  • hey, you should recycle, not make a mess in the countryside!! yes it is macho what you did, but not very clever.

  • People actually gave you money? Your videos are crap dude.

    Oh well, I did like the part where you blew up that over priced under powered hunk of electronic garbage they try to pass off as a computer. Though you did buy another one right after.

  • or just build a pc more powerfull then the g5 for 3000 bucks

  • @TheArnzi you missed it being that Final Cut is only Mac , what a douche

  • @TheArnzi Seriously? It would only take $800

  • steve jobs will be proud

  • Man i still would want that. Still Good thing u go the G5.

  • you must eat Prozac

  • so much turmoil over a fucking computer. I USE MACS, AND THEY'RE GREAT. i also use an i7 sandy bridge PC that i made to game. so yes, macs don't have the hardware to game, but that's not their soul purpose. they cost so much because of apple's development and design budget, and the apple support system. in my opinion i think their support is fantastic. my PC games far better than any mac. but my macs can do anything else i need, far better. so there you go. mac=pc. (to some extent)

  • lame, so lame

  • LOL I wish I could make a video asking people for money. But I'd rather just save up the money.

  • That was stupid and wasteful.

  • @FrontalTraction no its not....it was a mac....it deserved to be destroyed.

  • @Superchad245 It could have been recycled.

  • @Superchad245 Don't you ever diss the PowerPC Mac computers. They are much better than your average Winshit PC. Diss the Intel Macs if you want, but respect ther PowerPC Mac computers.

  • what a bum... go beg go!

  • I am doing a similar fund raising but no where near that much. Im just tryin to raise a couple hundred for a new cpu. I would love to blow up my old one, i just need most of the parts from it to build the new one. :( I think this guy made good on his promise but asked way too much from people for nothing.

  • $5000 for a computer? i say they used some of the money to fund the road trip, the explosive and firearms and this film..........................­nice way to ripp everybody off.

  • PINKFLOYD wait nvm...

  • Lol

  • all we have is a 12 gauge and a glock 22... will either of those work on tannerite?

  • This video was obviously made before 2006 so you all can calm your tits about the price.

  • Comment removed

  • Are you the guy that actually made the video? If so, do you mind if I do something similar?

  • @WeAreTwoDoorsDown I would love to see the court case that involves two freeloaders arguing over who blew up their computer first, i say go for it.

  • haha bet you want a mac pro now instead of that useless ppc thing

  • Was this video edited on the G5?

  • @MBP6705 no you idiot.

  • @compmaster13 How am I an idiot?

  • why the fuck do you need 5,000 dollars a g5 was like 2.000 but not fucking 5.000

  • Did you back up before blowing up or did you take the HDD out?

  • I like how people are watching this and think it was less than a year ago.

  • can i have the g4

  • you dont need 5000 dollar for a g5.

    500 max.

    and why the fack do you blow up an apple. you have to blow a pc.

  • @Tjeggss Quad core Apple G5s (PowerMacs) start at $2500. The twelve core version costs $5000. $500 won't buy you any Apple product except an iPod/iPhone.

  • you dont need 5000 dollar for a g5.

    500 max.

  • @Tjeggss Look on ebay dude, you are talking about a mac pro.

    powermac is a whole different thing.

  • you could of selled it

  • And why didn't you give your old G4 to someone who could use it? It's realy easy/stupid to destroy something, but it's hard to find use for it.

  • @omes22 no ones gonna donate money to "help me get a g5 and I will give my old computer to my friend" this is just more entertaining. (not to mention over 4 years old)

  • man you're an asshole!!!!blowing up a computer is just stupid!!!!! I m sure u have an IQ of 45!!!!

  • der der der der der der der der der dermn

  • why?!??!?!?! i would rather blow up my eight year old dell that has a virus

  • the g5 will not work for you bitch

  • dude a g4 is a screamer and u blew up the ram, procssor and graphics card? stupid bull shit

  • i would of done that if it was BROKEN and salvaged forst

  • I'd never ever destroy an Apple product. Apple products may be overpriced, but Apple is holy and that's what makes it perfect!

