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.
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.
