sometimes people get hurt, and professional sports like football, why would we ever find entertainment in someone getting hurt playing football, "OOhh quick change the channel!" And the nightly news, where they show people getting hurt, this is horrible. Oh and on the National Geographic, they show wildebeast getting eaten by mean alligators crossing a river!!
    Lets keep our T.V.s on network prime time, so we can learn more about how everybody is a homosexual, and that being a homo is normal, like it or not!!
    Every day people are getting hurt, a lot of times they ask for it by doing stupid acts, and sometimes this will be caught on tape.
    The "Dude" guy announcer is funny.
    And with all due respect, I am not sick, I feel just fine, thought I was catching a summer cold but shook it off.

    "Just my opinion."
