When Karl Pilkington met Derren Brown

[@ZanderPingu]

One thing I love about Karl is that he talks to EVERYONE in exactly the same way. That is a very rare quality....and admirable in a lot of ways, I think.

[@computerman789]

+Kieran T I feel that he is honest and just speaks his mind, nothing too wrong with that.

[@Stelpots]

+Kieran T He doesn't talk shit he just doesn't put on an act he's not afraid to be himself and doesn't put anyone on a pedestal because of who they are. If he met the Queen he'd be the same.

[@Stelpots]

+Kieran T No I've only watched all the Idiot Abroads and The Ricky Gervais Shows and listened to these.

[@Stelpots]

+Kieran T OK well I'm not the one that resorted to name calling so no I'm not the troll here. I originally just gave my opinion without being rude or anything. Karl looks at things differently than most people and Ricky finds it hilarious so he takes the piss. But I don't think he talks shit to people as in treating them disrespectfully which your original post made it sound like you were saying. But maybe you just meant that he talks rubbish in general.

[@bumbledouche3323]

I'd love to see him talk to the Queen or something, just imagine her stunned face lol

[@vahurjoa210]

Karl: "It was the same trick Hitler used." Ricky (quickly): "Play the record!"

[@far_away_rhys]

"he's more special than that." Aww I love how much Karl loved meeting Darren Brown.

[@bigbowlowrong]

Why this encounter wasn't recorded on video I will never understand. One of history's great oversights.:(

[@orth82]

indeed!

[@vee__7]

it'd be as important as the zapruder film

[@matthewhampshire1088]

bigbowlowrong all of their conversations should have been visualised

[@abluewhale95]

There should be an animation made of it

[@goldytwatus1674]

It was a personal meeting

[@mightisright]

Faulty tooth? That's amazing.

[@TheGrumpyGuide]

"Sort of a.....faaauuullllty tooooth" Hahaha! Classic.

[@paulthoresen8241]

Grumpy Guide I think he was actually joking there but it's hard to tell. He has really subtle sarcasm sometimes

[@estebancomulet]

Lol at 8:58 Ricky’s incredibly shrill reaction - ‘no, It’s illegal’. Big scared cat

[@theresuga]

One of my favourite moments from the XFM days!

[@TomAllsopp]

why have these two not been filmed for an hour documentary. Two Legends.

[@skeleetoon]

Shame we never got Darren to come on the show like Steve said, that would have been a treat

[@dustyboi8975]

I love how the concept of the power of suggestion is lost on Karl and he immediately thinks Derren is some kind of wizard

[@joelangley7974]

That is mental, I was sat here doing it in my head as Karl was talking about it and I thought of the number 42...

[@FraserSan]

I think Karl wrote the letter himself just because he had thought of the faulty tooth joke :P

[@4damskii]

haha yeah!

[@Andreas_Mann]

Faulty tooth? This is why Karl is a genius in my mind

[@patchso]

Absolutely brilliant!

[@Fugitive0Z]

The 'Faulty Tooth' made the whole audio 'worth it' - Just. A set up? - Dunno.

[@kustomkure]

Sounds way to good to be a coincidence really.

[@andreasedborg2250]

God bless them

[@emoneyg33]

They were always sayin how bad this was on radio they must be for real a lil stuck up over there because this is gold i woulda loved this on radio waaay better then the junk in radio hete in us especially then..

[@ubuntuafrique5802]

“Faulty Too-th” 😂😂😂😂

[@scufitzuca]

i wonder if Derren was having a laugh while listening...

[@SteampunkResistance]

10:41 reminds me of that Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em episode where Frank has to go to court and the judge realizes that he is a bit simple so he lets him off lol.

[@Tomsfootiediary]

Jheez I knew it was 42 before he said it, madness.

