Monty Python - The Bridge Of Death - HD WITH ENGLISH SUBTITLES

From: "Monty Python And The Holy Grail" - 1975

[@matt709]

“What is your favorite color?” “Blue… no yellow” *dies*

[@tarheelpro87]

Guy didn’t even know his favorite color, I think a look at his exam scores would make me feel better about mine.

[@sandal_thong8631]

I don't like this movie, but I love that answer.

[@McLarenMercedes]

@@tarheelpro87 Here's the thing, he *did* know his favorite color but instinctively answered precisely as Lancelot had done before him when he had replied "blue". But since Galahad's favorite color actually is yellow he realized his own mistake too late as this made him a liar and therefore was the wrong answer.

[@shawnv123]

mf got the easiest question wrong

[@SpeakUltimateTruth]

When Arthur puts the bridge keeper in the pit by asking which swallow he meant...just comedy. Beautiful beautiful comedy.

[@Geckogold]

I loved how this was foreshadowed earlier when Arthur was being lectured about this topic with two guards at a castle.

The random intermission is such a good and underrated joke

[@HuntingTarg]

It sets up the end of the movie, the same way that "5 questions" "3 questions sire!" "3 questions..." sets up how they 'cook off' the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch. Brilliant writing.

[@WillowLackett]

It's crazy to know that all while filming this, Graham was quitting alcohol, and experiencing *severe* withdrawal, including giving him bad vertigo, uncontrollable shaking, migraines, insomnia, and plenty others. Graham basically started this film at the peak of his addiction, and ended it on a rough 3 years to being fully sober, when they started filming for Life of Brian.

[@sergeantarchdornan3013]

Given our beloved King Arthur can't count to three, I'm not convinced that old man was in scene 24. It might have been a different scene completely.

[@gedalyahreback2133]

The callback with the 'African or European swallow' question is such a great moment. It would be great in a dramatic movie, too. It was set up so perfectly.

[@tachikomakusanagi3744]

[@bobholly3843]

I like how the intermission is just long enough for ppl to think it's real and start getting up only for it to go right back to the exact same shot

[@dawninglight357]

This one of my favorite scenes from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Especially when the Bridgekeeper gets uno reversed into the Gorge

[@bobholly3843]

I couldn't stop laughing the very first time I saw that

[@ongbonga9025]

If Brave Sir Robin were as clever as His Majesty, then he may have had the perfect opportunity to cast the gatekeeper into the gorge. The capital of Assyria varied over time, and their empire collapsed around 700BC, well before this accurate portrayal of history was set. Assur was the first capital (and the third), while Harran was the last. There are also four others, including Nimrud. At the very least, Sir Robin should have asked for clarity regarding the specific time, and if the gatekeeper wasn't on the ball, he would have been cast into the Gorge of Eternal Peril instead of Brave Sir Robin. Still, at least he went in for having a tough question, unlike Sir Galahad, who fucked it right up.

[@danleon5716]

"...unlike sir Galahad, who fucked it right up." 😂😂😂😂

[@tlamiczka]

Fun fact - the Bridge of Death is random encounter in Fallout 2 game. You can even destroy the bridge keeper by smart counter-question 😀

[@GameArchiver]

"How do you know so much about swallows?" "Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know." - lol

[@ohari1]

I ask my family “Questions three” any time I can work it into conversation

[@user-qu6ij5sl1v]

Fun fact: king arthur was detoxing from alcohol during filming because they didn't have booze on set. The wikipedia page says he was in active DTs during this scene which sounds like horseshit but he still looks terrible lolol you can see it all over his face around 2:50 when he's talking to the bridge person. I'm surprised he could keep his voice steady

[@borhaptrash5454]

It’s not just on Wikipedia, there is an interview from the mid 80s when he was on letterman, and he talked about this

[@Anchor-Supreme]

The funniest part of this scene is that it likely is a callback to the scene where some guards argue with Arthur on where his coconuts came from.

[@ongbonga9025]

Likely? Are you a detective? If not you definitely should be, you're very observational and astute.

[@Ixarus6713]

"Look! It's the old man from scene 24!" 😂😂😂
