NSFW
I double-checked and the video appears to fall within the community guidelines.

But was NPH Spooning, was it intentional, or a Freudian slip?

Where is the rest of the song? I don't want to ruin this great joke but sounds like he said, "The right is bigger." Even though I think he was trying to say, "This night is bigger."

It's interesting that while Deon Cole makes suggestions it sounds a bit like them.

Hahah! TED TV did a thing about this phenomenon. Specifically the backward satanic lyrics claimed by some to be heard when playing "Stairway to Heaven" backward. The guy played parts of the record backwards and asked if anyone could hear anything. No one heard anything except "satan". The guy then said if you listen again you'll hear <specific satanic lyrics> and sure enough when the exact same bit was played you'd hear exactly what he said would be heard when before you'd not have heard anything but gibberish.

It's a form of suggestion. In the video he goes into all kinds of different phenomenon and explains why people believe all kinds of weird things. Like the face on Mars. Hell, if you look at other places on Mars you'll even see smiley faces and even Kermit the frog.

The Stairway to Heaven segment is at 9:35 or so. The whole video is great though and worth the watch. As he says, "You can't miss it when I tell ya what's there".

Oh, he definitely said the N word.
Mike Tyson is obviously afraid of Neil Patrick Harris.
What does he know that we don't know?

Mike Tyson's look was gold.

I think he spooned there, which is when you're trying to think ahead or multitask, and you accidentally mix up the first letters of two words. Total accident, totally awesome, and Mike Tyson was too afraid of NPH to do anything about it.

Yeah,I think it was just the way his mic was facing tbh. He was dancing around and he turned his head so his words got garbled. Boring right?

Anyways, I know all this is in a joke mode but... I think it would be totally funny if he did say it to such a big guy, and it would prove that tyson has a great sense of humour.
I don't know what's the big fuss about that word. I mean "my nigga" really sounds friendly to me. "do this, ni.." is unacceptable, I agree, but classifying "my nigga" as something totally unacceptable to say, when it's clearly friendly, it sounds like "bro" to me.
We have the same word in french and it sounds awful too, but then french black people would never call each other that way. The word is totally banned while it's used in so many ways in the american vocabulary that it kind of lost a big part of its bad meaning.
In spanish the word is the same as black. I remember a few years back the spanish head coach of the football team before a game between france and spain said something about stopping Thierry Henry to his team saying "we can stop this black guy" and it was translated in the french press by "we can stop that n...". Total scandal here, and that coach has been seen as the biggest racist ever because some journalists did a bad translation.
