Bill Hicks: Life is Just a Ride

[xTheuglytruthx]

Another dead hero....

[D1cko888]

what a load of shit.

[1BOBBN]

Top man R.I.P Bill

[ZombieSurvivor777]

oj

[nbax5]

whohoo, obviously jesus

[parazit43v3r]

@nbax5 I love the guy. HOPE HE DOSEN'T DIE IN THE DESERT!

[ceezyxx]

8 people are afraid of the ride.

[pm108sstkteom]

@ceezyxx true but i would also say more than half the people in the world are

[angrygrunt]

it's a pretty shitty ride

[StarOfStar]

@angrygrunt its shitty ride if you choose it to be so

[davewoodring]

@StarOfStar it is shitty ride if your a policeman, cause everyone breaks the law is what i've noticed.

[BeautyHealthZoneBlog]

@davewoodring

Well, if you are a policeman, you are supposed to uphold the law. Also, I don't agree with you that everyone breaks the law, but on another note who wrote the laws and made the rules in the first place?

Yes, life is just a ride.

[davewoodring]

@BeautyHealthZoneBlog you don't see everything if you drive a car, so walk, roller skate, ride a bike and you see what is going on. It is a Matrix.

[BeautyHealthZoneBlog]

@davewoodring I'm not disputing it.

Besides, I don't have a car, haven't had one for years.

I tend to walk a lot though.

Of course it's a matrix, I was just thinking about that today.

[derman077]

Notice his hand gestures.

[cklester]

This is why I had to kill him.

[psy4live2house]

yessssssssssssssssssssssss

[Crecendos]

this is the essence of buddhism

I hope that dave chappelle comes with something deep as bill did

[bannanahammer1]

cult of dusty :D

[squamish4244]

A truly profound statement. It's an unfortunate commentary on comedians - and perhaps on the society they find success in - that the number who operate on Bill Hicks' level are few and far between.

[mindmelt13]

6 people are suckers of Satan's cock!

[bogglerful]

@mindmelt13 Relax, it's just a ride.

[mindmelt13]

@bogglerful Well obviously.

[GrittyKIty]

I remember, when I watched this earlier, and actually had no clue what it meant. And thought it was, some seriouse shit.

But then I found out what, he is exactly meaning.

There are always too sides to a story.

[drunkensquirreluk]

There are much more inspirational, deeper and justifiable words from much greater men. I think however that because Hicks doesn't prescribe anything or judge anyone that everyone who watches it can think they are amazing and feel good and this they say that this simple & weird notion is "beautiful". This is not deep or significantly meaningful, get over yourselves.

[Dewey1040]

@drunkensquirreluk Get over yourself... bill hicks is a comedian, he wasnt asking for anything in return, he lived his life to help open peoples minds across the world and to get a few laughs in the process, he was one of the most inspirational and brilliant comedians of all time. Now there are ass holes like yourself that judge him and his fans for your own selfish reasons. Yeah there are more motivational and inspirational speakers out there, but few are as profound and as correct as bill

[robin22391]

@drunkensquirreluk

you must not know his material well enough if that is what you think, and how can you suggest that what he said has no deep meaning, are you serious, it is the most meaningful idea in existence.

[MisterEvil1]

Six people have too much invested in the ride.

[KristopherJunior]

he's the man for sure

[chri2302]

damn true

[vjanda1]

dislikes :Debbie Gibson , Rick Astley and Vanilla Ice fans

[blizzard4422]

what a douche

[janityy]

Life is just a ride after u figure out how shit works which u can read on my comments on my videos in my favorites list

Each soul each person should find their will what makes them happy and they will SeE life thru that

For me my religion is Thelema and my will is walking path of the Fool to the Sage in the Tarot.

Tarot cards

Find ur will, do ur will

[pipilepew]

life is just a ride...i got this tattooed on my forearm:) laugh in peace bill...

[kryngangel]

WTF I WAS UP ON COKE AND WROTE TOO MANY NOTHINGS SORRY LOL

[kryngangel]

6 people live the same boring life everyday and are too close minded to understand anything about the world... They think that they are spiritual and nice people because they believe in god but they have NOTHING IN LIFE. Those are the majority of people that live for nothing... I'm sorry for those people.. think about it their whole life is just a big NOTHIN". Thank you for those of you who take the time to read this THUMBS UP MOTHAFUKAS!!!!

[bquintb]

this is where we're going. we're almost there.

[pwk22]

Achingly stupid. Take all the defense money and explore outer space.

RIP Bill.

[lgndarymeth]

@pwk22  How is it stupid ?

