It says a lot about the kind of person that Karl is, that he thinks the 3 worst things he has ever done is read someone else's mail, put putty in someone's hair, and steal some chocolate bars when he was a kid.
well he did fail to mention him keeping steve’s 50p
@@jodu626 And not telling him about the lucrative voice over work
@@jodu626yeah but he gave Steve a barrel of beer
@@the98themperoroftheholybri33 didn’t come thru on the bruce springsteen tickets tho ! 😂
@@Fabhaz - He did give Steve the message though.
Karl on the bus with everyone hocking up phlegm is an absolute TV classic.
Haha, aye, I love the bit where the wall just comes into view and when he points it out to camera the old 'chinaman-woman' just shuts the curtains 🤣
@@theliquor6423 🤣
They do that all over the place, they don't care. When I was on the great wall there was older people just spitting everywhere, over the wall, on the steps. It was horrible. But, I can forgive it in a way to be on the great wall.
I’m about to watch an idiot abroad for the 3000th time
Me 2
I have never seen it
This is the best episode I think..x
What an absolutely amazing show to react to. Many of Karl's lines in it have stuck with me for life.
I've always wanted to kick a duck up the arse
~ Karl Pilkington
Karl is without a doubt my favourite celebrity, his dynamic with Smerch and Gervais is unparalleled. After listening to XFM and the Podcasts, I'm amazed they were able to persuade him to go along on this lol.
Merchant and Gervais are a pair of arrogant pricks though
Been waiting for you to do an Idiot Abroad video for ages. Absolutely loved it. My favourite program. More of these great videos please. Hopefully you will do all the episodes across all 3 seasons.
I’ve literally just discovered your channel today , I’ve watched 4 videos in a row . I love it when Americans get the British humour, it’s dry and sarcastic, keep up the good work and enjoy it all , liked & subbed !
Karl is too lovable, you can't dislike him. He's iconic
Iconic no longer means anything.
I actually thinks he's a bit of prick.
@@eadweard.you need a new dictionary then mate
@@decrulez Not just new, but newspeak.
I loved this. Please make it your new Inbetweeners.
For some reason the fact that Karl says “get THE brick” makes it 10x funnier than if his dad would say “get A brick”
because it implies he has a special brick that he keeps for killing unwanted children lol
You’re class on your own, but when the Queen is on it’s just a little better. Great chemistry and reacts
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 the bit where you were talking about the guy puking in hospital got me. 🤣🤣🤣
It reminded me of when I was in hospital overnight after having my tonsils out. There was an old lady in the bed next to me that had some sort of gut problem. They put her commode right the other side of the curtain and I could continuously hear her filling the bowl. 🤮🤣 (while an old man with dementia further down the ward every now and again would shout ‘LOOK OUT BELOWWWWWWWWW!’)
It was an eventful night for sure. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Had me cracking up aswel
I just found your channel because I have searched for more reactions about Karl and I love it. You two are just lovely couple!! Cheers from Munich 👋🏻😆
Karl Pilkington is amazing. I understand people used to ask Ricky if he was a character he had written. Brilliant TV.
Love how Karl is sat there eating a packet of pickled onion monster munch, sensible thats what I'd be sat there eating, good old crisps.
You both absolutely brighten my day with your reactions!
I want the T-shirt. "The alright wall of China"
I lived with some Chinese people at university. They are utterly convinced that British people are bald because we drink tap water. Nothing I could say would convince them that they're wrong, and these were not stupid people. We were at one of the top universities in the world!
Too be honest, the hard water in Britain is rather sus.
Could be something to it. I lived in Asian countries where people don’t drink tap water and you very very rarely see any young bald people. I also lived in Mexico and people don’t drink tap water there, again, you don’t see many bald people apart from old men and even then it’s not many. It’d be interesting to look into statistics on that!
@@ataurusqueenofzion916 We don't have hard water everywhere, only in parts of the country. I believe there's no link between hard water and hair loss.
@@Two_Seat_Pete_FatA55 there definitely isn't something to it. This is the UK, not some 3rd world backwater, the drinking water has to meet the highest standards and is tested constantly.
@@clarkeysam don’t be so sure. There’s still all sorts of chemicals in the pipes to preserve them. That’s some old water systems! A lot of the old pipes means you can get lead in your water, and that’s highly harmful if ingested regularly. Heavy metals like lead can mess with your body’s ability to have the chemical reactions needed to absorb nutrients and heal and repair itself. They can alter hormone production, causing you to have too much of one hormone and not enough of another. That can lead to hair loss. So a lot of old water piping and the lead in it could contribute If you’re drinking it every day. Even boiling it in a kettle wouldn’t get rid of that.
