[mistermayonaise]

[eamroo71191]

I think this was the best YouTube video I have ever seen

[thencaesarfalls]

Do you guys get arrested often?

[DarkComputerGirl]

They must have alot of money.

They'd need all that cash for bail money

[DDenDong16]

@DarkComputerGirl Bail money? They got slapped with a max $20 fine :P

[SolidOne40]

Lmao that's why no one fucks with the Irish people. "Fuck you Bono, ya burned the Irish flag. Cocksucker!"

[SuperPeanutify]

Should've gone to Specsavers

[birdland1]

You all need to go to Spec Savers and get a pair of Glasses! Blind leading the Blind etc etc!

[tonidilux]

wow getting arrested for playing music? no wander cops have such a crap rep

[BytheseaMrTodd]

LOL at the Irish guy!!

Also cops were dicks.

[azuboy98]

3:50 Jesse Einsberg?

[SweetD1ckWillie]

FARK YOU BONO,BURN A FLAG YOU FARCKIN ARSEHOLE!! Wait, whats up?FARKIN BONO THERE...HE'S A FLAG BURNER, FARKIN ARESHOLE! FARK YOU BONO! HE BURNED THE IRISH FLAG, THAT CORKSUCKER!! LMMFAO!!!

[zungaloca]

why not put the sound of a live concert

[za1pp]

That dude looks and sounds nothing like bono lmao

[M4hB]

You know your music sucks when humourists can pretend to be you and mannage to deceive your fans.

[nelsoncarmo26]

this fucking sux.

[HitfulVids]

Lucky the cops got them out of there before that Irish guy could blow up the building!

[StarVoyager9]

,,,LOL...The guy with the binoculars watching from his apartment, must've been thinking, "those dumb bone heads on the street have no idea those guys aren't f'ng U2"

[Heiryz]

B U L L S H I T

[Blankname101]

LOve it!!Great Social proofing and conformity amazing!

[SevenFiveSevenCrazy]

3:11 .... says the illegal Irish immigrant

[TheCats0907]

wankers but they had a go lol

[sumosumo84]

R.I.P. 6:38

[MrBarisyesil]

even better than the badass!



[Cypress77]

3:10 Fuck you Bono.

[TheMonkeyboy35]

amazing

[GDOBSSOR]

Po-lice these days... No sense of humour.

[ScorpiaX]

Just clear it with the cops first. (although theres no harm)...usually they do a behavioral analysis or have some suspicion just because theres a large group of people at any place (beach, top of building, w/e)..

[TheThebenson]

too funny!!!!!

[megothier]

what was up with the Irishman flipping them off? That was pretty funny

[amberleann12345]

It would've been really amusing if Real U2 also did a rooftop show...at the same time!

The chaos would have been most excellent >:)

[sky313sky]

im gald cop shut it down thats really dangerous, with that many ppl and you guys know how u2 fans are lol

[mrleg15]

@sky313sky go eat glass



[sky313sky]

they need there asses beat!!!

[Caitster19]

hehehehe

[TheJunkie100]

Hilarious how that crowd all got caught up in it. The power of suggestion can be very strong. I wonder what the real Bono thought of it. I imagine they had to get his permission to do that.  I hope they got "UN-arrested in the end. They are trying to make people laugh, providing some levity during a very bleak time in our country!! I appreciate their efforts. I think they are wonderful and I would love to be in one of those groups!! Karen S. Port Charlotte, Fl

[Blankname101]

@TheJunkie100 Mainly Social proofing and conformity,but yeah it's amazing.

[Xemprul]

so there's 76 people who stop by and really think they're sing along with bono at that time.

[thedearmimo]

They were catched by the cops for entertaining people......

What a shit sistem.......

[SWEntropia]

This band is not U2, its U2B

[buraburayoshi]

They got arrested...crazy! wow ImprovEverywhere really goes all out when they do something!

[hijodepuuu]

stupid cops

[RIKKITIKITIKITAVI]

WHY DIDN'T THEY JUST LIP SYNC IT AND PLAY THE REAL SONG? ALSO GET PEOPLE THAT LOOK MORE LIKE U2?!

