Jay in the background saying "Eloise Cole is dead" and Colin immediatly laughing his ass off while highway to hell plays is gotta be one of my favorite RLM moments
A bullet list of great things in this episode: *jay's offscreen laughter *the canadians clothing in the fx shots *a stuntman instructional video featuring denim and innuendo *the deathgod el' oeese, harvester of souls
"Eloise Cole" (the clown) became a bereavement specialist after her mother, father, and son died. She herself died in 2005 of lung cancer. Holy shit that's depressing.
***** After consulting my specialist, Google, I found that her dog died almost simultaneously as her mother and a week later, the roof came off of her house. It's like. Fuck. Reading her bio was like flipping through the Killing Joke.
***** My favorite part of her truly sad life story, was that at the same time that her adoptive mother passed away, her dogs died and the roof blew off of her house. Rest in Peace Rainbow.
***** Don't forget that her dog also died, her house roof blew off, one of her other sons was in terrible condition and could die at any time, and all of these events happened around the same time. Then, 5 years later, the other son died. Poor woman.

I had to Google it. I thought he just made that up but good God that's either a nugget of information Rich forgot he had or else legitimate supernatural fuckery.
Also Ishtar kinda got stuck in the underworld because Ereshkigal doesn't like people leaving also ishtar was bare-ass-nude the entire time for some reason
my fav part of this episode is how the educational video about making sure the dog doesn't dominate the house wasn't good enough, but the video in an entirely different language about something extremely outdated was good enough to watch all the way through till the end
Arcilios I'm about to have some Chef Boyardee ravioli, and do you remember when we used to just watch the copy of Ghostbusters we taped off HBO over and over instead of having to watch hackfrauds talk about shitty VHS releases?
I kinda miss when they left tapes on there from episode to episode. The hype around videos that were in there for several episodes made for some hilarious moments (ex: The Shoji Tabuchi Show, Tree Stand Safety)
I'm glad they're sort of doing that again, with stuff like "Shape Up, America!" and everyone hoping they don't land on the nudist colony or orgasmic birth
That could either be interpreted as Mike about to hang himself or that Mike doesn’t have a safety line, so if he falls he will definitely hurt himself, which Rich is fine with 🤔
The aol video is in Cantonese, not Mandarin. And it is aim at people (from Hong Kong, I think it's mainly for Chinese people living in the CA area) that had immigrated to the US (or is currently staying in the US) but do not speak English (and there are a lot of them).
I just read up on the clown lady and she seems like a genuine person who has dealt with some next level shit. And odd video out of context but she literally worked with KIDS in HOSPICE! I can even imagine the stuff she had seen. The mask was a clever way of trying to relate to kids while at the same time reach them. Her primary clients where under the age of 10 and once the children died she would then reach out to the families to help them. She died in the early 2000’s but yeah crazy story her sons both died from what seemed to be birth defects from what I read. Sad story for her but man she used it to help others.
The intensity of working with a child in hospice, knowing they're dying in front of your eyes... and still following up after they pass to continue to provide support. She'd seen things few others had and it helped her be strong enough to support others, absolutely wild.
Yo this lady was a friend of my stepdad. I recall her making visits to the house, actually in clown makeup. My stepdad had also done volunteer work as a hospital clown. Presumably they met in that regard. Looking back, I figure she stopped by between hospitals (hence still being in makeup).
