[TanukiCoast]

[tttwas0910]

Sam was such a fucking genius miss this dude so bad.

[lafcat]

This man is one of the greatest American comic geniuses and I foolishly passed the opportunity to study with this man when he passed through Houston Texas before he moved to Los Angeles.

RIP Sam.

[davetrek1962]

And the blonde is not bad either!

[amoskowitz0103]

A communist, a Muslim and an illegal alien walk into a bar. The bartender says "What can I get you Mr. President..."

[TheCrazyhorse36]

lmao! I miss that guy!

[highdesertutah]

I watch this everytime i need a good laugh.

[TooOld2Troll]

Sam and Rodney! This movie was just a bunch of scenes like this one holding hands! I had to see this movie several times when it first came out because I would start laughing so hard that I would miss the next gag.

[351974gordon24]

"Well, I didn't you wanted to get in on the conversation Mr. Helper." classic. I really miss one of the funniest men who has ever lived in the past 25 yrs. RIP Sam "The Man" Kinison.

[351974gordon24]

Is she right?

[Masterpsflood]

Screw the keener i like this teacher

[themysteriouscrumpet]

AAAAWK!!! AAAAAWK!!!!! AAAAAAAAWK!!!!!!!

[LambdaKore]

[richland22]

[The4thGuy]

[tigahwood]

12 people are pussy wimps.

[jenetik0]

mr helper

[nissansentraglx]

hahaha! just the way he said, " is she right?" you knew he was going to go off! hilarious

[j19527]

Its common snese. A common sense teacher. Non-existent today. : (

[1985Farkas]

Those 12 dislikes have to be either those head band wearing pussies or rice eaters.

[MaidenUtah1]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[ojmccaf63]

rip both Sam and Rodney!! lol

[Blues101100]

"is she right?..."

[WilliamDRowlett]

I love the Sam Kinison lisp. "Is she right?" & "Mr. Helper".

[vols9599]

Sam should've been  Bush and Cheyney's advisor! CLASSIC!!

[BackdoorPlumber]

Fucking amazing movie with fucking amazing comedians.

[Harlowe79]

"I didn't know you wanted to get involved in the conversation, Mr. Helper." Ha!

[Puzzsta]

"good teacher...he really seems to care..." priceless!

[fievel12b]

I want to be a history professor now

[Lansdenc]

Your missed.

[tmmy773]

awesome movie :) they don't make em like they used to.

[1BEAVIS13]

Mr. Helper.....

[ejr23]

I would've LOVED this guy as my history professor! People would've looked us like were Hitler and Stalin.

[pattyfromtoledo]

Good answer . . . I'm gonna be watching you . . .

[sarageorge1971]

This is one of the funniest scenes ever...Sam is a genius....RIP

[mvonwahlde]

@sarageorge1971 I totally agree. I hope this scene survives as long as people watch the movies.

[e3754]

@sarageorge1971 rodney was also guy,  two lost but always in the clasics,

[izraqthedark2]

One of the greatest movies ever.

[daytraderfbf]

That professor was several bricks short of a load.

[PeteTheSnowDog1]

I would just look at Rodney's eyeballs and couldn't stop laughing !!!! God Rest His Soul...........

[billabam]

It looks like at 2:00 Rodney is laughing his ass off when Sam rips off the top of the desk

[Peoria3165]

Sammy needs to go visit Obama and school him on American History!

[lothow]

@PissedPlayinPimp Pretty close to perfect lol.

[tmdaninla]

I know, you missed the punch line....thanks, tho'...very funny stuff....Can you believe, they're both gone? So soon...Now, I have to be twice as funny...I WISH

[duffydog12]

loooooooove this movie .

[70sPowerHour]

you know, as much as I idolize Kinison, I think the best part of this scene is seeing Rodney completely lose his cool.

[Baltimorehop]

@PissedPlayinPimp ~ Laughing my Fucking Ass Off -- Big Time!!!! One of the funniest scenes in history.

[metalstrike1]

10 people are too much of a pussywimp to click the thumbs up button

[cswow99]

You cut out one of the best parts at the end:

"He really seems to care......about what I have NO idea..."

[uzimodem]

LOL

[rivherdog]

JAJAJJAJAJJAJ SAY IT SAYYYYYYY ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT JAJAJAJAJAJA

[HeyCrabman14]

SAY IT!! SAY IT!!

[joekoe97]

Press 9 over and over to see Sam Kinison masturbate followed by 5 to see him say he has a hernia.

