This is the infamous "Lada Raider" video. Some Finnish guys parodying the Knight Rider intro with a Lada VAZ (Russian Fiat knockoff) in a gravel pit. It has been around since at least 2002 but may be much older than that. It looks like it was originally filmed on video tape. Observe the guy mooning at 0:37.

I miss rotten.com and dan’s gallery of the grotesque.

I also remember a video done by something like ‘Aeroflex industries’ which was basically someone firing 1:1 tracer out of a minigun door mounted in a Hughes 500 as they flew over a series of targets at dusk. That came out in maybe ‘95 or ‘96? It was spectacular.

Does anyone remember the video that went along with this? It came out after Mel Gibson's whole meltdown

I'd give my left testicle if someone found an archive of a YT video called "The way of the way of the way". It was a clip of some 80s cartoon that looked like Fantastic Four with a beat over it and voice over saying things like "What is the way of the brown man?" and "I can't stand Pakis".

First video I ever watched online:

The whassup meme was everywhere in the early 2000s. One of the first online videos I saw was this one goofing on the Elian Gonzalez raid using that format. I am surprised the original website hosting it is still around 22 years later.

No one has mentioned allyourbase.swf yet, which is a timeless classic from the pre-YouTube era when most popular videos were flash based.

There used to be a lot of weird and edgy comedy videos on YouTube from people that eventually went on to much bigger things. I first heard about Lena Dunham from her pistolskillponies YouTube channel before she started getting movie and TV deals. Most of her stuff from that era has probably been purged since the channel no longer exists. I wonder if Hooker on Campus is as funny as I remember it being.

Somehow the original Niggerfaggot video is still up on youtube, and isn't even age restricted:
A bunch of the people in Derrick Comedy went on to work in Hollywood. Some of their old comedy skits would probably get them banned from YouTube if they were released now.

The backyard wrestling videos really were something else.

The one I remember the most started with this scruffy-looking white boy whose apparent gimmick was "homeless dude" cutting a promo about how he was just going to quit trying to stay off drugs and hit that crack pipe harder than ever before, and go into the ring high as fuck and give everything he got.

Then he had to wrestle a shirtless black guy in juggalo facepaint on top of a garage roof. I think the white guy won the match by taking off his shirt, setting fire to it and throwing it at the black guy, causing him to fall off the roof when he tried to dodge it.
