More kids break PSPs. With firecrackers. And guns.

Kids these days enjoy blowing up stuff. YouTube is filled with kids pretending to be cool by destroying things that they bought with their parents' hard-earned money. Here are two videos that act as proof that Americans really aren't the brightest people in the world. The first video features a kid blowing up Gangs of London (with firecrackers). This is somewhat forgiveable, maybe even acceptable, considering how awful that game is.

The second video truly frightens me. We've seen our share of PSPs being destroyed, but there's something truly hideous about the genuine glea these kids seem to be exhibiting. The video's after the cut, and features some harsh language.

To the PSP's credit, it seems like they had a pretty rough time breaking it. It saddens me to think that our children have grown up to find entertainment in such immaturity. Jack Thompson, if you're listening, I have one thing to say to you: if these kids played Grand Theft Auto, they'd realize how good the system is, and they wouldn't go on such a violent rampage. Food for thought.

Again, WHY POST THIS? You just handed the little wannabe thug all the attention he so obviously craves - and isn't getting from mommy & daddy.

This, plus all the other broken, shattered PSP vids/pics and the dumbass fanboy chat session that was posted, what gives? It's not interesting, it's not news, it's not worth the bandwidth.

I've said before how good a job you and Chris do, but this just isn't worthy of this or any other site except maybe 'America's Biggest F*cktard Videos'.

Eh, people are spoiled in this country of mine. See, now for me, I worked hard for my PSP, and I bought it with my money.
Destroying it, is certainly a thought that has never and will never, cross my mind.

Why destroy? Why not just give them to someone who wants them? Or sell them or something.

That video fails they forgot to say "Welcome to JAckass".

I have suspect they stole the PSP and they they blow it up.What a waste of good hardware i mean a gb micro or a ds well no one will miss that,but a PSP those kids deserve a good biatch slapping.

By the way can some one give me the adress to the 'America's Biggest F*cktard Videos'? maybe i can send this crap to get some bucks and use it to buy a Nintendo DS and blow it up,record it and send it to 'America's Biggest F*cktard Videos' for more cash.

But i dont thing they get to be 40yr old virgins like loner45 mentioned i think they will die in stupid attempts of "coolness" using skateboards trying to
appear on Mtv or in a school shoot probalby drunken or doing something really stupid.

Wow...both were pretty lame. First kid couldn't even blow it up right, second one seemed to have some posers trying to be cool by making a crappy video of them "attempting" to destroy a PSP, which they couldn't even do right. All the really did was mess up the screen. Should've fired like roman candles at it, not just a BB gun. Make it blow up or something. They should take a lesson from Xplay about how to destroy a system.

Well that was a waste of money, destroying a psp for fun? wow, Thats what idiots do. I mean why waste 250 dollars to make something unusable, it's basically like paying 250 for a brick or just wasteing money, who gives these people these things, they don't seem to deserve them if the only good for them they have is to destroy it. Sickens me what people do for fun these days.
Player1 it is a demo disc, i got mine. Alot of people have theres.

I watched both of those expecting a real gun to be used :(

I'm surprised poor kids in a trailer could afford a BB/Pellet gun and a PSP to destroy.

why should these mental paralympians stop at PSPs or other electronics? why not show the same glee torturing cats and small animals and graduate to full blown assault on some random kid at a bus stop playing with his PSP? Then for the coup de gras, off each other in some bizarre homoerotic murder suicide pact? oh well at least the whole way they can be sure they're "keepin it gangsta!" and we'd be less a few more retards breathing up all my air.

ps. fingerless wool gloves don't make you look hard, just homeless.
