Overcoming A Creepy Clown Phobia (Coulrophobia) I The Speakmans

[@RoseMandrack]

I've been afraid of clowns my whole life thanks to my dad, and I still can't get my mind wrapped around the fact she wasn't having a panic attack at the end....

[@Scuro1000]

THIS VIDEO CONTAINS CLOWNS lol I just love the extremely serious way he said that XDDD

[@crystalwright6126]

Scuro1000 it's a serious matter stupid, i was watching scary clown pranks when i was 5 coz at first i thought they were funny then after 1 week of watching them i was terrified of them, now im 13 and still scared

[@Scuro1000]

Crystal wright I posted that comment a long time ago and didn't quite realise yet the importance of trigger warning stuff so that people with phobias can feel safe. I'm sorry :(

[@crystalwright6126]

It's fine

[@MilkT0ast]

Omg so scary guys

[@katherinecollins4685]

Just shows what an amazing job The Speakmans do

[@nikandevaspeakman]

You are just so, so lovely, thank you xxx

[@awooga07]

it's not like she's going to come into contact with clown's every day though ....unless she lives in a circus

[@bigl6276]

It's okay awooga - you don't have to have a point to comment here.

[@tonycrony5981]

Now show her pennywise

[@wondermama8179]

NO! Not cool! Not cool at all!!

[@mylittlesystem6680]

So I guess her favorite game isn't Twisted Metal

[@MikeSmith-rn8mj]

Irrational fears should be dealt with if they become a problem. It absolutely is a problem if you "freak out" at any point while out in public and run across your phobia.

[@sammikat123]

Clowns don't scare me but they creep me the fuck out.

[@cocomunga]

I wonder how she'd have reacted to "Killer Klowns from Outer Space" ?

[@AWlpsSHOW36]

Yes I found it!!!! I was obsessed with this video when I was younger and was amazed by how quick this woman overcame her phobia. I'm terrified of clowns and I don't think I would have the guts to face that fear like she did. I'm so glad that this video is still up and around KZbin and I'm so happy to see it again after many years! And this was the first video I ever saw of Phil and Holly! I love Phil and Holly. They are probably the best TV presenters ever and I enjoy watching them.

[@deanwinchester822]

Clowns scare me I hate them so much

[@onepiece7122]

same and I see you watch supernatural

[@Sweetgirl-ev6bs]

Sam Winchester no he. Is cute

[@deanwinchester822]

Elizabeth Stott I don't just watch it I'm addicted to it

[@onepiece7122]

sammmmmeeeeee

[@ethannicholas]

Sam Winchester then you should watch Stephen King's IT. You'll float too.

[@ohhaveyounotheard]

My anxiety is through the roof watching this .

[@ethannicholas]

Kaelin Ripley you'll float too

[@aquaticspasticp5024]

You may have a phobia of this morning, or it's Philip.

[@stephensnell1379]

@@aquaticspasticp5024 that's silly

[@Flittershine]

Yeah, I can understand her fear. Clowns are down-right scary.

[@TallSilentGuy]

If it were the Maury Show they would have had six clowns suddenly rush onto the stage and try to kiss her.

[@0zalbo]

i like the fact that her husband is so understanding

[@wondermama8179]

I sooo, so, so, so KNOW how she feels about clowns! I faint if I'm in the same room with one!

[@sk8erboi66ericko]

I have fear of holes... but not just one hole... I have a very high anxiety when I see one hole next to another, and other and other and so on... specially when they're on someone's skin. It's called trypophobia. Don't google it.

[@katrina374]

Same! I hate it:(

[@sk8erboi66ericko]

lol, it's terrible

[@dilazula]

me too. once in a group chat someone sent a foto of it even I said I had a phobia and I had a panic attack. I hated the person so much

[@sk8erboi66ericko]

[@dilazula]

Thank you for the warning. :)

[@KIRA-EL]

There was one town during Halloween where they kept having reports of people dressed like creepy clowns all over the place popping up on the side of the road and at playgrounds ect She might have died if she saw that.