  • yeah apple sucks hahaha

  • at least hes preatty honest but still i would had liked to a powermac g5 or a macpro get blown up

  • LOL i cant believe they got 5000 dollars from people to do this.

  • right before the mac pro huh? and after the intel announcement? and how it was demonstrated how much faster a 32-bit core duo was faster than a quad core version of the 64-bit g5?

    that is what really made me laugh XD

  • @SushiHead20 there was no quad core g5, ever. it was 2x dual core g5. PLUS! the xeons they used in the earliest quad mac pros were 64 bit and faster than the g5's in every way..

    you're a dumbass

  • myid9876543,

    oh no a mistake in grammar that didn't mean much to begin with proves that i'm stupid!! *sarcasm*

    my point was he did this not long after the intel transition was announced and not long before the mac pro was released.

    fuck off troll.

  • if you gave it to me I would do a better thing

    I put some wireless camera around it and throught it from 50th floor

    and record the thing

    and post it over youtube

  • At least he's honest

  • man this is somedickhead american shit cant believe ppl gave u money for that shit looks like u spent most of it on the mountain trip neway. couldve donated the computer to charity or sold it 2nd hand.

  • At least he can spell.

  • I can spell if I need to, if there's any part of my comment you failed to understand please let me know and I can spell it in plain English for you. By the way, "Help Me Get A G5" is incorrect, it should read "Help Me Get a G5", if you want to get into technicalities that is.

  • Well I must say it's a relief to finally discuss something with one who knows what a period is. At any rate, it's not really fair to criticize him for not donating his old computer. If we were to follow that line of argument to its logical conclusion he never would have gotten a computer in the first place and would now be living in a cardboard box because he gave everything to needy folk and such. And people gave the cash knowing what he planned anyways, so it really doesn't matter.

  • Yeh I wasn't particularly saying he could have just donated it - he could have done plenty of better more productive things with both the computer and his time, and i think even worse than the that is the fact people paid him for it. This shows some serious issues in the society we have created. And finally, lets face it, the the explosion was shit. And not worth paying money for. And if a bunch of people want to pay me 1000+ dollars to make a bigger explosion then let me know.

  • But you just validated what he did. You said if people give you money you'd blow something up exactly like he did. The quality of the explosion doesn't really matter, besides, his friend set it up anyways. I'm sure you could find better stuff to do too, but here you are making the same offer this guy did when there's any number of kittens to rescue from trees.

  • thats a good point. however i didnt actually do it and its more the fact people paid the guy money that is scary.

  • very estupid time

  • every single video no matter how random theres always people fighting about something useless in comments lol

  • AHHHH!!!! NOOOOO!!! WHY WOULD YOU KILL SUCH A BEAUTIFUL G4!!!?!?!?! haha, i have one, i took it from my aunt since she doesn't use it. iwould have been happy to take any ram or hardrives off your hands but thats over with..

  • "WHY WOULD YOU KILL SUCH A BEAUTIFUL G4" .... For a super Sexi G5 (I Would do it too)

  • A better solution would be to just take it apart and sell it on eBay or sell the entire thing so atleast you get a little $ in you pocket...

  • mac parts come fromuk,india,china and canada and not china

  • and now you want to blow up your G5 to get a Mac Pro? Idiot -.-

  • Whats that whistling song when they pause the video to go get your roommate.

  • Its from Robin-hood by Disney.

  • its from robin hood

  • Great now he needs a Mac Pro. lol

  • Well it's better then shooting deers. But he could've just kept the dough and shot another computer ^_^

  • Comment removed

  • i hope he took the internals out before blowing it up

  • i was thinking the same thing....untill seeing the end but some is still in good contact

  • anstatt diesen comuter zu zerstören hättest du ihn auch ir geben können! ^^Ich hab nur einen Intel iMac 24" und hätte gern noch einen g4 gehabt ^^

    man man man wie kann man bloß einen Mac schrotten? Depp!

