Monty Python - Non-Illegal Robbery

[@NivMizzet89]

Mock it all you want, but you've got to admit this kind of robbery has quite a high success rate.

[@crystalsheep1434]

True

[@theylivewesleep.5139]

A tip from an experienced robber: If you want to make sure the victim stays silent then tell them they can keep the money left over (in the event that you payed with a sum that was larger than the value of the object).

[@amandeepgill5206]

Mother fucker that's call a job!

[@dannunya959]

too successful if you ask me. i think we should decriminalize decriminalized robberies. see how much decriminalized crime rates will raise other crimes rates!

[@Skavennnn]

If there were fewer robbers, there wouldn't be so many of them, numerically speaking. Wise words.

[@markh.6687]

It's thinking like that which leads to absolutely so little that one could say the amount is almost naught.

[@dannunya959]

yes very wise

[@pricesmith3417]

John Cleese's slamming the desk at the parking meter is one of the best and most believable things ever

[@think4986]

"If there were fewer robbers, there wouldn't be so many of them - numerically speaking." The man does have a point.

[@miikavihersaari3104]

And, as such, there wouldn't be as many of them. Now, I might be overreaching here, but wouldn't that mean that their quantity would be lower?

[@EchoesfromtheCosmos]

@@miikavihersaari3104 The number in terms of quantity, you mean? I'm not an expert but it makes sense to my layman mind.

[@miikavihersaari3104]

@@EchoesfromtheCosmos Yes, and perhaps in some sense in terms of amount as well? Although I feel very unqualified to present these suggestions as I'm not a professor of numbers.

[@AdamantLightLP]

@@miikavihersaari3104 While were at it, if we make it so nothing is illegal, there will be no more crime.

It's rude to point.

If only all robbers were this polite and conscientious!

[@isaackim7675]

Well they can't, it's illegal.

[@tv2109]

Isaac Kim Well, I think being illegal makes it more exciting!

[@isaackim7675]

Todd Victorson If they want to go straight, might as well a vicar or something.

[@tv2109]

Isaac Kim Oh no, I think the parking meter is overdue. I better leave the country.

[@isaackim7675]

Todd Victorson Haha.

[@CHRB-nn6qp]

The way Michael Palin says, "They wouldn't give it to us if we didn't pay for it, would they?" is fucking amazing. He genuinely sounds so baffled 😂

[@AsheandCinders]

this sketch stole my heart... by paying full price for it

[@darkprose]

"I think sexual ecstasy is overrated." LOL I love this show.

[@patrickdeoliveira75]

One day I want to go to the watch store dressed as a robber and take a watch after paying for it, of course.

[@daemonCaptrix]

It's illegal to dress as a robber in public. (Assuming you dress in a way that people will recognize as a robber)

[@schoolsout901]

daemonCaptrix what country do you live in

[@crystalsheep1434]

@@daemonCaptrix what really

[@daemonCaptrix]

@@schoolsout901 The planet Earth

[@AdamantLightLP]

@@daemonCaptrix Maybe in Europe, where you better have a license to be in public in the first place. I guarantee you that you can do it in the US. You might be asked to leave (which would then make you trespassing, but until that point I don't think it would be illegal.

[@Narmacil427]

1:15 Terry Jones almost loses it when delivering that line :D Smiling and almost busting out laughing

[@isaackim7675]

This explains the psychology of the criminal mind.

[@johnbongjoey5200]

BURMA!

John Bong Joey Why'd you say Burma then?

IOwnTheSpire That's what I am thinking.

[@MySerpentine]

[@rollercoasterdude96]

...We like dressing up, yes...

[@Aiwenil]

"Well, why are we paying for the watch?" "They wouldn't give it to us if we didn't pay for it, would they?!"

[@keithnaylor1981]

Terry Jones nearly cracks up when he says “why are we paying for the watch” Brilliant!

[@brianarbenz1329]

None of us watching noticed that the big elaborate plan was perfectly legal, even thought it clearly was. This shows how the theme and trappings of a situation guide people to judge it.

[@Wildboy789789]

"its the uniform that puts them off... that and my bad breath." LOL he is my favorite comedian from monty python

[@murielsartre]

When Michael throws things (or people), he's got pretty good power, don't 'e? Terry really did have to stop himself from going backwards at 1:43! I like how his energy is (usually) effortlessly centered when he's acting.