[nicolrobertbaird]

this is beautiful,...i found it while watching "american: the bill hicks story" recently at a friends house and as i looked out at the city it was as though i saw it crumble (end of fight club style) as i digested the words....it's enlightening, sad, uplifting, liberating all at once and the real beauty is that it can mean something different to anyone who hears it...to me it was the realization that society is a human created distraction (good or bad) but it's not LIFE...i could be wrong? enjoy

[roldie2]

@nicolrobertbaird  you could be but you're not, friend

[MarkMetalHead]

If only the whole world could hear this...

[MsTbeasT]

@MarkMetalHead They can...but they're stuck on the ride my friend...peace bill, you changed my life.

[Honkanen]

@MarkMetalHead  Finland's hearing, and I'm spreading the message.

[allaussiehiphop]

@MarkMetalHead If only the whole world would listen....

[Ionisus]

beautifull..

[MrIggaru]

6 people here have a lot invested in this ride

[iceguy0077]

@MrIggaru HA! HA! HA! THAT'S FUNNY CYUZ 6 PEOPLE DISLIKE THIS VIDEO AND IT'S RE\LEVANT TO DA VID! Seriously go choke on a dick and die thumb whore

[antimasonic]

@iceguy0077 my brother you couldn't beeeeee more deluded. whats more sad is your desperately obvious attempt at provoking an emotional response. wake up you silly silly fool.

[iceguy0077]

@antimasonic i love smug hipsters who pretend their bill hicks

[antimasonic]

@iceguy0077 haha I think I actually like you now after reading that reply. you're not all bad are ya?! peace n love to you brother

[iceguy0077]

@antimasonic do you really? Aw gosh now ya made me blush :)))

[TimeSpace111]

I never get tired of hearing this. Sometimes I need a refresher.

[Kurtz124]

He just wanted to die folks...just got fed off this shit. Well done people another dead hero. I hope you all irresponsible fuckers feel a little bit better now(im talking about religious people who throw their responsibility to jesus).

[2martino3]

Capitalism is the 'fake' ride... the notion of property, class, patriotism and money are all parts of the ride... Bill Hicks worked it out... and died from cancer?

[BrendanIsCool]

@2martino3 too much of a good thing, he would have burnt out

[MitchFinch]

@harndren90 because people are watching lolcatz

[martinmartiini]

... and .. what would You find in "Space" ... when the nearest galaxies are thousands of light-years away ... ????? "Space" ...

[TheYearTwentyTwenty]

@martinmartiini I agree there is not much to find. The exploration of space will give us a great understanding of how we came to be here, curiouity is what makes us Human, If we lose our need to explore with our childlike wonder.......then we are no longer human.

Unless you believe in God, if that is the case, then i'm wasting my time here.

[falkenfluegel]

pure awesomeness

[M0RACCA]

haha tell that life is a ride shit to a motherfucker who has to bake the bread he puts on his table. Takin comedians seriously, that is a great joke.

[Think4YourSelfMan]

@M0RACCA

[agadhahab1]

@M0RACCA ... There are no words... I honestly don't know where to begin.

[Politcalamity]

@M0RACCA Bill Hicks would probably agree, taking comedians seriously is a 'big joke'... and that taking you seriously would be an even bigger joke.

[TheYearTwentyTwenty]

@M0RACCA You don't get it.

[improviseonpunches]

hop on the 211, it's just a ride.

[jakegamesnake]

5 people are still on the ride

[TheYearTwentyTwenty]

I wrote a song which was inspired by these wise words, its on my channel if anyones interested in hearing it.

[Em3r1c4]

i showed this video to alot of people, 90% of them laughed at me that this is stupid. omfg :(

[TynansAnger]

The Allegory of the Cave, with a different allegory.

[Armando623]

space...

[hessaad]

maybe because only 46000 recognized the ride

[DrinkSkateSleep]

This should have 7 billion views.. everybody should see this at least once.

[Germanboy567]

The 5 people who disliked this have massive furrows of worry, a big bank account, and they brag about their family.

[Lolleka]

I love this guy. I miss him badly.

[jnfeehan]

Bill Hicks is a hero.

[CONSTRINGACY]

This dude is delusional.SHUT HIM UP!no seriously love is the problem not the solution!

[jnfeehan]

@CONSTRINGACY

I'd argue it's attitudes like yours that are the problem

[CONSTRINGACY]

@jnfeehan well each to there own who is to say no one has tried my method but they sure as shit have tried yours and its not working is it?

[jnfeehan]

@CONSTRINGACY

Valid point sir. Well met.

[bradleyw]

@CONSTRINGACY

Just interested on what is your thought of method? Possible to believe the reason love doesn't seem to be working is because it has become to late for change, the other side is to far in action. You can see that everywhere, taking youtube as an a little example and seeing the difference in amount of views the different sides attract. Yes your right ''Each to their own.'' Although ultimately that is the result of selfishness that won't get anyone anywhere... Sadly. ;) Peace.

