hahahha and later in the movie they close the tower because they say an american had a heart attack at the top. aww man i love comical irony in movies
@Goatoftheforest In the movie, the couple is actually Canadian. Colin Farrell's character just makes the off-hand remark to explain to his befuddled coworker why the couple is so angry.
It is odd people are making so much about this. It is a minor scene, and not even relevant to the plot of the movie.
This scene is really funny, but the comments suck. You have Europeans on here stereotyping Americans and you also have Americans stereotyping other Americans. No 60% of our population is not obese as one of the top rated comments says.
@wtg2989 The couple in the movie are Canadian. Colin Farrell is just making a little joke to explain to his confused friend why the couple is so angry (because his friend did not hear Colin Farrell call them "elephants," so he doesn't understand why the woman is angry and yelling).
In any event, this is a minor scene, and people are making much too big of an issue out of it.
@keosahawk hahah okay you win, I can;t come up with a bigger way to fail than misusing the whole > thing. Maybe beleiving in a god would do it... Nah, too much effort.
americans cant get pissed at this because the stereotypically cheesy irish, british and other european characters yall do in your movies and shows is a 100 times worse than this
too bad collin farrell has to come the country he's trying to make fun of to earn a living. what? there wasnt a hollywood in the bumfuck swamp you came from fucking limey cunts?
as usual America has to provide for you and then protect your spineless twats when ever you get attacked, just like we did in WW2.
other wise you would be making youre shit movies in German today
@unreal030 Obviously shows you don't know history. Just like you have no idea of any geography outside your country. Collin Farrell is Irish not English you silly cunt. But most Europeans would not expect you to know life outside America. If Europe fell to the Germans your country would have been next. After 9/11 I would not have confidence in your countries protection, it was like Pearl Harbour all over again. The only reason the the U.S entered WWII was because of Pearl Harbour.
@unreal030 Oh and read up on Dušan "Duško" Popov who was a double agent working for MI5 who warned the U.S about the possible pending attack on Pearl Harbour. But again most Americans (not all) are arrogant and did not listen. Maybe people will now learn form Pearl Harbour and 9/11.
I love how Ray just sort of scuttles about in a circle and the guy still can't catch him! The expressions on Colin Farrel's face in this film are hilarious!
I don't think futurestoryteller was doubting that the actor was American based on his making fun of Americans. It was his accent, which is definitely not American.
@drewdane40 Good grief! Another person who has not seen the movie commenting on it. The couple is revealed to be Canadian later in the film.
The joke is not that Colin Farrell is making fun of Americans, but rather that he was rude to the couple, which his coworker did not witness, and to explain why the couple is so angry to his confused coworker he plays on the stereotype of rude American tourists when he in fact was the one who had been rude.
@chatterbox11 eh no ya eejit the couple colin farrels character kicked the shite out of in the restarant are revealed to be canadian, these fat shits are defo yanks
@libertycaps666 I don't understand your comment. Sorry, but you are being the idiot.
In the movie, it is later revealed that the couple is Canadian and Collin Farell's character gets arrested for attacking them. It does not matter what you think, I am simply telling you what actually happens in the movie.
Also, the joke is not about Americans (or Canadians), the joke is Collin Farrell is rude to the couple, but he explains to his confused friend that they were rude.
@chatterbox11 are you actually retarded, the couple here are different from the couple colin farrel attacked in the restaurant who were later revealed to be canadian, the family here in this video which i was commenting on are american... and the joke here is obviously colin farrel calling a fat yank family "a bunch of elephants" i dont know what the fuck your on about gobshite
@libertycaps666 You are very silly. You cannot even spell "idiot" and you are calling me "retarded." Did you even complete basic elementary school?
Also, whether the couple is supposed to be American, Canadian, or Chinese still does not explain why so many people are getting worked up about this scene (including you). It is a very minor scene in the movie, and it is not worth getting angry and arguing about the issue, and this was my point.
@libertycaps666 You are making yourself look even stupider. The Gaelic Irish word for idiot is "amadan." "Eejit" is how some Irish people pronounce the word "idiot," which is an English word. When you write in English, you spell the words correctly. You do not spell the words as you would pronounce them when speaking. So, yes, you are the definition of an "idiot."
Anyway, I don't have the time or desire to play with you any longer. Have a nice life. Goodbye.
@chatterbox11 hahaha i pronounce idiot as idiot what the fuck are you on lad, eejit is a irish slang word with a similar meaning, and yeah you best quit while your ahead man cus your making americans look pretty fucking stupid seriously haha
Obviously not all Americans are like this, and anyone who believes it is an idiot, however every country has their stereotypes which all have some grain of truth to them. Now everyone stop whipping out things you looked up on wikipedia to make or break your case about whether or not America sucks and watch some more goddamn movie clips. None of you are coming out looking particularly rosy in this situation.
