Curb Your Enthusiasm - Kamikaze Pilot

[mahlstadt]

Poor Yoshi. He should have said his Dad's plane was attacked and he had to eject or something.

Save face.

[disengagejam]

"Maybe i'll go back to base !!!" LOL

[Sully0020]

larry was asking great questions, he may be totally oblivious but they were interesting questions.

[KiDxKraZiie]

Just doing some math...Kamikaze's were most prevalent in 1945. This video came out in 2008. So, that was 63 years ago. If the father just celebrated his 80th birthday party, he was forced to be a kamikaze at age 17, or younger? fuckin japs.

[NorthWestHero1]

@KiDxKraZiie lol yeah exactly

[canon21100]

"he grazzzzed the ship" lol

[buckyboy28]

Is it bad that I searched for this on Pearl Harbor day?

[Eidelmania]

he's such a dick

[username0865]

OMFG Larry I love you.

[Darco1234]

He gave him a shit bow

[Juggernaut76]

@Darco1234

HAHA yeah he did, but during this time Larry had no idea what a 'shit bow' was.

If he did I bet this conversation would have gone a lot different.

[kegsofbeer]

this is an all improv show. HOW THE HELL does larry david come up with such golden comedy on the spot. He's a freakin genius

[logant44]

@kegsofbeer it's not strictly improv. They goof around a little and see what works best then stick with it. But there is a script and a general thrust to each episode which serves as a guide.

[dander337]

Cheryl has a skeleton face. Seriously, put a blonde wig on a skeleton. It's Cheryl!

[canon21100]

Chicken Teriyake Boyeeee!!

[isradelacon]

0:19 that was a shitbow!



[mabilokuda]

@isradelacon no this was a hello bow, shit bow is when they make such a little bow for an apology.

[Reach1335]

"How about you Yosh, lil chicken?"

[FamilyGuy1FTW]

One thing I like about this show is that it really isn't politically correct.

[NuJoiseyMAN]

The look at 1:44 is always a precursor..

[LocketRaunchers]

Chicken!

[Colddeed]

I love how Larry just doesn't know when to quit.

[cfgolfcf]

no filter

[proni1]

he grazed the ship XD curb is full of one lined gems

[miiiikku]

This is only episode of the show that I dont like. Its just too crazy.

[jice12]

"Jesus, this kamikaze business isn't for me. Maayyybbe I'll go back to base!"

[kamikrazi123]

@USMK911 wasn't Larry doing it on purpose? (he says they wanted a giant cock which was an obvious dick reference without even trying to disguise it?)

[SuperMario16bit]

Best episode anyone?

[DirtyFrigginHarry]

Leave it to Larry to stir up japanese american tensions from WWII.

[Katjing]

I would have asked too. Could have been a good story.

Though Larry should realize that most kamikaze pilots missed their targets because people were fucking shooting them down.

[hamanokaito6272]

He's totally rude.

[fromis111]

3:10 most wonderfully obnoxious face EVER

[Aphasia17]

suicide blackberry?

[BoSox12047]

3:12

[VicSicily]

LOL. Larry is the motherfucking man.

[yellowman88]

was larry trying to mock Yosh's father at the end? or was it just involuntary lol? cause if it was involuntary which i think it is its hilarious. and genious

[Paralyt1c]

I love how sheryl is trying to be all high society and polite and Larry is totally fucking it up. :D

[flavordave73]

"Hmmmmm.... wouldnt he be dead?" Leave it to Larry to point out the obvious that we all wouldnt!

[NY1love]

"He... grazed the ship..." LOL

[nomania]

I LAUGHED SO HARD IT HURTS IN THE STOMACH AHAHA LD IS A LEGEND

[SandrineSoprano]

Top show

[staffannygren]

So Hillarious!!!

how do they come up with all this?

[asuch874]

His Dad saw other "Kamikaze chickens" when he went back 2 Jap???

[brianCIM]

I hadn't watched this episode for quite some time. I was watching it with my father and had to rewind certain lines 3 or 4 times because we were both in tears laughing. I think people use the moniker "genius" way to often but this is a time when i can say Larry David is a DEFINITIVE genius. The whole episode is hysterical(the legendary Shelley Berman who plays Larry David's father watching porn in the nursing home). GENIUS. AMAZING GENIUS amply backed up here.

[maxfreeeeeeedman]

this is my favorite curb scene.

[munkdo3]

looks so sad at the end :(

[munkdo3]

"he was a pilot...

really what kind of pilot?

a...kamikaze pilot" nods head

hahahaha

[asuch874]

Maybe the Dad ran out of fuel b4 he reached target spot and had 2 hit the water.

[asuch874]

A big what???????

[asuch874]

3 kamikaze chickens hate this vid.

[sehnsucht333]

i like how you can tell that cheryl, while trying to polite, is wondering right along with larry how a kamikaze pilot could still be alive lol

[Celly222]

"I think maaaaaaaaybe ill go back to base!"

