Every now and then, a hero rises from obscurity to lift up the human race.

Today I was introduced to this man, Jon Lajoie.

First a little backstory from his bio...

Jon Lajoie, born and raised in Montreal, Canada, is third in a family of nine children. He graduated from Dawson College's theatre/ninja assassin program in 2001, and immediately started booking assassination work, incidentally putting his acting career on the back burner. Between 2001 and 2007 Jon Lajoie assassinated (in a ninja-like fashion) an estimated 40,000 people, and an estimated 9000 fish. (In early 2004 demand for assassanation was low, so for 3 months, he held a part-time job as a fisherman.)

In June of 2007, he decided to start making videos and posting them on the internets. The videos were so well received that he put "assassinating people in a ninja-like fashion" on hold, and began getting drunk all the time. A few months later he decided to get drunk only once in a while and to restart making videos.

Behold, Everyday Normal Guy
