Look away-I'm hideous

[SuperMegaUberGenius]

imitation is the gretest form of flttery

/watch?v=wSeSR-of9Es

look away

[gbhavam]

Oh Kramer's reaction is epic! "Look away.....I'm hideous"

[jbntx]

Another video post blew up in my face when I posted a football play a few years ago, intending only to post it for my son in graduate school far from home to see it. Now, it is to this day still an OU - Texas trash talking message board. I posted it because I shot game film of the defensive end featured in the clip when he was in high school. Check it out: Texas v. OU game "late hit": Maguire defends, Flutie angered

[jbntx]

A note from the person who posted this video:

Just goes to show you how life and (people you didn't think were) idiots will blow up in your face. I posted this scene many months, maybe a year before the heckling incident and the infamous on stage comments by Richards. Then, of course, this YouTube address turned into much more than to just get a chuckle from Jerry & Kramer. I could have taken the vid down, but I suppose one more msg board to help folks work through racial issues can't hurt. jb

[mcleanse]

hahaha, i love how jerry is still trying hard not to laugh in the actual take they used

[rchalker]

How to stop racism. Don't say racist words and respect others. That's what God wants.

[TheJellymonty]

The blooper of this scene is a lot funnier than the actual scene

[bustedup]

what makes it even more fun is that Jerry's trying so hard not to laugh =)

[ThePeaceMatterz]

i thought this was the harry potter's "Bill look away i'm hideous..." Lol

[tstruss912]

One of the top 5 Seinfeld scenes of all-time.

[FutureNewsAnchor]

Can we PLEASE talk about the hilarious scene instead of how Michael Richards embarrassed himself four years ago?

[FutureNewsAnchor]

"Jerry, my face is my livelihood!" Classic!

[FutureNewsAnchor]

Look at Seinfeld towards the end of the clip. He's tryin' SO HARD not to laugh!

[AceGuitarR7]

@FutureNewsAnchor yeh, have u seen the extras for this scene? they did a couple of takes cause jerry kept crackin up. even here he barely keeps it in

[cellardoor199991]

" My face is all craggily......it's crickely(he looks up) LOL .."

[JisakuJ]

i h8 niggars

[Kan2209]

Nigger hater man.

[eruption257]

You know he just did that for shock value, right?

[Planeshocker]

I know they had to redo that scene alot people Jerry and Kramer kept laughing

[kullprit]

this is one of my fave Kramer scenes

[b0m83d]

nigger

[HellsAngels2001]

@b0m83d  watch your mouth.

[bigTrhodes]

Do we have a case Jackie?Yo face iss our case. Freekin priceless!But I cant find this scene.

[junkie4vids]

The funniest part about this scene was that it took them about 6 times to shoot this scene because they were laughing so hard while reading the lines.

[Sothe1424]

yes

[bilboen]

Don't know why I wrote this though, can't compare these two to Richards. Richards excused his behavior, and I sincerely believe that he's no racist. He lost his mind, things like that happens.

[bilboen]

Wagner was a Nazi(more specifically, an anti-Semite) - but still one of the greatest composers who have walked on this gracious planet of ours.

Same thing with the author Knut Hamsun - a Nazi, yet still a great writer. However, Hamsun was allegedly never an anti-Semite, he was just a Germanophile, who admired many aspects of the Nazi ideology, but never really embraced nor found the antisemitism relevant to the other aspects National Socialism.

[rekduke]

my twinkle hahahahahaha

[AdVikesAd]

What season is this?

[fleury29pens]

season 8

[joeygsmom]

this may be my favorite Sienfeld moment...

[teamsters703]

He's not racist, he's funny, Stop using Niggher and we will too, Monkey see Monkey do, (<<<Pun!)

[soulflyfgm]

Kramer is something...he is awesome!!! even if he is racist..he is AWESOME!!

[jackass255]

I've been a big fan of the show for over 8 years. When i first heard about Kramer saying the n word i couldnt believe it..

I wasn't mad , i was (disappointed)

But AS A BLACK MAN i still watch Seinfeld as much as i can and STILL crack up when Kramer does something stupid.

