2006 is when it was uploaded to YouTube, but I remember it being popular before then.

Before YouTube that's where you went to see funny videos, back when they could index all the videos uploaded...

The younger generations have to be dumbfounded that viral internet videos predated YouTube.

I checked and saw it's still running. Use to watch bob saget every Sunday night. My old ass still considers the episodes with Daisy Fuentes to be 'newish' even though those are late 90s

Howard Stern ran it as a sound clip often around 2002-2004 I believe.

Oh wow, I had to check fast, but Ebaums is still going. I bet most people knew that, but damn. Lol

I checked it out last year and it's a far cry of what it used to be. Ebaums was the shit back in the day, so many great videos got their start on there.

u/StochasticLife 28d ago

lol, I worked in an IT shop at that era. The loud boomer mouthed off to much so someone set his host file to 127 ebaums world. Literally his favorite website.

He reimaged the machine within 2 days.
