Jimmy Fallon and Paul Rudd became king of illusions when they put on a shot-for-shot remake of the 80s and 90s music videos – hockey players, ballet dancers, and all.
These guys have a long history of weirdness. They remade Styx’s 1981 jam “Too Much Time On My Hands” and launched into an epic lip sync battle.