  • and now you want to blow up your G5 for a Mac pro? ...crank

  • Enjoy your over hyped, over priced, piece of clunky crap

  • agred $5000 for a computer is retarded you could buy a used car.

  • enjoy your CHEAP plastic pc made with slave labor in china ENJOY :)

  • My iPod says "Made in China". So do Macs.

  • mine says made in Malaysia

  • ipods are made in china but not macs dumbass

  • I can tell you that Apple doesn't produce their products in the USA. If maybe some components, those computers are shipped from other places around the world.

  • ok the parts come mostly from japan and usa but they also come from:uk,india,china and canada unlike dell who uses nothing but Chinese bull shit im not raciest its just stuff from china sucks because they have to keep costs down apple doesn't care they build computers to last

  • I personally have no problem with the quality of products made in China. To put it into a non-bias context, my iPod was made in China, and it's one of the sturdiest gadgets that I've ever owned- this was the generation 1 shuffle btw. The labor force is the same, just China's economy lets it be much cheaper.

    Actually many things made in America are often crap because it's expensive to produce so the companies save money in other aspects producing under-quality products.

  • but airsoft guns made in china are not as high quality as americian or japanese 1's so in reallity it depends on what is being made and the company making it

  • This isn't true of all of them though. My '08 Mac Pro was made in the USA, as were several of my older iMacs. I also have machines made in Mexico, and a PowerBookG4 from Quanta, Taiwan. All iPods in the "Classic" line seem to be made in Shanghai (China,) but Macs themselves are made all over the world. Come to think of it, I'm not sure if any of my Macs are from China proper.

  • back then it was 5000 since it was only 2003.

  • whats the music at 3:40?

  • That's the theme from "The Magnificent Seven."

  • Go to 3:45 to skip all the boring bullshit in the beginning

  • thanks for the info

  • Boy will they feel stupid the day someone shows them how beer cans can be opened on the top.

  • if this video sums up his video editing skills it was $5k wasted.

  • Hell probably enjoy his new, free, G5 computer.

  • every thought of selling your g4 to get the g5, thus you wold not need as much money ???

  • i was thinking the same thing but hey he got the money so it worked

  • great video still sad about the death of G4

  • @somorastik now, quad-core mac pros are only 2,499 and are much faster... :P

  • whats the song called?

  • Peter gun, also reused on the blues brothers theme.

  • lol, potential fire in the hole!

  • What's the music they play when they shoot the computer?

  • The theme from the Magnificent Seven?

  • Yep, that's the theme from "The Magnificent Seven" all right. The song used when they're getting their supplies is "Ready to Die" by Andrew WK.

  • could of recycled it and gave it to me

  • LMFAO!!

  • Everyone needs a friend like Phil

  • what was the name is the song at the begging

  • The song at the beginning is "Popcorn" by Popcorn.

  • What i can say is LoL

  • Did he forget to retrieve his data?

  • So, did people donate money to help someone get a new computer? Or did they donate a quarter to the worthy cause of blowing up a Mac? You decide. Either way, the outcome is great.

  • this video is the best

  • Lol,Great!

  • Massive angry computernerd

  • Did you turn off the sound and your monitor while looking at the video? He killed his old G4.

  • Not only that, but did you watch part 1? Basicly, this G4 was from 2000. He paid 10,000. With the debt he worked him self into, he couldnt buy a G5. He needed it to use final cut 5 (most recent one at time of video) and asked for donations. He blew this one up in exchange for 5,000.

  • thrj

  • LOL! What a dirty way to get rid of your old stuff!

  • Who wants pez?

    I WANT PEZ :(

  • i cant belive that worked. I'd love to try this. Fuck it for $5000 ill blow up just about anything. Give me 8k and ill blow up a car LOL.

  • i can give youa quarter, just tell me where to send it

  • whats the song when it goes black and white just before you blow it up?