[@jingem9406]

In the beginning "this video contains clowns: (" XD omg lmao

[@WonderfulAkari]

This one is super common, there is a reason that so many haunted houses base themselves around clowns. (which probably contributes to the fear.)

[@b-m9480]

its super common because the majority of the populace are feeble minded morons

[@WonderfulAkari]

It's common because every single human being was once a child and these phobias are usually formed from bad childhood experiences. Phobias aren't just being "Afraid" it's a legitimate disorder and is as valid as a physical disorder.

[@b-m9480]

No you are wrong, it is not common. The people you see online claiming they are genuinely afraid are bullshitting. Any mentally stable adult is capable of knowing a clown is a clown. They may find them vaguely off-putting, but they are not afraid of them. People might justify their so called "phobia" because of the infamous John Wayne Gacy but he is not scary because of his shitty clown makeup. He's scary because he murdered people and hid them in a crawl space. A lot of people are fake coulraphobics because of this since they will point to extremely - often intentionally - evil-looking clowns such as pennywise from IT. Of course an evil clown is scary. It's scary because clowns are inherently innocent. They're there to enterntain and make fools out of themselves to make you laugh. When you give them bloody fangs and weird, smeary eyes and a hatchet, of course that's creepy. Don't point to intentionally creepy clown makeup and say that's why clowns are scary. That's scary because it's meant to be scary, not because it's a clown.

[@achmedlolol]

DON'T YOU WANT A BALLOON?! THEY FLOAT! THEY ALLLL FLOAT! AND YOU WILL FLOAT TOO

[@pyroshayniac1090]

She's very brave!

[@valley180]

how often are you going to run into a clown in real life though?

[@stephensnell1379]

It will or can happen at any time

[@RabiesBite]

I can see why people would be afraid of them. Just how they look falls completely into the uncanny valley. :c

[@KurtCobainsMicrophone]

I'm not scared of clowns, but I don't like them either. If I came across one- I wouldn't be scared, but I would be slightly uncomfortable and try and avoid them.

[@Anahilopezzx]

same

[@eternal-sunshine222]

Same

[@geraldineperez5384]

Me too

[@joshuah20halloween1]

demi can sang her ass off

[@KurtCobainsMicrophone]

Katiey cart I know, she's my idol :)

[@gabriellaberman]

My biggest fear is scary wax figures. Like I've been to Madame Tussauds and loved it, but there's a scary part and I nearly cried thinking about going in there. Also my parents have tried taking me to this art exhibition with these wax figures when I was about 12 and I cried because I didn't want to go in

[@BiohazardCrow]

+Gab Berman Grab a baseball bat and smash them out! Your fear will go away very quickly.

[@amiboxall2968]

I have a horrible phobia of clowns and I know what she feels

[@1eastmms]

so much kinder and more understanding than the phobias on maury, that should have been classed as torture

[@AWlpsSHOW36]

Maury was never about helping people overcome their phobias. It was just about exploitation for the sake of entertainment. He and his show are disgusting.

[@valkyrasonara1797]

This is the cutest Clown I ever seen! :D

[@sm4carnageihope]

I used to be scared of Clowns, there was once a Clown who visited my school and I ran away, but I've managed to overcome my past fear when I entered my teenage years. I still find them creepy no doubt. But my current phobia is the ocean, mainly due to a certain killer sea creature, you know the one.

[@flouflis1a]

This is a specific phobia and so much easier to get rid off than social phobia. I wish there were more documentaries about social phobia. It helps me to see and yet they're not around...

[@mastermindhunter]

I am not personally terrified of clowns, if I see a clown on a street, I won't scream bloody murder like others, but they do however creep me out. And while I do find them extremely creepy, they don't necessarily instill fear into me. I could describe it best at being comfortably settled into the uncanny valley. I won't have a full blown panic attack, but if there was a clown at the harvest festival in my hometown, I'll go down another street.

[@mjbahr9386]

Her heartbeat is still high (over 100). This may in modern medicine ignored, but it actually is a problem. My recommendation to all watching this video is to take oriental medicine as a complement to your medication to complete your remedy.

