I saw this right before I went to sleep one night. That translated into me bursting into laughter while brushing my teeth (gross), bursting into laughter while pulling on pajamas (painful) and then giggling in bed (which, when one is alone in the dark, is somewhat scary to hear, even if you're the one causing it). It was a surreal combination of joy and fear that night.
@walkerneo wouldn't it make sense to always read the comments after watching youtube videos. the comments section is there for people to discuss these things. it's up to you to read them after watching, not for them to refrain from discussing certain things incase it's spoils it for you.
Can someone help me out trying to find another one, it's set on like a breakfast tv show or something and webb's the interviewee talking about his new show where he invites everyone round his house that has the same birthday or something and its basically a pisstake of some other celebrity...? (sorry if im being vague i just havent watched it in ages and dont know what to search lol).
You guys do realize, they could have just created a softer replica with just enough weight to look believable without hurting him, and added the crashing sound in afterwards?
Such an amazing sketch, regardless of who wrote it. And yeh the typewriter thrown is not real. If you look REAL closely near the end, he unintentionally clips it and punches it away.
"A few months later, I was watching a DVD of the first episode of one of my favourite sketch shows of the 1980s, Absolutely. In sheer horror, my nostrils expanded to the size of bowling ball finger-grips as the negative feedback sketch started to play itself out before my eyes. I’d seen it in 1989, loved it, forgotten it, and then “had the idea” 17 years later. "
He realised it himself and apologised to the guy who made it.
@KoRnIbanez123 Nah, you're right. It used to be fine, but it's corrupted and lowered in quality recently [along with a fair few videos on YouTube, I notice].
I would re-upload, but I've lost this clip, sadly.
@MarkJoseph4 I'm sure Mitchell and Webb were inspired by that sketch. Absolutely inspired a lot of recent sketch shows, though none have them will ever match the insane brilliance of Absolutely.
@jamesgravil No offense, but that's a ridiculous notion. Mitchell and Webb aren't known for remarkable special effects, but you can see some examples of this in the clip about being able to levitate biscuits. Asking an actor to take a typewriter to this face is ridiculous.
@jvonm618 Clearly you have no life apart from youtube comments, so if you will, please refrain yourself from talking to me, as i dont like mongos talking to me.
I love it! there is Robert webb being a total Dickhead, then while the centre dude is explaining about the extreme negative feedback he is all nice, then back to being a total wanker!
I love the ending! It makes me laugh every time I see it!
