KVN is a show on Russian TV that asks comedy troupes - mainly students - to perform their sketches, skits and stand-up routines in front of a live audience and a few judges.

As you might expect from this cross between Saturday Night Live and Britain's Got Talent, the results are often... patchy, to say the least.

But every once in a while, there's an absolute gem that transcends the normally limiting effects of the Russian language - and this is one of those gems.

Discover the world's worst/best/weirdest cover of Finnish hip-hop Bomfunk MC's 1997 hit Freestyler, as performed by five female students and, eventually, a few guys riding in with cardboard Alsatians pretending to be SWAT squaddies. As you do.

And if you were wondering what the original sounded like - and you're willing to have it stuck in your head all day - here it is for you below, in stereo. Okay, the stereo thing depends on your speakers/headphones, but there you go.

KVN (Russian: КВН, an abbreviation of Клуб Весёлых и Находчивых, Klub Vesyólykh i Nakhódchivykh or Ka-Ve-En, "Club of the Funny and Inventive") is a Russian humour TV show and competition where teams (usually college students) compete by giving funny answers to questions and showing prepared sketches. The programme was first aired by the First Soviet Channel on November 8, 1961.
