Let’s revisit some classics:

Mark A. Hicks, aka Afro Ninja

These sweet moves led to infamy, and a brief movie career?

Aleksey Vayner, aka IvyGate


The worst video resume ever, or at least the worst to ever hit the web and immediately go viral, doing exactly the opposite for Vayner’s public profile of what he’d intended.

Andrew Meyer, aka “Don’t Tase Me, Bro”

Getting dragged out of a crowded room, then getting tased and spawning a zietgeisty catch phrase isn’t a bad way to make a name for yourself. Except oh yeah, it’s a terrible way to make a name for yourself.

Gary Brolsma , aka “Numa Numa”

This can be seen as kind of inspiring, or deeply embarrassing, depending on who you ask. If they’re from Earth, they will definitely see it as embarrassing. Aliens are easily inspired by our pathetic human rituals.

Ghyslain Raza, “Star Wars Kid”

Even one of the guys who claims that originally posted this to Kazaa (back in the pre-Flash video sharing site days), raze7ds, admits he ruined this kid’s life. Where is he now?
