Monday Kickstart: We need a Yrjö

Finnish solar power company Helen has a new series of ads—which, for some reason, are in English—featuring spokesman Yrjö. And Yrjö is fucking hilarious. Here he explains the company's new slogan.



The link above has three other commercials they've created with Yrjö. This guy needs his own TV show. I guarantee it lasts longer than that Geico caveman show. Though that's not really saying much.

Let's go.

Head Shot

FAIL.

Last month we saw a soccer player drop his team's championship trophy in front of the truck they were celebrating on, causing it to get run over. And now this.

From Puck Daddy:

You may remember Pasi Nurminen from his three-season stint (2001-04) as a goalie with the Atlanta Thrashers. But from this day forward, Pasi Nurminen will be known as the Finland goalie coach who fell off the stairs while deplaning and slammed head-first into his team's IIHF world championship trophy...

...It's this network's contention that his noggin actually dented the trophy. Which. Is. Awesome. (Especially because Nurminen wasn't injured in the fall.)