[@skwaaaaa]

im not messing before he said it i thought of 42 aswell :O our minds think like karl pilkington :D

[@SpaunnGaming]

It's because 42 is the meaning of life and everything ;)

[@earlycuyler9729]

Ricky has had some serious speech therapy since his radio days.

[@mirlegends]

One of my family members was also convinced that Derren had magic powers and only said otherwise "to throw people off". He was bald as well lol.

[@rclabbotics5413]

Play a record, shall we play a record? Let's play a record What should we play.

[@orth82]

Sadly they stopped doing the radio show a few years back. This recording is from the old Ricky Gervais Show, originally aired in 2001/2002 or thereabouts (sorry, don't have the exact date to hand) on Xfm, which paved the way for the podcasts which they started doing afterwards. If you look you can find many of the episodes in their entirety here on youtube :)

[@jacksargent5251]

As soon as he said think of a number I said 42 in my head then they said 42:0

[@tecnique000]

This is my favourite Karl moment

[@contactkeithstack]

tecnique000 faauulltttyyy tooth

[@fergusbyett8088]

Ricky: Don't open it Also Ricky: Alright then, what is it?

[@jogaukrodger8168]

Happy birthday Karl what a funny guy

[@RottenDoctorGonzo]

Yeah we all thought 42 because of Hitchiker's Guide. Probably 😁

[@auntblaze]

play a record

[@pachacuti1000]

Great thanks for the info!

[@jasonsmith4969]

Will someone please finish the entire catalogue of podcasts into the animated Ricky Gervais Show!!!

[@TheDJMTBizzle]

Forty tooth - brilliant

[@VladSWG]

Pooh Mrs. Arris, Khal actually opened heh lettah. 😞

[@zedooncadhz]

whoa i thought 42 just before they said that

[@JackSmith-ul6dp]

They missed out a lot of the interesting bits. The bit where he drove the bus and ran for mayor.

[@pepperpeterpiperpickled9805]

It said "youve been banned from the mickey mouse club for inappropriate behavour"

[@thatsomeguy147]

42 is the answer to the universe and all things, galaxy guidr thing

[@TheBassHeavy]

PLAY A RECORD

[@DesertArizona]

What the fuck, I was thinking 42

[@samjunger8824]

If i could have a cup of tea with two fellas it would be Karl and Derren Brown

[@elliotoleary7918]

wait a minute! they missed the fact that karl said that he knocked some of that kids teeth out, so that makes it weird that the letter was a dentist appointment!

[@w8m4n]

Oh yeah shit!

[@TheXIIPixel]

Darren Brown's so clever.

[@johnsy1eleven]

Haha crack up!...Poor Mrs Harris tho. missed her check-up and died from an extreme case of gingivitis a few months later! Dead at 42

[@DrDjRj]

Faulty tooth, that made me fuxking laugh! XD

[@har50575]

look on pod cast in the app store

[@Irisplove]

Six Different Ways!

[@Joshatron1205]

no one considered maybe the letter was meant for zoey harris, the girl from karls childhood

[@TheJason434]

Why did they stop?

[@GODHEPME]

Who's the guy constantly breathing into his mic there ?

[@orth82]

pretty sure that's Ricky :D

[@georgerendell1485]

Ricky, he's always doing that :L

[@georgerendell1485]

Yeah he has

[@greenroomservers6636]

+chaoshallnotfall Its creppy as hell. Kind of like a pervy uncle....

[@pachacuti1000]

When was this originally recorded? Are they still doing radio shows? If so when and on what station?

[@maxphillips6249]

Xfm 104.9

[@orth82]

Basically what smokinaces said... they went on to do the podcasts, which are much more well known but, IMHO, not nearly as funny or organic as these great old xfm shows from 12 years back :)

[@PrinceOfDarkness2k7]

Science is a matter of universal truth, while spirituality is a matter of personal truth. I don't think one blocks or limits the other. I don't know which is more important. The problem is when people confuse and mix up one with the other. I've only heard one of Alan Watts' speeches. "What if money were no object" and yes, it is beautiful. Self discovery is important to me, being young and all. My recommendation to you is George Carlin. Maybe not as poetic but his words resonate with me.

