I've just noticed that at 1:08, the firefighter is Michael out of Alan Partridge!

[nuppaluppagus]

[urbanrootz]

Mark Heap really is a genius... That's the bottom line.

[ChrisBrett2K]

@urbanrootz Indeed this is true.

[boydegg]

Mark Heap does it best - he's hilarious.

[pa20002000]

This was the first Big Train sketch I saw - never thought of show-jumpers in the same light since :)

[WoodenkingsMan]

I love how they act as children.Thats brilliant!

[pa20002000]

They really act like 6 year olds - well observed - good acting don't you think?

[WoodenkingsMan]

Very good acting - the moves, the mimics and behaviour. brilliant :-)

[Lala2616]

Oh the joys of random humour =D

I love how the firefighter is hysterically screaming at them to leave doesn't discourage them in the slightest =P

[queensland78]

Hilarious!

I work for the firefighters and I showjump on weekends!

This sketch shows jumpers doing what they do best - getting in the way!

What a funny combination - will use this clip in training at work.

[sweetappletits]

[thebirdman666]

total genious

[Ilikenuman]

the fireman at the start was michael the georgy from alan partridge

[thebirdman666]

well spotted!!

[trouserman71]

Also, the fireman with the axe is Arthur Matthews, one of the writers, who also co-wrote the wonderful Father Ted.

[OutrunTheWolf]

Michael the Georgy! The Geordie you mean hehehe :)

[Ilikenuman]

lol whoops.

[thatdarnsugarbees]

Nerdy prop trivia: the big pad of paper on the easel-thing next to the woman also appears in a Pauline sketch in the League of Gentlemen. It's got the list of crossed-out jobs (except for babysitter and bramble-picker) on it. :D

[Sunlight70]

Brilliant. Anybody got the "Poledancing Fireman" video? from Big Train? Funniest sketch they ever did...

[Robin54]

i'm a firefighter and have such an urge to do it when I go down the pole.

[AskaGreenDay]

my friends and I sneak up on each other at random moments and say 'do you have smoke...in your lungs?'

good when theyre in the middle of drinking and they go 'pffffffffffffffffffffffffff' and spray drink everywhere =D

[murielsartre]

"Is there any smoke in your lungs?" Hahahaha!

[loveupskirts]

its so funny this lololol.

[torresmatt]

ACTING!

[jolio2512]

Always brilliant. Big train was ACE! Spaced was pretty damn funny too.

[abbedabb]

LOL, I just showed this to my brother and he said "What does showjumpers have to do with firefighters? I don't get it! I won't laugh until I get the connection", and I just told him that that is British humour, lol.

[gerpegerpe]

how fucking original can you get, fucking genius work of art, to be able to make something so original in this day and age, just to think about immpossible sketches, that end up making comic sense......give em a comic oscar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Relyt22]

Replace the red coats with yellow shirts and you got yourself some Scientologists.

[Matuxmatux]

Absolutely fantastically Original!:D

[ealaspada]

This is one of my favorite sketches. I love that Arthur Matthews forte seems to be angry, hysterical screaming. Thanks for posting!

[muddyflucker]

Fantastic :))

[IrishSausage]

When Simon Pegg gets hit by the axe... Classic. And their faces, especially Heap's when they're having goes on the hose. Brilliant.

[soccom8341576]

That's really random.

[demeterAUS]

the face of that female showjumper playing with the taps cracks me up every time. So tragic...

[SixEightySeven]

Arthur Mathews, the writer of the sketch, is the fireman seen @ 1.23 and also later in the clip.

[0000KKK]

The sound is supposed to come out of your speakers. If it doesn't, it's not my fault. I can hear it.