[djkobafemi]

hahaha Kofi was here!

[Aphasia17]

you know its all about to go horribly wrong when you hear Larry go "Hm."

[ggguzman]

"jesus this kamikaze business might not be for me" haha this is so wrong

[tripper85]

@ggguzman ..whats wrong about it .any sane person sitting in that plane would say the same thing

[jedisparkle]

brilliant...

[longfootbuddy]

chicken with kamikaze sauce

[oldagetraveler]

sometimes you love him sometimes you want him to die of bone cancer.

[atlasshrugged2u]

I felt so sorry for Yoshi, Larry can really be a prick, LOL!! I love him though, but he has no idea what an asshole he can be. Cheryl is so sweet trying to rectify the situation...

Poor Yoshi

[rayking05]

lol larrys face at 1:44

[21DieselBoy21]

@rayking05 Haha I know, I love that look.

[ih8mcfly]

most thing larry david says, are the things that we are too scared to say, but we really do actually wanna say

[brianCIM]

@ih8mcfly so damn right. George Carlin was the same way. Damn i miss that guy. I guess it is all on Larry David's shoulders now.

[championofcathay]

*clears throat* He...grazed the ship

[wintershadows]

Larry is so insensitive, its great!

[PassionateGoth]

That dude's my favorite. he's such a douche, but it's funny!

[jatroup12]

"He grazed the ship."

[cupomash]

Classical Larry he is a fucking genius.

[crompton33001]

Ha ha ha

[BcL07]

"So what happened at the last second there?" -- lmfao

[emo182kidd]

gotta love larry he just doesnt ever realise hes doing something wrong

[olivemike81]

@emo182kidd He's a smart man. He just lacks that part of the brain that says "I'm going to not say or ask what I really want to right now."

[kedharf1]

hahahahahha

[UsherMoore]

cofey was here.... lol!!!

[Sabertron1337]

Haha so amazing

[sovietsentinel]

"He grazed the ship" is probably as Seinfeldian/Davidian it gets.

[Chrisaaad]

Classic episode.

[Thuglife1000]

Larry is such a little bastard!

[Darkgrammer]

Sometimes I want to tell larry to shut up lol.

[kondichael]

"He grazed the ship." That sounds to me like, "I think I might head home, this is fucking insane!"

[EgypT3r]

Who ever wrote this scene is racist as hell but also a fucking genius writer

[ImahGoer]

@EgypT3r How the fuck is this racist cunt ? You're an arsewipe. Go back to masturbating over toy cars !

[franzferninlanddd]

Lol @ the Sushi chefs.

[faghore56]

Lol japenese dude morefunnier than the Korean bookie

[rosstala]

CHICKEN, lol!

[MrTheChompiras]

cofey was here.

[Gwegory22]

I THIINK I MAY HEAD BACK TO BASE!

[nspetrillo]

Best part of the episode was 10 minutes after this scene where Larry tries to defend himself and he goes

I was curious about it, so I asked. Excuse me for having a curious mind that asks questions of people!

"He grazed the ship." That sounds to me like, "I think I might head home, this is fucking insane!"

[rlkavan]

You are right. That is a great scene with Kevin Neland. Great episode, escpecially the ending.

[SchizoCalamity]

This show is fucking clever

[lowmini]

this is funny stuff*

[bigkahunaburger55555]

Ahhh, Chicken Teriyaki boy!! Chicken Teriyaki boy!!

[mike777ac]

lmao im supprised he doesnt get in trouble for making so many religious and racial jokes .... but im glad that hes still doing it :) lol

[8Eriquo8]

are you implying that this clip is racist? cause its not

[supermax54]

Yoshi: You can't eat and aplogize.

Larry: Is that a Japanese thing?

[SuperTony909]

@supermax54 its a human thing

[WalkenTheWalk]

hey man look at shows like All In The Family and The Jeffersons and that was in the 70's lol

[johnnymonroe7373]

Those two guys at the beginning have me losing it every time.

[TriFF51]

This one of the best episodes

[BcL07]

LOL

[Cenotaff]

You know where Larry is going to pick an issue before it even happens but it's always more hilarious than you think.

This is one of my favourite episodes, some amazing scenes (DIE! DIE!) Kamakaze wheel-chair etc hahaha

[NOfatCHIX87]

I cant believe i just started watching this show. Damn ive been missing out.

[Eisenmond]

"How 'bout you Yosh - a little chicken?" Priceless...

[torax819]

@Eisenmond haha

[LightxEdge]

Rofl I love this show.

[ckjc]

rofl this is so awkward

[TheWise100082]

He grazed the ship LMAO. Larry is spot on if you`re gonna call yourself a Kamikazie at least have had earned it the hard way. Talk about black and white

[greg5566]

Did you miss the shame Yoshi feels about it?

[cepacol06]

did they rape your mom?

[championofcathay]

That must be the reason.

[LightxEdge]

Go die.

