Thanks for posting this!! This man cracks me up! His comedy style and delivery made him stand out, even in the show's impressive line up. Favourite bit: the bible interview with the squirrel......
I cant get over how much love this guy is gettin, even the negative comments arent exactly scathing or anythin... and its so true, hes awesome and sexy in a the ladies stuff!
"The Truth" is incidental to the function of comedy, and frequently the contrast is the tactic that makes much of comedy - funny. Eddie is a master of this tactic. Well done sir - and where's your dress?
@@trilliarobinson7862 4-23-2023 - - - - I saw him on a late night comedy show a few weeks ago. He was dressed as a girl - so - who knows what's going on?
Eddie saying she would be a hunter... Well considering the fact that early hominids hunted by running their prey to exhaustion, I think she would be good at it. She has a crazy habit of running a marathon a day for around a month at a time.
@@olgac.9636 because they cant talk. They could play dominoes, but by the time the other giraffes have worked out that it is a tiger, the tiger would have eaten them :)
To be fair an entire valley flooding would be seen as the end of the world for a pre technology society where normal people didn't really leave their local area.
doncha just *love* his smile? i really like it when he sort of laughs at his own jokes. to see how much he is enjoying himself makes it even more fun, i think. anyway, thanks for sharing.
Gee, if I'd known Britain's policemen got Eddie's comedy in 2008, I would have had a sex change, moved there and become a policeman! Brilliant!! "How can I be sure? Try it!"
hey man! yh he is doing a tour near the end of the year! the tours called "Stripped" and the tickets are on sale now! ive got mine already for the 18th November woohoo!
i read an interview from when he was doing his "stripped" tour here in the us - roughly what i remember reading was: the reason he's dressing in 'boy' clothes lately is because he hates to be put in a 'box', and people had started associating him only with transvesticism....but either way, i agree with gazz84 - "eddie is eddie no matter what he wears!"
He's such a visual comedian...I LOVE HIMM! I can't stand crap stand up comedians ie. Jimmy Carr who just fire out jokes one after the other when they are in no way related to each other =L
1:We look fantastic 2:two emotions, fear because it is a TIGER!! and suprise ...because it is a TIGER !! and there are no tigers in africa 3:F*CKING NIGHTMARE MAN
Men went hunting. Women gathered berries and plants. Which basically meant people ate A LOT of berries and plants and men bought a fish in the store and made up stories about catching it :) times haven't changed :)
GBatT you now hunting money to go supermarket and buy shit you used to make on your own and order takeaway for your lazy bum can't even cook wife, never mind being able to identify a berry beyond the packaged in plastic at the supermarket. You got to be on the clowning mode with that times haven't changed statement
According to Eddie the decision to dress like a man was influenced by the fact it was difficult to get acting jobs in the U.S. Kinda sad, but it's the truth. Being an "Executive Transvestite" would limit his options in mainstream Hollywood.
lol, "it was a nightmare man, a fucking nightmare in there, fucking stripy bastards, they ate everyone man." apparently the squirrel was a 50's jazz playing beatnik.
Having read a lot about history, this really surprised me. They tell about the evolution of the stone spears and axes, but they dont tell the simple thing. How did humans hunt buffalo when they didnt have stone tools? Well they didnt. They didnt eat much meat. They might catch a rat, or a turtle maybe. A sheep would be already too big and powerful to kill. What would you do, wrestle it down and bite with your useless human teeth? A ram? Noooooooooo WAY! And then there is this one guy who is told how its impossible to hunt a woolly mammoth, and he picks up a rock, a long branch, and tears a handful of his own hair. "Hold my handful of pond water..." People coul get maybe a kilo of meat a month, and that was really trying. After stone tools it was, you see five tons of mammoth and go "heat up the barbie, honey, I will be right back."
You can totally kill a sheep or ram barehanded, especially working as a group. You can use persistence hunting and wait for it to collapse of exhaustion (there are still tribes that do this), like so: th-cam.com/video/m-KlCjm2YQo/w-d-xo.html Alternatively, you can ambush it as a group, some distracting it in front while the rest grab its legs/knock it over, then strangle it. Also, think about the kinds of animals kids catch: lizards, snakes, frogs, crayfish, baby birds, etc. Not to mention insects and worms. Heck, I've caught a fish bare handed before and I am NOT an experienced hunter/fisher. I'm pretty sure humans were eating meat on a regular basis before the stone age, provided the definition of "meat" doesn't just refer to muscle tissue from mammals and birds the way it does in modern times.
They were just more creative, they did things like run circles around the animals until the animal got dizzy and would fall over, then they captured it with a net made from seaweed. They would also trick animals using mime, hypnotism and live reality TV.
if a giraffe saw a tiger it would experience two emotions, fear because it is a TIGER! and suprise ...because it is a TIGER !! and there are no tigers in africa" absolutley hilarious
"And this bit of material doesn't work with Lions" absolutely legendary writing.
I love how he got on, didn't know where to start. So he just went from the beginning. Brilliant!
Actually hold me over a pond. Hold me over a pond. I want to see what I look like.