  • whats great is I got to see this video and did not have to donate any money. : )

  • THIS WAS SHEER BRILLIANCE! but i expected a much bigger explosion though. shame, but it was still brill.

  • ne1 want to chat?

  • no way in fuck would give him money .. i could of had the g4

  • this is tha e most genius idea ever, i'm gonna try it!

  • Wow, for a second there I thought he meant he got the $5,000 and then bought the G5, and then blew up the G5.

    *whew*

    Because nobody wants another "smash my _____" asshole running around.

  • jajaja no

  • This dude has to be a genius he made

    he got 20,000 people to give him money with a video he bummed 5,000 dollars!

  • That's funny

  • everyone who posts negative spit are just angry because they aren't as smart as this guy

  • This was the best fucking clip ever, worth the donation others made, every penny!!!!

  • You're really talented bud, good job! lol

  • I agree, if he managed to get himself a slight computer upgrade FOR FREE (though, honestly, I know very little about Macs) and then didn't give it to someone less fortunate... it just bothers me.

  • a slight upgrade ?

    Thats like saying adding the USA To Europe is a small upgrade

  • I've worked on professional videos in the past and I'm very familiar with the programs Vinnie uses so I can understand why he needed a G5 (this video was made before the Mac Pro was released in August 2007.)

    Furthermore, there are two things that sell in Hollywood: The first is sex and the second is explosions. Vinnie opted for the latter in a humorous and tasteful manner, and his G4 became a pretty awesome prop for this video. I give it five stars for creativity and ingenuity.

  • august 2006 ;)

  • D'oh! You're right, that was a stupid typo on my part. The August 2006 model was the first Mac Pro, labeled MacPro1,1; there was a minor bump (8-Cores standard/"Clovertown" CPUs) in August '07, and while Apple labeled these machines "MacPro2,1" they still considered them part of the "Early 2006" model line. The next update was the MacPro3,1 in (February?) 2008, and the MacPro4,1 in (March?) 2009. We're due for the MacPro5,1 anytime now. :D

  • I would bet that he gutted it and replaced with junk parts.But oh well,ain't much different than the guy who sold a paper clip.

  • I'm sorry Vinnie that um I am not gonna give anything just cause of the fact that there is tons of people that crappier computers and your gonna just blow up yours instead of giving it to someone with of lesser opportunity in life I'm sorry but if you ask for money then don't give yours away then People shouldn't be helping you FAIL

  • luckily he doesn't need your whining, he already got the g5, way to try to be a conscientious objector, FAIL

  • That's the same computer I have....

  • I WAHNTED THAT LOL

  • It should have been a iMac... Because now, it would have been an iTrash hahahah

  • ya, a g5 imac

  • should have sold it on ebay

  • wheres the music from before he shots?

  • can somebody help me and give me the song lalala by atep i just dont find it message me pls

  • now its idestroyed

  • this video is best

  • hey (lol) if you are so wasteful with these things,would you ship me some this computer before you damage it?:-D thanks.

  • Quite sad for the environment.

  • Well, at least the processor was saved...

  • e-waste everywhere!

  • because macs are overpriced pieces of shit... you need to ask for ridiculous ammounts of money from tons of different people

  • I gave it a one star hoping that it will drive down the popularity of this stupid video. I can't believe the fucking moron blew up a Macintosh for money ... WHORE!!!

  • Cant be that popular, the new disturbed song got mor hits then this in week and its been here for 2 years

  • Cool video, I agree though that was stupid to blow it up.. As much as I like explosions, I would have sold it to get even more money. Find some sucker to buy a G4. Macs rule.

  • uoi bunch of sick basterds! that was a perfekly working g4 you should shoot yourselfs!!!

  • macs are just pure garbage every g4 you blow helps save global warming

  • what is the name of the song?

  • Theme to Magnificent Seven...I believe...

  • The other whistle song is "Whistle Stop" by Roger Miller...but don't quote me on that

  • hahaa wicked:D

  • whats the song called?

  • really stupid thing you've done!!!!

    dare ya!
