Captain Lou Albano Takes a Lie Detector Test

[@craigreeves5465]

I'm almost certain this was a worked shoot.

[@guardiane]

4:31 - this scene is forever imprinted in my brain as being the most sincere, realistic, authentic piece of acting that I've ever seen in my entire life. That knuckle bite at the end seals it.

[@MorganGCook]

Wrestling was truly in his heart! God Bless Captain Lou Albano!

[@ss4kronos33]

love this man. he is the real king....not ash, not elvis....CAPT LOU is THE KING OF KINGS,LEGEND OF LEGENDS, MARIO OF MARIOS.....MANAGER OF ALL MANAGERS OFTEN IMITATED,NEVER DUPILCATED.......NEVER FORGOTTEN.....10-14-2009 HAIL TO THE REAL KING

[@chicopeebles3706]

Captain Lou, kayfabe until the end. A true legend.

[@Knowyerfacts]

Captain Lou ... Thank you for bringing smiles to my childhood!

[@Rodhellioz]

Scott Corona super Mario super show :)

[@poopok9387]

remember if you do drugs you go to hell before you die

[@cptlorkel1556]

Actually, there is a chance that he wasn't lying because polygraph tests HAVE been proven to make mistakes.

[@Gamebox27]

The kayfabe is strong in this one.

[@Beelzebubba2823]

Lmao

[@rcjr68]

cap lou 1 of the best , r.i.p. wrestling never and wont ever be the same or as good without u

[@maxpuppy96]

Nobody could sell like the Captain.

[@hugh2hoob668]

he shouldve just yelled *"Bitch Im Super Mario!"* lol

[@peepsg]

Audience: oh right… LET DO THE MARIO!!!!

[@MrNYCman530]

"The machine is a downright liar!" LOL

[@bicpapermate]

I love how when he is asked for the first time if wrestling is fixed, he nods his head yes, while he says "no".

[@mygirlpiper]

bic papermate Captain Lou remained in character and sold his " absurdity" knowing full well that the viewers understood his stagecraft inside and outside the ring and that point is to " Entertain" and make people laugh - Captain Lou " The Guiding Light" OR as Gorilla Monsoon called The Captain " The Fountain Of Misinformation" Either way that was funny " The Machine Is A Liar."

[@Oliver154678]

bic papermate Yea, you didnt even need that machine to caught him. :)

[@davidhunt9853]

Ask David Schulz that question Marsha clark

[@thetreblerebel]

Ha!! Nice one

[@FOOLIOSTEEZY]

😂😂😂

[@Oliver154678]

His outburst in the end is just an act as well. He doesn't look upset for real.

[@Death2Bigots]

"Even his reaction to the test is larger than life" - Because he's acting??? Because you guys -paid- him to act pissed off and psychotic?

[@dansmead4100]

Often imitated never duplicated the captain tells the truth that machine is a liar. The captain managed 15 tag team champions. Created Cyndi Lauper. And was once quoted as saying ' hulk Hogan is 6 ft 9. Cut his head off and he would be 4 ft 6 ' a true pioneer an expert in his field. RIP captain lou. Thanks for the memories 1

[@MFSINPSA]

He was one of the greatest!!!!

[@Danimal77]

He's smart. He says that any of the men that beat him COULD beat him at any time. In other words, even though they were TOLD to beat him, they physically could have beat him for REAL if they wanted to...haha.

[@tek512]

Man. Even after all those years, Captain Lou hadn't lost his touch. He could still ham it right up on demand.

[@solidsnake2085]

I remember watching this when is aired for the first time lol

[@josemontano7767]

Im so happy I grow up in the 80s It’s was real to me damn it!

[@DTA707]

Nice to see Marsha Clarke went on to more important things after the OJ case

[@andrewpotok2661]

That's a good one

[@CollectingCardboard]

He was "one of a kind"; *Captain Lou Albano* !!!

[@TheJames-Edward]

He was crazy like that in real life, look up the Larry Zbysko interview where he talks about him.

[@wadepreston5781]

I met him in real life. You could tell he was tough as nails but he had a heart of gold too.

