Monty Pythons Meaning of Life - Suicidal Leaves

[awesomegamedude]

scary cartoons O:O

[billabongodrum1]

i'm sure he wasn't talking literally but referring to all manufacturers of dairy products

[earlymorningeagle]

Brilliant! Life has no meaning. It’s just what it is and it’s forever and ever indestructible beautiful mystery full of Joy if you like that sort of thing!

[zytigon]

For a fabulous good humoured look at the meaning of life try, 'The reason driven life' by top author Robert M. Price. His thoughts are like gold dust and weigh in ingots in this book. Also try authors John W. Loftus, Dan Barker, Valerie Tarico, Victor L. Stenger on youtube

[Fulfilling568]

the bit befor this is better :D

[THS1989]

Terry Jones does the best scream when the first leaf falls. It never ceases to crack me up

[kozmon0t]

The grim reaper spends most of his time getting dead bacteria

very busy job

[Leviathan268]

@kozmon0t He should be thankful that viruses aren't living.

[GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep]

lol too funny

[FoGGeRdk]

rofl at the end xD

[Eldomina22]

Imagine the shock Christians/Muslims/Jews are going to get when they die and find that, after their life of trying to save us all, God is going to say "You had no sense of humour, it's hell for you, you fat baboons".

[CaptainViral84]

it is hard to belive that every fall we play with thier dead bodies

[BoaVenom18]

i'm wearing a hat

[MegaVergan]

Leaves can do that?

[HNCS2006]

somehow i get the feeling that got this idea from Dante's Inferno!! How nice =D

[BigbotCollections]

Funny! But Terry really made it creepy for me in the end.

[KitttyNinja]

well...this is something completely different

[Jadama0]

I laugh every time!!!!!!!

[PepperGothic]

OMG Can't stop laughing XD

[IDPREFERNOT]

Every leaf is sacred, every leaf is good.

[saturnstargirl]

Lmao I thought it was the soldier speaking and he was going to get shot and fall!!

[ProdigsProductions]

Any time my life's feeling a little shitty I just remember I'm not a leaf.

[rocksoliddude1]

so this is why leaves fall off trees in autumn =]

[CharlieWillisVG]

im always torn between wanting to laugh my arse off and wanting to hear every word

[karamaniac1]

It's an idealistic-simbolic video!!!

It's never 2 late!!! Lets all e-suicide by deleting our fb-profile or letting it rot & perish!!!

[CrackSnortingSailor]

And now for something somewhat different

[theotherguy245689]

thumbs up if the grim reaper at the end sort of somewhat creeped u out

[GurniHallek]

And now something completely different...

[bestshowontheweb]

Makes me think of boardmeetings...

[TheBronxShogun]

"My God this is terrible! Will somebody please stop it?!"

[RoldanIncorporated]

I feel so bad for raking every year with a lawnmower..

[SethComposerGuy]

I wouldn't want to be standing under that tree in the fall.

[Epsonthegiraffe]

OMG....I was searching for this a long time now. I couldn't remember where I saw it and what it was called.

[mollymousemm]

XD

[PunkrockgirlBFR]

Omg, I love it xD

[mccarthystuart]

The reaper at the end was more sinister, than depressing-it really creeped me the hell out.

Pure nightmare fuel!!

[oldsoulyoungbody]

So a Ginko tree is a cult suicide?

[oldsoulyoungbody]

So a Ginko tree is a cult suicide?

[charici]

Autumn would be awesome if leaves fell down like that xD

[Nani101]

A-MAZING.

[TheRealGilliamFan]

This is my FAVORITE Gilliam animation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[elmogetsnuked31]

Every fall, leaves will fall off and die, then new leaves will grow and take the other leaves places and then die and so on!

That is truely...the circle of life!

[soumyaaymous]

crazy guys with crazy ideas :)

[Qwinkly3]

This is hysterically funny. I think they should have quit before the grim reaper, though. It wasn't necessary, and changed the mood.

