Fresno Firefighter and Sprinkler Video, Post-Oscar Fest with Jimmy Kimmel Sleeping with Ben Affleck and Other Stars Are new Youtube Humorous Hits
The Fresno Fire Department is in the news for all the right reasons. By itself, it shows the rest of the world that residents of Fresno can have a great sense of humor. At this point, I will say kudos to Fresno Fire Chief Randy Bruegman for this type of catchy PSA. The message is clear: "Having sprinklers in your home is like having a firefighter living with you. Maybe even better," he added. Who would not understand the importance of having functioning sprinklers in their home? the idea of installing sprinklers is even better than having your own personal firefighter who will hog the bathroom, take over the kids' video games and eating more than his share of dinner. The family and kids may change their mind after letting this firefighter live with them. Who wants to deal with all this gear after all? Comparing a sprinkler system with living with a firefighter is a funny concept developed by the Fresno Fire Department thanks to a Federal grant.
Popular Video-sharing site, youtube.com, has received some many visitors who can not stop laughing about the video. This type of public service saves lives by educating the general population. According to a Shopnowshop Advertising Network executive, The Fresno Fire Department hit all the right points with this one-minute video. It resonates very well with parents, teenagers and mature individuals. The video takes a comic approach to fire safety and may end up becoming a timeless hit. So far, many other agencies and schools are asking Fresno Fire Chief Bruegman for permission to use it. This week, NBC's show, Today with Matt Lauer and Co. presented a segment where kids were sleeping through the smoke alarm.
As far as Jimmy Kimmel, host of the ABC late-night talk show "Jimmy Kimmel Live" is concerned, the Oscar Night questions were about whom he was sleeping with. In this satiric video posted on Youtube.com, viewers are led to think about his relationship with Ben Affleck and others. Some of the stars featured in the video are Brad Pitt, Harrison Ford, Cameron Diaz, Don Cheadle, Robin Williams, Josh Groban and Huey Lewis, major male Hollywood leading men whose orientation is clear. They did not mind participating in a comedy with Jimmy Kimmel. No wonder the video has become a hit on youtube.com. Even the New York Post gave a preview of this star-studded video by Jimmy Kimmel. It is supposed to be to the caliber of "We are the World" which is a reply to a video presented by comedian Sarah Silverman last January. Find the video on ABC.com and youtube.