Karl is the greatest British comedian of our times.
I loved every series of Idiot Abroad.
Kept on doing it.
Your question about dogs pooping, they do "the scratchy thing" due to a remnant of wolf behaviour to mark territory, they do "the spinny thing" to check for snakes and bugs which might attack them, they stare at you while pooping to check if you're looking out for other animals so they aren't caught unawares (it's also why some dogs go crazy when you lock them out the bathroom)
Thanks saved me watching a video (was one about why they look at you)
My daughter asked me about that the other day.. now I know why. Thanks, I'll tell her in the morning.
Karl Pilkington: 36:27 "It was heavily restored in both the 1950s and 1980s... I didn't knew that. Not even old bricks... am I missing something here? So the old stuff is gone, isn't it, really? But then it doesn't count --- it shouldn't be a Wonder then. You can't just build something on it and still you get all the tourists in when it's not what it says on the tin."
Also Karl Pilkington: 41:37 *looking at an original part of the Great Wall:* "Is he having a laugh? This isn't a great wall, is it? You kidding me?" 42:46 "I mean, I like the way there's no tourists and that. Well, then why would there be? *This* is the original wall, innit? Or is it? I don't know is it just badly done? This is pretty sh*t, innit? This is meant to be seen from the Moon, aren't it, the Great Wall? Would you want to? Neil Armstrong getting his binoculars out: "Okay, now have you seen it from up here, Buzz?" "Jeezus!""
There are multiple walls that are collectively know as the Great wall of China. They were built over different dynasties.
They were very effective at keeping enemies out of China. The walls were often used to funnel invasors into particular valleys were they could be attacked.
One of the biggest invasions of China was conducted by Genghis khan. The wall didn't fail then, the Chinese forces that were defending the wall were Mongolian mercenaries who swapped sides and joined Genghis khans army, that's how his army got into China.
Love this series！ and as an idiot abroad in China myself, I'm excited to see this！
Great reaction as always! Have you heard of the TV series plebs? It's a lot like The Inbetweeners but based in Roman times! Its brilliant. Just a thought for future reactions! Keep up the great work guys! From Leeds, England 💜
Great shout tbf plebs is class
The alright wall of china, lol.
Carl sums it up perfectly. 😂
Looking forward to seeing more of this. An Idiot Abroad is one of my all time fave docu-series.
You need to watch Only Fools And Horses show is class
As far as reacting to something you have seen before goes, the way I see it if you still find the bits funny or have something funny to say then I'm all for it. Its only a matter of time before reactors run out of great material to react to but I definitely draw the line at reactors watching and then tailoring reactions coz that just becomes acting. Loving the vids n looking forward to the movies (you know which ones hehe)
Nothing has made me laugh as much as finding this show and the ricky Gervais show. I was late to the party, but I used to go bed with 12 hour podcasts of karl ricky and Steve lol
Ah love! Explaining something to your loved one, meanwhile she's brushing a crumb out of your beard whilst you're talking! :)
There’s a Bear rescue park in Bulgaria, where they have rescued “Street Bears”, or “Busking Bears”, that would travel with a mussel over their heads with their owners on trains to their destinations, to beg for money,
basically the Bears are trained from when they are cubs to dance to music, by putting their front paws on hot metal plates whilst listening to music, this way they will relate the sound of the music to being in pain, automatically lifting their paws of the ground when they are older,
😔
There's a comedy show here where a street cleaner claims to have had the same broom for decades. Only changed the head 14 times and handle 18 times.
That's the Great Wall of China
Don't Trigga them
The most anticipated series. Very much looking forward to watching these reactions!❤
Dear friends....i would highly recommend reading Marco Polo's account of his journey to China in the 13th century. In that book/journal, there's loads of information about the history of China (which was known as Kataj back then!). Marco Polo's account of his many adventures in Kataj is called "The Book of Wonders".
Holy shiit yes
I hoped you'd be reacting
To this...awesome
😂✌🏻🇬🇧
You will also want to watch Karl Pilkington's "Moaning of Life"
I don't think you should call us Boomerites - I think you should call us Boomerangs ... because we keep coming back!
