We sent AOL TV correspondent Brian Joyce to the Rally to Restore Sanity in Washington D.C. on a mission to make a funny web video.

His task was simple: Talk to the people attending the rally, get a feel for the spirit of the day, and return back more sane than when he departed. He failed spectacularly.

He did, however, learn many important lessons -- that reason conquers fear, that civil discourse trumps shouting, and that eating candy off a naked man does not necessarily make him gay.

Please enjoy our video account of the single greatest day in the history of mankind.