>Eloise was abandoned by her birth parents and adopted into a fascinating but dysfunctional family. She grew up with multiple challenges that tested her ability to survive, both physically and emotionally. > In 1975, Eloise married a young widower named Elwood Cole who had four teenage children. Two of the four, Mark and Dan, had a life threatening neuromuscular disease and were quadriplegic. This new family of six pulled together and became a tight family unit. > Mark, the oldest, managed to live off campus while studying at the local University when he suddenly suffered a cardiac arrest and died. While Mark was very ill, he had been considered the healthiest of the two boys and his death was not expected at that time. > A few months prior to Mark's death, Eloise's father had died. Twenty days following Mark's death, Eloise's mother collapsed and died from an undiagnosed aneurysm. Around the same time, the family dog also died and the roof blew off the house. > From her experience of living through so many tragedies and at the same time knowing that Dan, who was particularly fragile, could die anytime, Eloise composed the poem "Borrowed Hope". > At the time, Eloise was supporting others as a grief counsellor. Her son Dan lived five more years and managed to graduate from the local University. > Eloise became nationally known for her work as a Bereavement Specialist. In the summer of 2005, she was diagnosed with lung cancer and battled with strength and grace for four short months until her death in December 2005. She would often say that although her body had cancer, her spirit did not. www.hospitalclown.com/archives/vol-04/vol-4-1and2/vol4-1_cole-rainbow.PDF source
Anthony Beall that made me feel like shit until the quote: "Around the same time, the family dog also died and the roof blew off the house." Then I was laughing hysterically. Then I again felt like shit
EVERY SINGLE THING about "Rainbow's Remedy" sounds like a creepypasta. A horrifying clown staring at you from the distance and talking about grief, unsettling freeze frames, "death education" on the cover? I'm kind of worried that the RLM crew has found a haunted videotape and is going to be found strangled with balloon animals a few days after uploading this.
Roy Unit Actually, someone who was a prop maker made RLM a package for a Miskatonic Expedition, known as the Demon Grief Clown. I don’t know if they got it or not, because I’ve been trying to find where they get fanmail like this. @RedLetterMedia, did you get a package from Miskatonic University?
I'm really surprised no one has commented on the brutal beat down Jay gives Rich for seemingly no reason 14 minutes into the video. It's frankly disturbing material, and completely uncalled for. What's more, it seems to be an unprovoked assault. Rest assured that the authorities have been informed and linked to the clip in question, and I'm sure Jay will get what he deserves for such a brutal onslaught. The Canadians who stood by and simply witnessed the act better beware too, but they might get away with it being outside US jurisprudence.
Well, the Canadians are a peaceful and mushy people. They feared of interference partially because they were in a foreign land and partially because their culture is not one of violence.
hls Rejecktd Do you really believe anyone could afford Rich Evans in a gay porno? Bezos would blush at his rates. Clearly Jay just snapped, god only knows what set him off. Likely felt his hair gel give a little.
Samuel Alaster Erm...No, we don't. I can assure you that 95% of Londoners call it "Big Ben", meaning the whole tower despite about half of us knowing (of course) that it's the bell.
Sorry y’all but it is a bit intolerant. Not saying Rich has anything against Asians, I just think he made a bad joke... which btw those jokes have been played out for decades. It’s more offending to my sense of humor than my Japanese heritage.
Imagine someone receiving Rich's message and thinking to themselves "Shit, man. I can't speak Chinese." And so they go to the trouble of finding someone who does that can translate the message for them, only to be told "Uh, this isn't Chinese, dude. This is just someone being an asshole."
They saved it because they were amazed they got a call from the biggest star in all Asian countries, Rich Evans. They knew immediately who it was, "Dees issa Lich Evans! He'sa vely bigga sta'! I wassa going to a hanga myself in folest like Davida Calladine but Licha Evans saveda my rife a today!"
***** Everytime a kid gets an Aquarium for Christmas. A Clown joins the legion of the dead. Ya, that's right Eloise you did it. Come float in the Aquarium Clarence!!! Its warm in hear............................
***** That could be said about anyone, but not everyone is also a clown. If you can't laugh at clowns WHO CAN you laugh at, I ask you? I'm sure she was a wonderful lady (I read up on her too), but that doesn't excuse her scary clown video OR... wait. No it's just the clown video...
+SirJamesDTech I'd like to see Jeremy Clarkson host a haunted places show. "The Tower of London. With a history of torture and execution going back over 900 years, the Tower of London is regarded by many as one of the most haunted places... in the world."
I guess Rita "Eloise" Cole passed away in 2005 (Arizona). She worked with funeral homes and a Catholic society for helping grieving families, especially children. Her obituary is online, it's all in there. Kind of sad, but she won a bunch of important sounding awards for her work.