[@billytaaffe7035]

tats brill

[@the98themperoroftheholybri33]

What ever happened to Derren Brown? You never see him on anything anymore

[@PrinceOfDarkness2k7]

The only reason we treat these ideas as plausible is because they are. We have a chance of proving them correct or incorrect. If we take a look at some big ideas of most religions, we see that they try to answer pretty much the same questions: "How did we begin, and what happens when we end?" Science has answered both of these questions, but religion still adds that element of paranormal. Science says when you die, your conscious mind stops, it simply stops existing. Religion says it moves.

[@AtomFA]

I was thinking of 42 aswell damnit why is that

[@PrinceOfDarkness2k7]

The double slit experiment has been explained. If you did any amount of research further than a youtube video, you would know that it's a phenomena of quantum physics. Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is the cause. An observer collapses the electrons from a superposition (the kind the analogy of Schrodinger's cat tries to explain) to one single state. Anyway, I'm no expert in all things Quantum. I'm a mere 16 year old British boy who loves the science of the world around him.

[@spderweb]

Side note, as of watching this video, you had 42 videos posted.

[@jacobmortimore]

Omg I thought 42 instantly then they said it

[@natashacomber]

Despite having a head like a fucking orange this man is a genius 'faulty tooth'

I wonder Miss Harris ever did get that "fawlty tooth" checked out

[@anonymousguy1188]

Ok faulty tooth and forty two did seem like a glitch in the matrix.... Also isnt 42 the answer to life, the universe, and everything?

[@s22ad]

Is there something going on that we haven't spotted here..Karl Pilkington, comical genius. Ross Noble, comical genius..both random yet logical, both obsessed with monkies..gets ya thinking, dont it

It is supernatural and paranormal thats the real trick hidden in plain sight! He is not human! O.0

ricky's heavy breathing is a bit distracting

[@rbeck3200tb40]

Derren just subtly mentions numbers, words and names through their conversation then looks for subliminal micro reactions from Karl or any of the people hes doing this trick with.He is very trained to notice these reactions in people . Hes in reality reading their emotions rather than reading their minds

[@johncunningham5145]

I bet he is a great poker player.

[@rbeck3200tb40]

John Cunningham Yes This is a common skill many magicians use I forgot the name of it but it was taught by a famous psychiatrist in the 1800s.

[@alexanderwingeskog758]

Yes, technically ofc "mind reading" is quite impossible so we can rule the "transfer" out... but then again if your face is transmitting the "data" of your mind you would call it mind reading... and normal people does this everyday... we (and even monkeys :-) can actually "read minds" its just that Derren is a lot better at it then most and he have a lot more experience with it as he actually need to be right because it is sort of his job. So any way... I think suggestion is the big part and the reading someones face to get clues of what he/she is thinking is the smaller part. If you combine that with the slight of hand, normal "magic tricks" and a brilliant mind it will be spelled Derren Brown.

[@aleripp6505]

Actually he just gets a glimpse of the note where you write down name and number. Karl's dad was right. Nothing impressive...

[@zizzlemacfizzle324]

@@aleripp6505 Yeah, either that or he uses what's called a "nomad pad"--looks like a regular sketch pad, but actually transmits a copy of whatever you write to the sheet below it, much like carbon paper.

[@PrinceOfDarkness2k7]

You ARE right in thinking there is something odd about the whole thing. Why does an observer cause this change? Is the electron conscious? Well, no, but this whole debate consciousness / other factors is still ongoing and by no means definite. You speak of science like it is bollocks, yet in your last comment you use the phrase "latest scientific research" implying it to be fact. These ideas you mentioned are spiritual hypothesis being investigated scientifically, not quite religion.

[@exodus9320]

Right wtf first number i thought of was 42 nm im socially awkward.
