Some people think that World of Warcraft freakout kid video is a fake. Some think it’s real. Whatever the case, it has over six million views on Youtube, and like most things that get that popular on YouTube, WoW freakout got remixed. A lot.
The best one so far was the one based on Kirby’ Gourmet Race, which was alright. Honestly, the Kirby remixes have been done to death. This new remix based on the original Dragon Ball though is hilarious. Check it out after the break.

He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

Anyone remember Star Wars kid, when they added in real lightsaber effects, and had him dueling Darth Maul and such? I think there were like 100 Star Wars kid renditions at the end of it. This WoW kid has potential!
No, I'd still have to give Kirby the full win on this one. This one just didn't show a real flair for editing and really just added a few sfx here and there between the scant graphic enhancement.
The genius of the Kirby one lies in the editing, both sound and pic. Not to mention the sudden and hilarious break in noise and action. Then you get a double dose right after.
No, sorry, this one just doesn't cut the mustard. Plus, it's not over 9000 views yet.
okay....solid squirrel the kirby one was kindy more genius...(yeah the anal remote control orgasm) but the sfx(the blurred one when he hits the bed) here are great...and his whirlwind-head on the bed-combo and the green ball shit...super sajin shit yeah
Funny, although it's got to be fake - no one would leave their webcam on while freaking out, and then POST the footage of themselves doing such an embarassing thing. So it's fake. Pretty good impression of anger though, and I know that there ARE some people who would really react that way in real life.
Why do you assume he posted it Korolev? What if it was a shared computer and the webcam wasn't even his. This all could have been captured and posted without the subject ever knowing.
You have to see the whole video. I have seen my lady's young brother do something similar to that shit because he is borderline autistic. You'd be amazed at the funnies you get from having children in the home with crippling mental disorders! Chemical imbalance for teh winz!!
I <have a friend/have seen my> <wife/brother/friend/friend of a friend/classmate> act this way because he <is borderline autistic/has aspergers/is retarded> <insert sarcastic netspeak here>
Really people, what the fuck is borderline autism? it doesn't exist. The video is probably fake and the kid was just trying to look as idiotic as possible. Now he's been burned because he was too good at it.

Here's a WoW freakout for you. I cried from laughter. Cried like a girly girl.
One word: Amazing.
