If you've ever strolled down Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles, chances are you've encountered Spongebob Squarepants – not the actual cartoon character of course, but the street performer that dons his costume.
In the latest segment of "How Long?" on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the late night TV host had Spongebob fall down on the street, timing how long it would take before someone finally came to his aid.
Despite the lovable character's pleas for assistance, he goes largely unnoticed, with several passerbys walking by him. Some joggers even jump over him.
Finally, seven minutes in, a few young men come to the performer's rescue: a group of yeshiva students. Naturally, once he's on his feet, they start dancing on the sidewalk as they sing Hava Nagila, the lyrics to which Spongebob knows surprisingly well. Can it be that he's a member of the tribe?
“It turned into a bar mitzvah out there,” Kimmel jokes after airing the footage.
