Let it commence.

[Mad Max]

Alex Klein is over.

Nail in the coffin with this one

Klein is such a choch

D.O.A.
Death of Alex Klein

[weregoingunion]

i like how alex klein is straight up lying to everyone & all the other people interviewed are like "nah, that's not how it happened at all."

fucking NERD.

good to hear what the contestants had to say too.

[Stoop Kid]

Damn thats shitty that Alex Klein just bounced with the tapes. What a scumbag.

[wario]

It has been said that the HD filmers were super hard to work with.. was that true?

MATT: They were not skateboarders and were just were getting in our faces and shit. Getting real annoying, asking us questions mid conversation and just making it awkward. One night we were all drinking a bunch of beers and Joseph was pissed off. All the HD dudes didn?t skate, they wore Vans when they came to shoot, and then left them there every night and put on their like, dress shoes or whatever they had. So Joseph takes all this sauce and random shit and puts it in the HD filmers shoes. And the next day, they come in, see their messed up Vans, but nobody said anything. It was so funny. Joseph was like, fuck those guys and just did it.


hhahahahahahaaaaa

[dankradschwag]

good read, bummed to hear there actually wasn't almost a fight.

[???]

Part of me wonders if this is all part of a bigger hoax. Knowing they cannot top a personality like Forrest Edwards, they blow the contest so bad that people still talk about it. It keeps OIAM on everyone's lips....well, at least on the SLAP boards.

[Big Skatefase]

fuck alex klein

I didn't know Mike Hubert was involved. What did he do?




And of course: fuck Alex Klein.

I liked how they all answered the question about it being a parody pretty much the same

I had this same thought. Straight up intentional Hindenburg.

[victor333]

let the conspiracy theories begin

[lamfordie]

Damn, those were some harsh words. I wonder after all this bullshit will they do the show again. Hopefully they will do it better.

now THAT would be a joke

[shit_for_brains]

if they do another OIAM, and colin isn't running it, the whole thing is pointless.

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

You know what makes Klein seem really stupid? He claims there wasn't another personality like Forrest- Joseph seemed like he did more than enough hillarious, awesome, and dramatic shit to make a show about.
I'm so on Team Joseph.
My favorite part was actually this:
JOSH: There was one moment that I clearly remember. When I did gap 50-50 on the black hubba, and then Mikey did the gap 5-0 after me. Afterwards, Alex is like, ?I heard that you were super bummed when Mikey did that 5-0.? I was like nah, it was cool, he?s my friend, why would I be upset about him doing a trick? And he?s like, ?that?s not what I heard, I heard you were super upset!? Basically he was trying to get me to talk shit about Mikey. And everyone got along with each other, there was no problems at all. Alex wanted to start drama with us, but there was no one to do it because everyone was super cool.

Poor Alex Klein probably thought they were brats because they were just way too positive to work with.

It doesn't take a genius to put together a successful OIAM.


Get some dudes, gets some pros to volunteer a little of their time, take the kids to spots =

I would watch


Then again, something like that would probably only appeal to skaters.

[trannies and mannies]

I highly doubt they are gonna do another OIAM this year, but I hope they do.

100% agree, if alex klein would have left the format untouched, i'm sure there would be plenty of comedic gold in joseph's antics, not to mention a lot of solid skating

In retrospect, he had some pretty colorful characters.

Going into it, he probably just had the mentality he was going to get a bunch of dull, lifeless, skate robots or some shit, and he had the whole system already thought out. Those poor bastards never had a chance

The only thing about that is, probably 9 out of 10 people saw the first elimination said "meh, this sucks" and never really even thought about it again

To an extent that is probably true, I stopped watching after the barrel jumps and then when I heard the contest was shut down, I watched the remaining episodes.

[Fairy Boy]

I didn't know Mike Hubert was involved. What did he do?

[Zurg]

its funny, i think by attempting to create tension between the contestants he actually brought them closer together by sharing the distaste for him and the show

[trannies and mannies]

Mike Hubert - the guy from Shake Junt?