[caseyjones67]

ahhhhhhhh!ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhh

[caviper1]

"... and pushed those rice eaters back to the great wall of China..."

[horns2112]

The only thing worse than being a pussy, or a wimp, is being a pussywimp.

[dethmetal1396]

hahaha I wish Sam was my history teacher!!!

[xIegionx]

1:20

[warloxwill]

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

[leelomoe]

mr helper lol

[alexaadap]

sam was a big loss

[RetroJenny]

I wish I had a history professor as cool as this guy.

[ejr23]

It's about time we have a professor that will tell the truth. Not like this commie crapola that's being rammed down the kid's throats today.

[drbayoms]

@ejr23

It's a comedy clip. Please, (as Sam Kinison would say ) "Shut the Fuck up"!

[ejr23]

@drbayoms and as George Carlin said "Blow it out your ass. Bullshit is bad for you"

[ufsi84]

say it!!! SAY IT!!

[TheMrShadowplay]

"Is she right'?

[Hoppy1983]

Seven people have been enrolled in this class for the fall semester.

[TheChuck624]

Classic.

[ferngullyful]

lol!!! well......Mr. Helper......lol!

[rmleider]

How could you cut off the best line of the scene? Amazing.

[linda80121]

freakin funny as hell.i love this movie

[josephmarks1]

This is the coolest professor ever!

[JazzyJonas]

"...about what, I have no idea!"

[bksingle]

She sounded like she memorized that from a book...[0:39-51]

[aitraining]

Great scene but u cut off Rodney's punch line at the end. "....about what I have no idea"

[pattypopping]

That's a class where NO students will lose inerest

[metalman2140]

i was up to my knees in rice patties. with guns and edwards we were goin against charlette, but pussies like you were back here puttin head bands on doin drugs listenin to the beatles albums!!! ahhh ahhhh!!!!!!!!!!

[Alipollie]

My history Professor said today he knew exactly what he wanted to do when he grew up after watching this film

[Khboy93]

AAAH! AAAAAAAAH!

[MagnJas]

I had a history prof in college that didn't yell, but would pound his and your desk, slap his hands together, and toss the occasional book across the floor..He was great!

[14Roxy]

i bet a lot of veterans loved this video!!!

[breanned1999]

woah i didn't see that comin

[szqsk8]

If I had a teacher like Professor Turgesson I would not have ditched class so much!

LOL! That gut behind Rodney in class wiping his face with the hankie and tugging on his collar from fear.

[MrAgh50]

Great Movie. Classic routine. RIP gentlemen, and thanks for the memories!

Higher education could use a good sprinkling of Turgessons (just to balance it out).

[easy2120]

Oh yea, I had a few Professors this nutty. Except more to the left.

[rockfever723]

I would have stayed awake in high school history if I had a teacher like Sam Kinnison!

[REDTEXGAL]

Love it!

[TacticsforHaloReach]

kinison and dangerfield were legends and good friends. they must have been crushed wen one of the other died

[speedskiff2]

any relation to Gen. Turgesson from "Dr. Strangelove"?

[goodegolf]

I personally do not care for that last part of the joke . . . there always seems to be on goofy student who tries to give the Prof accolades by saying "he really seems to care" . . . that's the end of it as far as I'm concerned. 

[WiseGuy5674]

@goodegolf ..yeah, but the fact is that he's right. Imagine how the Korean Peninsula would be today if Truman hadn't interfered. Read some history.

[Jurassic0Al]

@goodegolf- Well, the main point of the statement was lost because the video cuts off then. Moments later, Dangerfield adds, "About what I have no idea.", meaning that he believes Turgesson to be a dedicated professor but has no idea what he is dedicated to.

[drbayoms]

@Jurassic0Al

Exactly. I suspect who ever uploaded the video left it out on purpose. Oh well.

[ferngullyful]

@goodegolf  what the hell are you talking about?

[label1877]

How can you show this clip and edit the "about what... I have no idea." All it needed was 2 more seconds.

[willsjaime]

Did anyone ever have a professor as conservative as Turgesson?

[svartekaptenen]

@willsjaime Why do you think he is conservative? Perhaps he is a patriot whom felt

betrayed?

[WiseGuy5674]

@svartekaptenen ...Well said my friend, well said.

[willsjaime]

@svartekaptenen  One and the same thing.

[KellLynch]

@svartekaptenen I'm thinking conservative. A patriot would have burned his draft card and fought for his rights like the ORIGINAL patriots did! Conservatives tend to blow a lot of hot air like Rush and Glen!

