John Oliver Makes the Shortest Videos Possible to Celebrate Leap Second

John Oliver is going to finally take us all the way to the end of the micro-video trend. Forget 20 minute videos, those went out years ago. Forget the instagram 15 second video, or the vine six second video. John Oliver has invented the one second video.

And here’s why.  Last night, on Last Week Tonight, Oliver told us that Tuesday night just before midnight, you are getting a free extra second added to your day. It only happens once every few years, and John Oliver and the entire cast and crew of Last Week Tonight don’t want you to waste it.

So John has created an entire website devoted to helping you enjoy one perfect extra second, with one second video clips. Go to spendyourleapsecondhere.com for a countdown clock, and some of the greatest one second videos you could possibly imagine, like one second sloth making a weird sound, and Mariah Carey’s dog and cat fighting during a Cribs episodes and Bobby Carnivale yelling “Leap Second!” Don’t wait till Tuesday, start making more of your seconds now.