+Odin's Playground Here's the thing, though - is it really disrespectful to laugh at a clown's death? I mean, if clowns spend their whole lives trying to make people laugh and be happy, and their death actually manages to make a few people chuckle and get through the day a bit easier... then didn't they die doing what they loved? And isn't that pretty much what we all want more than anything in the world? God bless ya, Eloise. You may have been creepy as Hell but you were a good soul.
@@sean1024 indeed this is true. When I visited Canada two years ago, it was startling when my steering wheel reversed upon crossing the border. However I got used to it after the first accident.
Eloise Cole sounds like a vilian on an old courage the cowardly dog episode. she just shows up at the farm one day and courage has to save Muriel from her and Eustace gets trapped instead by the end
***** I like him but it annoys the crap out of me whenever he wants to say something he makes it into a huge production instead of just saying what he wants to say.
E'loizkol.............ascend from the depths and favor your followers with 1000 years of darkness. Oh dark goddess of death, embrace us with your pain.....
One of my favorite moments of this episode has always been 37:44 Boy: "It was my dad who died, and he died six years ago" Colin: "What?" Mike: "His grandpa died six days ago"
When they said "hooked a baby up to an aquarium" I thought they must mean one of the pediatric incubators they use especially for premature babies. Nope!
ZomifiedHam COME JOIN US IN THE TURTLE WATER BILLY!!! WE ALL FLOAT DOWN HERE!!! The aquarium IS WARM!!!! Hide the pain in the Aquarium!! Don't laugh at the pain!!
According to auto generated Closed Captions this is what Rich said on the phone: Sunday I told how are you I went on my knee my hoo-ha come on I want to watch in my America Online hi I won't jump I got my leg on my Baba great food I jump my Elmo hold my gosh you got hunger pay your wife pinch up hold your mama while I think about my water bottle how much you look on this bar fresh mom
I love that Jim is always so stoic... and the things that get him to eventually crack up are homoerotic innuendo and hooking dying infants up to aquariums.
Mike and especially Rich made it into an art form. Troll 2 kid is the Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina of saying OH MY GAAAAAAAHD. Mike is Johann Sebastian Bach. Rich is Ludwig van Beethoven. JonTron is... Schoenberg or something? Shostakovich?
I normally don't comment on videos, but I've gotta say that I've been going through some very rough times emotionally and watching this episode of Wheel of the Worst made me laugh hysterically, which is something I haven't done in weeks. Thank you so much for bringing me something I really needed right now. Please keep making videos, particularly more episodes of Wheel of the Worst.
Rich Evans is the funniest dirtbag on the internet. Whatever you are paying him, Red Letter Media it's not enough...or maybe it's too much. I don't know. I'm drunk.
And when history students in the future are asked to look back, reflect on World War 3, and ponder how our relationship with Canada could have gone sour so quickly, their teachers will be able to point to the almost systematic torture of two unfortunate Canadians over the course of this series of videos.
@@michaeldion4855 Thanks for reminding me. On the plus side, I can watch an episode of BotW, and my dementia makes me forget a week later. Then I can watch it again, and it's like it's brand new!
28:57 I know, they don't read the comments. Especially on a video from three years ago, but... There is one reason you would practice this particular stunt, and you have seen this come up in action movies, you just don't think about it. Our hero getting his ass kicked ends up falling down, trying to catch his breath, he get's attacked when he's already on his hands and knees trying to pull himself together. Though it's still fucking hysterical.
RedLetterMedia in a nutshell: "It's hilarious that someone hooked a seven-week-old, preemie baby to a fish tank to try to keep it alive. That's funny, yes... but it's not funnier than, like, a hack, Hollywood stuntman trying to have sex with men."
Hey everybody hear the news? Gather round to hear about a guy named Butcher Randall! He just blew into this town and he's choppin' on all the (men's) meats! He's hackin he's whackin he's smackin, hack, whack, choppin' that meat! All you (ladies) better watch your (husbands) cuz (Randall) don't care whose meat he chops! (Seriously though that stunter guy really should've showed some stunts with the lady. Now she won't know how to do it, and hte next movie she's in, she'll up and castrate somebody with her pointy shin)