[killahkam420]

say it!! say it!!!!

[RM4FS]

This is great as to the truth of Viet Nam and Korea

[ou8jaime]

i didn't know you want to get involved in the conversation, Mr. Helper. I love saying that to assholes who interupt me.

[FavreianVengeance]

I really do wonder if these two guys are hanging out on the other side. They themselves have to still be laughing at that exchange.

[NinjaGhostScorpion]

@FavreianVengeance It's no secret they were friends in real life.

[jonrleephoto]

I wish some of my professors had this much enthusiasm and energy!

"Cause Truman was too much of a pussy wimp to let MacArthur go in there and blow out those Comi Bastards!!  Brilliant!! Comedic Timing at its best!!!!

[ceylous3121]

well...... reeaaaaalllly.... LMAO

[bass109]

bible is sacred, the greatest doctrine of all mankind ever written.

[silentzorah]

@bass109 Wrong.

[lestat1591]

something tells me that the teacher used to be a drill sergeant lol

[mattinahat1059]

5 people were up to there knees in rice paddies, with guns that didn't work! Going in there, looking for Charlie, slugging it out with him.

[arouska]

Kinison, Dangerfield, Vonnegut... damn there is so much awesome in this movie

[gregger4truth]

lmao! this shit is timeless!

[TheEleventhIndian]

That Korean Conflict question needs to be on the SAT or the Citizenship Exam. Multiple Choice with Rodney's answer as a selection. LMAO!

[amartinjoe]

LOL!! "Good teacher! He really seems to care!"

[qwijjibow]

@amartinjoe they cut off the best part...

after that he says: "about what i have no clue!" lmao

[Thanksandy]

@qwijjibow exactly, brilliant, one of my favourite scenes in any film ever

[impdream70]

GREAT scene only you cut the line "he seems to care....ABOUT WHAT I DON'T KNOW" this will always be funny thanks for posting!

[JP5466]

@impdream70 It's actually.. "He really seems to care... about what I have no idea".

I've seen this movie about 100 times... still laugh at it!

[joeyjoeyjoey12345]

@JP5466 one of my fav movies

[mikemat3307]

Truman wasn't too much of a pussy to drop not one, but two nukes on Japan. Why not China? I'm afraid 500 characters isn't enough space.

[jhall701]

@mikemat3307 Cause Truman didn't want to inflame the situation more caused the Soviets had developed nukes by that time! He was considering that China had access to them- thus the conflict could of escalated beyond just Korea.

[mistacramer]

Five people flunked out of history class.

[7thJewelProductions]

Miss 'em both...this scene is one of the reasons I LOVE this movie!

[203207ab]

He is absolutely right you know.  The stupid liberal historians love truman however, unfortunately.

[Aepotheosis]

Hahaha, my old history teacher would do this kind of stuff regularly. He even made a couple of the students cry. I miss that man.

[MagnJas]

@Aepotheosis I had an American History prof in college that would yell, slam his hand to the desk (including yours), and do stuff like this..Was a great class.

[jdharris555]

Good answer....good answer....I like the way you think....I'm gonna be watching you....

[OddOneOut665]

Saw some random guy screaming during the Nostalgia Critic's "Commercials" review, and I was led to this. Funny Scene! XD

[jrmetmoi]

'...about WHAT I have no idea!' - Rodney Dangerfield.

[Tokopol]

@jeffman52001 That makes no sense, moron. Obama expanded the war.

[jeffman52001]

@Tokopol Hey asshole, read what I said again and read it better, and you will see that is what I am taking about.

[Tokopol]

@jeffman52001 It's still a bunch of twaddle full of cheap shots at Obama, no matter how many times I read it.

[ripnickus]

@jeffman52001

Rock on.

[estrander]

@jeffman52001 ummmmmmmmm not to be a dick, but you are completely folking around with comparisons between political climates and administrations ... and considering that rodney's response is to a question about the korean war, the modern day answer would be that bush and cheney were the pussies. but, its not like Wikipedia is a free online encyclopedia at your fingertips anytime you want to say stupid sheet on youtube

[Joelomite]

@jeffman52001, I appreciate you posting my original text, but you should give me credit for it!

[2AssyrianMORONS]

rice eaters lol 

[ColRangerFontana]

Priceless!

Comedy today could really use these 2 guys.

RIP you two.

[wccti]

say it say it

[babylonkid]

"goin against charlies"... fuckin awesome.

