Alice Cooper decapitation

[dicko195]

anyone suggesting AC deaths are fake should remember he has been getting killed on stage since the early 70's, call it horror shock gothic but call it entertainment for sure

[kawaiifreak860]

LOL AT THE LITERALS (Or is it liberals? ROFLXD)

You can clearly see it's not real, just look at that fucking thing.

Clearly plastic not metal.

So like deal with it.

[asnaes]

Alice has always been hardcore!

[90alexcatalan]

a decapitation is a horrific sight to witness . but nothing compared to a man walking into a propellor froman aeroplane and i saw that!

[bravesfan528]

did you see it?!?!?!?! i think i saw how they do the decapitation

[catslayer314]

@bravesfan528 i saw it as well

[bvblover1313]

@bravesfan528 i seen it too XDD i know how its done

[bravesfan528]

@bvblover1313 actually i think this was an old way he did it cause when i went to another vid i couldnt see it

[guitarlordification]

how does he do it?

[drsloan]

Seeing Alice beheaded on stage was one of the highlights of my (long) concertgoing life. That and Iggy Pop flinging a mic stand over my head. Both had me grinning from ear to ear.

[reinventmadness]

MAKE SURE ALL ALICE'S HAIR IS RIGHT BEFORE YOU DECAPITATE HIM.

jeez XD

[LeonJordison]

@Deathraged

She's seriously considered the most shocking thing right now!?

That disgusts me. Maybe in mainstream pop, but nothing else.

[todotilly]

WTF this is GROSS

[TacomaPaul]

Why do MORONS say it's "genius" when it's Shakespeare... but it's "fake" if it's Alice ???

And YES !!! I AM comparing Alice to Shakespeare !!!! Damn right !

It's a SHOW !!!

And he loves Stephen Sondheim ! (pure Broadway)... he even has a song that parodies (and USES) part of "West Side Story" !!! (Gutter Cat vs. The Jets)...

It's all about the S H O W ! ! !

Genius.

[scottschultz31]

why even bother to put your stupidity on the internets? "Fake"? ITS ENTERTAINMENT!!! Gene Simmons doesn't REALLY puke blood up, right? stupid people rule the world.

[kissfan864]

They do it more lifelike now

[TheGork7503]

Happy Halloween Everybody!!! Love, Alice

[JoeyNOTShaw]

OF COURSE ITS FUCKING FAKE. NO ALICE KILLS HIMSELF VOLUNTARILY EVERY SHOW? WHAT ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID?

[Kori114]

Lame... You can see the bottom fall out at 0:29.. Just freeze frame that shit...

[BeatleStonesGirl1971]

what other rock star gets decapitated on stage?

alice rocks!

[Deader87]

Alice Cooper is the Most Gothic of Gothic-rock. Impressive illusion too, that looks extremely-real

[xxxspartan]

u can c the bottem fall out

[VladvonRuuski]

@xxxspartan yea but not when ur at the actual concert

[luckygirl1995]

from a distance and in concert, it's pretty damn impressive..I saw him in concert at rockfest in council bluffs :)

[niemamskarpet]

o kurwa

[MetalHagstrom]

how the fuck is he doing that?

[DizzyDerwish]

I saw Alice do this in 1977. The stunt looks totally hokey now after all the ensuing years of robotics, but back then it was impressive.

[dedlyduo1217]

ooooooooooooooooh, thats how they do it? sweeeeet :D:D

[mrdrummer1818]

i mean come on i love the dead is that all you can say

[riseagainstrules]

lmao you can see him fall out the bottom part of it before it hits him :P

[Rachel00165]

Of coarse it wouldnt be real, hes still living today. Just enjoy the entertainment!

[TradaBoy]

alice has been doing this routine since the early 70's ... kids please move onto what you know and post comments there ... miley cyrus needs you ...

[Surmeliperi]

I don't think it is a bad idea...all he wants to entertain and be different from the other

artists

[SonicLOVA55]

100% Fake, you can clearly see he feel through the floor just before the knife hit him.

[Thebibs]

Malcolm Young on guitar! L0L 1:20

[toryo1]

@Thebibs xD yeah lol

[Killerus93]

bullshit but nice bullshit :D

[glimmer2158]

So this is what's called "Head Music"?

