a party. A few of these might have even been especially big and wild, with fifty or even one hundred people attending. However, unless you count Franklin Street, I doubt any of us have ever been to a party as big and wild as the one in this Youtube video featuring Australian teen Corey Worthington, or Corey Delaney, depending on which source you want to believe.After his parents went out of town, he decided to have a house party with some of his "mates," and things got just a little out of hand. Before long, 500 people showed up and proceeded to trash his neighborhood as well as police cars that arrived on the scene. In the end, Corey ended up being faced with a $20,000 fine to cover the damages caused by his party.
All of this commotion led to Corey's fifteen minutes of fame as he was later interviewed on a news channel about his party, which is where the actual video comes from. I think I need to set the stage a bit before I describe this verbal exchange. Corey is wearing oversized yellow glasses, a bright multi-colored baseball cap, and unbuttoned camouflage jacket showing his nipple ring, and he has shaggy, bleached blond hair: exactly as pictured above. The anchorwoman, who seems very offended about Corey's lack of remorse, repeatedly questions him about his thought process leading up to the party. When this doesn't satisfy her, she insists that Corey tak
e off his sunglasses and apologize to everyone who he wronged. He refuses to take off his glasses, claiming that they are famous. Why, you might ask? Well, all of us soon learn the answer because the anchorwoman asks that very question. "Because everyone likes them," he explains.Desperate to score some sort of moral point against this unruly teen, the anchorwoman asks Corey what he would say to other kids who are thinking of having a party while their parents are away. His response? "Get me to do it for you. Best party so far, that's what everybody's been saying." However, she just can't let it go. Before ending the interview, she suggests to Corey that he should go and take a good, hard look at himself. Not to be put down by this woman even once, Corey reveals that he already has."I have," he says. "Everyone has. They love it."

This video is undeniably a guaranteed laugh. One, this 15-year old Aussie is a legend for being able to pull of a 500 person party and not even feel worried about the consequences. Two, his pompous personality unveils the characteristics every teenager wants to have. He’s disrespectful and obnoxious but its hilarious because his actions are so absurd, i.e. not recognizing his disrespectful personality and advising his peers to ask him to throw parties for them.
Although its funny his outfit attire is questionable. Bleach blond hair, fur-hooded jacket, yellow glasses, and a single nipple piercing…that wardrobe translates to a collection of questionable party attendees. Nevertheless the news anchor’s gathered frustration for this disobedient young man makes the video very entertaining to watch. But the best part is that they sound funny with the Aussie accents!
I thought this video was funny but I find it sort of hard to believe that all this actually happened. It all just seems too epic to actually have been real. Also, I'm pretty sure that the news anchor's behavior would be considered inappropriate by most serious new sources. Maybe inappropriate is the wrong word, but I always got the impression that reporters were supposed to, you know, report facts with as little bias as possible, as opposed to trying to win a moral victory, passing judgment on others, and telling people to take off their glasses and say "sorry".
