  • Now this next video has got some rough language,

  • but I think you might give these guys a break when you see why.

  • These two oil workers in North Dakota hid in their truck

  • as they watch this tornado hit their base camp.

  • -Dude, where do we go?

  • We've got nowhere to go.

  • [MUSIC]

  • ALEX: Potter's confident about Whisper's safety.

  • Her harnesses are rated on the same standards

  • as human harnesses, and look at those cute little googles.

  • I'm torn because this is obviously super awesome,

  • but is there any way the dog is actually OK with this?

  • What do you guys think?

  • JACOB SOBOROFF: Banksy was named Person

  • of the Year at the Webby Awards last week.

  • And rather than accept the award in person

  • he chose to maintain his anonymity, shockingly.

  • This was the video he submitted in lieu

  • of making an appearance, as he was honored for his first month

  • long residency on the streets of New York last October.

  • -On day 13 in Central Park, the artist

  • set up a stall selling original paintings

  • with a street value of half a million dollars.

  • But without any of the art world hype, the results,

  • a total take of $420.

  • JACOB SOBOROFF: If you guys haven't

  • seen all of the amazing videos he created

  • during his pop-up exhibition, we have a link for you

  • in the description.

  • CARLY: New roommates can be tough,

  • like hyena laughing, anti-social gamers who

  • clutter your kitchen with their dirty dishes.

  • You know who you are.

  • Which is why Scott Rogowsky's approach to finding a good one

  • is completely brilliant.

  • Scott hosts a late night talk show

  • at the Pitt Theatre in New York.

  • So when he needed a roommate, he decide to interview candidates

  • the only way he knew how.

  • People, do you want a terrible roommate?

  • Go watch this and prepare yourselves.

  • JACOB SOBOROFF: Listen, my wife is in the fashion industry,

  • so I know that lookbooks are a great way

  • to find that perfect floral romper that we have all

  • been dreaming about.

  • But what if you want that romper to have a license to kill?

  • James Bond is the subject of Whitney Milam's most

  • recent video.

  • [SPY MUSIC]

  • you don't think it through too much.

  • -Do you get out much?

  • -I'm Fluffy.

  • I really don't get out too much, you know?

  • -You should.

  • It would do wonders for your muscles, you know,

  • your shoulders, and working your buttocks, you know?

  • -Hey, I'm not really comfortable with you pawing around

  • down there.

  • BEN: It was picked up by a bunch of different outlets.

  • It made it even onto Ellen DeGeneres.

  • on this video and really see how much

  • it brightened people's day.

  • That video that you're thinking of making, go ahead and do it,

  • don't think it through, and give somebody a laugh.
