Dad Dubs Coworker's Voice Over Footage of His Six-Year-Old Son, Inadvertently Stumbles Onto the Next Big Thing
It's a simple comedic premise: Have a child lip-dub to a recording of an adult, then wait for hilarity to ensue.
That's what video editor Benjamin Barak had in mind when he asked a coworker to record a few funny skits that he later dubbed over footage of his son, Maximus Thor. (Yes, that's his real name.)
Barak probably didn't envision the results ending up on the front page of Reddit, but that's precisely what happened. Now what? "This is gonna blowup beyond reddit," predicts one Redditor. "Like the nighttime evening news, or Jimmy Kimmel or Conan."
Clear your schedule, Maximus — you're going to Hollywood.
