I believe our moms told us it’s mean to laugh when someone trips and falls. Sorry Mom.

10. Joe Jonas of the Jonas Brothers

He is said to have actually cut his hand on the broken glass with this fall. Imagine if he fell face first.

9. Bono

Bono’s human after all.

8. Michelle Williams of Destiny’s Child

The professionalism of Beyoncé and Kelly are so apparent on their faces you can bet Michelle would have been stage roadkill had she blocked their path when she fell.

7. Robbie Williams

I think everyone here will applaud had this been a face plant.

6. Axl Rose

Axl probably thought he was gonna go knockin’ on heaven’s door after that nasty fall.

5. Bret Michaels

The Tony Awards is lucky Michaels decided not to sue them after getting clotheslined by their stage.

4. Steven Tyler

“Love In An Elevator / Livin’ it up when I’m goin’ down / Love In An Elevator / Lovin’ it up till I hit the ground”. Except he took the scenic route, not the elevator.

3. Demi Lovato

This kid seems to have a habit of falling down onstage. This is just one of them.

2. Shakira

This clip don’t lie. That was a face plant, and that’s gotta hurt.

1. Beyoncé

Count on Beyoncé to take headbanging to a whole new level.

Had the driver of the black SUV not slammed the brakes, this would have been an entirely different story.

I’d say the kid’s got a damn good guardian angel watching over him. Then again, that same guardian angel should be fired for letting that stroller fall off the platform in the first place.

This is a case where “slippery when wet” actually does some good.

Moronic reporter who decides to do his thing in the middle of an airfield repeatedly says “F___ me!” at the end of this video. You could almost hear the pilot of that plane that nearly lopped his big head off say, “yep, just did”.

Idiot.

Idiots.

Proof that pickup trucks, sand dunes and idiots riding in the back without anything that would keep them from flying off don’t mix.

Lesson of the day: don’t fire a .50 cal Barrett sniper rifle round into a metal plate at such close range. The rifle’s designed to hit targets more than a mile away for crying out loud.

It’s kinda comical how the motorcycle guy almost immediately gets up after getting tagged hard and starts mouthing off.

Now that is one slippery dude.

I’m not sure if he fastened his seatbelt or not, but if he didn’t, then not doing so just saved his life.

But with the invention of film during the 20th century, man has become capable of capturing, recording and preserving some of the most shocking moments in human history, political assassinations included. And accessing and viewing them have become all the easier with the advent of the Internet and YouTube, where we and future generations can satisfy our morbid curiosities and watch these assassinations caught on camera over and over again.

Warning: disturbing images

1. King Alexander I

The assassination of Alexander I, the first king of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, was one of the first assassinations captured on film. He was shot by Vlado Chernozemski as he was being driven in a car through the streets of Marseilles, France on October 9, 1934. Also killed on that fateful day were French Foreign Minister Louis Barthou, the King’s chauffeur and Chernozemski himself.

2. Inejiro Asanuma

On October 12, 1960, a 17-year-old extreme rightist named Otoya Yamaguchi fatally stabbed Inejiro Asanuma, head of the Japanese Socialist Party, as he was delivering a live televised speech.

3. John F. Kennedy

This is the infamous film shot by Abraham Zapruder of the JFK assassination, widely regarded as the most complete (and gruesome) visual record of the event.

4. Lee Harvey Oswald

Lee Harvey Oswald, purported assassin of President John F. Kennedy, was shot and killed on live TV by Jack Ruby on November 24, 1968, two days after the death of the American president. He was being transferred to the Dallas County Jail at the time of the murder.

5. Robert F. Kennedy

Robert F. Kennedy, younger brother of slain US President John F, Kennedy, was assassinated on June 5, 1968 by Sirhan Sirhan, a 24-year-old Palestinian in the kitchen of the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles, just a day after winning the California primary in his bid for the Democratic party presidential nomination.

6. Anwar Al-Sadat

President Anwar Al-Sadat of Egypt was assassinated by soldiers who were taking part in an annual victory parade in Cairo on October 6, 1981. Eleven other people were killed in the brazen attack, including the Cuban ambassador, while Vice President Hosni Mubarak and 27 others suffered wounds.

7. Benigno Aquino Jr.

Top Philippine opposition leader Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr. was killed by a single gunshot wound to the head on August 21, 1983 as he walked down the steps of the airplane that took him home to the Philippines after years of exile in the United States. Rolando Galman, Aquino’s alleged assassin, was also shot dead by airport security men on the tarmac of the then-Manila International Airport. The claim that Galman was the shooter, however, has since been widely discredited, and several of Aquino’s escorts, all military men, have been convicted of the murder and are now serving lengthy jail terms.