[CrueLoaf]

Not a very clean cut was it?!!

[quwicken]

LOL ok people who have to comment that it is fake, really have a loose grip on reality..Of course it is fake... the man still lives and performs and goes on to perform at the concert..geeeze..why do people have to say it is or isn't fake? lol its a SHOW people! I say Bravo Alice for entertaining us for so many years!!

[sullyfan86]

right on. It's stupid to say shit about whether its real or not. He performs stuff like this for entertainment and thats it. At least he does stuff like this which you can't say for most bands. They just play thier music and leave. Alice give you more.

[Giok8]

fake

[nevrkenesr]

no shit ya bollocks

[libertarianmart]

no fuckin wai, lawl

[themanwiththevan1]

@Giok8 lol are you sure its fake? if you are correct u need a diploma coz u are a genious

[Kilu71]

@Giok8 Fake??? You sure? 'Cause everybody else was thinking it really happened!

[Dan13397]

The bottom of the wooden bit that his head wz on fell off wen the blade came down so he doesn't die and there's allready a head in the basket but brill show though iv got a model of this exact moment

[aylen1794]

Very Funny !

:D

[DuckmanProductions1]

what concert is this from?

[coolguy19877]

lol that was soo FAKE XD look at :27-28 how he pushes his head down

[ChokeslamKing]

well its not gonna be real is it?! thats a stupid way 2 sell records.

[eevasson]

It was very good in the 70!!!!

[ronson232]

The guillotine trick (they were all magic tricks, designed by a magician -James Randi) was a simple deception (in a large stadium, all you really need to do is bring the lights down, and you can get away with anything)

However, his hanging trick nearly killed him in 1987. Some of these stunts were definitely not easy... Doing them alone would be hard work, let alone while giving a rock concert at the same time.

There's a whole lot of rock stars that owe a lot to this guy.

[NOTxTHATxGUITAR]

Seriously though, how the fuck does he do the hanging thing? Is he actually hanging from a rope?

[1Supersaunders1]

yeah but from the back of a fuckin stadium or what ever u aint gunna notice

[MrJessops]

Simpsons did it first

[TheBlueLightblub]

pause it at 0:28 then you'll understand

[espejel92]

lol this is funny and looks stupid

[DylanVanella]

So that's how he does it.

[StevenMovieMaker7]

Ahh i get it. the bottom head suport thing is loose. once the blade falls he pushes hes head down then the bottom suport comes off therefore he stil has a head :)

[mickgold100]

Yes that Blade is Real, Alice Said in an Interview Before. Can't beat the Hanging Trick though

[arrestedshrimp]

is that blade real?

[Schumalice]

It's not a real blade but it's pretty heavy, so if the trick fails he may have his neck broken...

[alexxxx4909]

you can see him fall right before it hits. duuhh

[MoPar7055]

OMG is this real? He would only be able to perform this song once. How does he finish the rest of the song?

[Tengent]

lol...

[Jakobgustafsson]

hed doesnt realy kill him self stupid! its just fake.

[Reingur]

AC and his generation is immortal. Just look at Alice he is still among the best and he dies at every concert, KISS (original) are still kicking ass. It is all the new artist who just cant take a simple hanging or death by guillotine that are spoiled brats.

My dream monster of rock;

WASP (old show)

KISS (original line-up)

Alice Cooper all in the same concert .

[joesparx666]

peter criss sucks tho...if kiss was to tour with cooper..eric singer would have a long ass tour

[satan36xxx]

Peter Criss does suck, Good call

[BOBPOPROCK]

he immortal that's why he do that brothers and sisters...

[javisthompson]

it was clearly shown in this video there was a ledge at the bottom of his neck that opened. this is like the michael jackson's flying jet stunt...its not real

[Hulsie]

I wish he would decapitate a volunteer from the audience at every show.

[porcubelin22]

Do you think he woke up one morning and said like "Say, i'm gonna risk my life being decapitated in my shows, hell yes!". Or MAYBE his manager showed him a trick absolutely 100% risk-free to add in his shows to trick people like you? Wake up. Doesn't take a graduation to understand that the worst thing that could happen if the whole thing goes wrong is you can see what the trick is. Just as it happened in this video.