America, calm down k? If we have to put up with your terrible stereotypical English characters in TV shows, all the pip pip tally ho's and cherrios, not to mention the remaking of all our best programming, then you can take shit like this and stop getting so defensive.
Ha! Ha! Ha! I'm an American an I'm amused --- even though it's a grossly exaggerated stereotype. Morbidly obese people -- especially ones that would have had to endure embarassing airport security checks and narrow airplane seats -- would be well aware of their bodily "limitations" and would try to avoid awkward situations such as this one.
As an american i can tell you is that alot of american tourists are very rude [cause i traveled to europe and SA before and its utterly appalling] and yes- fat. 60% of our population are not fat, but OBESE. They also tend to act like they know it all and are very loud. Gives people like me a bad name
The joke is that Colin Farrell was rude to the couple by calling them elephants, but his friend doesn't understand why they are so angry, and then Colin Farrell plays on the stereotype of rude Americans when he in fact was the one who had been rude.
It is silly that so many people are worked up about a minor scene in a movie that had rather limited release. Also, the scene is not even relevant to the plot of the movie.
Haha dont get hyped. Us english are stereotyped as being posh and having shit teeth around the world, americans are stereotyped as being slightly arrogant and very fat. The majority of the time neither of these stereotypes have any bearing on reality. Dont get offended, it happens to every major cointry in the world..
Frankly, the American stereotype in Europe I much prefer is that of us all wearing jeans, cowboy hats, and cowboy boots and eating nothing but cheeseburgers all day . . . Although, the whole "eating-nothing-but-cheeseburgers-all-day-thing" does lead to the stereotype depicted here. Cause and effect can be a bitch sometimes.
its funny cause the fat cunt did go up the tower,and had a heart attack lol remember he told harry the tower is closed and poked him in the head.harry proceded to beat his head in with his gun
Would all of you guys take it easy and just laugh? Why is it that every video that has anything to do with nationality always has to spark some comment war about national pride? It's pathetic. I'm American and thought this scene was hilarious. But not as hilarious as watching the midget get karate chopped in the neck.
That guy is clearly not American, I'm sure he's supposed to be in the movie, but if you've got a solid ear you'll notice that they didn't actually find an American actor. Besides - he's probably Canadian. What about the Vietnamese?
@overheal1987 I think a lot of American comedians make fun of America, actually. They probably just had to cast a non-American because everyone knows that there are no fat Americans. We're all slim and healthy as can be ;)
Right, so you pointed out that he's not American because you have a "solid ear". And then your solid ear tells you he's Canadian? Really?? Do you have any idea what a Canadian sounds like?
@riddleman65 Are you stupid? (Before you get all pissy, I didn't make a statement - I asked a question.) The point is the actor is obviously not American, and the *character* might still be Canadian - it's a joke that relates to the movie. I'm surprised with you taking it that seriously you didn't ask me about the Vietnamese.
Are you stupid? You didn't even address my question at all. Was "He's probably Canadian" supposed to be a joke? He doesn't sound anything like a Canadian.
Wait, so it WAS supposed to be a joke? Well, you know it's a successful joke when nobody else in the comments gets it, even the uploader himself. Do yourself a favor and never consider stand up.
@riddleman65 Do you know what the difference is between an actor and a character is? Do you know what 'in the movie means'? Do you have the basic reading skills beyond that of a kindergartener? - Apparently not.
>replying with two different comments instead of sticking them off in the same box
Seriously, do you even internet? Either way, yes, I know what the different between a character and an actor is. You're referring to the character in the movie being Canadian. Does he sound Canadian to you, bro? NOPE.avi
@riddleman65 No dude, you're either a troll, or a dunce, there's proof. If you had any semblance of knowledge you'd realize the misunderstanding you stumbled into and stop embarrassing yourself... (comment appears)
'do you even internet'?
'NOPE.avi'
Dumbass. Oooh, the troll got me. Do you know what loser is? because you are one by definition.
@riddleman65 Rent the movie. The couple is explicitly revealed to be Canadian later in the film.
So many people are getting hung up on this little scene. Moreover, the joke is not about Americans! It is about how Collin Farrell's character is rude (which his friend does not see), and to explain to his friend why the couple is so angry, he plays off the stereotype of rude Americans. That is the joke--he was the rude one.
The joke is not really about Americans. Rather, it is about how Collin Farrell was rude to the couple by calling them elephants and to explain to this confused friend why they are so angry he plays off the stereotype of rude Americans.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
People like this Fucking moron Pogmothon80 better keep in mind we are not all fat. Alot of us are accually in very good shape, And we werent the Fucking spinless basterds that gave are gun right up. Oh ya you son of a bitch. Who saved your asses in the world wars. Thats right it was as fucking YANKS. I allmost allways like people from the U.K. intell I meet someone like you.