[MrAnarchojoe]

To be fair, if you were standing on the street surrounded by people shouting "U2!!! OMG BONO AND EDGE!!!", mixed with the sounds of cars, the sound would be so drowned out that you probably would believe that they're U2.

[zimmyzimgir2]

"Fook borno he fookin burn dee irish flag dat coaksooker!"

[kosmers]

@zimmyzimgir2 lmfao, thats funny, i love the accent

[Xxawes0mexX]

how long till u got out of jail like 10 seconds

[Stephanie080162]

Have they charged?

[iGiggleify]

Yay for the mad Irish Man!

[SykoTheStalker]

Agent kula should have been the edge :D

[test123ok]

that officer in the end reminded me of Officer Barbrady "Nothing to see here people"

[Konorai]

I loved when the officer finally let everyone know that it wasn't U2. I wish I could have seen their reactions~

[Impsterettes]

I was looking for the bit where that old guy went off on a tirade about bono

[xxAmAzEsxx]

@Impsterettes 3:10



[SonsoftheProphets]

5:55 talk about improv, I thought that was Jamie Kennedy for a second

[BHGiant3]

@Diispaceyone its all about image, not about talent

[TheMisterKibe]

I have no life so I stop everytime to see anything on the streets.

[BabyLioness]

hm. to be honest more more impressed byt the long reading on the site(even with me half dead needing ta sleep =.=)--with all the different povs!! than this vid. but with the rain, the cops and the noise i suppose can't be helped. still, this made it all kinda blantantly obvious. about as subtle as a baboon's--anyways, props for actually even doing the idea X). but then..comedians..*shrugs*

[monthtrial]

FAKE!!! THIS IS NOT THE REAL YOU TOO! FAST FORWARD TO THE LAST TWO SECONDS OF THE VIDEO IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME.

DO NOT BE FOOLED... THIS IS A FAKE, WANNABE BAND. TRUST ME!

[CaligirlSofia]

@monthtrial your retard everyone knows, this is improv everywhere they are only tricking ppl

[CarthageTheBrony]

@monthtrial Are you a fucking moron? EVERYONE KNOWS THIS IS FAKE.

Fucking idiot.

[InuyashanKag]

@monthtrial yea...

no shit sherlock, it's called improveverywhere

now go away troll, before I bring out the butterflies!

[Penguin1eggs]

@monthtrial LOL.



[Ransomed09]

@monthtrial Bahahahahahaha!!!! XD Obviously. Their name is IMPROV everywhere. XD

[ijchael]

@monthtrial no shit sherlock!

[maraseea]

@monthtrial You are officially an idiot... did you not watch the begining of the video????? ffs get some brain cells before you try and act clever!

[roadlimoster]

a real treat for fans also u2 should sue for liable!

[anonymous133711]

ear rapist



[Sc0ttPrian]

THIS IS HORRIBLE LOL I LOVE IT!

[oscar2099]

what tha fuck is that???????? shit? or something worse????

[TruMalu4Life]

3:02 was madd random

[josecho86]

WTF??!! they are just singing!!!

they are no terrorist!!

[latexadib]

This is fucking hillarious!

[DavnyB]

He he, drunk guy at 4:02

[joefloydwonka]

Hey, does anybody knows the name of the first song that they played?

[ggguzman]

@joefloydwonka vertigo

[passiveMenis]

Hilarious seeing everyone faking excitement

[kingofwii]

was it the real police that arrested them??

[dunespeak]

@kingofwii I believe so, I think there's a law against impersonating a police officer... Nyeh, I think that means like using the power of the police to do stuff, such as moving along a crowd of people?

[akarene]

brilliant.

[MissionMetallica]

5:29 just like GTA rofl

[Thelittlecutie]

I must say.. the cameraman sound hot.. ^^

[conkt]

Wtf? Why the hell were they arrested?

