Tom Rielly: A comic send-up of TED2006

[PtAltmVansanTarr]

LOL silly TED, everyone knows we figured out technology cannot better human kind after WWII,cold war etc

[TheKakapo]

Haha, that wasn't Chinese, it was Korean!

[ravishethwala]

4:20 priceless..

[elerayrah]

aww it's rives at the front there with gore hehe

[DontTouchMyTea]

Funny, but only if you've seen all the talks.

[bajawind]

WICKEDLY FUNNY!

[guitarguy93]

Omeegod, is that a heckler at 3:47?? At TED??!!??? Jesus f'ing christ on a cracker!

[scholzie]

It's a person laughing. Get your ears checked.

[various8]

Comic was great - car advert at end not so sure. They're a bit slow on the uptake seeing how hydrogen car was invented over thirty years ago - and the guy who discovered it was knocked off. Still nevermind better late than never when it comes to something as important as the existence of the whole of humankind.

[c6gunner]

Funny guy. I loved the joke about Al Gore being president. Hilarious!

[ki6eki]

THAT WAS KOREAN

[harryogre]

Best use of props by a comedian in all of 2006.

[jspear21]

Tom Rielly is a genius! Clever, creative and oh so cute.

[ratholin]

yeah I loved how he parodied so many of the lectures.

[UncleKennybobs]

That was quite good actually.

Didn't realise Al Gore was there until I watched this, shows how ignorant I am.

[hydelockjan]

I am a fan of TED talks. If you've watched that year's series, this would be so freaking funny. Down right mockery.

[Inga2222]

Why He's So Fat?

[TerhiTheFinn]

What's your problem?

[AR333]

LOL at the religion part hahaah

[Bayouroyale]

More exercise in 21 minutes than this fat fuck has done in 21 years

[dayoyomasta]

lol thats probly true

[TerhiTheFinn]

What is WRONG with you people?!?!

[dayoyomasta]

not much lol

[semiliteratedgod]

TED sux

[hayseman]

why because you cannot understand what they are talking about?

[semiliteratedgod]

Because there are too many self-righteous morons.

Only 1/10 on their vids really worth watching.

[DanHasAMillion]

only 1/10000 of your comments are worth reading

[semiliteratedgod]

yea, I meant *of* instead of 'on', there was a typo.

though comments are a different genre, you moron.

[DanHasAMillion]

you think i'm a moron for saying a fraction of your comments are worthy of posting. well then the guy who made this video must think you're a moron for saying 1/10 of the videos are worth watching.

so for not noticing that, you are truly ignorant.

[semiliteratedgod]

I don't think that I've posted 10,000 comments, where did you read them?

And even your implication is wrong, as I said, comments are a different genre.

You know, I like these deep meaningful discussions with high school dropouts... Nope, you're not a moron, you're a very clever guy, Ok? Great, now STFU.

[guitarguy93]

Okay. How about you stop posting comments semiliteratedgod and get back to your position at the drivethrough.

[semiliteratedgod]

is that your job guitarshit12376, you pathetic Daxflame and LisaNova subscriber? I don't despise blue collar workers, but I do despise fucking morons ... :)

[sspoke]

is he suppose to be funny? i haven't laughed for all of the 20 minutes this been running whats wrong with the people did they get paid or something to pretend to laugh lol?

that computer idea is a joke but its not funny ?

wow.............. epic fails :\

[Treknologist]

I am so glad someone did this! This is the funniest TED talk eva!

[DejaViewed]

Awesome, but can we please have the talks referred to in response to this one so we can undertstand all the freaking in jokes?

[baronmorris]

BEFORE WATCHING THIS VIDEO...

I agree with the comment by salserops -

if you haven't watched all the 2006 TED Talks, you will not get the jokes in this video, which are damn funny if you get the references. It is obviously an irrevereant comic wrap-up of the conference, delightfully tho sometimes shocklingly irreverent. I'm glad the attendees have the humor to appreciate it. This "talk" is mostly for them, I'm sure.

Go TED! Competence is contagious.

peace.

Obama! ;-)

[Zetimenvec]

he screwed up pie after 5

[baronmorris]

lol

I thought he made it to 7 or so...

the funny thing is most people would never know. fun at parties - just keep listing random numbers.

[Zetimenvec]

it's 3.14159, not 3.14152, which is what he said... though to give him credit, after that 9 he missed, the next number is indeed 2; 3.141592

[IBEZhacks]

You screwed it up before you even started on the number, it's pi, not pie.

[sspoke]

u fail its pie

[xGothimox]

Pi you fucking idiot

[Zetimenvec]

sure, i fucked up, but what's important is that you understood me.

[mcmuffins369]

He messed up! When he recites pi, he says "3.1415...26" it's 3.1415926!

[Potalot]

wyea it was michel shermer

[Wened]

Can anyone name to with Video's he is refering? I recognized 90% of them but i do not remember names of them. Like Led Zepelin song backwards, who did that?

[Jeorney]

Led zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven". You can find the reverse version on You Tube.

[salserops]

Here's a little tip from your Uncle Carlos. Do NOT watch this video unless you have seen ALL of TED 2006. These are all hilarious inside jokes. if you didn't see or attend TED 2006 you may perceive him as "worthless". but he's not. This is funny.

[azoapes]

This guy was worthless...

[CheeezMaster]

How contrived a TED talk. And please, Rielly, for your own sake, lose weight and buy other pants.

[joh3]

That was fucking hilarious!!! Who is this guy? I love TED but do not have any qualms about a few sharp sticks in the eye. WONDERFUL.

[Gicior]

"I wish to god you were the president". That's not much of a compliment.

[medicinalpink]

this is really funny if youve seen the others

[Kahalachan]

Blah. TED is good for the intellect, not comedy.

[smokeyjwood]

people laugh at anything.... not funny at all to me

[marjan15]

Wrong title. He is Tom Reilly.

[jcheng003]

"Dutch to Chinese"???

LOL, the writing was Korean and he was imitating Japanese!

All asian cultures/languages are not the same. Stupid Canadians.

[x86op]

All asian cultures/languages are different. Stupid asians. Touche! ;-)

[mortiphago]

you know you've watched too much ted when you can identify more than half of the parodies here :P

[pockets881]

watched too much TED? I dont understand :)

[baronmorris]

lol

[rodrigo211295]

*--*

[frenchys69]

loved it!

i wish i knew how to quit you~!!

[test123ok]

i get what hes doing..but i dont find it funny at all.

[tooberwoober]

NOT THAT FUNNY.

[OMGLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL]

Lol! XD Polar bears drowning and bird flu, global warming! XDDDD THATS SO FUNNY XDXDXD

[gkdrummerboy]

It's like that other guy who talks about stuff....scientist, it was great.

[Zerph21]

The kiss sealed the deal. Lol.

[thkaal]

It would have been funny if it wasn't so political.

[jack4440]

is this like a parody of other teds?

[thevigiles]

yes. After watching the rest of them you'll understand a lot more.

[Wened]

I had seen every TED video on Youtube. That one is the best! Of course only after wathing the other ones first :)

[miscreantpyro]

Yes Tom we're totally uckedfay
