YMMV / Buttered Side Down

  • Crosses the Line Twice: In Cheating Death, the protagonist swallows a watermelon whole and begins to choke. It takes a full 2 minutes for The Grim Reaper to show up. He manages to get the watermelon out using the Grim Reaper's scythe. Amused, they decide to eat the watermelon together. However, the Grim Reaper begins choking on the watermelon and dies in only 8 seconds. The fact that the protagonist lasted so long while The Grim Reaper dies so quickly is deliciously ironic and can result in a good laugh.
  • Nightmare Fuel: The Making Candy Corn episode was released for Halloween, so as you can imagine it's pretty spooky. The protagonist runs out of candy corn tries to make candy corn out of corn, sugar and paint and ends up creating an Eldritch Abomination that disappears into the walls, then tries to rearrange the atoms in a pile of rocks to create candy corn, which results in a small nuclear explosion, tries going back in time to get candy corn from himself and ends up creating a Stable Time Loop, returning to the future to find his own corpse having died of starvation trying to make candy corn, then finally concocts a witch's brew that turns his body into candy corn. However, our hero doesn't seem all that bothered by it.
  • Visual Effects of Awesome: The special effects for each video are amazing. FIDGET SPINNER ALIENS is one of the best examples, handling the kind of effects you normally need entire Hollywood teams for excellently even if there's a few small stumbles.