[koStasMetAL4EVER]

he fell down if you notice before the blade hit him !! ALthough is very very dangerous!!

[goldenagerock]

i really don't know but for real, that one safety catch is the only thing that keeps his head from being cut off!

[clarissa414]

How does he do it!?

[BittenByR0ck]

quickly before it hit his head the bottom of the wood fell down so he could get his head out and then it made it look like his head got cut off like very closly

[clarissa414]

Ah I see - thank you :)

[AnhJeffahhh]

whahaha can't they do a better job? xD He fell down before the blade hit him. Atleast make it LOOK real :P

[goldenagerock]

He could of actually died from all those years he's been doing this! So it's not something to take lightly as an audience! That part is serious! It's not fake!

[goldenagerock]

You guys!! That guillotine is real! I'm not kidding! I heard it on one of his interview's! Even Alice said it has only one safety catch and could possibly one day have his real head!

[cavallodelmare]

where could i find this interview?

[javisthompson]

of course he said that, becuase he knws there will be people like you who would believe that stunt

[Corym67]

Rename the video, Alice Cooper does Bret Michaels at the Tonys impersonation.

[iJafa]

who the fuck is thumbing down all these comments

[chikadees2008]

ok well no duh his decapitation was fake! but seriously its freakin alice cooper! his hanging was fake to! you guys are just pointing out the obvious to make yourselves look all "SMART"! well shut up anyone with brains knows alice cooper is the god of weird and the disturbing! hes just doing what he does best!

[saintkillen1]

Let's face it, if it wasn't fake there probably wouldn't be an encore :p

[Grefintiuk]

alice cooper is the god of the metal

[TheLauracore]

One of my favorite parts of "Trashes the World"!!!

[partymixcheesy]

omg shouldn't someone like tell like someone that this man is like dead like omg

[CassandraAlessandra]

DAMN YOU!!''strungoutbeaner '''

[conoba]

The amazing magician James Randi developed that act for Cooper.

You can find a video of him telling the whole story here on youtube.

[3mocuti300]

i seriuosly

love alice

[xPirateQueenx]

It's not fake. They just have an endless supply of Alice clones to replace the ones they hang, decapitate and electrocute. Duh.

[iuliani81darck]

@xPirateQueenx its fake yo' 

[Gjuternor]

@xPirateQueenx lawl^^ nice comment :P

[TrppyTV]

ALICE FUKIN RULZZZZZZZ

[strungoutbeaner]

you guys are fuckin morons

[GhostofVoorhees]

I kinda like the 1 in moneray where he sings a cpmpltly diffrent and the mayor kisses him and spits the blood into audiance

[crazzynctra]

LOL, you obviously don't know AC history.. of course this IS fake, otherwise we'd have a headless man on tour right now =))

[partymixcheesy]

its not fake i was at the concert and the ambulance came the concert ended after that

[FreshandAlive]

You poor thing.

[SpicyDonuts]

your a idiot

[DojangRat]

"you're" "an" idiot

[Dmitry1011]

go smoke another one, you idiot, obviously the dicapitation was completely fake

[adrianestuvoalla]

asshole,

1)its obiously fake you can see his hole body falling through

2) well then how does it come his alive now

3) cmon obiosuly yheres always an ambulance at a metal show just in case someone gets injuered

4 this is his most famous PROP and thats it just a SHOW you asshole

[steviei]

its fake pause at 0:29 you can see the bottom gone. when the light go off they quickly put the bottom back on.

[guitarguy1347567]

yea ur right its fake. i honestly did not read ur comment at the time but paused at soon as the blade comes down. the bottom falls out cooper goes down to. still cool none the less

[Azreal23191]

Well it's obviously fake, i mean come on if he really got decapitated he couldn't finish the show

[BriMar65]

speak english you morons....u suc

[r3ini]

cool, COOL, AWESOOOME!!!

[guillotin15]

porque es sadico y morboso que la gente disfrute ver que a algien le corten la cabeza . por eso digo que estan locos

.