[dunespeak]

@conkt XD I was wondering when they WOULD get arrested. While that's so awesome, they were drawing a crowd. Usually to do concerts, you gotta plan and stuff. Not that I'd know, I'm just sayin' a large group cheering in the middle of a street without it being blocked off and cleared with the city is probably one of those endangerment issues. But it's pretty innocent.

[Volcanic9]

his legs aren't nearly stocky enough

[AwesomenessVidStudio]

lol fuck you Bono

[koseitekifilms]

Lmao the angry Irish guy was hilarious.

[Franciscos267]

Haha

[flowiepanda]

my favorite was the indian guy waving his arms up in the air

[coolkim963]

aww the officer at the end "That's not U2 you've been fooled!" he ruined the fun! he needs more humor, silly billy :P

[godzillaboy1993]

oh my god! I remember hearing about this a while back ago.

[iSOBigD]

Yeah the singer's awful, what the hell.  It ruined the whole joke the second he opened his mouth.

[xXxZODIACxXx]

@iSOBigD I thought it made it more funny

[joellouisfire]

"That’s not U2, you’ve been fooled!"

[Inumaru12]

I really wish we could see what U2's reaction was to this.

[jamesjiao]

You guys honestly should've invited someone who can remotely sing.... this guy.. is worse than the likes of me. That's how bad he is.

[Anthraxb0mb]

@jamesjiao I was wondering why they didn't get someone who could sing too.

[dunespeak]

@Anthraxb0mb Yeah, like have them singing where the crowd can't see them.. or do a recording before going up... Because other people were watching from higher grounds.

[Detrice3000]

its even funnier knowing that he sucked at singing but people were still believing they were a real Band.....lmao......I guess its true anyone can be famous lol a t least for a day =)

[92Fishman92]

"Nothing to see here people. You've been fooled"

LOOOOOOOOOOL

[smacl61]

Wow - its really out of tune, loads of feedback, intonation, bad rhythm. Its great!

[imnotdiddy]

umm why would Bono burn the Irish flag when he`s Irish himself FFS!!

[shadowtime23]

Officer - "Okay people, clear the sidewalk, blah blah, thank you very much!"

Guy - "You're welcome!"

My hero. :)

[ItsLeslieBxtch]

So, did they ever tell the people it was all a joke?

[jaxratch]

@ItsLeslieBxtch Nope. The thing about Improv Everywhere is that they NEVER break character, not even after the prank's over. They never personally said anything to anyone about being in the U2 concert so as not to ruin anyone's memory of the "concert." Of course, the police that arrested them found out pretty quick, but... yeah. None of the fans knew a thing unless they recognized them as impostors on the spot.

[ItsLeslieBxtch]

@jaxratch Woah, That is so epic! Lol. I wihI could join one of these.. Thanks (:

[AkitoHayato]

At 2:00 The guys are looking sooo amazed xD

[Venorize]

The cop saying "Nothing to see here" .... F U ! - You are the REASON there is nothign to see here you stupid pig cop

[TheLyricalConcept]

Is it just me? or is the guy with his daughter at 5:39 also in the subway yearbook photo shoot video??

[hl2tdm]

@TheLyricalConcept Just you.

[CheshireShade]

amazing what one can do through impersonation. =p

Just the lasting effect of what the people in the street actually thoughts happened is real enough for those people. =)

[8ballsix27]

I'm conviced that if you tell some people that you're a famous band, they'll believe you.

[Scorp969]

lmfao he sucks at singing and no one noticed it was a fake group xD

[bluntndrink86]

@Scorp969 like,... really sucked

[omfgwtf666obamahater]

@Scorp969 Terrible camera microphonesmaybe. *facepalms*

[Chirimorin1]

@Scorp969 you know that most of the people down there are undercover agents, right? The rest is probably just like "wtf is happening?"

[RijiiRizu]

Oh God, that guy wasn't even remotely talented in the singing department.

[omonaija4life]

@RijiiRizu agreed

[bunbunmaracas]

malisimo!!!!!

[HegleEvan]

bono is irish.....did he burn the irish flag?

