"2,747 Toothpicks in My Beard"
Hey, man, if you can get 2,000 toothpicks in your beard, why stop there? Reach for the stars. Try for 3,000. For this one bearded fella, one of life's fun little side projects is getting his chin hairs stuffed with little wooden sticks and having his wife document the feat on video. And, of course, sharing that video on YouTube. Why? Hmmm. Probably better not to ask. Today's video lunch has 2,747 toothpicks...but, sorry--not a one is holding a half a sandwich together.
