It may seem like I spend every waking moment of my life on the internet.  This assumption is actually true.

It may also seem like I enjoy unconventional videos.  Videos about weird and crazy things that don’t make sense.  This is not really true but sometimes it is.

So, I have decided to share with you some of the stranger videos I have found on YouTube.  You may have seen some of them before, but I hope after watching them you will have discovered at least one new reason to weep for humanity.

Number One:  How to grill steak without a grill

This is was put up by the user masaokis, and is just one in a long line of videos that offer helpful everyday tips.  He does have some witty banter during the course of the video, but your real focus as a viewer should be put on the absolutely disgusting state of his apartment.  I watched all eleven minutes of this with my face scrunched in disbelief.   About halfway through I started laughing at how ridiculous it was.  He literally lives in a dumpster.  It is a dumpster with two bedrooms and a kitchen.

His other videos are just as good and I highly recommend them.

Number Two:  The biggest advantage of the electric cigarette

Don’t ask me how I discovered this because I honestly do not remember.

This guy knew how to create a work of art.  I think it is the culmination of the choice of music, his singing, the shaving cream on his face, and his reaction after inhaling the nicotine that makes this thing WORK.  I love it.

Number Three:  peanut butter man

I found this one when I was searching for peanut butter-related videos for my article on George Washington Carver.

I don’t know if this is some sex fetish I don’t know about, but something about it is oddly alluring.  I assume there was a cameraman otherwise he would have gotten peanut butter all over his camera.  And those chomping noises he’s making…AH.

Number Four:  Iced Tea:  That Magical Elixir

This video was actually deleted a few months ago, but some die hard fans were able to retrieve it from the Internet Recycle Bin and put it back up.

It’s a simple premise.  The guy shows you all how to make a good iced tea.  But..errr….just watch it.

Number Five:  Weird Cartoon gives insight about reality

This video is differs from the others in that it is actually really dark and creepy and weird.  Watch it with the lights off or something.  I stumbled across this some time ago and it has never left my thoughts.  Claymation by itself is creepy…you don’t have to bring demons into it!

Youtube Profiles that deserve some recognition for being strange

When I posted the videos A Fork in the Eye and We Tied Up Nathan a couple years ago, I didn’t realize it would attract people from underground S&M and choking societies.  I have gotten numerous emails and video comments discussing how hot the choking in my videos is.  Of course I was creeped out, but I also delved into this underground world of strangeness to investigate.  Here are some of the stranger YouTube profiles I’ve encountered.

stranglingme

I found this guy through another guy named “PleaseBeQuiet” who friended me on YouTube after watching A Fork in the Eye.  Unfortunately, PleaseBeQuiet deleted his profile (which consisted of nothing but movie clips of women getting strangled).  Stranglingme, luckily, follows suit, and his videos consist of men wearing leather gloves strangling each other.

conradcigarspipes

This guy is awesome.  He has over 6,500 videos of him smoking a pipe.

He rarely says anything, and when he does, it’s just the name of the video.  All he does is smoke tobacco pipes!  You should peruse the collection if you have time.

AlexanderRodchenko

This is the most puzzling YouTube channel I’ve ever come across.  This guy has uploaded more that 24,000 videos, which has to be some sort of record.

The thing is, the videos aren’t really videos.  They are just four minutes of solid color with a tone buzzing in the background.

Make sure your speakers aren’t on very loud.

Every single video is like this.

That is Logical Conclusion #26504.  Personally I like Logical Conclusion #13007 better.

I figured it has to be a robot doing all of this nonsense.  No person could do this.  I hope.
