Comedian Kevin Hart has to be one of the hardest working people in showbiz. Recently, he’s starred in The Secret Life of Pets, Central Intelligence, and Ride Along 2, and now he’s promoting a concert film shot in a football stadium. To show the world how he keeps up with his hectic Hollywood life, he invited late-night host Conan O’Brien to his local CrossFit gym, resulting in one of the most hilarious workout comeptitions ever filmed.
In the clip above, Hart shows that he’s no stranger to the gym by ripping off consecutive pushups while O’Brien hilariously asks Hart to push on his “taint” to keep him above the bar. This sparks a competition between the two men over who’s the most fit. O’Brien ribs Hart for not actually filling a football stadium in his concert film while Hart says O’Brien has “the body of a Dutch woman.” In the end, the video proves how two of America’s most likeable comedians can turn into complete tools after stepping into a CrossFit gym.
Grieving couple comforting each other
This response to someone grieving a friend might be the best internet comment ever
When someone is hit with the sudden loss of a friend or loved one, words rarely feel like enough. Yet, more than a decade ago, a wise Redditor named GSnow shared thoughts so profound they still bring comfort to grieving hearts today.
Originally posted around 2011, the now-famous reply was rediscovered when Upvoted, an official Reddit publication, featured it again to remind everyone of its enduring truth. It began as a simple plea for help: “My friend just died. I don't know what to do.”
What followed was a piece of writing that many consider one of the internet’s best comments of all time. It remains shared across social media, grief forums, and personal messages to this day because its honesty and metaphor speak to the raw reality of loss and the slow, irregular path toward healing.
Below is GSnow’s full reply, unchanged, in all its gentle, wave-crashing beauty:
Why this advice still matters
Mental health professionals and grief counselors often describe bereavement in stages or phases, but GSnow’s “wave theory” gives an image more relatable for many. Rather than a linear process, grief surges and retreats—sometimes triggered by a song, a place, or a simple morning cup of coffee.
In recent years, this metaphor has found renewed relevance. Communities on Reddit, TikTok, and grief support groups frequently reshare it to help explain the unpredictable nature of mourning.
Many readers say this analogy helps them feel less alone, giving them permission to ride each wave of grief rather than fight it.
Finding comfort in shared wisdom
Since this comment first surfaced, countless people have posted their own stories underneath it, thanking GSnow and passing the words to others facing fresh heartbreak. It’s proof that sometimes, the internet can feel like a global support group—strangers linked by shared loss and hope.
For those searching for more support today, organizations like The Dougy Center, GriefShare, and local bereavement groups offer compassionate resources. If you or someone you know is struggling with intense grief, please reach out to mental health professionals who can help navigate these deep waters.
When grief comes crashing like the ocean, remember these words—and hang on. There is life between the waves.
