High School Player Slams Teammate with RKO

Professional wrestling may be fake, but the stunt pulled in the following video is very much real.


The footage features two high school football players lined up across from each other, presumably one to block and the other to attempt to get by him, simulating what happens on every play at the line of scrimmage.


But as soon as the whistle blows, one of the young men goes straight for an RKO, leaping up and slamming his teammate"s head down on his shoulder.


The RKO is the finishing move used by the WWE"s Randy Orton… and you can go ahead and call it as "fake" as you want.


But this sure looks like it hurt to us!

Back to the Future Day: Which Predictions Came True?


If you"ve so much as dipped a toe into the social media ocean today, then you"re certainly aware that October 21, 2015 has a special connection to a beloved "80s film classic.


Yes, this is the day that this is the day that Charlie Sheen"s character in Ferris Bueller is finally released from prison.


We kid! As you"ve no doubt been reminded by approximately 4,000 memes that have seen more mileage than Marty McFly"s down vest, it"s Back to the Future Day!


Naturally, the question on everyone"s mind is: How accurate was the 1989 sequel that predicted life in the far off future of the 21st Century?


Sadly, we don"t have self-tying Nikes yet, but in many other ways the film was pretty spot-on.


Astrophysicist, snappy dresser and all-around badass Neil deGrasse Tyson gave a rundown of what the film got right (and oh-so wrong) about the technological advancements we enjoy in 2015.


Strap in – because where we"re going, we don"t need roads:


 




1. Pocket Digital Cameras [Got it]


Pocket digital cameras got it

We’re all carrying tiny, hi-res digital cameras in our pockets. Granted, they look a little different than Doc Brown’s futuristic doo-hickey.



2. Video Chats [Got it]


Video chats got it

Video chatting has existed for years. Of course, we tend to do it on much smaller screens.



3. Drone-walked Dogs. [Nope]


Drone walked dogs nope

Sadly, lazy-ass people aren’t yet walking their dogs with drones. Though can this really be far off?



4. Multiple Home Fax Machines [WTF?]


Multiple home fax machines wtf

This might be the film’s most wildly off-base predicition.



5. Double Neckties. [WTF?]


Double neckties wtf

Although this one is pretty bad, too.



6. Thumbprint Locks. [Got it]


Thumbprint locks got it

Most iPhone owners use one of these every day.

Paris Hilton, Former Celebrity, Sends Birthday Wishes to Kim Kardashian

The woman who was Kim Kardashian before Kim Kardashian was Kim Kardashian would like to wish Kim Kardashian a happy birthday.


We’re talking about Paris Hilton.



The former A-Lister, who actually hired Kim as her personal assistant way back in the day, took to Instagram today and wished her former employee/close friend a happy birthday.


“Happy Birthday @KimKardashian,” Hilton wrote as a caption to the above throwiback photo.


“Wishing you the best on your special day. What a fun trip we had in Australia, we loved rocking our matching #LouisBags #BirthdayGirl.”


Kardashian tuns 35 today, with THG having joined Paris this morning in sending our birthday wishes to the ex-sex tape star.


We did so via a collection of Kim Kardashian photos that ranged from her naked body to shots of her and Kanye.


And also with this rundown of Kim Kardashian birthday suit pictures, of course.


As for Paris and Kim, they have more in common than just the trip above. They are both also amateur porn stars!
