The clone concept of not knowing who the original is, is a key aspect of some bad guys called the Mauler Twins in the Invincible comicbook series and it’s actually so interesting that Karl thought about that dilemma, I like Ricky Gervais at times but he really doesn’t give Karl enough credit for being intelligent in his own way

[@kalibos]

Gervais has said on a number of occasions that he loves the way Karl's mind works and that he's very bright in his own way.

[@TheDeepState2001]

@@kalibos "enough" pay attention to what he wrote

[@scerpalman]

Surely you would know that you had been cloned though, therefore you would know you're the original? Unless you both have exactly the same memories, but then that isn't really a clone.

[@TheDeepState2001]

@@scerpalman Clones would never have the same memories. A clone is a normal person that just looks like you. How they are brought up and the choices they make will mold their personality so it will be completely different to the original person. It's like the butterfly effect, every different choice they make would lead to a different outcome.

If aliens ever visit, Karl is who I would send as an ambassador

[@thetomster7625]

gotta say, that "how would I know which one I was" is smarter then the other two guys got. he specifically asked "does he know what I know"; so basically asking "is it really and exact copy in that moment down to the knowledge and thoughts". in that case the question makes sense, because both versions would think they are the real one and both versions wouldn't want to end whatever that existence would be at the end of this one day.

[@adamseccombe3806]

The last one actually makes sense if the clone had all your memories up until present day. You wouldn't be able to tell of you're the clone or not.

[@abbyfawaz7422]

yeah makes sense, since there is a sort of neural duplication. so the clone would have the memory of creating a clone... unless of course your clone has no memories

[@bnap3221]

2:00 why does spaceman Karl have the American flag on his spacesuit? American animators being cheeky

[@DowzerWTP72]

@samplexample Because he likely would have had to use a snorkel to begin the dive. I know it's animated, but they've obviously put some thought into it. If we were ignoring all the real life rules, then there'd be nothing stopping Karl from wearing a 3 piece suit and sandals while swimming.

[@Seantendo]

Proper weird.

[@IronBubbles]

This should be Karl's Most Interesting Moments. Karl is very introspective, absolutely philosophical on the clone part.

[@screensaves]

the last one was philosophically genius, if the clone was made with the exact same memories and experiences, you wouldnt know if u were the clone all along or not

[@fullofwhiskey4911]

The longer time passes, the more we appreciate how unique Karl actual is.Granted yes, he’s got some truly hilarious (dumb) moments, but he’s smarter than Ricky / Steve proceed him to be.

Netflix show "Living with yourself" is based on the same principle of cloning and not knowing who is the real one, exactly as Karl said. Mind blown!

Karl’s right about the clone... if it is an exact replica neither will know who the original is.

No, the one with all the memories will know it's the original, a clone won't have the same memories as the person it was cloned from.

[@theobnoxiouslycharming1747]

And bullying him for his own stupidity or ignorance.

[@dshishod]

I strangely agree with him on the last one as the other exact replica would also have same memories thoughts and believe he was original Karl. So you would maybe think 🤔 Am I original me or are the memories there just because we are exact replicas. The other one would also have been told he’s meeting an exact replica of himself. His truth & the replicas truth would be exactly the same. So how could you say for definite to yourself that you are the original you🤔 if that makes sense 😬

[@hostage101]

[@Sir_Stalwart]

"How would I know which one I was?" I simply didn't expect that. It came out so genuinely and profound, it blew my mind a little. The ultimate existential dilemma "Am I real, or am I the clone?" I'm not sure what show this is from, but I'm kinda infatuated by it, especially the 50's cartoon style, it's a fantastic touch!

[@scottbain1383]

How old I know which one I was, is one of the most intelligent answers possible from an existential perspective.

[@cybronec]

that last one is just philosophical

[@beautyh.9898]

That clone one was deep, and had me thinking.

[@THE_VictoryPictures]

4:49 Yeah, there has been someone who said dumber things than Karl: Katie Perry to Neill Degrasse Tyson: “Is math related to science?”

[@dereksawle]

Actually, on the last one, Karl has a point. If Karl knows that the other clone is like him in every way, how is he to know he is not the clone, because the clone will be thinking exactly the same. Karl, I'm with you on this one ! 👍

[@Mills-jw9nc]

It's like the synths on fallout t

[@chattingesque372]

Because he's visualizing what the clone might be thinking, therefore he is an observer

[@dereksawle]

@@chattingesque372 No he's not. that's my point. Neither him or the clone will know they are the clone, because they are exactly identical. Both will suspect the other is the clone.

[@chattingesque372]

@@dereksawle no he's saying "which one I am/was" the I implies that there is someone there. Whichever I he is, is him. Otherwise you can ask yourself, "how do you know that you are real?" and not be able to answer. Decartes already covered this "I think therefore I am". If Karl was thinking about the clone, that means he can't be the clone because he is Karl. There is only one Karl. Otherwise any of us could be Karl.

The look on Rick's face at 4:34 That was also my expression

[@Rkenichi]

Imagine cloning yourself, with all memories including the act of cloning, and you recorded it and tagged the clone to denote that it’s the clone, only to discover that you were the clone with the tag and the duplicated memories fooled you. You basically realized everything you ever knew was a lie and you’ve only existed for however long it took to clone you. How depressing would that be

[@cosmobawler]

Can't believe Karl predicted living with yourself the Paul Rudd netflix show

[@unconsciouslyaware5388]

I have always found Karl to be extremely profound with his thinking, its just he has no capability to put it into words other than breaking it down to its barest point, so in a way Ricky and Karl are the perfect fit, they are both extremes in that way.

[@colleenmorrisonlyons1116]

What he is trying to say about jellyfish and octopi is that they appear, move and act alien compared to most other living species, which is true. The Clive Warren idea was part of S04 E06 Black Museum in the Black Mirror series. When he tried to "see" his toe without using his eyes he was trying to do a type of meditation. I also understand his questions regarding our consciousness and the awareness of our own existence. The way he expresses it though is utterly hilarious and no one in the world takes the mick out of someone like Ricky Gervais. And Stephen Merchant really increases the overall average height of the show.

[@nadiablack4797]

[@Goodsoldiersfolleworders99]

[@SanatoZen]

I thought the last one was quite interesting. Imagine one of the clones going "your memories are fabricated".

[@D1llsta]

The last point is quite a genuine stance in philosophy. I mean both you and your clone will claim to have experienced your past, but only one was physically there. If the clone were physically identical, there would be no way to distinguish the original!

-until the end of the 24 hours when the Clone stops existing.

[@alosim1541]

No cause if you saw the clone being made that would still count as one of your memories that the clone would be imbued with. So either way there’s no way to really tell which one you are
