Buckner and Garcia's 'Found Me the Bomb' Revealed

So glad to see this on the site. The image of Ryan jumping up and down when Dave gets there is something I used to watch when I was having bad days and needed something to cheer me up: joy in its purest form.

I just watched that again yesterday. I still can't believe it. He was really such a charismatic and friendly guy. Even when he's gone he's still making everyone laugh.

Filming this was amazing. I had never seen anyone literally ROFL before.

This is hands down one of my favourite moments of Ryan on camera ever. I cannot describe the sheer amount of laughter that overcame me the first time I watched the video simply because he had collapsed into an all out laughing fit, followed by the envy of having never truly enjoyed anything NEARLY AS MUCH AS THIS MAN

This was the first video I looked for after I learned about Ryan's passing. Glad you guys were able to get it on the site.

This is one of the first videos I thought of. I can remember the mystique surrounding the footage that got leaked before this official version, and all the speculation washing around the GB community as to what it could all mean.

None of the theories lived up to the full scope of Ryan's unbridled rapture. Infectious mirth at its best.

I love how Ryan breaks down on the floor laughing. Never again, God damn it. RIP Ryan.

Awesome video. Gonna miss Ryan very much.

Thank you.

Wait, this wasn't on the site before? Was that just a thing on YT?

Anyway, great seeing these awesome moments again!

Thanks Ryan.

Ah man, so good. Thanks for posting this.

God, I miss you Ryan :(

Oh man I remember this, it was hilarious!

Desk speakers. Ahahaha. Miss you Ryan.

Worth reading and related: Ryan's short and sweet obituary for Gary Garcia, written pretty shortly after this video. For all of the pranks and jokes, his kind heart shines through in these few paragraphs.

Here's the lyrics if you find it hard to hear:

----

found me the bomb

i'm talkin 'bout that giant bomb

yes i found me the bomb

i'm talkin bout that giant bomb

it explodes like dynamite

giant bomb dot com

came down with the fever

back in nineteen eighty one

said we caught us the fever

way back late in eighty one

aint never found no cure

till giant bomb came along

I'm a wizard yes i am

and you know what that means

I'm a wizard yes i am

i think you know what i mean

uh uh uh uh uh aint gonna say it

but its exactly what it seems

punchin out for a quick look

or the bombcast for a peek

punchin out for a quick look

or giant bomb cast for a peek

thursday night they really throw down

its the best night of the week

Wow, thanks Ben!

They should put more intern videos of ryan on the site !! i remember one of ryan ignoring kessler good times!

Amazing to see him just fall apart with joy at what he was hearing.

Man, I remember seeing this video on youtube. Glad to see it on the site finally. Probably one of the happiest I've ever seen Ryan.

This video is a medicine. Thanks

One of my favorite things about Ryan is his laugh. When he laughed at something I'd pretty much always laugh too. This video is a great example. It gives me a stupid grin to this day.

Miss you, Ryan!

Thanks for this.

This is why I love Ryan Davis.

Glad y'all got this on the site proper. Easily the happiest I ever saw Ryan.

This is fantastic. Gonna miss Ryan so very much.

This is so great!

God dammit.

This makes me simultaneously happy and miserable.