[@hugh2hoob668]

@@wadepreston5781 Jeff Jarret was cool af too

[@MadMetalhead]

Omg I remember this as a kid. It was one of the first times I'd ever seen captain lou.

[@sylviovargas8626]

God bless the captain such a funny guy who always made me laugh. This itself was stagged and never hurt his legacy

[@ajdavide2910]

I rememeber this show. Knew he was gonna fail but still awesome to see him

[@rick.d]

Beautiful.

[@_captain_N]

lie detectors are bullshit if you ask me, I think it's the person using the machine who makes it say they are lying, captain Lou Albano was a great man and will be missed and always be remembered for his entertainment not only in the ring but also as Mario in the super Mario bros super show.

[@andrewhansen1522]

Loved that cartoon

[@masontorres1852]

"Often imitated never duplicated" Captain Lou Albano (1933 - 2009)

[@maredes]

lmao RIP Lou

[@damightybenstein]

I'm waiting for Brian Zane to review this.

[@femscoutf2]

I wished I met Captain Lou Albano he was a very nice man but I think I will soon in the Heavens rest in peace Captain Lou Albano (1933-2009) 🙏🏻❤️

[@hezekiahramirez6965]

This is so funny. They're acting like everyone hadn't known for decades at this point. At one time they did pretend it was a real sport with real results. This is true. But in 1998 it had been acknowledged many times. Come on now.

[@Eagle1349]

Very true Hez, I was a cop back in the 80's when the fans thought this stuff was real. We had to escort the wrestlers to the ring and their cars. It was serious work in those days. Often the fans would attempt to attack the bad guys. We had a great time back in those days.

[@hisroyalhighness8566]

Fuck you, it's real to me!!!!

[@Swinship]

HEY PIZANOS!!!

[@thegamingrailfan7905]

"It's-a-me Mario"

[@sohair10]

Woohoo WWF logo!

[@alexander101207]

LMAO. God bless you Captain Lou!

[@wallypalmer4704]

Kayfabe till the end. Captain Lou was the man!

[@cBearTV-]

Captain Lou... Always a good sport 👍🤣

[@TheBullshit2011]

😂😂😂😂 gotta love captain Lou

[@Darule514]

Captain Lou remained in character when he freaked out about the results 😂

[@michaelanderson9897]

Did you really need a polygraph for that!!😂

[@jakester902]

i like capitan lou alebano and capitan beefheart

[@teflonmagnet]

noobcesar what about captain abalone and the captain and Tenille?

[@mana_beast_beats1114]

Level Of Violence??? Oh god.... Captain Lou isn't just Mario, he's Flowey too!

[@MrAdrenaline1982]

They should've gotten the legendary Ed Torian to do this test on Lou.

[@nocturnalrecluse1216]

I remember this interview like I remember the color of my skin. Flaxen as the sun.

[@joncam7576]

Lmfao. He was. Hysterical

[@bystandah9626]

Gotta admire Albano, an absolute keeper of kayfabe if nothing else.

[@RAZVIELRAMOS]

You know a polygraph test is easy to beat right

[@xehP]

he nodded then said "no" big oof

[@mackdog832]

Lmfao! This is great!

[@thegamingrailfan7905]

Made me think about Mario from Nintendo taking a lie detector test

[@WildBillCox13]

Captain Lou . . . gigging his face with a pocket knife at MSG . . . so drunk he forgot to take it with him, left it lying in the middle of the ring.

[@AB-ce5fg]

Those stupid tests would never hold up in court!!

[@OJ_SimpiN]

Lo g off

[@alfrede.neumann5513]

How pleased they were with themselves. Pathetic. Just pathetic. What a victory!

[@MrNYCman530]

The best way to answer is "It's not fake, it's scripted. These guys take bumps and sustain injuries." Of course the winners are pre-determined, though.

[@switchbuckle5th]

She can't call him a liar on national television! Polygraph are inadmissible as evidence in a court of law! He should have sued for defamation! The whole show! The network even!

[@dildonius]

It’s a joke, dumbass. He’s playing a character. This is a bit.

[@Coldsummer91]

He is right. People do get concussions from playing football.

