- What the heck?
(silence)
- (giggling) What's that?
- It was crazy, but really funny.
- I see it on Musical.ly a lot.
And I was like, "Where is this from?"
And I just kept watching it 'cause it's so funny.
- (children) Question time!
- (FBE) So what in the world was this? - I have no idea.
- Awkward!
- I've seen it somewhere.
But I don't know what it is for.
- It was this guy with an invisible pen and invisible apple.
- Apple pen for life!
- The apple pen pineapple pen!
(imitates cymbal crashing)
- That was the-the-the pen-- the-the wait-- the-the pen apple-- the-- oh god!
- It was funny. It was entertaining.
I loved it.
It was just very cheesy.
- (FBE) So this was the video for something referred
to as "Pen Pineapple Apple Pen." - "Pen Pineapple Apple Pen."
- "Pen Pineapple Apple Pen."
- That's like a tongue twister.
- (FBE) What do you think that means?
- I don't know.
- Probably some weird product.
- It's the ultimate fruity pen!
- It's a commercial for pineapple and apple smelling pens?
- A pen that looks like an apple and a pineapple?
(laughing) I don't know.
- I feel like it's gonna be something that makes no sense
and you're like, "How does that make sense with that video?"
- (FBE) So the video is by a comedian playing a character called Pico Taro.
- Pickin' what now?
- (FBE) The video was released very recently
and already has millions and millions of views on YouTube.
- (giggling) I can kind of see why.
- (FBE) So why do you think so many people
are watching this video?
- 'Cause they think it's funny.
But it's noooooot.
- It's funny for the other people to watch.
- Probably because everyone is like, "What even is this?!"
- Everyone likes some funny things.
- People like to watch weird things like The Harlem Shake.
It's exactly like that.
- (FBE) So, since the video's upload, hundreds and hundreds of videos
of people doing their own versions of this song and dance
has sprung up online. - Oh yeah, yeah.
I've seen some of those.
- (FBE) Why is that at thing now, that when a video goes viral
all of a sudden everyone wants to make their own version of it?
- I have no idea.
- They do it for the views.
- It's fun to make something famous your own!
- It would be fun because your friends would laugh and laugh and laugh.
- It's new.
They want to be the first people to know the new dance.
- It's kinda like a parody of something,
where you can-- for this, for example, you could add new fruits,
like a blueberry pen or something.
- (FBE) So finally, you know the words and you know the dance,
so we wanna see your best version of the Pen Pineapple Apple Pen.
- Oh no-- no! No!