[glhmtv]

I CAN'T LEAF WITHOUT YOU!

[MrAbcabccbacba]

wtf hahaha

[theprodigycg]

Funny LOL!!1

[Kalawishis]

Evey year millions of leaves commit suicide in the Fall...AND THEN WE RAKE THEIR DEAD BODIES INTO PILES AND JUMP IN THEM!

[Eritsasaku]

@Kalawishis Hey, quit trying to make me feel proud of being a human.

none of that "it's great to be alive" propaganda good sir.

[sharperguy]

@Kalawishis At least we cremate them afterwards.

[MrCrowley45]

mummmeehhhhh dadddeeehhhhh

[TheBeatlesRoooock]

When I first saw this part in the movie, I had no idea what was talking and I was so surprised when it was the leaf... ;)

[KetchupSplodge]

It's so funny when you hear this deafening scream of terror and anguish and then one leaf drops off very, very slowly and floats gently to the ground.

[hiimgod801]

Every year thousands of leaves are takeing their own lives.

You can help prevent this buy donateing to your local chartiy for leaves, and be sure to tell all your leaf friends just how much you care.

The more you know.

[DalekHunter1994]

@hiimgod801 GI JOOOEEE!!!! This video makes me sad, but your comment makes me happy.

[servomoore]

The grim reaper at the end is a bit of a downer, but Christ is it funny prior to that.

[HaSenHuNd1999]

i LOVE it xD

[xemily91]

this makes so much more sense now.....

[LOLIG99]

lots of leaves died to bring you this information...

:P

[MSKR111]

Even my Kids Love this!! Encore Encore!!

[kristell9]

Gotta love Python, but Meaning of Life was one movie too many.

[Floobegusted]

Right stop that, it's Silly! (Sorry I just had to)

[petitequinte]

Seasonal Affective Disorder FTW

[HedvigU]

This is the funniest thing ever.

[abridgeduploader]

Aha... tragic.

[GoonerAli]

Aussie copper shot himself in head when caught out sending filth in e-mails, 100 more 'oz pigs' being investigated. (All the leafs drop bit) Hilarious. (Fingers crossed eh?)

[DrSparrowShrike]

LOL so thats wat happnes in autumn

[TheSaguaro22]

RIP

[Sarkane]

So what if you don't get it; If it's not "funny," at the very least it's "creative." Simply proclaiming you don't think it's funny doesn't say it's NOT funny; it says you lack the ability to stretch a little further than you're used to to grasp a satirically obscure concept. It's not making fun of suicide, it's giving the idea of "autumn" an emotional personification, which is 100% ridiculous & FUNNY. It just takes an educated adult to see that it's not a literal joke.

[AdrienneAce]

Well said, Sarkane. Well said.

I am embarrassed to admit that I spewed coffee on the desk at the very end when the mass suicide occurred. Extremely funny.

[mcraekidd]

@Sarkane Can I vote that up 10 more times? Once doesn't seem enough..

[marshmallow661]

lol i really love this scetch

[VividCrucified]

i did not find this funny at all..

[flicfan416]

@VividCrucified They're leaves. little leaves. they don't feel

[bobokk]

coming from someone who likes mr pregnant manboobs, im not surprised

[ArcaneThingOfBeauty]

This is morbidly hilarious!

[dannycalypse]

Who voices the leaf son? Michael Palin?

[Samarachelle]

I just laughed like a CRAZY PERSON.

[usases]

Dzen

[TOM617069]

How can you say that suicide it's funny? Are you completly mad?

[PumpuptheValium]

Who said anything about suicide being funny ?

The great thing about humor is that you can take the most depressing subjects there are, and make funny observations/jokes about them without ridiculing the original subject.

Unless your sense of humor consists of making fun of people of course, in which case I'd recommend you to try and be a bit more positive.

[TOM617069]

Wait, what?

[TOM617069]

Wait, what?

[thechules]

@TOM617069 Suicide is pretty funny. If you don't agree with me you can kill yourself.

