Home Shopping Ladder Blooper

Harold McCoo of the Cable Value Network (CVN) takes a tumble off the ol flex-o-ladder as Karen Connelly looks on in this classic home shopping blooper. Check out his webpage haroldmccoo.com/Blooper.html
Here's a comment from the director of this classic moment: A little sentimental journey down CVN way. . .
Yes! My most diabolically cherished moment of all the hundreds of hours I sat in that CVN directors chair. Why the dark fates smiled on me that day, why they so honored me, remains a mystery, but there I was -- lets move into full flashback mode now. . .
The whole sell starts out routinely enough (as we all know, since Im sure that each of us cant even begin to count how many times weve watched this clip over the years) but it soon becomes very clear that his Grand Arrogance is suddenly staring imminent come-uppance right in the face.
Had it been anyone else except that little jerk, the instant he started climbing -- and folks pretty quickly sensed that things just did not feel right -- and then, especially when Karen says Harold, youre scaring me, had it been any other host, I would have gone to tape immediately so the floor could re-group and avoid what was stacking up to be complete catastrophe.
However, this was Harold. . . I wanted everyone to share in this rare and important milestone in Harolds life, and I wanted to allow him the opportunity to show everyone the kind of person he really was. And yes, I do take a certain pride, I must say, in playing no small part in making it possible for Harold McCoo to utter his famous, defiant, and pathetic line, now it's locked in place, and to make this line not only a household catch phrase, but also to provide His Twerpness with a perfect epitaph: HERE LIES HAORLD MCCOO; NOW HES LOCKED IN PLACE.... See More
But I must say, in Harolds defense, and especially since I am such a charitable old softie maybe its just the nun in me trying to bust lose once and for all, I dont know but as Harold writhes and slithers there on the floor and gosh darn if I didnt plumb forget to cut his mic he experiences an epiphany, a sudden realization of where he went wrong, and Ill always remember his contrite, confused, sad little voice: actually, I didnt have it locked. Its hard at first to pick out those words, those weak, tiny syllables especially since Karen is laughing so much but there it is.
Well, thats my story, boys and girls. Now, before we conclude our broadcast day, I will leave you with this thought. . .
Whenever Im down and feeling blue,
I think of Harold McCoo.
See how through the air he flies;
See how on the floor he writhingly lies.
O Harold, is there for you any safe refuge,
My little self-aggrandizing, egomaniacal stooge?
But let me just in these few words condense
Gratitude for all the laughs all at your expense.

he should've said ''well NOW it's REALLY locked in place, definitely not going any further down''

[@christophergoss4341]

Her genuine concern for Harold is obvious from the giggling.

[@jumpinjohnnyruss]

I don't see how she could help it. She's wondering what's been bent into a more inconvenient shape -- the ladder or his skeleton.

[@hillpe815]

cry about it.

[@skiesoficarus]

[@FinalFaintasy]

Sigh about it.

[@abi7456]

one of my favourite videos ever.

[@user-ss1ok1nr6l]

I love how he managed “It is very safe to operate. Continue to call for it” with the last breath he ever took.

[@PichDextro]

You can literally hear it in his voice when the adrenaline dwindles. He suddenly get quiter and quiter once the pain kicks in...

[@CARPital]

Yes, because adrenaline leaves the body within 2 seconds...

[@juha2031]

Is quiter a word?

[@PichDextro]

@@juha2031 It is indeed. Quiet, quieter, quietest I did originally misspell it though, I'm sorry.

[@marion_roberts]

I LOL'ed when the diagrams of different ladder positions included the "M" one that made him fall.

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

Hahahaha lmfao 👋🤣👍really!

The n didn't work and neither did the m lmaooo

Lmao I know that took me out lmao

[@charredskeleton]

Didn't notice that, good catch!

[@jeffreyhemphill3831]

It's truly amazing that he keeps on selling it and trying to convince people the ladder won't try to fuckin murder them too

[@DubbleTee]

"Whooa!...oh god Harold are you ok?" Then she doesnt even try to hold back her laughter. Im dead.

Almost 15 Years later...And this is still Funny as Hell.😂

15 years? This looks like it’s from the 90s.

Yes. Yes it is. Especially at 12:37am. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@michaelsouls703]

“Continue to call for it”.... LMAO!!!! Seen it 4 years ago, still effing funny!!! BTW, the ladder was upside down. Flip it, the locks will lock

[@danitho]

Oh that does make sense

[@kingjames4886]

thought something looked off...

[@kamalakrsna]

Yeah .. yu noticed that aspect

[@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823]

There's NO WAY I'd get on this cheap-a** thing. It's worth 305.50 now!! It's garbage. Meanwhile, women who weigh 140 buy enormous Werner ladders with a weight limit of 350 pounds... That's why they live longer.

[@mvcharisma2968]

Ladder shifts - ‘See now it’s locked in place’ ‘Actually I didn’t have it locked’ 😂

[@CuhahhFoo]

“Now it’s locked in place” with a straight face.. This guy can sell a mirror to a blind person

[@JoshuaCastillo6309]

He literally banged his head on the ladder and says “Actually, I didn’t have it locked” in the most normal tone possible.

[@PIlotrcm]

"...but it is very safe to operate...so... continue to call for it."

[@userchad2198]

I love how she says. "It is?" when he says it's tuff. And the ladder scares her. xd She has her doubts about the ladder they're selling. lol

[@benr.2066]

She had seen the future

[@Von.NorthEnd]

A true salesmen that kept his composure even while drifting into a coma salute 🫡 👏🏾

[@JonJacques]

The confidence with which he says “now it’s locked in place” is amazing.
