'''[[FunkyTown]]''' is a [[shock video]] first uploaded to an unknown website (presumably Kaotic.com) sometime around 2017. The video was filmed by a Mexican drug cartel, possibly [[wikipedia:Jalisco New Generation Cartel|Jalisco New Generation Cartel]].
'''Jingle Bells Reversed''' was a [[screamer]] [[Flash]] [[animation]] created by Daniel Fowler and was originally found on [[Newgrounds]] in 2004. The original animation was deleted but added to the [[DeviantArt]] [[website]] by the original owner (under the alias: "Fhashstark") with a description claiming that he's the owner of the animation. [[Jeremy Winterrowd]] also featured this screamer on his website: "[[Winterrowd.com]]". A yellow version of this game can be found on Ebaumsworld and was later posted to Y8.com, a popular flash game website.


FunkyTown is a 2 minutes and 50 seconds long video of an unknown man being savagely tortured, while "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1w7OgIMMRc4 Sweet Child O' Mine]" by Guns n' Roses is heard playing. The man is seen lying on the ground with his arms and legs tied up with what appears to be plastic wire, while hooked up to an [https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/002383.htm IV] which is pumping his blood with drugs to keep him alive longer while the cartel members torture him. This man has his hands chopped off with a knife, his face skinned and cut off, and his eyes gouged out while he lays in a pool of blood and screams and gurgles in pain.
The animation starts with an excerpt from the famous Christmas song [[wikipedia:Jingle Bells|''Jingle Bells'']] playing forward. Following the first extract, the same song was played backward, and a color-inverted [[GIF]] of Daniel Fowler, the author, making a weird face flashes with a high-pitched, hilarious-sounding scream about three-quarters of the way through the excerpt.

The man, who barely resembles a person, manages to get his arms untied and tries to reach for his face. Keep in mind that the man has no face, no eyes, and no hands.

The cartel members slit the man's throat with a knife and box cutter, but don't fully behead him. The video does not capture the final moments when the cartel members end up completely killing the man.