[PatMurph245]

that bit at the end - it scared me when i was young

[Floobegusted]

@PatMurph245 I can understand why, the animations on this are very grim and gothic, I used to be scared of them too when I was young.

[archangelfc]

i wanna have sex after watching this video

[LeoMidori]

The screams are fucking amazing in this. Hahaha. :D

[devacangel53]

I forgot how funny that was!!!

[AmalgamatedHorror]

This was probably my favorite scene in Meaning of Life.

[Tarafriend33]

Ah yes, an eternal classic.

[josh420masterB]

The first time I saw this, I went out and provided voices for the leaves as they fell off the tree. People were looking at me like I was crazy. HAHA!

[josh420masterB]

Damn straight man

[newton2013]

@josh420masterB Cool Story, Bro!

[Avirosb]

@newton2013 Oh please, that is SO Cliché.

[newton2013]

@Avirosb it is to be said whenever you catch someone making chit up.

[357magnum753]

WTF?!

[Lordcrazy12]

that is one long way down for leaves...

[WillScarlet16]

There's actually a chapter like this in Bambi - the original novel, not the Disney film.

[lbickfor]

Those screams are just too funny - I laughed so hard my husband heard me from across the house!

[Sunburn2007]

ROFL I peed!

[AyaIchigo]

best scene XD

[iHeartOX]

lol...if leaves could talk

[chaosmancer13]

so that's how the leaves fall off in autumn... I'd always wondered

[SforzandoFilms]

Lol it proves that no one is more insecure than an autumn leaf.

[Kruggy0]

This scene nearly made me spit my cornflakes all over my screen. AND I EVEN SAW IT COMING!!

Bless those geniuses.

[newm123]

A CLASSIC, FOR EVER!

[Jagticon]

emo leaves?...gosh the pythons were way ahead of their time

[EpicFailGirl]

Sadness and suicide are both glorified and shamed by the 'emo' label.

[squarebanana94]

u can't beat british comedy 8D

monty python

the young ones

bottom...

[Flozzx]

HA HA I think this is hilarious, I like the kid leaves aspecially the boy he sounds so weird!!!! LOL!

[croda2008]

That was the Monty python pathos

[TheJonnyDude]

i think the meaning of life is to have massive arguements with fellow youtubers

[MrCuntaminated]

britain is better than america.FACT.

[krecekvkolecku]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.­..

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..

[SternAusMetall]

I love the leaves ^^

it's so great made ^^

[capri611z]

it was really really really really sad till all the leaves fell at once lol

[mohhie]

yea this is very sad and somehow is closer to revealing the mystery of the meaning of life than the actual ending. Still its funny and makes us see things from diffrent perspective

(i'm waiting till someone calls them emo leaves, that would be pretensious enough to be totally youtube'ish)

[ButterflyBun13]

someone did call them emo leaves :>

Jagticon

[LightOokami]

hahahahahah !!

lmfao everytime I see this .... !! though it's a but sad :/

xD

[bluetardis4402]

the only part of this i find funny is all the leaves fall off at the end, the rest is sad.

[midnightsunfan]

[TetrisPilot]

[AlexKryocek]

This is probably the darkest thing Monty Python ever did. But it's still funny.

[drahoop]

ill never look at fall the same way again.

[TheInfectedOne]

OMFG.

This absolutely kills me!

I love it so much!!

HAHA.

[shabbawabby]

ROFL at the last bit, where they all fall!

[kohuded]

It's like that every winter. xP

[Kemonokami]

It's called Seasonal Affective Disorder. Even trees get it.

[YellowMagi]

THis is a fantastic way to show why the economic got screwed so hard.

[Kemonokami]

So does this mean that Cherry Blossom leaves commit Seppuku?

[theotherkind44]

I freakin LOVE this movie ....

[iluvsdejo]

hahaha the leaves kill themselves once they turn ginger... no one likes a ginger kid.

[GameMasterGuy]

[Joychanmini]

[aryllia]

[kitkatcutie520]