That hospital story had me rolling
If that unrestored part looks like that after 3000 years that’s still pretty impressive
That puke story you told sbout was hilarious 😂
I didn't know what you could react to after The Inbetweeners... So glad you're reacting to Idiot Abroad! 😂🏴
28:13 I was dying at the old man picking his nose and inspecting it
Oh this should be great! A reaction by us to your reaction to her reaction. Intricate fun! :D
Great puke story, thanks for 'sharing'
Yup, this was Brilliant, thank you K&Q!
karl is soo funny and natural lol do some more of these plz
The only bloke to make my dad laugh hysterically
We're upset you're not British we must protect the king and queen at all costs
@11:10 He wouldn't be like that, if he was American. That's why everything that Ricky Gervais made, was not understood by a lot of Americans. The Office for example.
The toilet he used is absolute luxury compared with some I had to use there! I didn't think I would ever feel clean again.
One of the craziest things is that Suzanne is a TV director who actually directed the UK's biggest Saturday soccer show 'Match of the Day'. God know how they communicate LOL
I really just want to say, about the fortune teller stuff. It blew my mind in downtown Vancouver that there were women on their lunch break going to have their fortune told / palms read.... it was really strange to see in a square in daylight. Mainly women I have to add.
Point blank range and he curves it around the glass 😂😂😂 that’s something special, im proud to be from uk when I see him
It's a bit of a shame that Sky edited this in a way that made that Chinese couple look stupid. They actually were saying Shakespeare in Chinese in order to explain to Karl how they say non-Chinese words in their language, he wasn't make fun of them
I don't anyone thought they were stupid, just that there was a language barrier
@@mathewluby9896 I can speak Chinese, they most certainly cut this to look worse than it is. Like I said, they were explaining how Chinese to English works (words that didn’t exist when the Chinese language was established) by using Shakespeare as an example. They removed that context and just cut it to look like Karl was making fun of them
Yes..buzzing for this
Karl's right about creating the iphone. They need to invent toilet roll and put doors on cubicles and install loo's
HAHAHHAHAH! ITS 01.23 here and its a good job i'm here alone , my neighbours say they never hear any noise from my cottage , it's 15th century so the walls are about 1 foot thick! i am crying with laughter !
I started crying before he'd even said the baby's choking line cos I remembered it coming up! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hi King Boomber! I usually hate reaction videos but love your channel, it's like watching stuff with your best friend!
Please please take a look at 90's british sitcom 'Bottom', especially the 'Gas' episode! :) It stars the late Rik Mayall (Drop Dead Fred) and Adrian Edmonson.
I’ve always said I was going to get round to watching an idiot abroad, but never got round to it. But it seems a good watch . But everything is more watchable with you two watching along aswell
When’s the inbetweeners movie reaction coming?
@@raulperez8648 so its only on the 'cinematic boomerites'?
@@BigMashy they said it would be heavily edited and put on youtube to avoid copyright
@@raulperez8648 geez is it worth it ?
Love Karl, he used to live about 15 mins away from me back in the day.
A bit late to the party here. But the part where the lady was spitting in the bag reminded about my friend that visited China. He said one thing that stood out to him was the amount of spit everywhere, people would be spitting on the floor every 5 mins, within spraying distance of other people. He was told it's because Chinese people believe it's bad luck or bad Chi to swallow spit.
Our national treasure ❤️🤣
The shape of the picture makes Karl's head look even more round 😂
The great wall of China definitely worked. People don't really understand what the great wall of Chine is for. It's not for making it impossible to get past, I mean it's not like Trump's wall on Mexican border. 😀Also it's not one continuos wall, it has many segments.
Emperor of China had a huge army at his disposal, but it took a long time to assemble and move, so the Great wall functions as a incredibly large system of watchtowers that tell you where the enemy is coming from, how large is the opposing force as well as slowing the opposing army down to give you a chance to meet the threat with your own army.
When I seen Karl trying to learn Kung Fu, it reminded me of Jessie Jane McParland, (also known as JJ Golden Dragon), from Britain’s Got Talent:-
Jesse-Jane McParland shot to fame as a finalist in Britain’s Got Talent 2015.
After narrowly missing out on a place in the finals, JJ was brought back as a favourite by public vote.
The then nine year old wowed judges and audiences alike with her thrilling performances, which combine sword work with kickboxing, kung fu and Tae Kwon Do.
After her first performance on the show she received a standing ovation from all four judges, with Simon Cowell joking that he wanted the pint-sized phenomenon as his next bodyguard.
