The Boom Danube

Uploaded by M3n747 on Aug 7, 2007
A sketch from the 26th episode of Monty Python's Flying Circus - the exploding version of "The Blue Danube". The orchestra didn't event try not to be seen, and so now it is an ex-orchestra. The orchestra is no more. It is a late orchestra. The orchestra is pushing up the daisies. The orchestra has gone to meet its maker.
And now for something completely different.

I wish this had been introduced by John the Baptist's impersonation of Graham Hill's crash at Watkins Glen.

Awesome! Better than 2001! in a way.

@Jackarunda well they are british
-
it kinda disgusts me how the audience gets so quickly bored with the explosions. By the 5th one, nobody's laughing. I think it's hilarious all the way through

For those who, like me, didn't know the background:
1. The Blue Danube is the common English title of An der schönen blauen Donau op. 314 (On the Beautiful Blue Danube), a waltz by Johann Strauss II, composed in 1866.
2. Blue Danube was the first operational British nuclear weapon. The warhead was proof-tested in Maralinga, Australia, by a team of Australian, British and Canadian scientists in late 1956.
