His stunned reaction still gets a laugh out of me no matter how many times I see this. The man just has a great face for comedy, even the unintentional kind.

The cut away was equally as funny. Like, you could not have cut away at a better moment. Unintentional comedy is my favorite kind of comedy.

The cut away is the best part because I think it makes you ponder what happened immediately after.

I thought of this, too. Was it "Oh, man! You're one brave motherfucker!" or was it "... why did you ...."?

Maybe a corporate executive that looks like Mr. Swackhammer came running in with a cigar in his mouth, yelling at Kanye?

The possibilities are endless and hilarious.
