Video Thing: Surströmming

Drew is now more of a man than anyone in whiskey media

<>

Hmm, so this is what goes on in San Francisco.

When did they first obtain the fish can?
Also VIDEO THING!!!!

just realized something; this is the first video thing you guys have done in like... years! 
 
do one every friday, dammit! 
 
... this is the first in a while, right?

MY GOD THEY OPENED THE FISH CAN
 
THEY OPENED THE FISH CAN
 
*ahem*
 
THEY OPENED THE GODDAMN FISH CAN

I would eat rotten fish to work at GB.

i nearly vomited from just looking at it

I never have had a weak stomach but this almost made me vomit....

That was some waaaaaay too old surströmming. Speaking as a Swede who eats and enjoys surstömming as often as I can during summer, I would not eat this.

Why...WHY?!

När fick dom burken med surströmming..?

Drew is a bad man. Acted like it was no big deal to eat that cesspool of fish.  
Video was kinda weak though. With as much build up as there was it all sorta went out with a fizzle, not a <>.

Drew Scanlon, Whiskey Media Hero & Champion of Giant Bomb.

I want to know what bet Drew lost for this to happen

I gagged.

i think i just threw up in my mouth a little :D

That was like every weird food challenge from Fear Factor rolled into one moment.  When Drew put that in his mouth I actually went blind and deaf for a moment.  It was like my body knew I couldn't possibly take seeing or hearing anymore for a few seconds and let me recover.  I would like updates through the weekend to know that they are all still alive (those who ate and those who merely inhaled the toxins).

Poor Kessler...

" That was some waaaaaay too old surströmming. Speaking as a Swede who eats and enjoys surstömming as often as I can during summer, I would not eat this. "

I literally closed my eyes when Drew ate that. Drew and Kessler should get a raise for that.

Eeugghhhhh! Fuck. Here's hoping Drew and Kessler don't die from Botulism in two days.

Greatest moment in GB history right here folks. Ballads will be written about the bravery of Drew and Matt. Bravo!

I hope Drew got a large bonus, or next week off.

" Dave, Kessler, my hat is off to the both of you. "

Video Thing intro = good 
Everything after that = gross 
  
Balls of steel.

I hope Drew survives the other guy tho......

Seeing Matt in such agony, well for some reason makes me very happy

I am SO GLAD there was video for this!
 
Ilike the awesome VIDEO THING opening on this one. I hope that's a regular thing.
 
Also Kessler has proven his mettle and may now rest easy, for his position at Giant Bomb is now secure.
 
At least until he mouths off and then he is gone.

And that was Giant Bomb <>

Sorry, Bodega. I laughed at your gag reflexes.

Now that I watched it: Not only did you guys eat one of the worst  things I can think of, it was also way to old. I can't believe you actually ate it.

Man this is kinda cruel.

End of an era.

I want a full length uncut video of this. Like soooooo bad!

Nice knowing you Drew. We'll miss you.

This continues to cement Matt Kessler's position as simultaneously enviable and unenviable.  
To those who have dined, I salute you.

funny indeed

 I loved the shot of Vinnie.  He always looks so cheerful and happy.  But here he looked devastated.

Swedish:Hahaha! Surströmming är ju JÄTTEGOTT! 
(English: Surströmming is so DELICIOUS!)
 
However, it shouldn't really be eaten when it is old. :|

My Gawd....Why?   WHY? 
 
Just eat kipper snacks, mabe in tomatoe sauce. That's gross enough, though ocassionaly I'l enjoy plain and sardines, especially in olive oil. 
 
healthy of all things apparently.

be one with the fish

Some said this day would never come... what are they to say now?

OH MY GOD THEY DID IT
