Karl Pilkington on This Morning 22/09/10 AN IDIOT ABROAD

[ashi4782]

To the two idiots who say you can see the Great Wall from space, it is proven to not be seen from outer space. It is very long but not wide at all. It's only 30-50 feet wide. I've been on it before. That would mean we could see every parking lot from outerspace. Any picture you see that proves it is visible, is a zoom in. From the point of view from a space station, there is no way a human could see it. It's not visible from outerspace.

[BarnzyAndBen]

I think Karl's got a massive penis or something like that, why else would Suzanne stay with him?

[Holliluvzyew]

Karl goes off to egypt. Of all the things to say about the pyramids.. - "It looks like a game of jenga gone wrong.." UTTER GENIUS.

[moviebuddy14]

he has wayy to much make up on

[samuelsixvids]

He is insane LOL

[Weeble68]

You cannot see the great wall of china from fucking space!!! grrr

[DMTwannaB]

@Weeble68 depends on how far out in space ;>

[Mohrkai]

His character on the ricky gervais and stephen merchant shows is fucking hilarious.

[ThesisAED]

@Mohrkai He doesn't have a fucking character.

[ThesisAED]

@ThesisAED So, he's kept up a character on several different shows and live apperances for over a decade?

[Mohrkai]

@ThesisAED

he's a tv personality - all you see is 30 second clips joined together, do you think between recording he is sitting there asking how many bricks it takes to build a out-house. There is Real Life and there is Studio-Life. If you are going to sit there and think anyone on the TV is real then Psychosis, you need to get out more

[DMTwannaB]

@Mohrkai u idiot its not a character

[Mohrkai]

@DMTwannaB

that's right because everything you see on tv is real huh?

idiot

[DMTwannaB]

@Mohrkai Thats Karl-logic. Well done mate.

[Mohrkai]

@DMTwannaB

That's* you gormless twat.

[ashi4782]

You can't see the Great Wall from outer space 4:40

[Mohrkai]

@ashi4782

Google isn't outer space

[TheConspiredONE]

@ashi4782 Yeah you can.

[MrsMars12345]

its amazing, he can talk without being interrupted every 2 seconds by ricky and steve's comedic comments.. its a totally different karl pilkington!

[Mohrkai]

@MrsMars12345

different show also

[KraftTV]

haha i love the little plug "that's what they've gotta understand when they're watching it tomorrow night on Sky 1 HD at 9 o clock"

[mafls001]

Just pure humour:

"its like a game of jenga that's got out of hand"

"...whats happening now?"

"where do you get toad from in London?" haha

"theres a book there if you can just give it a wave"

[MsMasalachai]

seems like a really good guy at heart

[MysticReecey]

I love it when Phil Schofield says, "But first Karl Pilkington is here" and Karl goes "alright" to himself, gets me every time

[DANNYM35]

Look at that fucking head. 

[johnkrois]

@DANNYM35 it's like a fucking orange!

[88gazzman]

Phillip Schofield has got such a camp voice. I can't stand it. He must be a closet gayboy surely?

[babidaboopy]

1.18 is so weird, what the fuck? did she sit on something or what

[funkhauser81]

completely off subject really, but union jack pillows? imagine an american talk show with stars and stripes furniture

[6NoHope9]

@funkhauser81

Ye but doesn't that tell us how sad it is now days, we can't even be proud of our own country and wave the flag without being criticised for it.

[OneWayRoad]

what he said about getting a taste for toad reminded me of what louis ck said about duck vaginas

[bluelava12]

4:34 Does He realize he's picking his ear?...

[JHOOM5447]

@bluelava12 he's scratching it not picking shite out of it

[88FingersEddward]

WHY DON'T I OWN THAT BOOK ಠ_ಠ

[arcollier]

Karl's funny. But he's funnier when he's got Gervais busting a gut laughing at him.

[crashnburn753]

"if you could show the book..." "showing the book after the break!" "alright..."

[ElectricSexPants]

Where was Karl when the Egyptian revolution happened? I can imagine him setting that off by accident.

[neonatalpenguin]

'Get a taste for toad' = 'death for two terms'

[MrGreyDreams]

@danutcase66 I love the way "Ibiza" is translated into "missile defence" :L

[HellsHighwayTrooper]

lol theres a book aswell if you can just give that away.

[THthefirst]

@danutcase66 it's a code for the takeover of the world by Google

[radlergirl]

@danutcase66 THIS IS AMAZING!!!!

[IHasseLLI]

An Idiot Abroad 2 starts on 23rd September on a Friday at 9pm

[HMFC2397]

@IHasseLLI It starts tomorrow because it's his birthday (it's also mine!).

[JasmineXeniaa]

@HMFC2397 mine too :}

[dazzlabrfc]

dennis generals donaldson on communism

[whitepanther84]

3:31 I knew nothing, that's what you've gotta remember ...... What's happening now?!

[CountessKitty18]

@danutcase66 missile defense

[midnightbluenoz]

@danutcase66 haha thts shocking

[max12y]

anyone know what the new series is about, cause i only caught a glimpse of it being advertised

[jackscarly]

@max12y the series is the funniest thing ever, just go on google and type in 'watch an idiot abroad online episode 1' and click on the first link!

