Look Up More (Extended)

[AcrusoProductions]

@thejew67 "... or just to make them look up" lol

[hiabbeyhimaggy]

Anyone else notice how the bearded guy at 0:30 has been in a lot of their videos?

[firdousny]

@hiabbeyhimaggy whats wrong with him? They are called IMPROVEveywhere. All of these people are volunteers/people who show up just to have fun and be apart of these events; they arent employed or anything. That guy with the beard is a regular new yorker, hes enjoying what he does with IMPROV.

[hiabbeyhimaggy]

@firdousny Oh, I wasn't saying that as though I had any sort of problem with him. Please don't make assumptions over your interpreted tone of a textual comment. Personally, I think he's one of the most entertaing of the regular New Yorkers. It's easy to tell everyone in these videos really enjoy doing these things with ImprovEverywhere. I was genuinely asking if anbody else has noticed him in multiple videos. That's all that was intended - a question to others who enjoy these videos.

[MsChocolateCHIPPY]

@hiabbeyhimaggy Yes, his name is John Ward. But he recently passed away in 2010.

[hiabbeyhimaggy]

@MsChocolateCHIPPY That's so sad. It was lovely to see him at all, though. May he rest in peace. :')

[theconvoe]

was this recorded on a toaster?

[firdousny]

@theconvoe look at the upload date? it says 2007. Derp derp.

[theconvoe]

@firdousny Last time I checked 360p wasn't a new invention

[firdousny]

@theconvoe Like I said, look at the upload date, August 4, 2007. The 360 and 480p option wasnt added onto any videos until March of 2008. But of course you knew that, right?

[theconvoe]

@firdousny Wrong...there used to be a button that said "HQ" rather then 360p. Who made you the youtube cops anyway though? Get a life dude...

[spadcw1819]

bringing people together through laughter...amazing :)

[OneMillonAce]

Im hungry..I'll be back and watch more!

[xx99TheCreatorxx]

Ah 240p... We meet again...

[dontbotherreading]

THE MUSIC SCRED THE SHIT OUT OF ME

[bonezillion]

I wanna do this! Where I live is so boring.

[KilluaXIII]

people doing something unusual and fun in this stone cold society is, I guess, heartwarming

[qwertyjklasd]

foggy.camera.

[Simplydeadly1]

wat waz the point of this?

[iCoverSongz]

we meet again, 240p.

[Metalstr8jacket]

Makes me teary every time I watch this!!! Many of the videos are Artistic and Beautiful!!! Great job, I hope to be part of something someday, especially this. Cheers!!!

[TehStrangeTaco]

0:29 - 0:30 Isn't that the improv agent who was on "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?"

[klb161]

@TehStrangeTaco yes

[IcyBlade3003]

@TehStrangeTaco And the Best Buy one.

[Racingirl911]

Man! This is one of only a few reasons that I, once in a while, wish I lived in a big city! Pretty cool to watch but I just can't imagine pulling this off in a city with a population of only about 9 to10,000! Heck, chances are we would know most of the people "up there", and/or we would more than likely be related to them!! LOL!!

[lilblackbackpack80]

I would look up more if I wasn't trying to avoid all the litter and dog poo people are gracious enough to leave behind... I miss looking up!

[DillingerEscapeMan]

I looked up 'more' in the dictionary

[corlongwell]

way to go number 51!

[JessiNick97]

Who else thinks the background music should have been "Cell Block Tango"?

[robn23x]

i don't know why, there are many many great ones, but this is the best in my opinion

[MysticSkyDancer]

Awesome! That was a really creative Improv! :D!

[animated0l3JECTS]

This show is magic.

[JustCause2Blog]

COME TO CHICAGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[spaghettiTG]

This is so awesome! Come to Seattle! We NEED you here!!

[Ashes2493]

Number 51 absolutely made my day!!

[TwistedProductionsX]

This is the true human spirit

[BenjaminKuruga]

@TwistedProductionsX Improv ooohhh how I love it :D and Improv everywhere is my favorite channel

[zombiecamelzzz]

[leqwe]

I love these videos! Those who sees this "live" and those who participate will definetly have a fun memory from that day.

I want to be a part of something like this, to bad they don't do it where I live :/

[cooldood42]

I really wish somone could do somthing like that here or I could be apart of it somehow this has to be one of my favourits or my favourit it just seems magical in a way or maybe magical isnt the word but its just amazing i guess like i dont know hahaha its cute I love it I want somone to do somthing in store windows here would be awsome

[ShaunBrownTV]

@cooldood42 start it up yourself, :)

[HayleeHalogenX]

Thumbs up for 51's solo!

