Video: Jimmy Kimmel Ruins Christmas

Before Christmas, Jimmy Kimmel announced on his L.A.-based late-night talk show a YouTube Challenge for parents seeking revenge on their children. Parental viewers were encouraged "to wrap a terrible Christmas gift, give it to their kids and then tape their reaction when they open the gift," said Kimmel during "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"

The response was huge. Cutting together some of the best posted videos into one compilation, the show featured hilarious family moments of extreme Christmas disappointment. Since its launch on December 12, "I Gave My Kids a Terrible Present" has been viewed over 15 million times. The youngins' reactions are a mix of joy and horror.

The challenged wrapped on December 15, but parents continued to post videos - hundreds more videos. So, Kimmel did what any late-night talk show host would do; he had his team produce another mashup of the vids in "I Gave My Kids a Terrible Present PART 2."

We howled along with the audience while watching both highlight reels, especially when a polite young boy asks his parents to tell Jimmy Kimmel, "Suck my balls."