[max12y]

@jackscarly oh i know, i mean an idiot abroad 2, what that series is gunna be about, do u know?

[solidvidic]

@max12y new series is about things to do before you die, like swimming with dolphins, bungee jumping etc

[Gdyear1916]

@solidvidic When does the new series start or has it already started ?



[solidvidic]

@Gdyear1916 sometime this month i think mate

[Smith89123]

Could listen to karl talk all day.

[Rubberbandballer]

I don't think YouTube's CC translation works with English accents...

[ASH18YEARS]

2:22 "Now honey you know when someone else was a caveat accountable"

2:31 "Missile defense"

2:46 "Out all right some of the war tuna i mean when we first go on holiday"

The translator speaks more sense than him.

[ASH18YEARS]

@danutcase66 Nice find haha!

[jcpadmore]

0:59 "Florist more modest maxine!!!!!" LMFAO

1:05 "dennis generals donaldson on communism!!!!!!!!" Hahahahahaaaaa!

[jcpadmore]

0:59 "Florist more modest maxine!!!!!" LMFAO

[metalheadjay666]

it needed like a mac unit

[ThePsycoDolphin]

@danutcase66 Holy crap it's bad. I think my favourite line is when Steve calls him a real life Homer Simpson and it says "destruction was being like some kind of relief of the Simpson."

[KochoC]

How appropriate that his favourite bit of idiot abroad was staying in a cave for a night "like a caveman".

[Canters247]

Excellent!



[livvyxo]

"Me girlfriend said 'it's a once in a lifetime trip' Which is true, I'm not doing it again."

[JHOOM5447]

@livvyxo what a genius

[johnkrois]

@JHOOM5447 true dat!

[NeuroHead]

"they eat anything , there is no reason for anyone to go hungry in china"

The things he say are incredibly stupid and yet incredibly clever at the same time. Thats a rare talent haha!

[Butteryjam]

@NeuroHead It's almost painful when you know what he's said is stupid but you can't help but kinda agree with him :p

[jimbobsailor]

whats happening now?

[LecceDiPane]

The guy with the silver hair is a cunt!

[Cross23bcfc]

Holly's having an orgasm at 1:18

[BVBitous]

@Cross23bcfc

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­L!

[worldsfastestslug]

@Cross23bcfc gotta love it

[KraftTV]

@Cross23bcfc thank you so much for that

[RsnBhs]

@Cross23bcfc Thanks.

[shelbeable]

@danutcase66 mute it as well. :D

[MrJayCudmore]

I cant help but laugh at his round manky head... just look at it.

[HamHatter]

@danutcase66 Lmao. He says Ibiza and he trascribes to "Missle Defence" XD

[lastlaugh98]

@danutcase66 HOLY SHIT, SO FUNNY IM CRYING XD

[lukethegreat101]

[Riveripple]

@danutcase66 how about some competition from wikispecies alexis and in a moment help bill clinton. LMAO.

[SovereignFOTL]

so guileless, that's the humour lol

[Gigimolly11]

I love this so much! Idiot Abroad is amazing. He looks and acts like my uncle :') It's hilarious. I was ill last week and decided to buy the DVD. I watched 27 hours of it in total and there's only 7 - 8 hours of the DVD's. That's how funny it was :')

[metalWIENERsolid]

@danutcase66 47 people did it right, i still hear the same people

[AA0K]

Join "God < Karl" on Facebook!

[lizardkingsajrs]

[freestylepigeon]

you cant see the great wall of china from space, if you could you'd be able to see the M1 or any football pitch in the world

[Darrion35]

@danutcase66 Hahahaha at @5:53 it says "you never know china so you should go go about porn"

[bigblackmanswilly]

LOL "What's happnin now??"

[kamyou70]

[SharksKid]

If a chimp could talk . . .

[DeadPaul91]

Head like a Fucking Orange

[TheJesserz]

Actual conversation

'But I was like seventeen at the time as well'

[CookiesOrGetOut]

[Morphindel]

[Kinematographer]

Wow, just to the director of This Morning, WTF are you doing with the camera you tired hack?

[leymj]

[makins54321]

[cuntylishus]

Schofield should have stuck to presenting 'The Movie Game'....

[EinarSunde]

Karl is great!



[harper16]

@danutcase66 LMFAO its like google just said " ok just a RANDOM bunch of words, we have more chance of translating correctly"

[shakerpop123ybh]

press 0 (keep it under the table phil)

[ben9DB]

Holly's well fit

[LolaofAr]

billion percent comic genius, he is taking the piss with this, it is hard to see when not live but he knows EXACTLY what he is up to

[DctrNugget]

ergghh head like a fucking orange

[xNas92]

@DctrNugget hahahahahhahahahaha :')

[qwepoiqpalzm]

press 1. MANK MORON!

[oOoIIoOo]

the beta audio transcriptions make this HILLARIOUS 1:05 "dennis generals donaldson on communism" 1:17 "KILL" 2:59 "the great wall of china cracks in the morning for sale"

[Wrathmont313]

I love the way Karl pops his 'P's when he's frustrated. "Get that down. It's a death tra*P*."

