The Yesssssssss! Men are back

Thursday, July 23rd, 2009

I love these guys. In this interview, they begin talking about a hoax they did a few years ago (and it never gets old). One of them posed as a spokesperson for Dow Chemical - the gynormous chemical corp that aquired Union Carbide in 2001. Union Carbide was responsible for over 20,000 deaths in Bhopal, India in 1984, when a chemical plant leaked. The bodies are still pilling up there, and children continue to play on contaminated ground. Union Carbide, of course, denied any responsibility and then they were bought out by Dow.

The “spokesperson” for Dow claimed full responsibility and pledged billions in clean-up and reparations. They were going to liquidate Union Carbide and use the funds to help the people there. It was aired twice by BBC before they realized it was a hoax. Genius.
