This kid must have the shortest attention span ever recorded

10/9/2012

Who says today's kids have declining attention spans due to our fast-paced, stimulation-packed world? OK, well after watching this video, we have to admit the cultural critics might be on to something. The views for this short clip, and we do mean short (we're talking two seconds), have skyrocketed in recent days. The scene is picturesque as a man and a kid play whiffle ball, but at the last second, literally, the youngster loses interest, drops the bat and decides to go check out another part of the park. Sums up a generation nicely. And it would have been nice if the video's poster had an attention span too, and gave us more than just two seconds.