[pary16]

please get a tv show xDDDDDDDDd

[riopieboy]

3:15 Have to wonder if that guy has ever been to ireland

[Diispaceyone]

Lol they didn't even sound remotely close to U2.

[penitent2401]

@Diispaceyone few live performances sounds like their CDs. alot of them just lipsync and play their CD or pre-recorded version over the speakers

[benZZZgomeZZZ]

hm, i dun get why this would be good. but heck, that's 3 years ago, so meh

[ocbountyhunter]

LOL at 5:11 the reaction the the white man lol

[DeidaraRocks88]

@ocbountyhunter did you mean 3:11?

[sipsey44]

dude, bono's voice is awful without studio enhancement

[abdemo]

His plays so bad, but that is the idea, they wont care play like the original, just is a experimento.

Shame police procedures, so fascist.

[BROOKYhahaha]

THEY SING FUCKING BAD.

[DanielDFizzle]

priceless 2:06

[Goodyearmonkey]

@AirCalv that singing was beyond terrible

[kevykevkev]

bono is a cunt like

[Luxornv]

This would be a lot better if the guys playing were actually halfway decent. I'd say this is an overall fail.

[gamerfreek117]

@Luxornv just the singing was, the other guys were pretty good though

[afsd180]

ah man this is fucking brilliant.

[sgtboy709]

3:02 saddens me if thats a real homeless man.....he thought he would finaly get to see something cool in his life, but then fooled....

[MrMoka369]

ur supposed to hide on the roof and when the cops are half way down the stairs start singing all u need is love, gosh

[roysters01]

id say U2 are shitting themselves.

[FastRunner1994]

What A fucking scene! :)

[TracieTrillion]

I wonder how U2 reacted to this! :D

[Bluebell101774]

haha they actually got arrested?

[RonLarhz]

what happened to the agents?were they ok?

[MegaMad3000]

This video is Even Funnier Than The Real Thing!!!

[chris1978nl]

the real thing is better, but this is funnier then the real thing.

great upload.  lmao

[donnajos]

why was that guy so ticked at bono???

[Pmm368]

@donnajos That guy was ticked at Bono because Bono is Italian and moved to America. From what I heard, Bono did something dishonorable to the Italians or something by moving to America.

[BuddhaChu]

@Pmm368 Bono, the pedestrian, and the flag are all Irish, not Italian.

[Pmm368]

@BuddhaChu Alright, thanks for correcting me. I thought Bono was Italian.

[plutoniumx99]

@donnajos because...like he said...he burned the irish flag apparently...so he's a flag burning asshole.

[grimess66]

Did you guys get charged!? O_O

[Sparkz49]

This was hilarious, but the Beatles did it for real.

[astalivista121]

Fuck you Bono !!! epic

[myRincon]

this is horrible, why do a close up on that poor kid who is clearly disabled, well done you for fooling him.

[fuunguus]

@myRincon

NO! Please don't be so sensitive! I'm sure they had no bad intentions with it. And just in case you didn't know, this isn't some prank thing, it is improv everywhere!

[NikeSBJack]

"fuck you barno" :D

[Nimbushurl]

His voice sucks. Like a cock sucker. Hell yeah Irish dude!

[DjDeMaxXx]

That guy at 2:05 is like YEAH!!!!! Who the fuck is bono? :p

[drumlline123]

that guy at 1:41 is like wow dude im so hurt and im watchin U2

[zekden]

need real bono sounding dude but this is awsome

[FalconWolfe]

If only it sounded like Bono, but the music was just as good

[roysters01]

@Rcee01 , you defo are no U2 fan,Bono never burned any tri-colour.....he ripped it into its 3 colours and waved the white piece in the middle to symbolise pease.

[1iluvgod]

HAHAHAHA they should make one with people everywhere just arguing!

[holyswordsmanoffaith]

LOL Fuck you Bono! ....win

[ThrowingItAway]

they need a better singing then they can fool everyone

[asdasasefasd]

those damn cops ruin everything.......... hmmmm that could be a song =D

[burnwood]

Should have used playback..
