How long can you make it before you pause? I made it 56 seconds. Breckon lasted 20.

Post your times in the comments below. The first person to honestly make it all the way through--and yes, I will know if you're lying--will receive some type of special recognition for their, er, dedication. Yeah, dedication, that's it.

If I was watching it unchallenged, I would have closed it within the first 10 seconds, but I can withstand the torture when challenged. My eyes were starting to burn though, and by the end I had one eye shut and barely peeking through the other eye.

I made it as far as 2:07, I gave it an honest effort. For a while I was trying to decipher the lyrics before I realized it was that Simlish language they use in the game. That was rather clever, I thought.
