Ben & Matt Behind The Scenes
This is some hilarious behind the scenes footage from a video shoot we did Tuesday for a LaZBoy ad. Thanks to Ron Gerson and his team for doing everything other than wearing a costume.

When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. And when life gives you a cow instead of a horse, you do like a 15 y/o Farmer’s Daughter in Germany whose father wouldn't buy her the horse she wanted so she managed to forge on with her riding dreams anyhow by training one of the family cows to not only ride, but jump obstacles as well. Awwwwwww. A Mason, Ohio man was arrested yesterday after he took it upon himself to bark back at a barking police dog despite defending himself by saying, ‘the dog started it.’ Oh, and it case you didn’t put it together already, it’s apparently illegal to bark at K-9s.A Virginia Elementary School teacher learned the hard way yesterday that when organizing a career day assembly for a school of 9-11 year olds, it may be bad form to include a ‘plastic surgeon’ exhibit complete with hands on ‘squeeze the implants’ table. In what may go down as the best stupid criminal story ever, we present the North Carolina man who learned yesterday that when participating in a home invasion robbery, you should never take your shirt off. If you do, don’t leave it at the scene… Particularly if the shirt has a picture of you from one of your prior arrest mug shots on it and the words “Making Money is My Thang”… Apparently getting caught is your ‘thang’.

An Atlanta, GA man learned the hard way yesterday that if a police officer asks you about the marijuana on your person, DO NOT, for any reason, respond with ‘That’s how I make my money, man.’ Congratulations, your misdemeanor possession charge just got upgraded to felony! A Washington man, convinced he was sharing a Days Inn hotel room with Satan, does what any rational roommate of Satan would do… He set all the blankets on fire. A Mesa, Arizona man helps us pen rule # 4378 of home burglary. While making entry through a bedroom window, never fall in and get trapped in the laundry basket… If the guy you’re trying to rob has to help untangle you, you’re probably going straight to jail.Authorities in Russia have politely asked that everyone at the Post Office please make sure your personal vibrators are all turned off BEFORE you call the bomb squad and evacuate several city blocks.

So a Malaysian home owner found out yesterday that the only thing worse than having your house robbed, is being robbed of your house. As in the entire thing stolen... Floor to ceiling and everything in between. Police are on the lookout for a dude with a really, really big backpack. A South Greensburg, PA man learned the hard way yesterday that if you’re hiding in a ceiling crawl space from police who are after you for stealing a car… Resist the urge to light up a cigarette when they’re directly below you… They might catch a whiff. At some point in life there might be a good reason to take your tractor and bulldoze your neighbor’s home, his 6 vehicles, his farm equipment, propane tanks and electrical and phone lines… However, an $80 debt probably won’t ever be that reason. (Colorado Springs, CO) A couple in Kentucky learned the hard way that while it may be okay for one parent to pass out while on a family outing to Wendy’s, it’s not okay for both parents to pass out, as your toddler will eventually get bored and get someone’s attention.

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before; Woman suspects her husband is cheating, travels across the country to enact revenge; Wears a diaper. Okay, no diaper and she didn’t try to kill her, but she did steal her luggage and cut holes in the crotch of every ‘lower half’ garment she owned. (Chicago, IL) A Florida man is suing a paramedic who allegedly stole his severed foot after a car accident. Medic claims the accuser is really putting his foot in his mouth with these allegations and his case doesn’t have a leg to stand on…. Okay, that sucked. If anyone is looking for a female with the ability to hide $170,000 in cash in her underwear, she’s been discovered in Queens, NY. Oh, but don’t try to walk through the x-ray machines. They may notice the bulge. If the first thing a police officer asks you after pulling you over is, “How much cash you got on you right now?” You may want to question his legitimacy and consider driving away… quickly.

If you’ve finally been tracked down and arrested after making an astonishing 18,000 911 prank calls since last August, going to jail may be just what you need to kick start that life outside your mother’s basement. (East Los Angeles, CA) In other 911 abuse, a Scottish dog owner dialed 911 over the weekend to report that a stranger had broken wind on his little pooch. A 28 y/o Columbus, Ohio man learned the hard way that the first thing you do when police arrive after crashing your car should NOT be screaming out loud, ‘I’m High on Cocaine!” A Naperville, Illinois man reminds us all that just because you’ve had a 2 year online relationship with someone you’ve never met, doesn’t mean you should send ‘her’ 200,000 dollars. Especially if she wants chunks sent to different banks in Nigeria, Malaysia, England and the US.

