Sexual Commentating

One of the most popular jokes of the past few years is "That's what she said" which is a way of taking something somebody says that isn't sexual in nature and viewing it as sexual.  It's proof that for most people sex is always on the brain.  I took replays of the 'manliest sport', football, and found sexual innuendo comments from the commentators.  I then mixed the audio of these comments with sexually suggestive videos.  My overall goal was to take the original purpose of videos and mix them together in a way to create a new purpose, to make the viewer uncomfortable.

I made some very weird connections that probably could not have been made any other way.  In no other context can I image connecting football replays, Herman Cain political ads, Wendy's frosty machine training, and a tutorial video on making wood poles.  This video is interesting because I know most the videos I took were not uploaded for the way I used them.
