Information on the cameo
Dane Jeffrey Cook was born on March 18th, 1972, in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He is a stand-up comedian, film actor, director, and writer, known for his controversial sense of humor. Cook has released several comedy albums, including Harmful If Swallowed, Retaliation, Vicious Circle, Rough Around the Edges: Live From Madison Square Garden, and ISolated INcident. After the success of his sophomore album, he continued his active career as a comedian and transitioned into film, starring in Employee of the Month, Mr. Brooks, Good Luck Chuck, My Best Friend's Girl, and many others.
Cook's appearance is based on a running gag in the Lego Brickfilming community to feature Dane Cook being killed in various ways. Originally made by James Morr, the trend lasted from 2009 - 2010, and later saw a resurgence in 2014 - 2015. These types of videos are also frequently referenced in other Brickfilms, often with Dane Cook dying in similarly absurd ways as to these videos.
Appearance in the rap battle
When Zeus said, "I'm like Medusa: I stone a mother fucker if he looks at me wrong!", Cook accidentally looked into Medusa's eyes and got turned into stone.