[Bluehawk2008]

@turdbug

I like how you specify two different terms and neither properly apply to the Japanese.

[aurrorra]

"He grazed the ship"

[hung139]

man i feel bad for the japanese dude lol....he's like...shit...why did you survive dad

[zfatalismz]

i love how he calls him 'yosh' as he implies his father was a chicken in wwII. hilarious

[ReallyPsilly]

CHICKEN TERIYAKI BOY!

[dodgedart74]

failed komekazi!

[TheProphiting1]

Why did kamikaze pilots where helmets?..........

[Mr360Games]

lol i saw that comedy act to lol

[TheProphiting1]

funny

[championofcathay]

thats a very legitimate larry david question

[championofcathay]

@TheProphiting1 The same reason the needles for lethal injections are sterilized before the execution.

[nachoking54]

Dude attempted suicide later in the episode after this.

[dazza5266]

anyone else wonder why the hell kamikaze piolits wore helmets

[ess60620]

omg Larry is great

[STLredbirds1]

lol larry just cant let things go.....he epicly discraced that asian guy lol

[polymorphic123]

@STLredbirds1

The nationality is clearly what's important here, not his race. He's Japanese. I know it's unintentional, but the tone in which you said "asian guy" feels xenophobic.

[jewfishie2]

sumtimes this show is painfully akward...

[KnotFrost25debbie]

chicken ....CHICKEN

[burbonboy]

BONZAiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiii

[HailCostanza]

He's such a prick-fuck asshole.

I love it

[Chrisaaad]

Funniest person in the history of tv imfo.

I'm sure you know this judging by your name, but for the rest that don't know George Costanza's character was based on Larry David.

[gabrielk310]

is like that old joke abut the kamikaze that comes back to his house after a day of work and his wife asked how did it go on work and the guy says "HOW DO YOU THINk I'M ALIVE DAMMIT"

[dangleberry07]

the chefs at the start crack me up

[jampt1989]

I'm up to 2:25 and i don't know if i can keep watching. Why doesn't he ever through away the shovel?

[awesome220]

wtf are you talin about?

[moviemaniac14]

Dude, what the hell are you even saying?

[jampt1989]

He just keeps digging a hole for himself is what i'm saying.

[SuperVincent85]

this was awkward?

i've seen much awkwarder situations on this show than that...........this is nothing

the time when he got caught on jeff's bed by his parents while he was watching porn i was literally covering my face

[xaysana1963]

very funny.

[agentgooner007]

i agree tosspiece69 that was very funny it's defo my fav US show

[nexivdr]

"its big in japan" talking about the bow

[juliuszzz]

LMAOOOO thats awesome i love how they leave the funniet bits at the end

[rayking05]

its scenes like this that also shed some light on cheryls character... you can see she kinda agrees with larry about the absurdity of the situation, but she stays reserved and politically correct- all apart of what cheryl does, which is put on a facade

[rayking05]

one of my all time fave curb scenes

[tosspiece69]

The funniest part of this episode is where he speaks to the friend about how he thinks he wasn't a kamakazi pilot

'He grazed the ship, that sounds to me like, I think I'll head home this is fucking insane"

Possibly the funniest scene on TV in the last 10 years!!

[mikey34323]

Agreed tosspiece69. The scene with Larry and Kevin Nealon talking about Kamikaze pilots is one of the greatest scenes of all time.

[mkbrynmawr]

LMAO!

[shak99]

CHICKEN

[darkjeshush]

That guy should have showed his guts right then and there... literally.

[KleWdSide]

The chefs were hilarious

[londonspud08]

lol cofey turns out to be larrys pharmacist

[hoyhoy136]

LD always takes it too far lol

[footyspoak]

CHICKEN! lol

[Gumbo550]

Larry was an asshole here.

[skevo9]

"Maybe this Kamikaze business isn't for me" hahahaha

[hcig]

fucking hilarious.

yoshi looked like he was having a panic attack, haha.

[rdsox2004]

I just watched this episode last night.This episode is pretty,pretty,preety,good. When Larry walks into the nursing home{to visit his dad} and hears someone blasting porn {which turned to be coming from his fathers room} was just too much.

[krunkisdead]

BINGO!!! BIN-GOOO!!! BINGO!!!

[pearse76]

One of my all time favorite episodes.

[iggypop1818]

hahahaha

"chicken"

[MakoSucks]

BANZAIIIIII!!!

[tadakatsu14]

y would a japanese man be pronouncing kamikaze wrong? O.O

[hcig]

1.He said his grandfather had not been back to japan since the war, which would probably mean Yoshi himself was not japanese born or a japanese citizen, so he probably doesnt even know the language.

2.Kamikazi is just how everyone associates the word in english, if you talk to somebody mispronouncing as a result of culture, you'll only confuse them if you try to adjust pronunciation ie when mentioning the name "akatsuki" at a comic shop, the narutards attempted to correct my "mispronunciation"
