[Oeconomist]

The abstract noun derived from "detest" is "detestation", not itself "detest".

[mrrobertrees]

I never knew that.

[NewAgeNewDay]

Can't knock the fist-bump, unless you are FAUX news LOL

[heknowsitall]

@NewAgeNewDay tell that to the 4mm who will never work again

[Nireves33]

Holy shit this video!

[ThatBoyRaym]

at 38 second is that Ron Paul??? I think it is!

[Raao1]

It comes from afro - american tipes of hand shakes, wich comes from native african hand shakes. I saw two native bushmens doing a hand shake. Slap, bump, just like in bronks :)

Africa is the source

[ThatBoyRaym]

Your telling this for.....?

Anyway good info just seems curious as to why your telling me this?

[Raao1]

Whell I want it to be a separate comment, but I answer you. I am telling this because it's not true that the "fist bump" originates from baseball players. It came from africans tribe hand shakes, watch two "brothers" from the gheto how they shake hands - african tradition. :)

[gaarakills447]

I love Jonny's time at the end where he was like 'I think I was pressured into it, I think it was cool at the time and now i'm addicted'

[Ci187]

[cqsallie]

[Dustin4494]

[krenfrorobeau]

Mark, it's absolutely serious. Just like me.

[MarkTheBasketball]

i cant tell if this is a joke or not

[marker2034]

without the fist bump i would be here today...

[dceb5]

I think Gomes and Crawford are actually referring to what they did to Coco Crisp.

[Revelde20]

The fist bump safe my life! as insane as it sounds it is true ..if u don't belive me ..you can ask my mom!

[gallomex13]

I'll ask her tonight;)

[tjh31993]

great vid! great great baseball

[dockdrop2]

"i thought it was cool at the time and now im addicted" :P LOL

[brakbudy]

This is actually pretty good. I was expecting an actual, serious history of the fist bump (considering who linked this to me) put together by some douche with way too much time, reading way too much into the whole thing, but thank god there's some humour in it!

[Bshelton18]

"I wouldnt be around today without the fist bump" Hahaha that guy is funny

[AnimaniacZero]

This is pretty good.

[alexoc949]

what a bunch of left wing garbage propaganda, The tampa bay devil rays are clearly a terrorist organization sending secret anti-american signals in hopes of corrupting this great nation. I call for a boycott of all ballpark frankfurters and the burning of any hats that have an association with the "sport" of baseball.

john mccain 2008 and 2012

[b00bious]

Is that sarcasm or are you dead serious?

[alexoc949]

one thing i did forget to throw in there was the sarcasm tag.. i like how i got a negative 5 on it...so much irony there

[spartangirl]

It's kinda sad that you would even have to put a sarcasm tag on it. LOL

[alexoc949]

you're tellin me. crazy, right

[nytquil1]

According to FOX news, anyone engaging in fist bump is a terrorist!

[jimdelriobkr]

"According to FOX news, anyone engaging in fist bump is a terrorist!"

Yep, nytquil1, and any woman who wears a scarf, and anyone who believes in higher education, and... well, hell... Just about anyone not white, fat and who doesn't support George Bush.

Go BASEBALL. No politics. All American.

[WhatDoUThinkOfThat]

daps!

[jsnt]

The Rays are terrorists!

[LENWOIS]

Ha ha! This is true, especially the sanitary thing. I've been disappointed though, some people greet me with an open palm (hi-five) when I approach with a fist bump. I blame the faulty education system.

[Mayion23]

That Old man looks like Ron Paul

[TheExpendables420]

ohh sh$&!!!hahaha it does!!!!!!LOL!!!

[brittanysiscoe]

ITS CALLED "POUNDING" lol white people are so corny! but this shit is funny tho.

[dejahthoris]

us whiteys got schooled on what the fist bump is and now we are proud to be americans!

[hdforbes]

Doc, this is really really funny! Some of your best work.

[ichabod5]

"I wouldn't be where i am today without the fist bump."

Not only illuminating, but intrinsically fascinating. Another home run production by Mr. Dougherty -- pun intended.