@enok45 theres so much wrong with your comment I giggled a little. For one thing I'm american. For another Colin Farrel is an Irish Actor who in this film plays an Irishman. The Irish stayed out of WWII, their only involvement involved POWs that wound up in irish territory during bombing runs on the UK.
Theres also the language here: "Yous are a bunch of **** elephants" addresses the Tourist Group, not their Nationality.
@enok45 As for Pog his comment was tongue-in-cheek, in case you missed it. Pog Mo Thoin is also Irish for "Kiss my Arse" - Pog not being british, is in fact irish, and again was not involved in WWII which again has no bearing on this youtube clip. Thank you for your comment.
@enok45 Addendum: "World Wars" - The US was never involved in WWI. Individual americans did decide to join foreign militaries at the time to fight in the war, but to say we as a nation saved anyone at that time is beyond silly.
@overheal1987 - "After submarines sank seven U.S. merchant ships and the publication of the Zimmerman telegram, Wilson called for war on Germany, which the U.S. Congress declared on 6 April 1917. The United States was never formally a member of the Allies but became a self-styled "Associated Power". The United States had a small army, but, after the passage of the Selective Service Act, it drafted 2.8 million men[102] and by summer 1918 was sending 10,000 fresh soldiers to France every day"
@overheal1987 I agree he was being silly and definitely overreacting, but the United States was indeed involved in World War 1, Woodrow Wilson urged Congress to declare war on April 2, 1917 which they did on April 6, 1917. We never an official member of the Allied powers but U.S. troops were sent to France and engaged in combat. Although it wasn't like in WW2 where the United States had a much more active role.
@overheal1987 Uhh the US was most definitely involved in WWI. Over 2.8 million men were drafted in the US, and at its peak 10,000 Americans were arriving in Europe per day. If it weren't for the additional American forces, the Hundred Days offensive, one of the first successful Allied offensives of the war would would have been much more likely to fail.
@enok45 When the hell did you save anyone's ass in any World Wars let alone serve in any of them? You think living in the U.S. means your collective conscious participated in the entire history of this country? Even if your parents or grand parents served it doesn't give you the right to claim any sort of ownership of that experience you self righteous bastard. That is some pathetic, arrogant bullshit.
No wonder those "americans" were rude, they were Yankees from up north, and BTW we are not all "Yanks", when I was in europe I saw plenty of overweight folks, plenty, so don't throw stones. But this was most defin. anti-US, a sign of worse times to come.
I really laughed at this, was just funny. 10 minutes later this is very bad, this is American reality today. Way too many are grossly overweight and if you tell the truth about someone you are rude. The politically correct crowd has done it's job of brainwashing the public very very well.
This crap is why the U.S. should stop all foreign aid. 800 million to Egypt to renovate a bunch of their mosques in the hopes of improving foreign relations. Yeah right! All they do is keep on hating and laughing all the way to the bank.
Hi YP. I just finished reading a book called "Surviving the Economic Collapse" about a guy who lived through the collapse in Argentina. In the book, he went on and on about not living out in the middle of nowhere, like you said, because in Argentina people living in the middle of nowhere became easy targets. Cheers Tek
@PopsDUIel Yes literacy and the lack of incest does suck. I wonder why the rest of the world hates the states and votes Canada as the best country to live in :O.
This scene is brilliant...it's only flaw is the obvious casting of British actors as Americans; now would they do that? It's doesn't detract from the hilarity, but it's distracting nontheless, and a blight on an otherwise perfect scene.
I love this movie. I saw it while living in Canada. The Canadian stereotype was so not played in this movie haha. It was funny how the Canadians were bigger assholes then the Americans haha.
As an American this scene is funny to me, but if you look at recent studies you will see obesity rates in the UK are rising. In the future you'll have to find something else about us to make fun of (not that it would be hard).
Being an american, i found this movie epic and this part funny as fuck.
I dont hate euros or anyone one type of people, i do hate stupid annoying fucks, but thats not a whole fucking country or type of people. They are everywhere..
In any case, If your obese and offended by this, well, it may be harsh, but its true, you cant run well at all.
Its funny later in the movie they talk about how the tower is closed because some one had a heart attack. Wonder who that was?
Haha when I saw the episode of Louie with that fat guy on the airplane I told my friends that he was the fat dude from in Bruges and they were like what's in Bruges?
@justmyself991 haha, im guessing you watched it again last night on channel 4 and wanted to watch all the good bits again on youtube?, thats what im doing anyway lol. I definitely agree with you, its an amazing film.
I'm American but I don't find this offensive because my parents are from Ireland and Colin Farrell is legend. =] Plus the fat guy is a Yankees fan, boooooo! :D
@cumminspower2256 Im American and I can see why others hate us, we are a bunch of jack asses who think we are better then everyone else. go to DMV or Walmart thats proof we are no better. lol
A shame they don't sound American.

