Afternoon Delight: The Chat Roulette version of Miley Cyrus’ Wrecking Ball is hilarious and disturbing at the same time

And you thought the original Wrecking Ball music video was hard to watch?

Fancy some Afternoon Delight from Ron Burgundy and the Channel 4 News Team? Well reader, you’re in for a treat…

And you thought the original Wrecking Ball music video was hard to watch?

From what we’ve heard (because we’ve never been on the site… honest), if you log onto Chat Roulette you should be prepared for some very dodgy viewing material… amongst what we’re sure are very above board and interesting discussions between users of the site, of course.

Viewing material doesn’t come much dodgier than a scantily-clad (and, at times, completely naked) bearded man re-enacting the infamous Wrecking Ball music video by Miley Cyrus, which is the surprise that outlandish comedian Steve Kardynal had in store for some unsuspecting Chat Roulette users recently.

The reactions, as you might expect, range from those who looked on in sheer shock and alarm to others who laughed and willingly joined in on the act but as long as you know what’s coming, it’s pretty funny to watch and we’re obviously not the only ones who think so as the clip has garnered well over nine million views on YouTube since it was uploaded yesterday.

In fairness to Kardynal, he’s had viral success this with this type of thing before, including the outrageously and some might say inexplicably popular Call me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen, so he knows what twerks, works, sorry.

This Breaking News story was brought to you by Ron Burgundy and the Channel 4 News Team, the stars of Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues, in Irish cinemas December 18th.
