Has anyone else here seen these before?  It's a new kind of humour on the youtube, audio dubs of infomercials.

Here's a list of Top 7 dub-overs of infomercials starring Billy Mays, complete with video.

They are hillarious if only for the fact that they try to stick quite close to the original scripts -- they seem improvisational in spirit.  They aren't trying to change the meaning of the infomercials, they are just putting a little twist on the presentation style.  That's their brilliance.

Honestly i am in awe of the people who come up with the ideas to do these kinds of things.

This is part of a not so viral marketing campaign: http://www.youtube.c.../watch?v=OVHUAco_k-g "Barry Scott - Cillit Bang"

But I like the 300 remix more: http://www.youtube.c.../watch?v=G8GM1LMPHt4

And there will even be a movie: http://www.youtube.c.../watch?v=fXICRlcqOpM