8. Yitzhak Rabin

Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was leaving a mass rally in Tel Aviv drumming up support for the Oslo Accords, the first direct, face-to-face agreement between Israelis and Palestinians, when Yigal Amir, a radical right-wing Orthodox Jew opposed to the agreement, shot him with a semi-automatic pistol. He died 40 minutes later at a nearby hospital.

9. Benazir Bhutto

There has been a debate on what really killed Benazir Bhutto, former Prime minister of Pakistan, on December 27, 2007. The video above, however, seems to show that she was shot by a gunman as she was standing through the sunroof of her bulletproof car waving to supporters, before a suicide bomber detonated explosives near the vehicle and killed approximately 20 more people.

While it seems that other bigotries have at the very least been toned down, in public at least, poking fun at or perpetuating stereotypes of gay people is still very much around. Movies do it, TV shows do it, and so do these homophobic commercials that will definitely make Isaiah Washington proud.

1. Fernet Cinzano

A collection of gay stereotypes, punctuated by a guy sucking on a piece of ice in his mouth and asking the rest of the guys, “You like?”.

2. Snickers

Admittedly, speedwalking or racewalking is a sport that should be scrapped from the Olympics simply because it looks silly. But Mr. T’s assertion that the speedwalker is “a disgrace to the man race” who should “run like a real man” suggests that the hapless guy must be gay because of his swishing hips, and deserves to be shot with a Snickers-firing cannon.

3. Snickers (again)

Two butch guys accidentally kiss while eating a Snickers bar, recoil in disgust, and proceed to rip off their own chest hairs as a show of manliness. So ripping one’s chest hairs off their hands makes one less gay?

4. Dodge Caliber

A fairy punishes a butch guy for making fun of her by turning him and his dog into stereotypical nancies. Some punishment.

5. WKD Original Vodka

A recurring theme of WKD commercials is having a group of buddies embarrassing one of their number in various situations. This time, they chose to embarrass a friend whose girlfriend is coming over to their pad by prancing around dressed in nothing but tiny aprons.

6. LadyService Liquid Soap

Want to avoid being raped by large, predatory homosexuals in prison? Use liquid soap instead.

7. Lynx Body Spray

This ad was actually doing fine until the 36th second, when the mayor is at the mercy of a burly bodyguard who suddenly blows him a kiss, part of the Pied Piper’s revenge against him for shortchanging him of his wages. Again, something gay as punishment.

8. OMO Laundry Detergent

If a guy shows up in karate class wearing a pink kimono, then he’s supposed to be in for a lot of bullying.

9. Polaroid

Hyper-feminine men really are predatory, if this Polaroid commercial is to be taken at face value.

10. Panasonic Sonic Max Shavers

Fists fly and necks get wrung the moment some prisoner touches another guy’s freshly shaved cheek and says “beauuutifuul”. Homophobic violence at its finest.

11. Reebok

The guy in this ad would rather die of snakebite than be mistaken for a gay person.

A series of ads for Milwaukee’s Best Light portrays men who exhibit even the slightest hint of stereotypical “gayness” as nothing more than guys who deserve nothing less than being crushed by a giant can of Milwaukee’s Best Light.

Not on their TV sets they won’t, but on their computers, well, that’s an entirely different story. In today’s world of YouTube and all those other video sites, these commercials are now readily available online for everyone to see. Here are 50 of those commercials. With the exception of some, most of them can be quite embarrassing.

1. Kiefer Sutherland

Even in a cheesy commercial such as this one for Calorie Mate, Jack Bauer still takes himself waaay too seriously.

2. John Travolta

Travolta dancing with synchronized swimmers’ legs in the foreground pushing some canned beverage doesn’t make the least bit of sense, but then again, so do many commercials in this list.

3. Arnold Schwarzenegger

Whoever gets to face the Governator in his inevitable run for the White House in the future would do well to remind voters of this image of Arnold laughing maniacally while standing on top of a pile of gold coins.

4. Hulk Hogan

It’s official: Hogan’s tough “Hulkster” persona is one big fraud.

5. Nicolas Cage

Cage will accept ANY role, however embarrassing.

6. Jodie Foster

She’s absolutely beautiful in this one.

7. Andy Warhol

Real artists are supposed to be self-righteous creatures who balk at the idea of selling out, aren’t they? Well, here’s an exception.

8. Cameron Diaz

For a company in a country where the idea of celebrating Christmas is buying a cake, SoftBank sure spent a fortune on having a Hollywood A-lister like Diaz appear in a Christmas-themed ad.

9. George Clooney

What’s with the idea of having Clooney say “let’s go” when he’s all alone in the car? What did he think he was driving, the Batmobile?

10. George Lucas

To see why Lucas belongs behind a camera, watch this ad. Then you’ll see the inspiration behind Hayden Christensen’s wooden acting in the last two Star Wars prequels.

