victim of a shark attack see the wounds
3:34
there on the side of his stomach and
3:37
this is a Bible completely and original
3:40

3:42
time to scribble down each and every
3:45
verse from every chapter of the Bible
3:47
what's in the box see what's see what's
3:49
inside the box
3:50
anything that's not good let's just let
3:58
him let's just let them help I don't

4:03
tour guy with a candle sticking out of
4:05
his noggin that's what happened in China
4:07
this gentleman was showing around
4:10
American dignitaries and they discovered
4:12
that he had kind of put a hole in his
4:15
head and stuck a lit candle on top just
4:17
so they could see lit another born with
4:19
a rare medical condition Ching fougere
4:22

5:00
fantasy coffins are always fascinating
5:03
you can get buried in something you're
5:04
very passionate about like a coca-cola
5:06
bottle but imagine if after you passed
5:09
away your families put you in a new coke
5:12

5:15
long that would be awkward ahead of
