BTW – the Old Spice videos over the last couple of days were an amazing marketing feat. To create that kind of buzz. See more on Read/Write Web.

I particularly enjoyed the
“It’s a laptop with access to FUCKLOADS of library databases!”
But really, I just wanted to say FUCKLOADS.
-
This was wonderful!
-
Stumbled from Moldova!
-
I think he said, “bucket loads”
-
marketing genius.
amazing.
-
This was awesome until he said “Libary”
-
Lol Harold B. Lee was a President of the Mormon Church……
-
love that this video is from BYU! that’s where i’m going in the fall
-
Yes, he said bucket loads. If he used the f* word I am pretty sure he’d escorted off BYU property and told to never come back. BYU has a strict honor code.
As a Utahn and a non-Mormon I think the honor code is ridiculous, but no one is forced to go there.
Awesome, funny, and creative spoof, however.
-
Old spice really out did themselves with those commercial. And this one was pretty clever. Good job guys.
-
The “Hyah” is what kills me. I am dead.
-
Excellent work.
-
Two of us in the same office both said, “Did he just use the F-word?” Another colleague laughed at us and said, “that was BUCKET LOADS.” I’m kinda glad we weren’t the only ones who misheard… It’s an excellent video with great editing! Very smooth
-
Except [this commenter doesn't approve of the LDS church- ckp]
-
fake.
-
Stumbled from California
-
that was great, makes me want to study for once.
-
lol good stuff.
-
I love this! I’ve seen the Old Spice commercial popping up everywhere. Happy to see a library spoof of it. :]
-
Please tell me 17, yoballs, how the fuck is this “fake”?
-
I agree with yoballs, definitely fake!!
-
its not fake, it was a viral marketing thang to fuel a new public image for Old Spice.
also, he said “bucketloads”, just like 8 out of 5 dentists would have. lol -
ROFL
-
Bucket loads
-
Good thing Sam would never go there – BYU deserves better.
-
Stumbled Upon in Oregon.
-
I was in that library today, never knew it had a snack zone….
-
This is an exact clone of the old spice commercial. How is it funny? If they were making fun of the commercials, I guess I would get it. It’s like when those Wassup Budweiser commercials came out.
-
Stumbled from Australia! Hilarious Parody! Will totally pass it on!
-
Stumbled from New York!
-
tht was brilliant
-

-
stumbled from South Africa
-
@yoballs yoballs are fake?
-
The student in this video is Stephen Jones, he is the president of BYU’s stand-up comedy club, Humor U. Humor U is the largest college comedy club in the world. You can see their videos at: http://www.youtube.com/user/theofficialHumorU