[lepexi]

i dont believe in heaven nor hell, but i get the feeling hes not completely gone somehow. or im really high.

[TheDustyAlex]

/watch?v=xK_RHyiLYg8

BEST video of this thing. My friend made an edit of this it really IS awesome. Please look at this and help him grow, he has about 4k subs.

[morbashlurog]

learn how to grow your own food. learn now where water is.

[Cculturesounds]

Some people in this world need to have this sentences on a loop in they're head: it's just a ride...it's just a ride and maybe just maybe... Someday the people who have greatest power but fucking things up becase of their strength and taking shit too serious and not spending money on teh wrong things...Just maybe they would understand the meaning of this all.

[Hollyweed1]

I love you man.... we always gonna miss you. :'( May you rest in peace.

Inshallah.

[SteelRocker]

we need more people who aren't afraid to tell the truth like hicks

[haribo687]

FUCKIN AY

[veronicaEriksson]

:-)

[sinterQ]

1:44 ;)

[jjdiggincrates]

you have been seeking the same thing your whole life.... when my friends speak of times taking acid its like they understand what i have achieved through meditation.... awakening to the mirrors.... remember its all ONE (YOU). ever seen the matrix?

[jjdiggincrates]

ONE LOVE! do hippies create police or do police create hippies... ? ...the worlds a FUNNY place when you can see the creator working within the mind...

[Cashify]

smelly long haired bearded pot heads who live in tents were here first, man.

[antokindness]

Is this a vivid example of how ART becomes PHILOSOPHY or viceversa?

[jileel]

this is great

[eXPerienceyeah]

We let the demons run amok.

[Xxero0]

When I first heard this water filled my eyes. Bill Hicks will stay alive in our memories, even if not in reality.... after all, it IS just a ride, right?

[nicklanave]

yup

[Ph4nToMX]

Ive only realized how true his words are after using DMT

[nicklanave]

DMT?

[sealtoi]

DiMethyl Triptamine... something like that. It's a psychedelic. Listen to Joe Rogan talk about it if u still wanna know lol

[nicklanave]

haha Joe Rogan took it!? Ok I'm gonna go check it out thanks

[creps408]

lol.. you don't need DMT to realize what he is saying..

[Ph4nToMX]

you do to grasp the full extent, even beyond what he speaks of. "life is just a ride" is just scratching the surface, it goes far beyond human comprehension.

[creps408]

really? care to share ur knowledge?

[Ph4nToMX]

the english language is too limited to make any sense of it, its something you have to see for yourself.

[creps408]

Did you learn anything about re incarnation or an afterlife? Is life a cycle?

[jjdiggincrates]

@creps408 yeah it is man... its clear to you! your interest is of your truest nature

[creps408]

''your interest is of your truest nature''

what do you mean?

[jjdiggincrates]

its hard to explain exactly what i mean... but its like your intrigued by people and you can feel the knowledge they have because its all making sense on a deep level thats always been there its just a matter of acknowledging it... hope you get something out of that. ONE LOVE!

[Sychonaut13]

@creps408 - DMT is experienced during birth and death naturally and is in lots of ancient cultures. Most people who take it have a coming home experience. It reminds you, we're much more than a subjective body.

"I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together."

[MrSkate4weed]

jesus christ people chill out on the uppedy downedy thumbs

[manincash]

i love bill hick but WTF IS HIS HANDS DOING AT 1.06!!!!????

[xavictor]

ur a moron, didnt u listen to what he said? who cares what he did with his hand in 1 second.

[manincash]

ur a moron didnt u see what he did? who cares what he did talk about,

btw i love bill hicks :D

[y2jeff84]

a truly enlightened viewpoint.

[777mabus]

Halleluah !!

[inday811]

whosoever you are! go to hell!

[michalaq]

This guy is brilliant!! Respect!

[zbuzanic]

Money, money money. It's not even good to die if you're poor. They want us to think it's all about money and power. But it's not. Just look at all the rich movie stars, pop singers. Are they really happy with all that money and people that surrounds them? This video is great.

[Agui007]

You've hit the nail right on the head when it comes to actors and celebrities as David Icke said they're among the most insecure people and it's big mistake to look to these people. This truely is is a good video clip that shows how our world is.

[ortaparmak]

Excellent. This could not have been said better.

[TimeSpace111]

This is the greatest!

5 STARS

[greenday21]

truest words ever spoke

[judyrusso]

Brilliant! Life is indeed an amusement park..

[sturgismom13]

Wow LOVE IS the answer......

[handren90]

How come this video only has 46,000 views?

