As i sit watching this 4 minute clip my eyes are streaming, there are many comedians who seem to have gone down the same path of story telling but no one can do it like Billy, absolute legend 👏 👏👏👏👏
ONLY Billy Connoly could have made this joke so funny. It was a miracle he and no one else was right on the spot to witness what he describes. In a First Class cabin because this is a first class joke.
Got into a service lift at an international airport when I was doing some work there with a trolley of tools and bits! A young sweetheart departed the lift with a huge smile and nod as I pushed my gear in, when the door closed my god, what had that girl been eating!😅
God bless you Billy. My dream was to go on holiday for a week or two, find a cottage in Scotland, with my little Jack Russell. Go in winter, a walking holiday. Go walking, find a pub in the middle on nowhere. It would be snowing or at the very least raining. We would go in, a roaring fire, there we would find Billy, entertaining people, by just talking, telling stories. If heaven exists, it would be just like that. God bless you Billy.
I remember when my parents used to watch this guy 40 years ago. We even had tapes (the old tdk). I must have been 5 or 6 so I got used to listening and watching thr 'The Big Yin' To this day I've never seen a funnier guy. Billy will always have a place in my heart. Love him
Billy Connolly one of the greatest comedians ever always great entertainment from him !! an evening in his company must be fantastic a very very very funny man 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
So fucking funny as usual, wonder where he wandered off & came back to it 2 hours later when everybody has forgotten the joke/story he was telling in the 1st place (he is the master of that art) :- )
This has to be my alltime favorite Billy Connolly joke! I saw his standup live, and when I heard him do this joke, I damned near pissed myself laughing! To the point I couldn't breathe!!!
Same here. It's a testament to his amazing storytelling ability that of all the fart stories I've heard over the years this one I could remember almost word for word.
The bit where he says about Errol Flynn jumping at the sail with a knife is Billy en pointe. He sets the image in your head before filling in the gaps. You know what he's going to say before he gets there, but he teases you with visuals and pantomime and when it finally comes it's just pure magic.
Haha love how it's on the way to Australia. Great being from a Country where we love laughing at ourselves. Thanks Billy for that one. He mentioned Errol Flynn to make up for it.😂
LOL Is that ever true. My family is from Scotland...we're fucking hilarious. The witty comebacks come out like crazy lol. Get my brothers together and you'll be crying with laughter. One time, my brothers were travelling to deliver some products by Transport truck for our company. Our family ALWAYS had a thing for Tim Horton's and if you live in Canada or are familiar with the Company, you'd know why (For anyone who doesn't know, it's like Dunkin' Donuts of Canada). My oldest brother thought it would be hilarious to take an empty doughnut box and take a shit in it and surprise our other brother with it lol. So he got back to the truck with the "doughnut box" and said, "I left one for ya" lol did Zack ever get a surprise. Of course, not everyone would find that funny, but I was 10 years old and when they came back and told me that, I almost died in laughter lol
I'm not normally amused by toilet humour but that just made me laugh so hard I nearly coughed up a lung. Especially his rendition of the fart noise. Sweet Jesus.
Being Scottish I’m lucky enough to have seen Billy live quite a few times. For something hysterical listen to The Crucifixion. You will be offended but you won’t care you will be crying so much with laughter.
The funniest comedian ever born and ever will be. Let's all hope his strength gets him through his poor health. If you ever need to be happy, watch The Big Yin. A legend whom is adored by many but all of Scotland xxx Love you big man xx
I flew from Australia to Warsaw a long time ago. Almost a two day journey on our cheap around the world tickets. Last leg was Frankfurt in Germany to Warsaw. There was a strong smell of "sewage" at our seat as we boarded. Even the hostie was turning up her nose. Turned out we were sitting next to the "farting yank". Sheer exhaustion made me fall asleep. The smell assailed my nostrils again mid flight and I reactively woke from slumber swinging a punch at the guy. Luckily my wife was in the middle seat and was watching, she deflected the blow. Billy's story brought this memory back so vividly. So disgusting and yet so funny.