11. Ben Stiller

Could Ben Stiller get any more pathetic? Apparently, the answer to that is a resounding yes.

12. Bruce Willis

Somehow, I get the feeling that while we laugh at how ridiculous Willis is in this crazy ad, he’s saying more than just the “move you” catchphrase at the end, like he’s actually replacing the first four-letter word with another one that starts with an F.

13. Leonardo DiCaprio

I don’t know which is more annoying: the sound of Leo whooping it up like he did in Titanic, or the grating “You Are My Sunshine” in the soundtrack.

14. Michael Jackson

Here’s Michael promoting Suzuki scooters back when he still looked human.

15. James Coburn

This ad tells us we can fight off bad guys just like Coburn did by smoking cancer sticks. That’s truth in advertising for you.

16. Paul Newman

Much weirder than Newman eating a flower in this commercial is the idea of him ever actually owning one of those UC Fuji credit cards.

17. Britney Spears

Let’s look at the bright side: at least the Japanese company that makes GG Tea had enough sense to get Britney to appear in this ad back when she still looked hot.

18. Andy Garcia

One of the more dignified commercials in this list.

19. Jeff Goldblum

Goldblum’s geeky persona is perfect for this product.

20. Kevin Costner

“When I first began directing, they all said it was impossible”, Costner says in this coffee ad. Same could be said of his acting.

21. Sheena Easton

What’s up with the silhouettes behind her?

22. Harrison Ford

Ford walks like he’s about to crap in his towel towards the end.

23. Dennis Hopper

The sight of Hopper playing with a rubber ducky in the tub reportedly boosted sales of Tsumura bath products. Go figure.

24. Michael J. Fox

Michael J. Fox is no stranger to cheesy work, but this one ad for some canned tea just takes the cake.

25. Madonna

Never mind the awkward samurai sword swinging and the terrible background music. Madonna saying “I’m pure” is quite the winner.

26. Jennifer Love Hewitt

So does this mean she understands Japanese?

27. Kyle Maclachlan

Now that was the most serious facial expression I’ve ever seen Kyle Maclachlan make.

28. Paul Reubens (as Pee-wee Herman)

Trust the Japanese to make Pee-wee Herman seem creepier than usual.

29. Ray Charles

Good thing they didn’t have Ray Charles driving the Honda while blurting out, “It’s a Miracle”.

30. Winona Ryder

With the way her Hollywood career is going, Winona’s gonna need all the Japanese commercial gigs she can get.

31. Gwyneth Paltrow

Here’s Gwyneth appearing in a Korean commercial for a clothing company called Bean Pole. How fitting.

32. Charles Bronson

The sound of bullets whizzing past as Bronson practically bathes himself in Mandom never fails to crack me up.

33. Ashley Judd

Is it me, or did that fire hydrant just turn into a throbbing and pumping double-headed penis the moment Ashley Judd sat on it?

34. Brad Pitt

So drinking Roots coffee makes one brave and strong enough to push company property down a flight of stairs. Wish it also makes one look like Brad Pitt.

35. Steven Seagal

At least he actually speaks Japanese, and didn’t sound ridiculous while saying his lines.

36. Charlie Sheen

Charlie Sheen, he who has slept with 5,000 gorgeous women, in bed with a big girl? Now that’s taking suspension of disbelief a bit too far.

37. Sylvester Stallone

A ham actor pushing ham. Absolutely perfect.

38. Meg Ryan

Somehow, Meg Ryan manages to still look adorable even when mouthing off silly lines like “Navi Navi Dingo”.

39. Mariah Carey

Nescafe hires one of the most famous singers in the world, and all it ever does is make Mariah act like a bimbo in a weird-ass commercial.

40. Sharon Stone

One might think this is some sort of an audition piece for the Catwoman movie, what with the way she gingerly walks on ledges in this commercial. She got the villain part in that movie, by the way

41. Eddie Murphy

Eddie Murphy has always been a douche. Here’s proof.

42. Mel Gibson

What the hell does “A Song For You” have anything to do with Mel Gibson and Asahi beer?

43. Stevie Wonder

Just love the way Stevie yells “Fire”.

44. Tom Berenger

As with all other cigarette commercials, this one makes absolutely no sense at all.

One brand that has consistently hired beautiful Hollywood faces over the years is Lux. Here are some of their TV spots:

45. Anne Hathaway

46. Natalie Portman

47. Jennifer Lopez

48. Jennifer Connelly

49. Lara Flynn Boyle

50. Rachael Leigh Cook

There is, however, no doubt that when pros and wannabes alike make mistakes, they’re in for a world of hurt, like the people in the videos below certainly have realized themselves. No “my Parkour is better than your free running” debate, just pure, unadulterated and mind-numbing pain.