A Michigan man found out yesterday that if you attempt to rob a 7-11 with a bandana over your face while proclaiming, “The King Don’t Pay For Cigarettes!”, don’t be surprised when ‘the king’ collects a 50,000 volt tasing from his humble civil servants. 18 y/o Key West resident Julio Lot learned the hard way that when mom tells you to eat that sandwich in the kitchen and not the living room, you move you're a$$ before mama drops the hammer on you… literally… She hit him with a hammer. As if going to the dentist wasn’t bad enough, the UK introduces us to the Devil Dentist this morning. He’s mean, rough and has a habit of swearing at and flipping off his patients, mocking their teeth and, of course, burping and farting while they’re stuck in the chair. No wonder Brits have bad teeth. For the second day in a row, we have an Ice Cream Truck Arrest in the HTFH. This one comes to us from Florida, of course, in the form of a DUIce Cream. Ba dump bump cha!

Two things not to say while being pulled over:
If you’ve been pulled over for speeding, don’t tell them, ‘It’s okay, I was just making a youtube video.” Especially when that ‘video’ you’re making will be seized as evidence. (Salem, OR) When being pulled over for having a suspended license, telling the officer you’ve been drinking for the past ‘two or three days’ is definitely not advised. (Destin, Florida) I think we can all agree that there’s nothing wrong with being a male nurse and, in fact, it’s a very respectable career. However, if you’re a male nurse AND you get the crap beat out of you by a dude with only one arm and NO legs… Well, you can just drop that man-card off right over here, sir. (Northern Territory, Australia) A Malaysian woman demonstrated over the weekend that there’s nothing better for fending off a hungry bangle tiger then a few good whacks with the ol’ household soup ladle. Of course, it helps when the beast is distracted by chewing on your husband… but still… next time you’re taking a walk in the jungle, pack your soup ladle.

A Florida man’s arrest yesterday have finally blown the lid off of the dark underbelly of America…. Illegal cockroach smuggling. Which, as it turns out, is big business in Florida. And these aren’t Tony Montana’s cockroaches either… we’re talking 2 inchers. A 19 y/o Boulder, CO man learned the hard way yesterday that biting, strangling and hitting your 21 y/o girlfriend with a skateboard is not appropriate behavior, despite the fact that she refused to buy you a beer. Get a fake ID like everyone else, kid. While a 14 y/o working hard to raise money for his ailing grandmother is commendable, doing so by selling cocaine to your classmates is probably not a good idea. (Ft. Walton Beach, Florida) The story of a British soldier overseas calling his pregnant girlfriend back at home and leaving a sappy message on her voicemail proposing marriage is making the rounds this morning just in time for valentines day. Unfortunately for him, it’s only a story because he left the message on some strangers voicemail on accident. Ooops! Don’t hold your breathe for that response, soldier!

A Tennessee woman demonstrated yesterday that 1) 35 minutes is way too long to have to wait for police to arrive after calling 911 to report someone is breaking into your home, and 2) The Shark model Vacuum doubles as a fantastic weapon if you need to beat someone down for, say, 35 minutes. A UK couple and first time parents were shocked earlier this week when their baby boy was born with a fully formed set of front teeth. To no one’s surprise, the mother will forgo breastfeeding and skip right to the bottle… bottle feeding, that is. A Maine man learned the hard way yesterday that just because you have a fancy $5000 self contained marijuana growing ‘Bloom Box’, doesn’t mean you should take it on walks around the block. If you’re on mission to set your boyfriends twig and berries on fire, first of all, you shouldn’t do that… But if you’re hell bent, you probably shouldn’t stop by his mom’s house first and tell her what you’re up to. Then again, it is Florida.

In recently released police squad car video, a New England man found out the hard way that yes, you can get a DUI while driving around on a scissor lift and if you do get caught, your next move should not be to raise the lift as high as it can go and dare police to come get you. Epic video on the BM Blog. A Quebec, Canada man is suing the makers of a certain ‘unit enlarger’ after he claims he used the device for over 500 hours with no results. Wait, you mean they don’t really work?!?! If you’ve ever thought of using the ol’ ‘Officer, I’m just taking this lonely goat to a date to meet another lonely goat’ excuse for why you’re driving around drunk with a goat in the backseat of the car, a man in Poland tried it and, shockingly, it didn’t work.And just because you just saw The Town and Ben Afleck made robbing a bank look super easy, doesn’t mean you should get your friends together and try it… Remember, it’s the movies. Thank you Florida.

Typically the holidays are a hotbed of activity for TIOJ sightings, but for one reason or another, reports are down this year. And while this isn’t exactly the same nor does it have that Christmas charm, the TIODV (The image of Darth Vader) in some redwood trees will have to do. A convenience store robber in Lake Mary, Florida learned the hard way over the weekend that if you’re going to attempt a robbery by threatening the clerk with gasoline and a match, be sure he doesn’t have a loaded gun first as ‘point and shoot’ is a much quicker series of motions then attempting to douse and ignite. If you’ve got all your drunk pals over, it’s always important to remind your guests that 911 is never, ever the correct number to use when attempting to buy a bag of weed. (Victoria, BC, Canada)A South Florida woman, upset her husband came home late and went straight to bed, decided to employ a new tactic to wake him up. She set his crotch on fire. And, to no ones surprise, it worked.
