9 Minutes of Actors Struggling to Keep a Straight Face!

Here are some of the moments where actors struggle to keep a straight face
(Actors Breaking Character)
Thanks, Alex for the voiceover!

[@BeauregardHall]

I'm just glad we had somebody to talk thru the entire 9 minutes to explain the comedy because that's really what comedy is: only funny if explained.

[@LoganBluth]

RIGHT?!? Thank GOD for the voiceover. I know I wouldn't have understood the comedy if I didn't have a dull, monotone voice droning over 90% of it.

[@MamaMia....]

I think it's to stay on the right side of YT's fair use policy and not get copyright claims.

[@JoE_Songs]

😂. EXACTLY. yt is FUUULLLLL of unnecessary narration over OBVIOUS, self explanatory clips... so annoying. it really became inflationary within the last few years. everybody wants a piece of that sweet YT action. And they are doing everything to get it. This way of narration represents and propels the dumbing-down of a whole generation. you can feel it.

To take funny bloopers and turn them unfunny is a talent. You to can do the same by explaining what we all can plainly see for ourselves.

@@misspolly3266 The main thing is the sheer spontaneity of the moment, in typical robin fashion it was completely improvised on the spot and the directior and other actors including Matt didnt see it coming at all. just right out of left field there they are in this serious moment with damons character laying out these heavy moments and Robin comes in with my wife farts in her sleep. and you can see it the ENTIRE cast and crew just crack up to the point that they had to edit the scene in post to quiet the laughter. poor Matts on the spot cameras rolling and doing everything in his power to keep a straight face, and failing EPICALLY so yeah the entire seen is hilarious because NO ONE sees it coming and boom Robin comedic genius he was just smacks everyone in the face with it