[89deason]

i wish i had a teacher like this, destroying chairs and yelling

[mustwinder]

@89deason We had a few like that in my day, they would destroy a chair but they'd use your back to break it.

[getsomelead]

@89deason My history teacher stubed his toe on a broken computer and got pissed and threw it against a wall.

[89deason]

@getsomelead Wow! I only had "nice" teachers, I wish i had Him as my teacher!

[getsomelead]

@89deason he was pretty nice just had some anger issues

[horseboyken]

@89deason I did  Mr. Taylor World History from a Vietnam Vet (Marines) he was waay too cool

[seanolly]

@89deason then maybe students will actually listen.

[89deason]

@seanolly i know!

[89deason]

Sam kinda reminds me of Bobcat if you dont know who bobcat is, he was the crazy guy who was in "One Crazy Summer", and "Police Academy 3" as Zed

[Godissogood1000]

FUNNy every single time never gets old no matter how many times I watch it, sammy kinisin is the definition of calm because you can't get any calmer than that. COuld you imagine if he was in the war, he would kill everybody in the class, but I wish the movie had 2 more classes of him because he was the funniest out of the whole movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[Foeley]

Sometimes I think I missed out not pursuing higher lernun

[MysticalWheel]

"Listening to the GODDAMN Beatles' albums!! AAAAAAAAHHHH!! AAAAAAHH!!!" LOL

[spencermeadows79]

Hilarious! 

[juniorjunkieAprilee]

God rest Rodney Dangerfield and Sam Kinnison.

[CaptSaveAHo3]

LMFAO

[btwall60]

Oh, Mr. Helper!

[xVIPERx415]

I wish I had a history teacher like this!

[AGCdrummer]

@xVIPERx415 i do, and its not all its lived up to be lol, but this is his favorite video

[amadeusyaoi]

@FenrirLupus Boy, did you ever say it! Wilson got us into 4 wars (WWI, WWII, Korea and Vietnam), FDR tried to pack the courts to push his illegal policies and imprisoned 150,000 U.S. citizens on the basis of their race and they say that Teapot Dome was the real scandal.

[DetPaul187]

Is she right...?

[metallica110292]

say it!!!!

[minterus2]

pkabel66, wasn't it "About what, I have NO idea?"

[Cox2564]

This makes me want to become a history teacher/professor.

[pkabel66]

Well, today (yesterday) it WAS "Back to School". Warning, just a little raw in the language. Can anyone give me Rodney's next line after this clip ends? It's a classic....

[dthevideofan657289]

@pkabel66

"Great teacher...he really seems to care." -wide eyed- "About what, I have no idea..."

[ds49]

mr helper

[SirJoseyWales]

I miss Sam Kinison.

[Mauser9513]

LMAO "Is she right!?"

[NinjaGhostScorpion]

@Mauser9513 "Because I know that's the popular version of what happened. I know a lot of people like to believe that. I wish I could, but I was there. I wasn't here in a classroom, hoping I was right, thinking about it. I WAS UP TO MY KNEES IN RICE PADDIES, WITH GUNS THAT DIDN'T WORK, GOIN' UP AGAINST CHARLIE, SLUGGIN' IT OUT WITH HIM, WHILE PUSSIES LIKE YOU WERE BACK HERE PARTYIN', PUTTIN' HEADBANDS ON, DOIN' DRUGS, LISTENIN' TO THE GODDAMNED BEATLE ALBUMS!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!" (Can't resist.)

[Joelomite]

I used to hate history. Thought it was boring, dull and unimportant. But in the last 10 or so years (especially after 9/11) my perspective changed. Now I see why it's important and how we are NOT learning the lessons and repeated the same damned mistakes.

When Dangerfield refers to Truman as a "pussy wimp," I think the same way of Barack Obama and his dumbass, sissy administration today when dealing with Islamic terrorists!

[RemusRomulas]

@Joelomite yhea but obama didnt kill millions of ennocent people even though it was justified it was still wrong. why don't we just nuke the middle east and all alleged areas were terrorists are located? why don't we carpet bomb towns filled with thousands of ennocent people just to kill a handful of terrorists?

sir there always has and always will be terrorists ..no matter whose president ..even in the u.s.

[Joelomite]

@RemusRomulas, I was just showing my disdain for Obama's total lack of regard for the DANGER we are in. He shows major weakness by hugging and loving those who want to kill us. Bowing down to: Venezuela, Syria, North Korea and Iran.

No president is perfect, EVER. But at least show some strength by using words of strength. Obama has the charisma, but lacks major cojones in his actions.