[@mfjdv2020]

We like dressing up, yes. Bloody brilliant :-D

[@LordofDiamondsMetal]

3:34 Sums up the entire Monty Python series in just a few words.

[@vumba1331]

"And now for something completely different" in best John Cleese voice 😮

[@HyattHyatt3179]

The first few lines are essentially what happens when introverts have to go somewhere they don't really want to

[@rulerofthebog]

I love the vicar bit. Terry Jones is absolutely priceless. :D

Hello there - opening bars to From Russia with Love...

[@wwb16]

rofl, i like how they almost laughed and broke character

[@polly_pasta]

How it feels! Going... to the store! With... anxiety!

[@mchschrm]

I love this!

[@nottherealpaulsmith]

some day i'd love to get some friends together and elaborately plan a regular trip to the store like this, full suits and trilby hats included

[@zombieslayer2003]

"I can't blow up the building, it's illegal!" "Oh, bloody hell." XD

[@johnmccrossan9376]

What if they bought the building

[@philipmcniel4908]

For a good laugh, turn on closed captioning:)

[@tjimicole2677]

+Philip McNiel For a better laugh, leave closed captioning off and just watch the sketch. I've heard the blokes in it are pretty funny.

[@Redtecho]

+Tjimi Cole The closed Captioning is dead wrong though.

[@pacificostudios]

"We like dressing up, yes" should be a Tik-Tok clip.

[@RazrHack]

That's actually badass that they got the rights to the From Russia With Love music.

[@johnb1150]

I think there's a law governing how long you can play it it was certainly less than ten seconds so they were okay but anymore and they would've had to pay licensing.

[@WonkaVator72]

3:06 -- One of my most memorable parts. Always loved these guys.

[@WalkEvilTalk]

I love the way Cleese slams the table!

[@annalisavajda252]

@348joey aagh!!! " british" was a roman deceit. it's ..........bleeding english. ( i'm not serious, though) you are right, some of it is hard for me; and i'm ONE yorkie !. it's supposed to be ( wide boy ) cockney. as an accent, it fails; but i like the idea.

[@jameshudson169]

That was quite good.

[@Veggie55]

British and Irish humour have GOT TO BE the best in the world. I mean really, I'm Irish and i mean Irish comedies are things like: Father Ted Killlinascully Podge and Rodge Gift Grub and more British are things like: Monthy Python Fawlty Towers Allo Allo! IT crowd I mean, Americans dont know good comedie when they see it. They laugh when someone says they're going to bed, i mean COME ON! British and Irish have gots to be the best ones :)

[@Wijo_Koek]

[@Ubritoons96]

As great as this already is, my favorite part about it is how Graham and John’s characters don’t do anything (aside from Cleese’s aggressive slamming the table). If Michael Terry and Eric get all the lines for the sketch, why are those 2 even here? I’ll tell you why, moral support silent bodies. My eyes are glued to them every single time in addition to laughing at the lines said by the speaking performers. XD

no one can truely top the comedy of classic monthy pythons truely the funniest things ever created was by monthy pythons!

@0ddc1 he left mostly because he didn't want to do another series as he said it takes a lot of you. that and he didn't want to have to decide with 4 other people what was going to be in the show. and he just wanted to do his own thing.

Painful to watch my lungs are collapsing from laughter.

[@kamatej]

good advice.. I wonder why sometimes it is so hard to take a joke.

[@SirPrizeMF]

@fredofasgarnia I think robbery constitutes not seeing any of it back.

[@iluvme4never]

@Erilis666 it really depends on you're sense of humor. considering this is british humor, its probably way different from what you're used to.

lol "they wouldnt give it to us if we didnt pay for it" XD.

[@Asstricks]

@CapitanoGUC Nah man. Just letting people know what my particular favorite part of the clip is. And not necessarily hearing impared people, but maybe people who don't speak english as a first language and who don't quite understand what's being said?

@KeithWasHere1 Hogwarts is where everyone from the UK goes at a certain age , because everyone knows we're all wizards. It's somewhere in the border between Scotland and England.
