About Break.com

Break.com (formerly Big-boys.com) is a humor website founded in 1998 that features comedy videos, flash games, and pictures among other material. The chief executive officer of Break is Keith Richman. The web site's target audience is men 18-35.

The main focus of the site is videos, with an emphasis on humorous videos and other material targeted towards their male demographic. Break also has several video categories including animation, military, sports, humor, movies and entertainment. Break posts roughly 8 new videos on the homepage per day, mostly consisting of user generated home movies of people performing stunts and pranks. Some of the videos feature people getting injured, usually as a result of their own recklessness or foolishness, on purpose or by accident, but Break does not post videos where it is certain someone has died (with the exception of the Saddam Hussein execution video). The site also includes television clips and other viral videos.

Visitors were once able to rank site material on a scale of 1 to 5, but Break has since replaced this feature with a thumbs up/thumbs down system. Negative scores are not allowed on videos - a "thumb down" simply counteracts the vote of a "thumb up." Users can also comment on most of the individual entries.