[as04qg]

yea..im not black but it saddned me..

Its tough to imagine that a guy like kramer could be like that..but may be its not kramer..its michael richards..if you know what i mean.

[jackass255]

I understand 100%..

When we see Micheal Richards we dont see Micheal Richards we see Kramer. We all know Kramer wouldn't do what Micheal Richards did

Did you watch when he was on Letterman saying he was sorry ? It was so funny because it was so weird to see Kramer being so serious.

But it was Micheal saying he's sorry not Kramer and i lot of people (for the right reasons cause he's a great actor) can't tell the difference

[sqwuade]

Gotta agree with you there. It took some out of the pzaz out of it for me too (Even though I'm white). Just seemed like a real lame thing to do. He was getting heckled by some black guys at a comedy club for being type-cast as "Kramer" and that was all he was good for. The thing is all he had to say to shut them up was something like. "Yeah, that's right I was a major character on the most popular TV show of all time, what did you guys ever do!?!?" Lol, I'll bet that would've shut them up!

[frankmat]

@jackass255 I gotta say... isn't it racist for a black person to allow other black people to say the word "nigger" yet not allow a white person to use the word? Isn't that real racism against white people.

[dautolover]

@frankmat oh poor white people suffering in their well to do neighborhoods. being put in fields to work by force. being controlled by others to do the will of others...

the use of that word differs on who says it. whereas blacks use it as a form of comradity, whites use it to denegrate and insult.

your racism is not justified simply because others do it.

[love616]

lmao. i frickin' love kramer. him and elaine are my favorite ones, on this show. ^____^

[carlitos07way]

it looks like an old catchers mit!

no.. look away, im hideous!

[saturnhexagon]

Everyone has a little Captain in them. Everyone has a little racism in them. You see it everywhere, so do not pretend it's not a problem, for everyone.

[blackblove4]

black people are the most racist, why is it ok for them 2 make racists comments?

[P0mt3]

@blackblove4 "50 years ago we'd have you upside down with a f--king fork up your ass" is more than just a 'racist comment'. It's cruel. How dare you say that black people are 'the most racist'? All people are individuals. Skin pigmentation has nothing to do with it. Some people are racist, others aren't. To paint it all in a black and white attitude is generalizing.

People see only people. Racists see skin color. Got it yet?

[2and2make5]

@P0mt3 even so, the hecklers deserved it. they were niggers, because, by definition, a nigger is someone who is of lesser value in every way. the hecklers in the audience are inferior to regular society in that they became drunk and spout slurs and hateful comments against richards before his outburst. but yeah, it wasn't very smart of him to do that. they deserved it though :P

[P0mt3]

@2and2make5 Bullshit. Perhaps they deserved to be called out for being loud, obnoxious hecklers. But he didn't attack them for heckling, he attacked them for being black. He shouted insults at them based not on what they did, but what they are. My problem with his rant is not that he got carried away. It's what he went after those guys for that I find deplorable. He chose to attack their ethnicity over something as trivial as a heckle. Someone who isn't racist wouldn't have done so.

[P0mt3]

And to add to this . . . I personally don't think anyone deserves to be called a nigger, I don't care how big of a lowlife he is. While I don't agree with batshit-crazy Al Sharpton on the matter of even using the word, I'm just speaking for myself, here. You have the right to say that word if you want to, but I have the right to think you're an ignorant asshat for doing so.

Do you think he would have called them niggers if they were white and did the same thing? You're naive as hell if you do.

[2and2make5]

@P0mt3 I know it's a year later. But no, he wouldn't have said the same thing. He would have said something that would have been mean to white people probably. But most white people aren't that sensitive, because they know it really doesn't matter.  They were being extremely offensive to him, attacking him personally and continuously, so he attacked them back. I agree though, saying it to someone who's black just to attack their race is wrong.

[nethaneld]

@blackblove4 Who says it is ok?

[LucidDivinity]

@blackblove4 No, not ALL black people are racist. Don't generalize.

[Jonzer1983]

@blackblove4 Its not, it goes both ways or it should be.

[sucha12]

lol you have to watch the show to understand the humour

[GabeUSAF]

That's because Brits laugh at dry humor. Your jokes are almost as bad as your food.

