TMNT - It's just a mask COMPILATION

ABOUT:
"It's Just a Mask" is a quote said by the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles character Michelangelo as he removes his mask to reveal his face in a rooftop scene from the 2014 live-action adaptation of the comic book and animation series. Following the release of the first official trailer, the scene inspired numerous parody animations in which Michelangelo reveals himself as another fictional character.
ORIGIN:
On March 27th, 2014, the official trailer for Michael Bay's upcoming film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was released via TH-cam. In the last scene of the trailer, Michelangelo makes a dramatic appearance before his future human ally April O'Neil and tries to reassure the frightened reporter that his bandana is "just a mask" before scaring her even more by revealing his anthropomorphized turtle face (shown below, left). Within two weeks, the trailer received more than 30 million views and 29,000 comments. On the following day, TH-camr AJ Jefferies posted an edited version of the scene in which Michelangelo removes the mask to reveal the head of a ninja turtle from the 1990 live-action film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (shown below, right).

[@BJRoes]

Have I ever told you the definition of insanity?

[@ThedudenamedK]

"Insanity, craziness or madness is a spectrum of behaviors characterized by certain abnormal mental or behavioral patterns. Insanity may manifest as violations of societal norms, including a person becoming a danger to themselves or others, though not all such acts are considered insanity. In modern usage, insanity is most commonly encountered as an informal unscientific term denoting mental instability, or in the narrow legal context of the insanity defense. In the medical profession the term is now avoided in favor of diagnoses of specific mental disorders; the presence of delusions or hallucinations is broadly referred to as psychosis.[1] When discussing mental illness in general terms, "psychopathology" is considered a preferred descriptor."
-Wikipedia
(By the way I get the joke)

[@GrandHighGamer]

Really repeating an action expecting a different result is an example of insanity, not the definition of it. Unless going outside and stabbing people while dressed as a bird doesn't count as insane. In which case my plea bargin just went out of the window.

[@bentonic4998]

Gradius Well, if he expects it to stay interesting after the first couple of times, wouldn't he be doing the same thing and expecting it to change?
Just a thought.
