- (Rhett) All right, it says "rat poison", not human poison.
- (Link) Hey, let's do that thing where you drive a car
at me and I jump over it! - Oh, I love that!
- (Rhett) We didn't wear helmets when I was a kid.
- (Link) We didn't have to wear seatbelts when I was a kid.
(giggles) - (Rhett) We didn't have to cook pork
to 160 degrees when I was a kid.
- (Link) I don't think I'm allergic to rabies.
Let's play real life Frogger! (cars accelerate)

- (Link) Hey, can you hand me the hair dryer?
- That's crazy. - (Link) If we leave this food out,
the bears will see us as friends. (chuckles)
- (Link, muffled) Chubby bunny.

- (man in black) Can't we all just get along?
At the Red House Furniture-- - (all in video) We can!
- (Rhett & Link) ♪ At the Red House ♪
- (man in black) I'm Richard, AKA big head.
I work at the Red House and I'm Black.
- (shocked gasp) What? What?
(snickers) - (bearded man) I'm Johnny, AKA ten gauge.
I work at the Red House and I'm white.
- Why are they saying their ethnicity?
- (man) I'm Black and I love the Red House. - Oh my god.
- (older man) I'm white and I love the Red House.
(chuckles)
- Are they advertising? - (Rhett & Link) ♪ At the Red House ♪
- This is an odd commercial.
- (Richard) Oh my god, this sofa is perfect for a Black person
or a white person.
- Why do they have to say that?
- (Johnny) This mattress is perfect for a white person.
- Oh my gosh, this is really funny.

- That is funny.
- Red House... fine.
Pillows... perfect.
Second...
Thumbs down, please.
- (children) Question time!
- (Finebros) So do you know who those two guys were?
- No.
- No, but they're funny.
- They're the cool guys.
- They're goofy guys.
One looks kind of like you.
- (Finebros) So let's talk about the videos.
First, the song with the pillows. What'd you think of that one?
- Uh, they're weird.
- That was actually kind of cool.
- (both) That was so cool!
- I thought that was funny.
Like, they just dived head-first. ♪ My favorite pillow ♪
- (Finebros) How did they do it?
- I thought the pillows were being sucked up via vent on the ceiling.
- When they were pulling pillows out,
they were probably just throwing pillows in and then doing it in reverse.
- Yeah, but they also had to sing.
- Maybe they could sing in reverse?
- They're just saying it backwards.
Like... (singing in reverse)
- (Finebros) They actually sang the song backwards
when they filmed the video. - (laughing) Bravo!
- Dang, that's commitment.
- So you mean "sad", they would say "das"?
That's kind of cool.
- (Finebros) And the second video, about the final words
that people say, what'd you think of that one?
- Dumb. - (Finebros snickers)
- Not appropriate.
You don't eat poisoned rat. That makes humans dead!
- (Finebros) Do you have an idea for that, something you could say
right before you died that was obviously a stupid thing
that led to your death?
- Well, if you drop into boiling water with a swimsuit on
it apparently doesn't kill you.
- I wonder if a chicken tartare will work.
- A Weeping Angel. Hold on.
Let me rub my eyes. - (Finebros cracks up)
And last, the commercial about the furniture store.
Did you find it funny? - Not really.
- ♪ At the Red House ♪
- At first it was so shocking and weird.
"I'm Black." "I'm white."
White people don't really say that.
- ♪ At the Red House ♪
- That was pretty funny.
It's, like, racist but you could tell
they were being sorta sarcastic.
- ♪ At the Red House ♪
- You don't have to advertise that Black people and white people
can shop there 'cause that's every single store.
- ♪ At the Red House ♪
- It was just like... it was just-- was it a real commercial?
- (Finebros) Well, the guys who make these videos,
they're called Rhett and Link. - Rhett and Link.
- (Finebros) So here's Rhett. (snickering)
Oh, I like his hairstyle.
- He reminds me of Shakespeare.
- Like, if I didn't watch these video I would think he sort of
looks hipsterish.
- (Finebros) And here's Link. - Like Lincoln.
- Isn't there a monster called The Missing Link?
- Does he play too much video games or something?
- (Finebros) And they make music videos and comedy videos
and commercials.
Why do you think people like them so much
when they make a lot of different types of videos?
- They're funny and they're diverse.
They're not the same thing over and over.
- I like surprises.
If I've seen it before, then it's like, "Okay, same thing."
- You probably have a really diverse audience,
and so there's something for everybody.
It's like Target. It's the Target of YouTubes.
- (Finebros) Rhett and Link even had a TV show for one season
all about them making commercials for local businesses.
- Wow.
- I would watch that.
- (Finebros) Do you think it's a good idea to take something
that's popular on YouTube and turn it into a TV show?
- That's not a good idea because then it would be spoiled.
- People don't have YouTube, but they have TV.
They could go onto TV.
But if they don't have a TV, they could go on YouTuuuuu-bah!
- See, if it's really popular on YouTube,
and a lot-- like a lot-- of people are watching YouTube nowadays,
so they think, "Oh, it'll bring more popularity to my channel
if I put this on there."
- (Finebros) So the story is that these two guys met in first grade.
- (coos and giggles)
- (Finebros) And have been best friends the rest of their life
and now even work together and have done TV shows together.
What do you think about that?
- Well, to stay with a friend for that long is kind of insane.
- That means that they were really right for each other.
It's sort of like my best friend Gabrielle and I.
- That seems like a movie.
Like, it doesn't seem real.
- A lot of people, when they say, "We're gonna be best friends forever!"
It usually doesn't work out that well.
(clang!) - (Finebros) HARSH.
(double clang!) But TRUTH!
Do you think that you and your best friend will be best friends
forever and have a business together one day?
- Yes.
I hope he'll decide so.
I'm ready to.
- (Finebros) Final question: will you watch more Rhett and Link?
- No.
- Yeah.
- I'll do it.
- Yeah, I'll subscribe.
- Yeah. (giggles)
I've never seen anything like this before.