Are you stupid? You didn't even address my question at all. Was "He's probably Canadian" supposed to be a joke? He doesn't sound anything like a Canadian.

Seriously, do you even internet? Either way, yes, I know what the different between a character and an actor is. You're referring to the character in the movie being Canadian. Does he sound Canadian to you, bro? NOPE.avi

@riddleman65 Rent the movie. The couple is explicitly revealed to be Canadian later in the film.
So many people are getting hung up on this little scene. Moreover, the joke is not about Americans! It is about how Collin Farrell's character is rude (which his friend does not see), and to explain to his friend why the couple is so angry, he plays off the stereotype of rude Americans. That is the joke--he was the rude one.

@futurestoryteller The couple is supposed to be Canadian in the movie.
The joke is not really about Americans. Rather, it is about how Collin Farrell was rude to the couple by calling them elephants and to explain to this confused friend why they are so angry he plays off the stereotype of rude Americans.

@enok45 theres so much wrong with your comment I giggled a little. For one thing I'm american. For another Colin Farrel is an Irish Actor who in this film plays an Irishman. The Irish stayed out of WWII, their only involvement involved POWs that wound up in irish territory during bombing runs on the UK.
Theres also the language here: "Yous are a bunch of **** elephants" addresses the Tourist Group, not their Nationality.

@enok45 Addendum: "World Wars" - The US was never involved in WWI. Individual americans did decide to join foreign militaries at the time to fight in the war, but to say we as a nation saved anyone at that time is beyond silly.
overheal1987 1 year ago 5
@overheal1987 - "After submarines sank seven U.S. merchant ships and the publication of the Zimmerman telegram, Wilson called for war on Germany, which the U.S. Congress declared on 6 April 1917. The United States was never formally a member of the Allies but became a self-styled "Associated Power". The United States had a small army, but, after the passage of the Selective Service Act, it drafted 2.8 million men[102] and by summer 1918 was sending 10,000 fresh soldiers to France every day"
dpwoody2010 11 months ago
@overheal1987 I agree he was being silly and definitely overreacting, but the United States was indeed involved in World War 1, Woodrow Wilson urged Congress to declare war on April 2, 1917 which they did on April 6, 1917. We never an official member of the Allied powers but U.S. troops were sent to France and engaged in combat. Although it wasn't like in WW2 where the United States had a much more active role.
acmarietti 11 months ago
@overheal1987 Uhh the US was most definitely involved in WWI. Over 2.8 million men were drafted in the US, and at its peak 10,000 Americans were arriving in Europe per day. If it weren't for the additional American forces, the Hundred Days offensive, one of the first successful Allied offensives of the war would would have been much more likely to fail.

You think living in the U.S. means your collective conscious participated in the entire history of this country? Even if your parents or grand parents served it doesn't give you the right to claim any sort of ownership of that experience you self righteous bastard. That is some pathetic, arrogant bullshit.
