Watch Carrot Top Get Crushed By A Shark In The Official Trailer For ‘Sharknado 4: The 4th Awakens’

The question that most people probably ask when it comes to SyFy’s Sharknado franchise is: Why? “Why the hell do they keep making these things,” you probably wonder every time there’s a new piece of casting news, or Twitter blows up with GIFs of Ian Ziering slicing his way through the belly of a great white with a chainsaw while flying through a tornado. And the answer is pretty simple: Tara Reid needs work. Okay, that’s not the sole reason, but it’s basically true, and they also keep making these movies because people love how insanely bad they are. Sharknado is intentional campiness for fans of authentic campiness.

That is certainly on display in the official trailer for Sharknado 4: The 4th Awakens, which picks up five years after the events of Sharknado 3, because with that much time off, Mother Nature is feeling the need to let loose. “Firenado!” “Oilnado!” And Gilbert Gottfried shouting, “COWNADO!” What a time to be alive. Also of note in the Sharknado 4 trailer are:

David Hasselhoff flying in a penis-shaped plane.

Tommy Davidson very seriously asking, “Are we able to get rid of all the Sharknadoes in the U.S.?”

But nothing tops my favorite moment – Carrot Top being crushed by a shark.

Geez, save some of the fun for the airing. Sharknado 4 will have Twitter going crazy on Sunday, July 31. If you need more Sharknado in the meantime, check out these two new featurettes from SyFy.