[@henryjetplane9067]

I didn’t know Marcia Clark had a tv show

[@kaidosbuddyagaindoberman9119]

LOL “not fixed”. Even to his end he was full of bullshiat, but what a great bullshiater he was. God bless ya captain Lou

[@kevthegoat8774]

What a carnie

[@Sahasrahla.]

I feel bad because everybody else here is all knowledgeable about the history of wrestling and stuff, and here I am just watching to see what the guy who played Mario was up to after the show went off the air and I turned 8.

[@general5886]

Kayfabe at its finest

[@fett38]

Don't feel bad, I'm doing the same thing. One thing is for sure though, this guy is fucking entertaining. DO THE MARIO

[@MrManmountainrock]

rofl if this proves anything it is that the captain is a true legend

[@_1ben]

Dam Marsha, why didn't you just hook up O.J to your machine?

[@daplaya2559]

Lol this guy acted so crazy back in the day

[@michaelallanrubin2376]

Ask Larry zybysko wasn't acting

[@tomjones5650]

My favorite Albanoism' Yes it's true I used to be Italian. My name is Albano, but I took the the last two letters of my last name and told the Italians N-O.!!!! And when Piper called him Lou Albino.

[@briancrowley6413]

get the man an adult diaper

[@jpjonesh6247]

This is so ridiculous, especially the pole admin

[@Death2Bigots]

Aww shit, I remember this episode... and I still had no idea "that was the dude who played Mario in that show I watched when I was 6." To me he seemed more like some crazy Charles Manson-ey dude...

[@nk56950]

LMAO this is hilarious!

[@Beelzebubba2823]

They shoulda asked Vader to do a polygraph test about if wrestling is fake. Lmao

[@allen2441]

Just funny ! : )

[@BelatedAudio]

Don’t do drugs or you’ll go to hell before you die

[@jeffcranford5403]

These wrestlers today really need a manager. Just like back in the 80s. Does anyone remember the appearance of mouth of the south Jimmy Hart? I'm thinking it was this year. I believe he was supposed to manage a tag team? But it never happened.

[@Sldumas1983]

Omg the 90s lol was so cheap but miss cap

[@fredfredburgerwar52]

captin lou is right wwe is not fake only a bit is but this was in the 19s so it would be wrong

[@youremybiggestfan]

It's Real To Me Dammit!

[@brianjohnson8834]

Loved it .took took it as pure entertainment.love for lou.😁

[@VlKES724]

yea

[@streetsofsouthphilly]

I really hope this is just a work, because then it's funny. If it isn't, then it's kind of sad to see a legend like Lou Albano defending kayfabe in 1998.

[@Beelzebubba2823]

I remember seeing this back in 1998. I thought it was funny when they gave hime the results that he lied. Lmao

[@briancrowley6413]

this is a work

[@michaelallanrubin2376]

That wasn't a work and fuck Marcia clark

[@Falkowski82]

The lady really cute

[@sammydabull4001]

THIS WAS MADE IN 1998 KAYFABE WAS ALREADY KILLED BY VINCE

[@hassanbharti6010]

Captain Lou takes a massive Lose

[@joeb2588]

of course it's fixed, like the circus.

[@termitevomit]

OH BY THE WAY MARCIA CLARK IS A LAWER ENOUGH SAID!!!!

[@keez2010]

Lapsed...

[@MrSockMonkey80]

this is 1998? c'mon man!

[@Danimal77]

This is crazy, because by 1998 it was had been publicly revealed and open that wrestling matches were pre-determined and that the wrestlers were merely glorified acrobats who weren't intentionally hitting or hurting each other. Lou must have known this by 1998, so why still maintain a lie when the industry was being honest with what it really was?

[@michaelallanrubin2376]

Wrong they hurt each other in enticingly it happens go read Gary Hart's book

[@termitevomit]

CHRIST EVERYTHING HERE IS RIGGED !!!!!

[@kaipopunohu5008]

Lapsed fan

[@-throat-]

dril

[@thetreblerebel]

Really...is fake? They really have to go there??

[@docholliday6338]

Used to love wrestling. To bad mcmahon exposed the entire business. Obviously it's not real

[@michaelpatanella]

lol who cares what it is. real or fake, neither of them ever cross my mind,