[mylille911]

handren90, I think it's because more people have put in out on youtube and other websites, so a lot more people have actually seen it. =)

[zarkbot88]

Cynicism is a bitch,

Life is a ride, enjoy and take it all in!

[ancientkiki]

yeah whats up with his fingers always changing

[fighterpilot2k1]

Is that a satanic hand sign he's making at 1:31..?

[Problembeing]

No you fool.

[anominos]

is that one of those theologian demons hiding on bills hands..on no wait its bill hicks moving his hands and fingers as-well,as arms as a human does

[WeAreWakingUp]

We're never alone, take it as it comes and Love it!

[Starbat88]

This guy understood.

People are ready to hear messages like this. It's time for the world to change.

[conscienta]

Profound genuis. This statement links to a multitude of belif systems, "science" (quantum) and consciousness.

[theflattestcat]

This man will be a bright, bright rainbow when he returns to this planet (if he hasn't already).

RIP

[v00d00child187]

ooohhh I so luv these words..cannot tell how many times I used these sentences as a reference...

hahaha "this has to be real" hahahhahahhahahahhahahahamuuuh­ahhahahahahahahhaha just great

[AndrewDewittBaker]

does anyone know how long this was before he died?

[alexmiddleton4]

This was his last european show, you can watch his last one thate he ever did was in Texas, I watched a documentary on youtube about him if you want to know about his life.

[ThumbWarDestroyer]

I like what he's saying but I wouldn't call him funny.

[acetate909]

then you're obviously too stupid to get the message....this is the end of his show (obviously) it's not meant to be the funniest portion of the show.....too bad you're too dense to get the message

Enjoy Dane Cook

[alexmiddleton4]

It isnt supposed to be, watch other clips when he's supposed to be but what he really wanted to do was wake people up.

[nassar46]

Life is just a ride "

i luv itttt

RIP bill hicks <3

[NeonTora]

I love him to death.

RIP Bill Hicks. =' ]

Incredible message.

[pjakelong]

life is just a ride... take the red pill or the blue... wake up out of illusion- out of the matrix... or climb out of the cave- as did the philsophical heroin in Platos "allagory of the cave.

[xmattycorex]

i got this whole thing memorized, it always makes sense of everything and makes everything better for me :)

[fuckpixies]

if we did this....

if we did that....

then what?

[Ultima55]

Show this to as many people as you can. Bill had a knack for wording it - while we may not have that knack... We can help spread the video!

[ghezoi]

he is my James Dean

[reaver550]

this has just been added to my senior project =)

[JWXendra]

You've been watching way to much of What The F*uck Do We Know?!. Horrible movie btw, when you get so many things horribly wrong not even some of the good things help save the entire package.

[MiSha400]

If you mean What the Bleep Do We Know!?, then no, I've never seen this film.

[JWXendra]

Good, then don't watch it. But yeah, your ideas were pretty much out of that movie :-).

[xmattycorex]

i have the movie and most of what i've learned through physics, chemistry, ancient philosophy, all correlates to what the movie is trying to explain so i don't know...

[JWXendra]

Well, I of course cannot know how things really are. The movie does to some extent explain quantum physics, but then goes on relating it to mysticism and to things that quantum physics is not claiming. I mean cmon, one of the "experts" claims to be channeling a what, a 35000 year old warrior-spirit? And many of the examples are downright horrible, like the water bottles. I'm interested to hear how this all correlates to your understanding of science? The movie is just a far out interpretation.

[LittleEmoBoy001]

Science is a far out interpretation of far out processes. What do you expect?

[JWXendra]

I would be glad to watch a movie which suggests alternative viewpoints (no matter how far out, if backed up by credible evidence) on how the world works. I don't wish to see a movie take the concept of a credible field of science and turn it into something it's not.

But how is science a far out interpretation? May I ask what is a credible interpretation then? Or are you suggesting that we puny humans are too insignificant to be able to understand anything and that all our ideas are useless? :-)

[LittleEmoBoy001]

Quantum mechanics Began with an idea, and then it extended into a formlated paradigm. Same thing with time, relativity, normalcy etc and the whole of mathematics.

There is the argument that these are just natural languages that we tapped into but then couldn't the same be said of spirituality? If so why not bridge the gap between the two? As far as Ia m concerned the most 'credible' evidence can indeed be first hand experience.

I

[JWXendra]

Wise words, but the ideas of science have been born from observation, put under investigation, and been consistently reproduced. I think that if spirituality would be linked with science, it would only match the first criteria. Spiritualism is observed by people, but it is very hard to investigate, and even harder to reproduce. Not once have I heard of recorded miracles/mysticism, or even people with the same idea about for example God (not counting collective ideas found in holy texts).
