Doing my morning surf I came across this. Saw the video (Sexy Sumo) on another blog and it's hilarious/somewhat disgusting. A direct quote:

"Shockvertising - Fake Murder, Sexy Sumo, Angelina Jolie and Halloween (VIDEO)

* Trend Hunter

Made Popular: 3 hours ago - Fake lesbians, murder advertising, sexy sumo wrestlers, naughty surrealism and punching employees. Shockvertising is not a new tool, but the viral nature of the blogosphere is making ‘shock’ more popular than ever before."

From the movie screen to the television screen and all media environs - sex, violence and murder exported to invade minds, gentle and dysfunctional alike. The circle of cause and effect can no longer be clearly defined.

It seems though, that a loved and well-adjusted individual may ride the waves of violence as spectator while the insecure may embrace it and reach out to tip the lifeboat of anyone who crosses their path.
