The 2:26 glitch to me looks like a mpeg transmission error which caused the decoder to shift the chroma to the right.

Not to get too technical, basically video transmission does not work with RGB pixels (red/green/blue intensities) but with luminance (luma) and chrominance (chroma). Luminance being basically a black and white picture of light intensities, and chrominance being a picture just of colour information. When the glitch occurs, the entire colour information shifts to the right and you can see a blob of brown colour to the right of the cup. There is also a shadow to the right of the fold in the backdrop. The video stabilizes after having a further glitch manifesting as scattered blocks.

See here for example of what is luma/chroma: http://images.digitalmedianet.com/2007/Week_9/pu0br08v/story/photo_luma_chroma.jpg

What you saw in the video was the colour being shifted momentarily.

Give that dude a show. In fact, give him either The Office or Lost, maybe I can stand to look at those if he's in them. At the very least, remake Ironside with him in the lead.

I would definitely watch his show. This guy is genuinely hilarious and has charisma pouring out of him. One thing is certain, though; this is no pity vote. This guy deserves it disability aside.

CP is usually a birth defect/injury.

Humor aside, his show idea is new and something that ISN'T on TV yet, and could reach an untapped audience. If Zack doesn't get his show, i'm guessing we'll see a knock off in the next year or two.

It's not all jokes about his disability. Best line in the video: "No Atlantis is too underwater or fictional." Nothing to do with his CP. He's just genuinely funny.