[@romi0403]

I'm super scared of clowns

[@maina2999]

Me too

[@bizarrowxrld2089]

😂😂😂

[@bizarrowxrld2089]

+ponylove56 😙

[@SaRyMa18]

Im kinda afraid of Clowns too. Not that I would turn around and go away, or that I would freak out, but I really ... just dont want to go close to them if there is a way not to. The make-up is scaring me somehow. That drawn smile.

[@ihascupquakeiloveu]

shes not alone i am afraid of clowns

[@shendritgashi93]

Your a clown !

[@chriszelina9523]

This women is not a Tim curry fan I'm guessing

[@gavsky23]

It all started when I moved-in next door to a Circus, not realising that the entire street was clown-based. In fact, the whole town was full of clowns...

[@FatallyParasocial]

I am terrified of clowns. Even harmless ones.

[@falur]

After the clown picture - Captain Spaulding should pop up!;D

[@timfly767]

Eva Speakman is a very beautiful and stylish woman. The results she achieves with Nick are simply astonishing.

[@nikandevaspeakman]

That's a very lovely compliment, thank you.

[@merro05]

Imagine if when she shook the clowns hand, he had one of those electric buzzers attached to his palm.

[@StardustSky100]

How long ago did the button one air ? I remember that slighty , was it before the doctor regenerated into matt smith ( I judge time by that o.0) but I remember it. It's like one if those pointless but amazing memories .

[@ivailoto5]

Thats how I got my fear of clowns...I was only 5 but the scares are already there

[@amyvalintine2286]

[@patrick-un7hy]

[@toriintra]

Clowns, rubber bands, and right doors, i fear them all

[@lydiaMitsoj]

[@zoe51409]

I cannot cope watching this, it's driving me mad. I hate clowns

[@gordonremsey8055]

Don't worry and your not alone, fear of clowns is common unlike me I'm scared of hospital operation rooms now that's weird

[@rammergramps]

that was amazing from at the start to then end. Wow, wonder if they could cure my friend of her phobia with giraffes

[@TechNubian1]

Fear Of Clowns, the animated series. Wow !

[@alyssa-lt9kh]

I've been afraid of clowns my whole life it sucks because I would love to go to a circus but I hate clowns xD

[@merdinadam640]

I have a lot of phobias... Clowns are not one of them. Here are my phobias. Spiders, bugs, scorpions, snakes to some extent, Clusters of holes, darkness or night, tall buildings, heights, hell or demons, angels or ghosts, silence, tiny rooms, public speaking and sometimes even looking at inanimate objects freak me out, I have to look away. Like if I look at an empty chair or swing I get really dizzy and feel my heart rate exceeding.

[@coreycox2345]

There is something creepy about clowns.

[@Sam-kr1mu]

I’m not afraid of clowns I just find them annoying and don’t want to deal with them

[@taniaallen1195]

I'm am terrified of CLOWNS!

[@lana77781]

I AM SO SCARED OF THEM

[@trigopicalculus9826]

When they said this video contains clowns I literally just stopped. I can't cope with clowns. I literally can't watch the Simpsons because Krusty the Clown is in it. Everyone always says that I'm silly and that it's a dumb thing to be scared of but they don't understand how terrifying it is to me to be near a clown. There's a guy in my class in school that is so mean, he will say 'there's a clown behind you' and I just leave the room. I'm so glad there are other people with this problem.

[@taniaallen1195]

I am terrified of clowns!

[@EuanREANTICENAGUY]

i understand how you feel i used to be afraid of clowns but i got over it by it and killjoy

[@gracetopping5650]

I have a very bad fear of spiders. I sometimes cry if they are near me x

[@youtubeaholic2999]

the sewers are awesome! have you ever been down there?

[@minnie_xox5540]

omg lots of people have this even i have this im terrified of clowns like why the frick would a circus have clowns if they know kids are scared of them

[@mel87kel]

I listened to this but I didn't really watch it, for obvious reasons; if I see one I have to get away from them, right away; at my worst I shook, I got really upset, I screamed and I had to cover my face with my pillow until it was gone, now if I see one in real life I can stay quiet (I'll scream in my head but not aloud) buuut only if they're 20 or some feet away, I never let them get close. I have to get away from them.