THIS is what I call clever, smart comedy!
Eddie Izzard is a comedy genius and a true gent,hope he does a live tour soon!
Good to see old Eddie Izzard segments on here. Still looks great for 2008.
I love this man. Just love him. And he makes me laugh, thank you Eddie Izzard!
Eddie is just a precious, PRECIOUS man...missing him here Stateside. THANK YOU for posting this.....
Literally tears from laughing at his “it was a nightmare” parts. I’ve loved this dude since I first heard him in 2005.
"Help me! Help me! 's a fuckin' bison!" I love this man's comedy.
Thanks for posting this!! This man cracks me up! His comedy style and delivery made him stand out, even in the show's impressive line up. Favourite bit: the bible interview with the squirrel......
Bless your heart. I didn't think I'd be able to see any of this. So great to see him close up doing that material. Big thanks.
I cant get over how much love this guy is gettin, even the negative comments arent exactly scathing or anythin...
and its so true, hes awesome
and sexy in a the ladies stuff!
he's freaking amazing
'it was nightmare, man..write it down into the Bible, man' lmao he is the best
Asus, Besus, Ceesus, Deesus, Eesus, Efsus, Jesus.
GENIUS.
That's absolutely not genius.
If you think it is you're just dumb
Eddie is a genius
"Just two tigers so far.....and a leopard made it as well!" LOL
Thank you for posting this
We owe so much to Jeff...
I love it! Thanks.
Finally someone submitted this, thankyou!

He stopped doing it when it wasn't considered edgy anymore. Now it's more taboo to be a normal straight dude
Magic man he didn’t stop lol
Pretty hunky when in blokey mode, though. I believe he is now Susie/Eddie ?
@@trilliarobinson7862 4-23-2023 - - - - I saw him on a late night comedy show a few weeks ago. He was dressed as a girl - so - who knows what's going on?
@@q7winq7 As I understand it, he has said he is now in girl-mode, and identifies as Susie. However, he's also Eddie ...

“sorry, I was dead at the time” would still work
The Giraffes are playing Charades and the word is Tiger! TIE-ger! Now I get it!
Eddie is awesome for pulling of jokes like this!
Doktor Pantaleon why charades?
@@olgac.9636 because they cant talk. They could play dominoes, but by the time the other giraffes have worked out that it is a tiger, the tiger would have eaten them :)
he still rules over 20 years later
Nah. Lee Evans is much funnier

best act of the whole show..hands down
eddie is wonderful
love him especially in drag
Aw such fond memories of the Stripped show in New York! Fantabulous! Eddie , you're the mostest!
and then waited a fucking forever.. I just love that sentence :D
Brilliant! Absolutly brilliant!
doncha just *love* his smile? i really like it when he sort of laughs at his own jokes. to see how much he is enjoying himself makes it even more fun, i think. anyway, thanks for sharing.
Stone age must have been new age at the time....
proxy mannen yep..
Oh you’ve got a stone? How very modern of you, Jeffrey.
These damn hippies, walking around with their stones all the time, killing animals so efficiently!
Me too! Gonna be great!
Sooo handsome...
He is The Best !!
No one goes "uuummm" better than Eddie
"Mr. Squirrel said so."
A lot of charactors Eddie acts out are called Jeff. :P
He secretly wanted to be called Jeff as a kid and not Eddie. Though his middle name is John
Wow, Eddie killed it here
Yeah they are awesome
Gee, if I'd known Britain's policemen got Eddie's comedy in 2008, I would have had a sex change, moved there and become a policeman! Brilliant!! "How can I be sure? Try it!"
Best in the business!
hey man! yh he is doing a tour near the end of the year! the tours called "Stripped" and the tickets are on sale now! ive got mine already for the 18th November woohoo!
Yeeah...T_T He looked really good in them.....he had style, stills does, but still....T_T

"Giraffe. If you see me running, try to keep up."
Love The Izz.

A 10 on the LMAO Scale.
Scientifically approuved.
Eddie Izzard for GOD!

this is a early version of Eddie Izzard Stripped, for anyone interested.
He killed!
its the amnesty international sigh thats what the secret policemens ball is about
I love being a "Jeff" watching Eddie Izzard. I am Jeff Vader!
He is very attractive with the facial hair
He's such a visual comedian...I LOVE HIMM! I can't stand crap stand up comedians ie. Jimmy Carr who just fire out jokes one after the other when they are in no way related to each other =L
All faiths pose a greater threat. Those that believe in something are more prone to be violent than those that believe in nothing.
Yeah! That was hilarious!
This is like a speed gig. I've seen some videos where he was explaining that tie-grr part for like 7 minutes
Yes
he looks fantastic in man clothes!! absolutely gorgeous!!
Ellie Meli i know what you had in your mind when you wrote that 😉

this guy, makes religion, SO MUCH EFFING BETTER TO LISTEN TO
"Genesislover" could very well refer to the band Genesis. Cool your jets.

It was a quote
Giant Squid diary; Day One... Seem to be running out of... Ink
It's early stuff but" unrepeatable" is funny you must see it.
fckin nightmare man ... fuckin nightmare!
haha
The thing is, the laughter might not happen. He'll pontificate (perhaps on the spot) and we will be analyzing. And? ... oh that's brilliant!
I didnt recognize him at first xD
Most english speaking christian fundamentalists reside in the us, fair assumption. and I wasnt rude at all.
