'We're All Going To Miss Those Horny Little F*** Lizards': John Oliver Pays Tribute To Russia's Sex Geckos

'Last Week Tonight With John Oliver' launched the hashtag campaign #getthosegeckos in a bid to get Russia's five space geckos home safely.



Sadly, it was too little, too late - for alas, the 'sex geckos' perished. How did John Oliver react to the news? With suitable anger... and a beautiful version of A Great Big World's 'Say Something'.

Dirty Dancing's ‘(I've Had) The Time Of My Life' Scene Without The Music: The Best Musicless Music Video Yet?

He's done Village People's 'Y.M.C.A.', Mick Jagger and David Bowie's 'Dancing In The Street' - and more.



But now, Mario Wienerroither has moved away from musicless music videos to bring us his first musicless film clip.



The result is Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey's memorable final dance scene from 'Dirty Dancing'... now featuring heavy breathing, girlish giggling, squeaky shoes and more. In fact, it's worth watching for Swayze's stage leap alone.



And if you now want to watch the original, well... take it away, Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes!

Cricket Crowd Do The World's Slowest Mexican Wave At The Oval

Mexican waves aren't very British. They're more... well, Mexican.



So bravo, the terribly British crowd watching this game between Surrey and Hampshire at the Oval. For they took it upon themselves to do a Mexican wave - in the most leisurely, English fashion.



And just to prove that it's not footage slowed down, here are some clips which show cricketers moving (at normal speed) in the foreground:







Cricket fans, we applaud you. Very, very slowly. http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

The Face of Jesus Christ Optical Illusion

Good morning to all of you, and Happy Monday! The weekend is over, and now it is time to get back to work! There is one thought that might make all of you pause for a moment, and that is the fact that Christmas is only a little over three months away, and while some people love the idea of shopping and trees, there are some people that prefer to celebrate the fact that it is the birth of Jesus Christ. Today’s optical illusion is all about the face of Jesus Christ, but it is done in such a way that makes you see that the face is made up of small scenes. For anyone that does not know about the life of Jesus, the picture is comprised of different scenes from the life of Jesus Christ, and it is quite an interesting optical illusion.