[@bizarrowxrld2089]

😉

[@ebonyblakely2989]

my biggest fear are clowns. it is hard for me to watch this! I HATE CLOWNS!!!!!!!

[@arthousefairyy]

I have Coulrophobia and it sucks, I went to a town fair and actually needed to be resuscitated after hyperventilating

[@stephjones5099]

Its amazing what words and pictures can do to peopld with phobias dont you agree?

[@lydiaanderson7481]

my phobia is clowns too. when i had a sleepover at my bffs house, she had a glass clown in her room and we had tolock it in the bathroom

[@sodapop81]

6:27 Wow, I can see why that would be scary.

[@bpg9992]

My dad put this on and I have caulrophobia so he's I'm shaking right now

[@TheFirstDandelione]

00:10 what is the fear of bad hair called?

[@AntlersAndAcorns]

I have a fear of vomit........

[@magicmeerkat76]

Same... if someone says they feel sick I end up having a panic attack and make myself sick with the fear :( (I'm also trypophobic and arachnophobic)

[@kyrktd2178]

[Internal Screams] omg I thought I was the only one!!! if I see sick, hear sick, or see someone vomiting, I would cry! once when my mom projectile vomited in the car, I never wanted to go in the car again, but I've gotten better.

[@thetruepatriot7733]

that's actually a common fear..

[@KittyPieKawaii]

i can understand this phobia. im deathly afrain of heights and flying in a plane and thats understandable to everyone... i know where my fear started (the movie Final Destination w the plane) and i wish i knew how to get rid of them without flying or being on a high building... sometimes i can handle it sometimes no way.

[@小莓人魚]

At least she didn’t have to struggle for giving up on McDonald’s. I need help on my Big-Mac addiction, which is more horrible. Could there be a therapist who can put coulrophobia in me?

[@ElegantDreamCatcher05FJC]

Okay... I'm scared of clowns too... Idk if ill be able to even watch this... But imma try....

[@anastasia-wj2bv]

This video contains clowns... Oh God thanks for the warning

[@someoneelse1086]

im coulrophobic too, i cant co to circus, i cant go a pace qith clowns, they make i cry and i can desesperate, im really coulrophobic

[@Anj1021gaming]

can someone please tell me why people are scared of clowns? is it just because they look creepy or what?

[@BladeDragon95]

I got traumatized when i was a kid watching IT,and thats when my fear of clowns started. Its not as bad as it used to be, but I still can't come face to face with one without being on the verge of a panic attack. It depends on the person. But mostly, phobias start as a result of a traumatizing experience. And researchers also say that people are scared of other people that have an unknown face or something like that.

[@melissanajera9434]

BladeDragon95 i have this same clown phobia mine is still pretty bad. If anyone dressed up as a clown nd gets in my face i will beat them and most ppl think it is funny bt its nt

[@cowboyfunkk]

ok, I love the circus, but the whole idea of going and there being a clown is terrifying... I went when I was little and there were clowns, they creeped me out cos the just stared at me with creepy eyes... I didn't develop a fear of clowns until about 2 years ago! I hate them

[@RoIIingStoned]

whats will ferrel doing there?

[@shahzadkingg]

If I saw a clown I would attack him but if I saw a dog or a bee I'll run until I can't run anymore

[@kenoh408]

what movie is it? :/

[@QuacksXD]

what movie?

[@Xandermorph]

I think that movie only works IF you have a fear of clowns to begin with - unless you see the movie at a young enough age to where it can have a permanent impact on you. Maybe this was because I was already familiar with Tim Curry as a kid, but when I saw the movie It at age 9 or 10 I thought Curry was just hilarious :P My friends were all freaking out and I just couldn't take the killer clown seriously lol. Every time he appeared, I just saw the concierge character from Home Alone 2 at its apex

[@alexflame1173]

I used to be scared of clowns... How it started was when i was staying the night at a friends house and they were watching some kinda cowboy move and a clown showed up, I wasn't surprised but the cowboy told him to put a apple on his head and he was about to shoot the clown but he didn't and the clown a really scary face and then i could never see a clown again... but that was when i was 9 but when i turned 10 i liked clowns. ._.
