A Smith called Pete takes us into the newsreel files and pulls out some weird stunts, like women traveling over the rooftops of Manhattan by a wire, hanging by their teeth, and the sort of daredevil car crash shows that proceeded racing events -- Evil Knievel work for people of my age.
Anyone who has browsed the Internet for videos of drunk Russians driving, or taken a look at Daniel Tosh's clip show, Tosh.0, will instantly recognize what we're looking at here, down to the contemptuous jokes cracked by the narrator. Pete's shorts offer a lot more sound effects than Tosh, who apparently feels no need to enrich the idiocy of humans other than a warning from his networks that they do not encourage these stunts. Yeah, sure. As if people aren't willing to risk their lives and limbs for the chance of a little publicity.