"One cannot trust people whose cuisine is so bad" - Jacques Chirac

[Percinho27]

You're American, I take it? I'd much rather an English Sunday roast or pastry to a McDonalds or KFC (your only contributions to food.) What does that say about you then, eh?

[GabeUSAF]

I would say it suggests that Americans are, by and large, fat and disgusting. Your point? I would also eat English food than McDonald's, unless my goal was to die young. However, there is an American fast food restaurant in every country in the world, so if I were you I'd be worried about America's most lucrative export: fat asses.

[zufgh]

you obviously have NO clue about british humour lol.

[gladeplugins]

Their teeth are worse.

[2222222222y]

jerry was about to start laughing.

[jarvisj99]

they had to do that scene like 12 times because jerry kept laughing....i dotn blame him

[lucypunch]

That's what happens when interupt the white man!

[unitzan]

I thought kramer was funny but know i think he is the worst actor and has the worst jokes.

[carlitos07way]

ok, i stopped reading it.. problem solved!

[tmanlivin4god]

Comon guys seriously, why is everyone still hung up on what he said in the club, just sit back and enjoy seinfeld and don't dig up the past.

[Thwarr66]

Good Of what He said They think the control belongs to them as long as they shut they mouths we shut ours tired of white and black crap just get along and stop acting like fools -.-

[yogo123]

racists

[FreshprinceofTJ]

Michael Richards..

NOT Jerry Seinfeld.

[Lattanzio57]

Kramer is still the funniest TV character of our generation. Everyone has flaws. Everyone hates everyone anymore. Big deal. No one here is innocent.

[blurman44]

saw the best kramer shirts on ebay....funny as hell...kramer is throwin up gang signs and sayin wat up my niggas....lol search seller lizardvintage

[whitefaction51]

Kramer is god. Look there's a nigger!

[unitzan]

yo really stupid and retarded if kramer was black and he said "LOOK A CRAKER" I THINK YO WOULD BE PISSED OFF STUPID SMALL MINDED BASTERD

[patrickd65]

get over it hes not a racist he just got pissed everyone ppl do say racist joke and slurs all the time, just enjoy kramer being kramer

[Supaduper]

Who says it's a flaw?

[user192021]

Going off on a racist rant in front of cameras and a large audience and effectively destroying your career isn't a flaw?

[Alphamale69]

KRAMER was simply saying what a lot of ofays are thinking. That deep rooted racism finally surfaced when he got angry. Had it just been anger at the hecklers, he would'nt have had to go racial.

[Alphamale69]

This dumb SOB only rode the coat tails of Seinfeld. He had and will never have a career as a standup comic.

[clarad002]

thats right and because of what he did that day ....

[rek0727]

ahhahaha love this show

[DisasterousManiac]

Kramer rules!

[kamero]

For frying out loud!

1) His name is not Kramer

2) This show and this clip is awesome, regardles werther or not he is a racist

3) I beleive he was joking but it was entirely unecessary to say something like that

thanks for this

[cannonball]

classic kramer...always fun to watch...thanks for the vid

[metalgear8871]

Stfu about him being racist. I guess it's all fine and dandy when a black makes fun of whites though, right? Or how we all hate mexicans, right?

[seanm205]

who cares what he said..you're not watching Seinfeld for Michael Richards...you're watching it for Kramer..quit being self righteous and go to work or pay bills or something

[Heineken023]

One outburst for which he apologised. Stop being pussys and get over it. Geez there's far worse going on in this world.

[roseofthedevil3]

LOVE IT!! =D

[mooseyjuice6t9]

hes fuckin racist and his career is over so get over yourselves

[Saeba1Ryo]

His career was over long before he showed his racist side.

[welcome69]

everyones racist HAHA

[user192021]

Lol. How is using the term "nigger" repeatedly not racist. Please explain that to me.

[add77]

Kramer, you messed it all up man with your racist behavior. Time to boycott.

[totti99]

"he's a nigger...he's a nigger...he's a nigger..." and people have the nerve to say that he's not a racist. Sure he said sorry to cover his ass but what he truly is was seen on that stage. If he's not a racist than I am scared to think of what a racist is capable of.