[alexzlrulez]

[kikiloveization]

that was great!!!

[iEnjoiSushi]

toby would've owned the solo c:

[axellesavary]

that was on my 10th birthday ! xx

[MidnightGrunt]

What if this was actually some coordinated terror plot? 0_0

[Emsilbea]

I love the music, it represents so well the gleeful nature of their antics. GOT A CREW IN NEW ZEALAND?

[JordNWhit]

@Emsilbea Let's start one up!! That'd be sweet as!



[Emsilbea]

@JordNWhit I'll be in Auckland in a two months. See you then.

[Headcheezonium]

I'm still pissed at the DSW floor for kicking everyone out.

[sbknights3]

Dude I gotta move to new york to be part of all this amazingness!

[CaptainPura]

LONG LIVE IMPROV EVERYWHERE!!

[romeltin01]

dancers at the epic tetris game dunno f that is on snes...........

[XxXxxXxX14471]

LOVE IT!

[TheJew67]

*so people look up more

[TheJew67]

@RandomBEARWITHaHAT society has a tenancy to look down when ever they walk and it seems depressing because they miss out on what is going on around them. that's why I believe they did this do people would look up more and realize there is a lot to see in the world.

[JackRabbitSlim]

@TheJew67 People don't look down at the ground any more though, even sadder: they just stare down at the phone in their hands, probably texting someone or looking on facebook, usually while there are friends or family walking right next to them.

Gotta love modern times...

[skating1611]

@JackRabbitSlim I don't see how that's sad at all. Yes, I love modern times very much.

[Proletariat12]

@TheJew67 There rarely is anything to see up unless it's something out of the norm that would catch your eye anyway.

[h4xzOor]

@TheJew67 I only look down when I'm walking because I dont want to step into dog shit lol

[haxxoromg]

@TheJew67 that was so inspiring that i all of a sudden have the urge to go cure cancer, end worldwide violence, discover the key to immortality, and eat a watermelon

[oopsalady]

@TheJew67

im going to try and look up a lot more now. thank you sir or madam for that insight.

[annie10103]

@TheJew67 It's because we don't want to step in dog shit.

[ScaryMonstahh]

Those were some of the best dance moves I've seen

[RandomBEARWITHaHAT]

i looked up more on google, i dont get what there trying to tell us

[Stinoism]

Best channel evah

[shannonbosco]

love it. you guys rock.

[Linice926]

lol this is cute

[KMxJainaLeighxKM]

i would've done the chicken dance...

[EdeLovesGerrard]

LOLL this is a pretty mad idea. the solo's were hilarious!

[Anaias321]

Pretty neat!

[notblondeswede]

I was 12 when this was made...scary.

[kdtdancer]

Hahahaha I love the solo!!

[trumpetprodegy92]

AWESOME

[Jazset]

lol #51 did the victory dance from toon town

[AnimalLuva2010]

lol this is gr8t nice job. my fav. part was when they all did jumping jacks.

[Bennuhne]

i absolutely LOVE watching these videos

[CRAZYMARSFAMILY]

go #51!

[keyshlaDROPdead]

Forever 21!! :DD

[raich3421]

One of my ALL time favorites. Worth watching again and again.

[Dukky14]

Frueza Burta is near union square

[NeomegaX]

It's awesome, but I don't get the "LOOK UP MORE" phrase. What's funny about it? Everyone acts like it's super clever, but I just don't get what it means beyond looking up more at the sky and the buildings and whatever else might be up. Help me up? :P (English isn't my native language, although I thought I understand it quite well...)

[jwxie518]

@NeomegaX the whole point is to get people's attention. at first people were puzzled by what was going on up there. then they saw the sign and realized it was a "prank". ha. laugh.

[corncornrocks]

@NeomegaX maybe just a metaphor of sorts to convince people to take note of their surroundings more often...idk

[isaysmileplease]

@NeomegaX I think the group as a whole is mainly trying to attract attention as well as honestly improve other people's days. "Look Up More" is jsut their way of telling people to look around more to see things they may not otherwise notice. I guarentee people miss good things like that (although maybe not quite that big with an audience) because they're too focused on getting where they're going and don't observe what's around them.

[1Pandaking]

@NeomegaX people are known to stare at the ground when going places. So if you look up more you can see things going on around you compared to staring at the ground.

[itsdaeleon]

This is most definitely one of my favorites :))

[dFuZePredator]

That was freakin hilarious , best one of all time is Frozen Central Square .

