On youtube.com, do a search for Peter Tomarken, and there's a funny clip of Peter dancing... word of caution... on that same page is another clip titled "One last Whammy"... best be avoided for all die hard Tomarken and PYL fans.

Hmm. I wonder if this is the first instance of the break dancing whammy. You can tell Peter is sort of thinking, "What the hell is this?"

Indeed a pretty funny clip.

I don't know how to react to that.  It seems that this person might have meant well, but at the same time, there are sensitive folks out there, and the person who put that up might want to be careful in the future.

The clip seems to me like it's essentially making fun of Peter's death. Regardless of whether or not the creator (who apparently is among us) meant well, the result was very tasteless.

I love how in the comments section, whoever posted the video responds to a complaint with the childish "Don't watch it".
"They're both Norman Jewison movies, Troy, but we did think of one Jew more famous than Tevye."

Now celebrating his 22nd season on GSF!

I don't know how to react to that.  [/quote] I do. It was sickening and childish.

Not the vibe I got, that's for sure.

[/quote] It was completely that. Frankly, I would fear for the guy's safety, knowing how rabid some of the fans are.
If you didn’t create it, it isn’t your content.

Now all this discussion has me wanting to know what happened in the "Last Whammy" video, but I'm afraid I'd rather not actually watch it. What's so offensive about it?

Starts with a black screen with something about Peter deciding to "Press His Luck" one last time. Enter PYL board, then the "Plane Crash" Whammy animation.