Jesse-Jane currently holds over 300 martial arts titles and is 21 times World Champion and 12 times European Champion.
Other titles include 9 times Double WAKO World Champion, 6 times WKC World Champion, WKC Youngest Female World Champion, 3 times WOMMA World Champion.
Since BGT, JJ has gone on to do numerous projects globally - performing on the Ellen De Generes show, taking part in a UFC campaign with Ronda Rousey, reaching the finals of Superkids and most recently having a high action cameo role in Season 2 of Into The Badlands.
In 2015 she was part of the legendary TH-cam Rewind as one of that year’s most watched virally with almost every video posted receiving hundreds of millions of views and retweeted by the likes of Hillary Clinton and Nicole Scherzinger!
She also appeared alongside Don ‘The Dragon’ Wilson, Cynthia Rothrock and Jansen Panettiere as a specially trained Space Coast Dojo Student in ‘The Martial Arts Kid’ released in the US in 2016 and in 2017 had a CBBC documentary made about her titled ‘My Life.’
JJ’s motto is Not Every Girl Wants To Be A Princess….
Her biggest inspiration is Jackie Chan
(She is well worth doing a reaction video to, if you’re into any kind of Martial Arts),
😇
🐉🥋⚔️
Okayyy!?! Weirdo.
This was epic Karl always makes me laugh
I think yes, do more Idiot abroad. Such a good show!! 👍
You would be great as a metal vocalist, keep practising those throwing up sounds my guy haha
That was brilliant! More plz
Did you spot Karl's government minder?
The guy eating the embryo egg is suddenly also at the great wall. =)
If you have a wooden ship and over the years everything has been replaced, is it still the original ship? :D
Stick with these 3 series and your in for a good laugh. Best bit about Karl is he doesn't discriminate, everyone is treated equally 🤣🤣🤣
Karl spins around with a verbal machine gun, popping everyone and everything.
Animals in the wild will generally hide, if they can, when they go to the toilet as they are vulnerable to attack.
The king and Queen.
Love this love use guys ❤️
This is what we’ve all been waiting for haha yea
You're both gonna LOVE this series 🤣🤣🤣
King Boomer you are thinking of Hadrian wall in England when talking about two walls
I thought there was another one that was never finished further to the north.
@@KingBoomer the antoine was built further north from hadrians wall
You gotta watch Life's Too Short
Definitely will be the best reaction series if all seasons get watched
33:26 RIP eardrums
Had all sorts of traditional Chinese massage.Sent my mum a picture of my back after one and she said it looked like I had been jumped by a gang haha. Foot massage is great they do your whole body and it's good. The cupping is weird where they put the suction cups on your back. Also had one on my feet where they put fire into a cup and stick it on your feet. But general Chinese massage is not relaxing at the time but the next day you feel fantastic.
13:00 Those ruddy Welsh - taken all the LL's so there's none left over for the Chinese 😒
Just subscribed to patreon cant wait for movie reactions 🤙
The best part of China to go if you want mod cons n stuff is Hong Kong. Since it was under British rule till the mid 90’s it’s got most home comforts you’d expect as a westerner
Fact: A Mars bar in the UK is a Milky Way in the USA. A Milky Way in the UK is a Three Musketeers bar in the USA
Erm Inbetweeners movies still happening??
Sounds like he was coughing up a lung 🤣 33:25 34:44
have a DVD box set of all three series
we love the way his mind DOESNT work
There’s literally nothing the Chinese won’t eat but each to their own.
Ive been waiting for this, next step from inbetweeners😂
Just come from watching your inbetweeners movie reaction on Patreon. I urge anyone to go and become a member. Great reaction, well worth the membership 😁
Don't think Americans can talk too much about the lack of toilet doors in China. America's not a lot better- the gaps around any doors to the stalls are so big might you've only got half a door.
The gaps are huge - but one thing America does well in public toilets is those flushable paper toilet seats.. they should be more widespread
Inbetweeners movie?
Would love to see King and Queen Boomer react to ‘The Moaning of Life’ with Karl Pilkington at some point after they have finished with ‘An Idiot Abroad’!
The Ricky Gervais Show as well.
I once had a Chinese massage. I just remember the old lady cackling like crazy, while I was in tears 😂😆
Gotta love Karl. National treasure
Now we are talking, alerts on
Took my mrs to a fancy French restaurant the other night. Very expensive.
The lady on the next table to me had a combo of Chicken Breasts and frogs legs, but she had a fantastic personality.....