1. No sound needed to tell us that one’s gotta hurt.

2. That tree can’t talk, but it certainly is laughing inside

3. Someone forgot to put a “slippery when wet” sign on the grass

4. There’s a reason why the phrase “do not try this at home” was coined.

5. No idea how this guy is doing now, but certainly it’s nothing good.

6. Were it not for his feet getting caught and the subsequent faceplant, that would have been a 10.

7. Dude successfully demonstrates how to break your neck in 2 seconds.

8. Now that’s what I call a chest-pounding experience.

9. This kid gives new meaning to the saying “look before you leap”.

10. It’s amazing how this kid chose to break his fall with his face instead of his hands.

10. Dead Like Me

This one’s actually hilarious, but the idea that death is literally all around us–no, scratch that—one of us, and could creep up on us at any given moment, can be a bit unsettling.

9. Twin Peaks

The ominous bass line of its haunting theme coupled with idyllic images of a quiet little town pretty much sums up what this show is all about, that even the seemingly most innocent of places could hide some deep, dark secrets underneath.

8. Lost

Short, simple, and undoubtedly as eerie as any 10-second opening sequence comprising nothing more than big bold letters coming at you could get.

7. Millennium

That silhouette of a woman hunching over in apparent defeat at the beginning is disturbing as hell.

6. Carnivale

Tarot cards have always been the stuff of creepiness for many, and this sequence further amps the creep factor by mixing them with black-and-white historical footages.

5. Nip/Tuck

Waking up while in surgery is the stuff of nightmares, and the CGI human with the twitching right hand looks like it’s going to do just that.

4. The Twilight Zone

This is the oldest TV opening sequence in the list, but the passing decades have not diminished its creepiness one bit.

3. The X-Files

The theme alone is enough to send chills down anybody’s spine.

2. Six Feet Under

It’s but natural for a show dealing with death to have a title sequence that shows, well, death, but the opening just captures the essence of dying (i.e. the hands that get pulled away, the wilting flowers) so uncannily that it’s downright creepy. And then there’s the deceptively cheerful-sounding theme that makes it all the more disturbing.

1. Dexter

This opening sequence, probably the most brilliantly executed ever, changed the way I looked at breakfast forever.

But as great as they all look on TV, there are of course standouts among the top 24. Here are 10 of them:

1. Kristy Lee Cook

Looks like a cross between Rachel Blanchard and Kate Bosworth, but with a hotter body. Way hotter.

2. Michael Johns

Brings back memories of the late Michael Hutchence, and not just because they’re both from Australia.

3. Ramiele Malubay

Between this extremely cute girl from Florida and AI Season 3 finalists Camile Velasco and Jasmine Trias, Ramielle gets my vote as the hottest Filipina to ever work the Idol stage.

4. Luke Menard

Forget the forgettable voice and the annoying demeanor. Luke looks like Orlando Bloom and Scott Speedman morphed together, and that could be his ticket into the finals.

5. Kady Malloy

If Carrie Underwood got any hotter, she’d be this barely legal Texan girl.

6. Jason Castro

Get past the dreadlocks and you’ll see a hazel-eyed hottie who could have been a member of any of those popcorn boy bands out there.

7. Amy Davis

She isn’t a Maxim Hometown Hottie for nothing. Too bad she’s already out of the competition.

8. David Hernandez

If he grows some facial hair, he could be a singing double for Oded Fehr (that guy from “The Mummy” movies) should the latter do musicals in the future.

9. Asia’h Epperson

I don’t know if the passing resemblance to Vivica A. Fox makes her hot, but I’m certain her being a cheerleader plays a big factor, as it brings images of TV cheerleader Hayden Panettierre to mind. And yes, she’s just as short. Short, but hot nonetheless.

10. David Cook

A hot Jack Black (if that’s even possible), especially when he grimaces while hitting those high rock star notes.

Maybe it’s the fact that when women fight, it’s basically a no-holds barred affair. On top of wild, flailing punches and kicks, women pull hair, scratch, bite and yeah, rip each other’s clothes off, making it so much more fun to watch than a typical fight between two guys.

Let’s just say that in a real girl fight, the phrase “never kick a man when he’s down” holds absolutely no meaning whatsoever. They are, after all, women. And those UFC sissies got nothing on these really fierce female creatures.

Some of the videos below could be NSFW.

Some anti-smoking ads, however, are good for a laugh, and a severe coughing fit as well if you’re a smoker. Here are 10 funny anti-smoking commercials from all over the world.

1. Get Your Lungs Back

2. Smoking Kills In More Ways Than One

3. Animals Smoking

4. What’s Your Excuse?

5. Smoker Seduction

6. Have You Seen My Hamster?

7. Annoying Smokers

8. Just Returning The Favor

9. No Smoking

10. Get Unhooked