[FckdUpRobot]

CC audio transcription 0:52 'destruction was being like some kind of relief of the simpsons'...

[ojeere07]

love the way everytime Karl is introduced he simply says 'alryt'

[counternub40]

@danutcase66 You never know china so you should go go about porn.

[MrDizzie123]

Karl pilkinton: the king of slap heads

[ForkCheck]

man, they just don't know how to talk to the guy--like they just don't know what to expect from Karl--trying to get a rise out of him or whatever.

[jungsbodyguard]

@danutcase66 That's amazing. Cheers, mate.

[dan11009]

Karl basically built itunes podcasts..

[MrChampsey]

Haahaaa ...."troll"

[benry007]

i hate that presenter he just doesn't get the humor

[Galacticavatar]

I can't remember Phillip Scofield's voice being so camp before.

[fuckthemusics]

I think this dude is the biggest troll of all time. 

[harrisontan]

Lol just came from the absolute radio video

[saturn118]

Is he portraying a character or is he actually like this?

[wowzadj]

@saturn118 He's actualy like this, he is his own character. Head like a fucking orange.

[DeadEyeJack]

Holly is very attractive but the other presenter shows he is more ignorant than the so-called idiot by trotting out the the old "you can see the Great Wall from outer-space" nonsense which was disproved years ago.

[ireaallylikethisname]

Ricky Gervais is on idiot abroad just to remind the audience how funny his "practical joke" is with his grating laugh

[boabp84]

the guys a legend 

[uglylittlerichkids]

Karl wants to get paid

[XxEmilexX]

"it's like a game of jenga that's got out of hand" hhaaahaaa! THAT right there is why I love Karl Pilkington :)

[bassliveevil]

Holly makes me want to move to England

[DuzAndyKnow]

Let me suggest that anyone who enjoys watching videos of a grown man proving how ignorant he is please thoroughly examine my channel to meet Andy, a 30 year old who is somehow more stupid than Karl Pilkington even is. Hard to believe, but once you see it, you'll believe it. Andy doesn't even have any imagination or original thoughts of his own. He instead has developed a jumbled idea of information we all know instead.

[ashdelete]

@DuzAndyKnow Except Karl is a person and Andy is a character

[DuzAndyKnow]

@ashdelete Actually Andy is not a character, he is being completely himself. I don't know what I'm going to capture on tape when I hit record. I know it might be hard to believe that someone could be that dumb in real life, but why do you think I made a series about it? To show something that is unbelievable and hence documentary worthy.

[ashdelete]

@DuzAndyKnow To be fair I made that assumption because the way you described it sounded like it should be on the back of a DVD lol. I checked a few of them out though and I like it. I reckon you can still improve it though mate. I would personally like to see more involved questions that show who he is as a person more as opposed to mostly just what he knows. Keep it up

[DuzAndyKnow]

@ashdelete I've touched upon a few things that go deep, but the problem is basically, he has a very limited development of personality and character, due to the life of ignorance he has led. it's hard to show what isn't there :P

I'll see what I can do though, heh heh - glad you enjoyed what you saw. if any of you ever have any advice or questions you would like to submit to help the show, send those questions my way - because that is indeed half of the show's point, to make the viewers involved

[CMalone94]

it makes me giggle when he says 'alright'

hehe!

[MrsGreenDay123]

hahha 3:35 "What's happenin now?"

Aww I loveeeee Karl!!! <3

[anon1088]

nice g-star jacket there

[jensbolle]

he is such an idoit xD

[philpay95]

@jensbolle idiot*

[FULLMETALSPUDDY]

@juffan not according to NASA

[stickbarhollis]

I have the same t shirt as Karl, I don't know what this means

[1NiK1]

 alright

[PrimalStones]

This was the best programme i have ever seen. I will remember this in 50 years. Karl = LEGEND.

[thatkindofguy234]

I wanna be payed for being an idiot too!

[64Fathoms]

he is so out of place in this interview

[10kzebra]

Lortdy... he really didn't know about did he?

[spanners42]

According to Ted Crilley, the Great Wall of China is so big, you can see it from anywhere in the world.

[joeypesci]

@juffan No, you can see the Alright Wall of China instead.

[etocadet]

here's a wonder of the world which i spotted in hong kong while working.

if you go to the river in the city\town (im not sure which) of kowloon at night time the skyscrapers opposite light up beautifully. two of the skyscrapers were in the Dark knight.

[Term1874]

he's a character, a cleverly developed and performed one, but a character all the same.

[seangibbs6]

@juffan QI fact.. nice



[spoonballs]

@juffan Yes you can. You certainly can't see it from the moon but you can from space. However, it is not the only man-made object visible from space.

[ediblehatred]

'it's like a game of jenga that got out of hand.' The mans a fucking genius.

[atemlos2585]

This guy must feel terrible inside, dying every day for being famous for being called idiot, moron, empty headed guy, live Homer Simpson. C'mon guys, even human with low intelligence must suffer greatly.

[Butteryjam]

@atemlos2585 he's much smarter than he lets on. He wouldn't of agreed to do it otherwise.
