Conan's legs are four times longer than an average giraffe's neck.

Giraffes are all extraordinary

[@TonyEnglandUK]

lol it is extraordinary, paused at 3:14

[@Dira091998]

This was 12 years ago and I love the fact that they have not changed at all.

[@anonym58063]

Pretty sure Ricky lost a lot of weight since then. Plus the beard

[@vincevvn]

They’ve both become infinitely more cynical if you pay attention

[@TheTruthKiwi]

Holy moly I thought this was recent and was worried about Ricky's weight gain, Conans voice and the lack of social distancing. They legit haven't changed (much) in 12 years

[@umair111]

And we're back in a recession too, yay!

[@Aih1616]

actually Ricky looking better now. Comedy wise same

[@aeshaeshaesh]

0:14 you know this clip is old when Conan refers to a selfie as a "self portrait"

[@nottodayisay]

And that Gervais put pictures on his blog 👵🏻

[@ando4227]

Guys, you can see how commited Conan is, he is struggling with throat pain. And still going on like a pro, Respect 🙌

[@noelsamuel3884]

Sounds like a robot!!!

[@shivamshuklaaa]

We all know Conan doesn't age but look at the producer Jeff Ross, he looks the same as he does today 😂😂

[@DissyK]

It's because of all the soup he's having : )

[@nickgreen2905]

Yeah 70 years old!

[@patri6794]

How is it possible that Gervais' hips and Conan's knees are pretty much at the same level xD

[@paleamigo8575]

Only Conan would do an airplane in business attire in front of millions of viewers and be proud of it.🤣🤣🤣👍

[@spirosb7822]

Oh so he was doing that stuff even before social media became huge? Ricky Gervais is amazing and hilarious and he works great with Conan. He's one of my favourite guests because they have great chemistry.

David Baddiel, Gervais, O’Brien in a room would be comedy gold.

its the correct setup for airplanes, adds to the sense of danger!

Conan basically chokes on Ricky's knees there at the end.

[@SuperMunkeh]

If Conan did a live show with that sore throat these days he’d be classed as a super spreader and possibly locked up 🤣

[@hoorootv1]

I was just looking at how long Conan O'Brien's body looks compared to Ricky Gervais, particularly the legs. Conan makes Ricky look like a dwarf in that photo ❗

[@Vnifit]

Conan literally sounds like William Dafoe in this

[@CyberUK]

2 comedy geniuses come together. Love this.

I have watched almost all clips of Conan and Ricky and have to say I love how Conan just matches with Ricky's silliness and goes with it. Just love them both.

[@minionofgozer7414]

Conan was the best host, he's even better now with his own podcast. The only one I liked because he was genuine, and still is! 🤷‍♂️😎