[Wuayker]

es arte payaso! asi como existe el lindo y bonito arte de museo y esas lindas pinturas existen los performance y musica del arte bizarro con mensajes bastante claros, la cancion dice "i love the dead" nunca has pensado q morir es mejor q vivir? no es q vallamos a suicidarnos, pero la muerte no siempre es mala, ya q te libra de este mundo tan paranoico y maltratado.

[guillotin15]

ustedes estan locos

[metalheadbanger15]

¿porque?

[Hersheyluver6]

that is so fake! u can c the thing that pushes him before the blade gets to his head

[Excrementalist]

It's fake? Really?

Damn - and I thought he genuinely got his head chopped off at the end of ALL his concerts...

[Wuayker]

show comment -> hide comment (N)

[celepaska]

ou SHITT!!! he survived?

[welchi93]

there is another piece behind the part that goes over the back of his neck which drops down when the bade comes down and the bottom half drops aswell if you pause it at 0.30 you will see that the bottom is slightly at an angle the only reason i no this is cuz i gt the dvd which if anyone wasnts to no is called alice cooper trashes the world

[Pacman1029]

Freeze it at 0:28 and youll see the bottom of the head block drop out

[666SatanKillKill]

You'd think with the guilotine that it would be a pretty straight cut. What was all that excess coming out of the bottom of his head?

-Satan

[Shittywaffles]

actually you see his whole body drop before the blade even comes down.

[ac123productions]

The trick was pretty easy. I first saw it and thought...omg...how did that happen? So i played it back slowly and if you notice, he drops his head just as a wooden piece in the guillotine drops,giving him just enough room to drop through the floor in a split second. Pretty cool trick =)

[v1cCh4k0wsky]

wow that was really really homo. wat douchebag would cut his own head in at a concert

[gothkid287]

lol i cant tell if you are joking or not...

[xchemcolex]

hey dumbass, he didn't really cut his head off. it is an effect. who's the douche bag now?

[xchemcolex]

to: v1cCh4k0wsky

from: xchemcolex

[BigCheeseMC26280]

hahaha no shit they didn't actually kill him

do you think they could stage that? (no pun intended)

[LeonScottKennedy999]

This guy is 1337!

[mearte]

Crazy!.

Mad!.

Marie Antoinette!, jaja.

Good "truco. But it´s a mask, my friend. Everyone can perceive it. XD.

Watch my videos.

[Silentt29]

i dont think he does the guillotine anymore because i was at a concert back in september and they just hanged him.

[VonSeux]

hanged him?

thats freakin cool ;p

[saintkillen1]

They do a few different excecutions now, they do hanginng, guillotining and elecrtic chair.

[W0orMy]

i cant bellive he's dead???

[DoItLikeMathuz]

NO he didnt die...

HE faked it

my mam n dad told me months ago...

HOW CAN HE DO THAT THOUGH

[lexmarks567]

what band was backing him it looks like skid row

[cBaOc13]

Luckyturk - good one [thumbs up] :)

[cBaOc13]

You're right about the board and the fall and the paint, but the blade, according to Vernier's NPR interview, was in fact real, which does add a little danger considering if the board didn't fall or if he raised up at all he would have been cut down in his prime instead of just being under-appreciated at 59 years of age by a gaggle of impressionable, unwise teeny-boppers.

[luckyyoungturk]

that's a shame, I was really starting to like him. He would've had a bright future.

[iRuneScape]

If you pause at 00:28 you can see the thing his head was resting on fall down before the blade came down, and the blade was a fake blade with red paint on it. And the head was already in the bucket which was fake.

Still cool though.

[VonSeux]

you can't see that from down the stage ;P

[beatonbros]

Really? It was just FAKE blood? And they didn't ACTUALLY kill Alice Cooper? Wow, this is news to me, thanks for pointing that out. Everybody can see in this video that Alice simply falls down, but its reasonable that you pointed that out, since this is one of the few videos that actually allows us to see that happen. Although it is not reasonable to point out things as blatantly obvious as the fact that there was fake blood and that there was already a fake head in the box.

[weezing22arbok]

wow. i didnt figure out the effect! hehe.

[JacobSwe93]

cool

[superdios]

hell yeah!!!
