YouTubers Steve Kardynal and Alex Negrete filmed themselves being rained down upon with foods in their recent viral video called ‘Raining Food.’ In it, a variety of foods and condiments fall upon their heads and get all over their faces.
Steve and Alex are ironically asking for donations to be made to Action Against Hunger, which is an organization committed to world hunger-relief. They will be donating “a large portion of the profits” they receive from the views to the organization too.
Some of the food that is tossed onto their faces includes everything from omelette ingredients like eggs, chopped ham, shredded cheese and diced onions to sweets like banana cream pie, liquorice and sour cream. The video is quite comical because it is completely filmed in slow-motion.
