are people seriously debating on whether the disrespect is justified or not? monkman is a rad dude, instantly liked his over the top nerdieness, personality and facial expressions. a guy i dont want to face in a trivia quiz, of that i'm certain.

[@jeremywestern7067]

Why was he pressing his buzzer during the closing credits? Didn't he know the show had ended?

[@Frabjous1]

Because this is an edit. Monkman actually did quite well on the show.

[@jeremywestern7067]

Frabjous no you're mistaken... if you listen carefully you can hear him answering questions during the shows closing credits

[@NickCookie45]

Because they aren't actually the closing credits... they are edited

[@jeremywestern7067]

Somerandomguy330 no... monkman doesn't realise the show has ended and keeps answering questions as the credits roll... please watch the video more closely in future

[@NickCookie45]

It's EDITED, its not the real credits from the show...

[@isaacs8783]

What about "he who lives by the sword shall perish by the sword?" I thought that was his signature phrase.

[@liam111]

You'll find that in The Best Of Monkman 2 which is in my other vids

[@tanyadyne]

Oh my god the way he says "Mao Ze Dong" ahahaha I can't.

[@inkyscrolls5193]

He pronounces it correctly.

[@kono5933]

The fact he pronounced it correctly despite his Canadian accent is why its funny tho

[@dreamer2260]

As others have pointed out, that's how you're supposed to pronounce it...

[@tanyadyne]

@@dreamer2260 haha this was ages ago but yeah, I wasn't laughing at his pronunciation (yes it's correct, I know), it was the staccato-like enthusiasm in his voice coupled with his serious face that was funny

[@dreamer2260]

@@tanyadyne haha fair enough yep he’s got a unique style of delivery

[@danbrownfan]

I don't know why, but this well edited, silly video made me laugh much more than it should of done. I'm guessing because i've met many Monkman's in my life and it's hilarious how he's portrayed in this, well done!

[@liam111]

Thank you sir. I think the editing on this is a bit ropey but it was the first one I did. Please feel free to have a watch of this Monkman one I did (i'm far prouder of the editing on this one) kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqnRcnd-lNiJo7M

What he has (aside from being a genius) is personality, sadly lacking in this day and age. I saw him on the One show and he was really nice. Get off his back. Funny as in quirky cool. Respect.

[@mtcroomcal]

jeremy western, sorry to say this, but you are wrong. This video complies footage of Eric Monkman, a montage of Eric Monkman Answering questions with the credits of the show super imposed over top of this montage footage. Perhaps look up the definition of "MONTAGE" and "SUPER IMPOSED" if you need a little help understanding this. I also attended school for 12 years with Eric Monkman in Oakville Ontario Canada... Brentwood elementary school, New Central Middle school and Oakville Trafalgar HIghschool . He is a brilliant, precocious, and intellectual person, however also exhibits symptoms of autism spectrum savant disorder. Perhaps looking up the definition of "SAVANT" might also help you understand this. All in all, I am sorry you are wrong jeremy western. accept it, learn form it an move on big guy/girl?