[pamdawbersdrughabit]

I was hoping Shoutbox would release Fridays on DVD. Guess I'm shit outta luck now.

[schizo36]

Well Seinfeld will still makes lots of money off the show cause he owns the rights to it. Yet i dont think people will stop watching it. This show is a classic just think of kramer before what he said. Anyways i do think in a few years to come people will sort of forget the kramer incident.

[G1974LATIN]

Look look !

IT IS KKKRAMER....

(PUKE)

[SunDance00]

love that show. thx 2 kramer=D

[mpauger15]

kramer is the man. Those stupid negros are going around and trying to act all innocent, but it was their fault for heckling him.

[G1974LATIN]

Your hate disguises me. Who raised you? a Hiena?

or wait, you came out of under a rock or something?

How come u are such a racist? ignorant go to school, educate urself for the better....

[user192021]

LOL. What does his hate "disguise" you as? An alien?

[histeve69]

Why isn't the heckler apologizing also for calling someone a white cracker?

[thebaal]

He got heckled and he heckled back, it is that simple.

[ezza61]

Aww, awesome clip...too bad his a racist

[mikeschufman]

Only because you simple minded brainwashed cunts let it bother you. Who gives a flying fuck. Are you like the official friends of the black community or something?

[Azure5473]

Shut your ass up Mike!!! You're a racist too.

[Darrukin]

i understand what ur saying he should have NEVER of done that i can just never respect him agian..

[GenerationDown]

would all u homos stop trying too "Oprah" this shit and voice your opinion somwhere else instead of in your boxers in a darkroom hunched over a computer, no one cares, white power!

[shutuphoe1234]

hes right niggers think they can say watever they want...last time a nigger called me a cracker i had to drag his ass with my truck...

[diebritney]

doesn't change anything- he's still funny as hell

[zoharsis]

0.o wow Kramer...ruined urself

[GreekCallas]

How and the hell does what he said make him racist? Have any of you ever watched BET and see what they say about white people? Give me a break and quit being such hypocrites.

[rkfade]

What does it change?!? These people are PERFORMERS. Do you think you "know" these people because you see them on the magic box in your living room? You don't know ANYTHING about them except they had a part in a hilarious TV show. The character Kramer, as he is written by many people and peformed, is still hilarious not matter how big of a MORON Richards is. Jerry Seinfeld isn't even funny in real life . . . ever watch his standup? Blegh. Yet this show is great.

[user192021]

A hero? Good Lord, get a life.

[luxardo2001]

please, dont blame kramer, hes a joker, i prefer black people but i can smile though

[Lilraylou]

U cant just let this slide, by him saying he was not a racist thats just bull shit, Cause i seen a shit load of people get mad in my life time and never once have heard them call someone a Jew, nigga , cracka or anything of that nature. That was just uncalled for. He knows hes a racist, just trying to cover it up.

[Two2Tru]

he is a racist.(period) And all of you who think he is not & that he did nothing wrong. You all may not know but let me let you in on a secret. Your a racist to... Be it in a closet or out in the public. but hey it's probably not your fault it's how you stupid parents & their parent brought you all up.

[cienanosdesoledad]

I am not buying Seinfelds cds. I am going to trow away the first series I got.

[WhiteIce1118]

can i have it?

[XRontix]

me too I'll never look at him the same way as before, but he's still funny on Seinfield though

[ChiCan76]

KKKramer

[crocodilewerewolf]

yeah i know... people make horrible horrible horrible mistakes, and we can never hold grudges but we have to accept apologie that's how we can get rid of this plague called racism... martin luther king jr didn't condemn them but rather opened his arms.... kramer apologized it's a horrible shame and we will no definitely look athim in a new more negative light, but it'll go, and kramer will remain a legend, who cares if he was only seinfeld! IT DOESN'T MATTER! HE'S A LEGEND!

