John Hill and Micah Schraft were testing out their flip cam the day after Thanksgiving and captured a very funny, and heartwarming moment.
Update 3/12/10: The video appears to have been made private. Perhaps the guys who posted it were overwhelmed by the amount of attention it was receiving. I’m leaving the original video embedded here in case they change their minds and make it public again, I hope they do because it was a wonderful video. Many people in the comments section of their YouTube page and on other blogs talked about how they showed it to parents, loved ones and coworkers, and some even said it made them cry. Evan at Truth Wins Out transcribed the video before it was taken down, so I’ve included that after the break if you’re interested.
Text onscreen: Thanksgiving.
[Calen, a little boy, is standing in a bathroom next to a sink, looking up into the camera.]
Calen: A husband’s a boy.
Adult male voice from behind camera: Right.
Calen: A wife is a girl and a husband’s a boy. Then you two are husbands! [He hold up two fingers on both hands.] Wifes are girls; husbands are boys.
Voice from behind camera: Right.
Second adult male voice, from next to camera: That’s right. So, if you’re a boy—
Calen: You’ll be a husband.
Second Voice: Right.
First Voice: Yeah, we’re both husbands.
Calen: [puts his head in his hand] You’re both husbands?
Second Voice: Is that confusing—
Calen: You married each other?! That’s funny! [slaps hand to head]
Second Voice: That’s funny, right?
Calen: Yeah. [looks thoughtful] I usually see husbands and wives, but this is the VERY FIRST TIME I saw husbands and husbands! [grins excitedly]
[The two men laugh; Second Voice peers around and grins into camera.]
Calen: So funny. [edit] So that means you LOVE EACH OTHER!
First Voice: Yeah.
Calen: Yeah. Yeah, they’re much alike. You’re much alike. Hey, I’m going to play ping-pong now.
First Voice: Okay.
[Camera follows Calen out into the hallway; he turns back and looks at the two men.]
Calen: You can play if you want to.
Text onscreen: You’re much alike.
