Came across this great short film about Mutually Assured Destruction. It’s not really a political commentary or anything, it’s just funny.
Be forewarned however that this one is NOT for the kiddies. Plenty of really bad language in this. Still, you’ll be laughing your A– off mates.
PS – Watch out for those nasty kangaroos!
The world will not end because of earthquakes, tsunami, meteor strike, nuclear war, supernova, or any other natural or man made disaster. End will not happen on any arbitrary date like December 2012. The end of the universe has been designed into the laws of the universe by the creator. The contraction of the universe will commence the beginning of the end which will last for thousands and possibly millions of years. We will however be gone far before that time removed from the dying universe.
John, I clicked through and got a black screen with the message I reported.
I thought that the thought police or perhaps the Society for Prevention of Exploitation of Kangaroos had complained.
You’re right, it is available now – I’m waiting for it to load into my browser.
Thanks for following up.
John,
I’m not sure what you were seeing, but the video is working for me and I didn’t even replace it. I’ve also checked the YouTube page version of it, and it’s still there. Perhaps it was just a temporary system glitch, but thanks for reporting it.

“We’re sorry – this video is no longer available”!
I wana go hang in Hawaii too :D
JP-This brings back memories of FastStart in St. Louis. I used to show this on the big screen in the auditorium during lunch breaks…great laughs. It’s a great humor piece that pokes “mutually assured destruction” in the eye.
Haha, very assuring =P
Heh. I remember crying with laughter many years ago when I first saw this. It’s still pretty funny. :)
I don’t believe that the nukes will be used any time soon. Maybe 50 years from now…. Nobody has to be scared, if die we all die…

:) Cute movie. Is the author trying to get the next nobel prize? ;)

My 14 year old and his friend showed me that last school year, and yes I’m a horrible mother – but, because it was so funny – I didn’t get mad at them because of the bad language. And we even came home from his friend’s house and showed my husband, who also just laughed, instead of saying, “Son! What are you doing watching videos like that?!” Terrible, I know.
I’m telling you, these kids dig up the funniest ones!
Urbanist – I can totally see where you’re coming from, too, though. The world is definitely getting mighty creepy.
I keep thinking, as the apparently inevitable war with Iran approaches, that it’s like we’re reliving the cold war. Something like this video was humorous to me a few years back, but with each passing day in Iraq it seems like more and more of a sobering possibility. Maybe it won’t be nukes, but I worry :/