[fuckinreds]

yea i agree that i wont be able to watch seinfeld and still laugh at kramer like i used to after he said those things

[supreme199999]

say goodbye to the seinfeld dvd sales, fuckin idiot kramer

[lucypunch]

yes

[raverkiddy]

kramer doesnt like black people

[user192021]

Huge Seinfeld fan here and like most people, Kramer is one of my favorite characters. But I have to admit, I can't look at Kramer the same way again. It really does change things.

[MCRAPPER91]

SAME HERE, NEVER AGAIN.

[tiredluke129]

I totally agree with you.

[pickachew]

it dosnt change anything

[BlindManNoFish]

People always want an excuse to hate. Congrats you simpletons, you found one.

[user192021]

Who was looking for an excuse to hate Kramer?

[pickachew]

i love seinfeld and kramer.but people say they hate them now because of what kramer did in rl.hes not a racist.if he was a racist he would admit it,he apologized to those people he insulted.and apologized on national tv with jerry and david.hes not a racist.everyone was laughing at him when he was apologizing, jerry is a good person for telling those idiots thats its not funny to laugh and that he loves michael.hes not a racist

[Azure5473]

Be serious!!!! This obviously means you have the same feelings or would have reacted the same way in which he did.Jerry was just trying to save face in hopes that he wouldn't lose too many DVD sales.David was actually laughing because he couldn't believe the nerve of this guy to come on his show with a half@ss apology as he did. Kramer's racist,maybe you should figure out just what that word means, and it is possible that you will figure out that you're a racist too!!!

[pickachew]

whatever u say azure, i still love kramer

[Azure5473]

Who cares pickachew!!! He is a great character on Seinfield(someone writes his lines..yup), but in his life off the show he is a loser, and that is exactly why he got heckled!!!!

[Someasianguy]

LOL

[orlandofriend]

Cut him some slack.. he's not a racist. He said some stupid shit directly to a black person who was heckling him. He's since apologized. Grow up man.

[supamatt14]

I agree, grow up. RACISM and calling people out on racials slurs isnt that big of a deal, i mean come on.

[nickell511]

oh..haha..dude i thought u were being sarcastic w/ ur response..then i realize that ur truly an idiot..u and ur friend.

[poika]

dont matter to me..if it was white people heckling him he probably wouldnt have said anything maybe would have just said shutup..and in my point he is a racsist if saying N*gger intentionally to a black person to try and get them angry YES that is racsim. i have lost all respect for him.

[Azure5473]

Him apologizing means nothing. He's simply trying to hold on to the piece of career he has left. Jerry had him on the show to try and save face and not lose too many sales due to his actions. Ironically, David was laughing at him for being a NIGGER(ignorant person)!!! Define racist, for me,please.

[saleen01]

hes a racist. Listen to what he said...if you dont think thats racism you need to watch it again. Just because he apologizes doesnt mean hes off the hook. Hes only sorry because his career is finished and everyone but you hates him.

[0Rick0]

"FIFTY YEARS AGO YOU WERE UPSIDE WITH A FORK STICKING OUT OF YOUR ASS! THROW HIM OUT! HE'S A NIGGER! HE'S A NIGGER! HE'S A NIGGER! THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU INTERRUPT THE MAN! THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU MESS WITH A WHITE MAN!" - No, you're right. Let's cut him some slack. I mean nothing what he said was racist. Nothing. Yeah and that apology wasn't fake, phony, or staged. Really sincere. Came from the heart and all that jazz.

[Truthiness231]

exactly, I concur. He was caught up in the moment and didn't realize what he said. While I'm thinking about it, there is becoming quite the problem with racism for whites in this country. BET can say 'cracker this' and 'cracker that' but you drop an N bomb and people go nutty. Anyways, just an observation..

[Azure5473]

Naw you need to grow up if you think that type of behavior is okay, thats childish!

[TheReichofNess]

Michael Richards is a legend. Plain and simple.

[dkrikori]

a legend? lol. please. he had a great character and is now a fading star. legend, please. ha!

[Sipheria]

yup, so true.

[kriZENry]

Friggin' hilarious!

[Wodey25]

Great show. Every episode is classic in some way.

[jbntx]

Thanks for the comment... seems to be one of the most compact & complete scenes in less than 70 secs that I have ever seen.
