I can't imagine the amount of concentration it must have taken to walk backwards and sing the lyrics backwards, AND to do both tasks so well that it looks and sounds nearly seamless played forwards. So awesome + awesome = what, super awesome?

In a different video, weird Al explains that that is a real wooden structure that could’ve killed him had he been standing in the wrong spot. It was a single take, it really fell on him, and they had to get all the exact measurements to make sure it didn’t hit him. He said he was trying to create what they used to do an older movies but they didn’t want to use cardboard or something flimsy, so it’s real.

according to his website even now Al isn't really sure what went wrong, but he sent an immediate letter of apology which wasn't answered. none of the royalty checks came back though. However, apparently Coolio came up and chatted with him at the 2006 Consumer Electronics show. Al later said he was surprised as anyone but it was very civil and joked that he doesn't think he'll ever be invited Coolio's birthday party but now feels like he can walk out of the house without a bulletproof vest.

Yeah i saw an interview with Coolio from like 11 years ago where he talked about it. He said that back then he was basically high on his own supply in being enamored with himself at being a celebrity and was upset that he felt like everyone went behind his back because the label approved it without his knowledge. But the more he thought about it, the more he realized how stupid he was being because Weird Al is a legend and Michael Jackson never got mad at being parodied, and is he really better than Michael Jackson? That realization is when he decided to apologize to Weird Al.