[corncornrocks]

@dFuZePredator you mean frozen grand central? lol

[BevinGregory]

This is definitely one of my favorites from you guys. Awesome!!! I'd love to see that in person.

[pinky09punk]

omg? my hihgest rated comment is missing what happened?

[teetiger999]

LOOK UP MORE!

[ReaderWriterArtist]

One word: EPIC.

[FragzAndPies]

music is what!? PLEASE someone tell me :(

[ThisUsernamePwnsBTW]

UGH! Youtube is constantly un-subscribing me from you!!!!!! Every time I watch your video, I have to re-subscribe.. gosh this sucks

[Benniekarl77]

@ThisUsernamePwnsBTW

No you don't. I thought that for a while too, the same thing happens to me. But if you look at your subscriptions, you'll see you're still subscribed...don't worry bout it

[BLLTProductions]

@TheBLTProduction XD I thought that was my comment for a sec (my user name)

[BoundbytheContract]

you people define the term "fear no art." :)

[lucyrbd509]

I want to live in NY now. As in NOW.

[futuristfood]

ART LIVES

[lloveComedy]

I would have put "All of you lose the game!"

[jennyluvsgreenday]

definitely don't get a show... but worth a replay button... HELL YES!!!!!

[readingwench]

These videos make my heart happy :)

TBPH I really don't want this to become a show, because then it would be formal, known about, and less special for everyone involved

[shaqatk4884]

@readingwench trigger happy tv was on for a while though and through it all it still never lost its charm ._.

[nisbahmumtaz909]

@shaqatk4884

The UK works differently, I believe.

In America, news spread like wildfire, good or bad.

Inevitably, something like this will be known nationwide within weeks.

[ITerenceI]

wooooo

[TheBLTproduction]

i'd totally move to new york just to see you guys do something live

[turnitcolorful]

i think if they get a show on TV is not gonna be awesome anymore, cause people's reaction will not be the same, cause they already know them. so..

[AnonymousDontWorry]

You Just Got Punk'd ................Epic !

[Sc0ttPrian]

First note, first thought. PSYCHO!!! Great sountrack, great movie. (now to unpause and watch this)

[Sc0ttPrian]

@Sc0ttPrian +d

[blitzergeldert]

66 people don't like to look up

[pio96]

I would have loved to see that! I really want to see one of your shows.

[searchingly]

genius. pure genius.

[eolller]

i would love to see one of these things happen

[delmer22]

Love it!!!

[sarahbrush123]

Mad skills!!

[superpheonixfire]

0:30 I've seen that guy in a lot of these events...

[emarieb231]

@superpheonixfire I believe that man is part of the actual Improv Everywhere company/team. if you see their Millionaire video, I'm pretty sure the guy on the show is the same guy you see here, as well as the Santa in ImprovEverywhere's funny DVD commercial from a few years back. :)

[SneakyGeeky]

@emarieb231 That guy is, I believe, Agent Wimpy. He also play Tolstoy for a "book reading and autograph section". Pretty amusing fellow if you ask me. And yes, he was invited on to Millionaire.

[UsernameMadeNChina]

ImprovEverywhere getting their own tv show? Nah, they would be too famous *.* then get too predictable D: then it wouldn't be as fun I guess...

but that's just my opinion lol

[cloud6531]

XD the most epicst thing eva

[Whit3Wolff]

oh u guys should dance there, that would be so EPIC :D

[Jenchens]

I love Charlie! Number 51 is not bad either. Very artistically shot. ( :

[noasthings]

I WANT TO BE THERE SO BADLY :D

[Smilesxsunshine]

This one is probably one of my favorites! :)

[combinedover101]

Those 65 people seriously need to be stopped, in a fiery pit, cause there is no way it ain't awesome!

[happyc00kie]

That would make a fantastic marketing tool!

[xXxTheHannesxXx]

come to germany !! Want to do that here, too :D

[yoSoyBoricuax33]

this made my day and it just started

[robinamsa]

Wow... back in the day of grainy cameras and montages - They've come a long way.

[philipfotboll]

[Chirimorin1]

@Glee1love As long as it remains the same: doing random stuff at random locations with people not expecting it ;)

[Dageki]

@Glee1love I hope it's on the discovery channel. That's the only interesting channel I get. :P

[eightbenjamins]

Should have had iJustine do a solo :)

[mekura]

this is freakin awesome.. why there is 64 dislikes on this video... are they douchebags or they just don't know how to enjoy life.

[prettycupcakesxx]
