The interesting thing about the internet is that if you do something completely original and out of the ordinary, success will surely follow. But an unspoken rule also says the chances of being copied are extraordinarily high.
You know what they say, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. So the sexy Australian girls from SketchShe must be feeling very good about themselves right now. Two of their Youtube videos have already racked up over 20 million views, and that's saying something. So a couple of Russian comedians decided to make their own version.
Say hello to Bonia and Kuzmich, whom you might remember from last year, when they made a parody of Kiesza's Hideaway. Anyway, only about 50% of the songs they chose to lip-sync are familiar, there rest being either Russian or really weird.
Kuzmich seems to be a very good driver though, as he has no problem letting go of the wheel and even taking his eyes off the road. Remember, SketchShe did their video while the car was standing completely still.
And have you ever seen a man drive a car while tied up, blindfolded and gagged? We did, just a second ago, and the crazy Russian bride seemed genuinely terrifying.
Giving that 1% of extra viral flavor is the old man in the back. He's just like the lovable bold guy in Benny Hill sketches or Mini Me – it just wouldn't be the same without him.
Editor's note: After they've finished filming, the Russian trio celebrated with what looks like… goat milk in a jar. Oh, and in case you're wondering, we think the car is a Golf 5 or 6.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
