Most of the late-night shows were in reruns last night, but that didn't stop Stephen Colbert from going on a rant against the Nobel committee for awarding the peace prize to the European Union.

"Oh bravo, Europe," he said. "After all, it's been a whole 13 years since your last genocide."

For today's must-see moment, fast forward to 4:10 to see a daredevil break the record for the world's shortest free-fall.
