Goatse reactions caught on tape

Flickr set of people seeing Goatse photo for the first time : I would not have so blatantly copied this link from Boing Boing but this Flickr set is just way too funny to pass up.

As a note, two of the pictures in the Flickr set are probably not safe for work, as the kids say. One contains a dust rendering of Goaste and the other contains a MILF upskirt of some sort.

Tubgirl is gross enough that I wouldn't want to look at it, but it's not ohmygod-look-away-as-quickly-as-possible gross like goatse, which took me like 5 or 6 viewings to get somewhat desensitized to.

This is brilliant. Saw it earlier, and discussed how awesome it would be to someone feed a picture of Goatse into my friends' new 52" tv as we gather to watch a football game this weekend:
Me: A shot of six people jaws agape
Me: looking at an ass agape
Friend: ahh...the symmetry.
Me: Is it live or is it Goatse?

This site proves once again that the human face has a truly remarkable capacity for elasticity and expressiveness. It's really quite incredible -- no two reactions are the same, and yet we understand how each one is an indication of shock/repulsion/horror/what-have-you. It's an almost unparalleled instrument of communication. Except for, you know, speech and writing.

you know, I can see what would make someone think that Ron Jeremy has seen some crazy shit in his life. However, I think it bears mentioning that being a porn star doesn't prepare one all that much for seeing inside prolapsed and/or incredibly stretched rectums.
in mr jeremy's case in particular, it's worth mentioning that he IS the thing which most people are referring to when they say that they've seen some crazy shit. the guy looks like a hedgehog, fucks while asleep (not kidding. seen footage of it. it's funny.) cums at the count of 10 and is still doing porn when he's past 50 - by which age some people are grandparents.

This one has to be my favorite. It's so subtle. At first you think there is no real reaction at all. Then you notice that the corners of her mouth are turned up and assume she's smiling, or maybe laughing. But then you look into her eyes...
