I saw this live…”WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!!!??! I AM!!!!” was the most used phrase by my friends and I for a few months. What an absolute epic quote haha
@@Jqnxxed I think he was trying to say "Who do you think I am?" all along, but he got mixed up and said "...you are?" Then he corrected himself at the end. [EDIT: Actually the other replies make more sense now that I think about it.]
This is officially 12 years old and I remember it like it was yesterday. I just happened to turn on bowling and I gotta say that for my first U.S Open experience, I picked the best time to watch it. One of the greatest moments you’ll ever see. Pete Weber is a bowling legend!
My daughter’s favorite bowler due to legendary moments like this, but he took his time last night to give her and her team advice and is an absolute class act. Best of all time.
The explanation to this makes it even better, there was a kid in the crowd rooting against Weber which was pissing him off, so this angry outburst was actually aimed at a child
The thing that makes his quote, so amazing, is that as you get older, you realize that traditional reading and writing is just a technicality on genius. We only use it so that we can be able to read what someone else has left behind in terms of the point they were trying to make. In LIVE moments like this? Saying who do you think you are, I am, perfectly captures exactly what he was feeling and you understood it the moment you heard it.
It’s not fucking ADD. I’m thinking. I’m thinking about things that are more interesting than you. I’m trying to build the perfect utopian society in my head and you’re talking to me about what? Fucking bowling? I don’t give a shit. -Doug Stanhope Thanks for reminding me of this!
He is the culmination of every single entity in this universe, and all of the alternate versions of those beings. He is the ultimate YOU, interacting with us beings in this lower dimension, He is literally us and there is absolutely nothing any of us can do, whatever we think we are, he is.
I used to watch Pro Bowling every Saturday and on Sunday’s. This Man is a Legend just like His Father Dick Weber. What these two Professionals accomplished in their lives, help make Bowling even Greater!! Love Them Both!!
My favorite part is that ever so slight pause after he says "I AM" there's a split second look in his face like... Wtf did i just say?? Then he's like a little upset with himself and he's internally thinking "get it right" to HIMSELF. But he says it out loud... And what we have here is one of the most complex and brilliant quotes in the history of mankind. It's open to so many interpretations. GENIUS 🤣🤣
Stewart Miley ya I understand that I'm just saying show some respect he's my idol I'm sure u don't like when people disrespect ur idol...so just keep it mouth shut and let me believe what I believe
*Morgan Freeman speaking* “It was on that very day, ohhh that very day, Pete Weber found his vindication, and everyone knew, instantly, who they thought were, indeed they were not... and that Pete Weber, well he was.”
My cover band got to go north once to Open for Travis Tritt at a festival, a childhood hero of mine. It was fun, But so much pressure and nervousness throughout the show. The crowd stood and clapped as we finished. And I held up my fist and screamed this. I hope everybody just once in their life, as a moment like this.
Yeah but at the end of the day, he is the only man on the face of the planet that when he looks in the mirror, he sees Chuck Norris looking at him while looking at Chuck Norris in another mirror.
Dawg not gonna lie I’m a huge sports fan mostly football and basketball but this gotta be one of the coldest moments in sports. Shit gave me chills and it’s bowling😂😂that’s like hitting a buzzer beater game 7 or a walk off HR. I didn’t even notice how close the game was he needed that strike Pete is clutch
"I AM THAT I AM" - God. "I think, therefore I am." - Descartes. "I am Sam. Sam I am." - Dr. Seuss. "Who do you think you are I am." - Pete Weber. Future A, B, C, and D options to answer an SAT question. What that question is, I do not know.
@@monolithgeometry3221 If you knew the clip the child doesn't even do anything, the commentators couldn't even pinpoint who tf he was talking about and he complained for a long long time.
@@thundergun933 the us open is a hard tournament to score on. The oil pattern is put in a way where you have no hold if you miss inside, and will rarely comeback if you miss outside. 215 is a good score considering the circumstances
@@JohnAC4 what a strange thing to do. You think if they wanted to make it more difficult they'd restrict the weight of the ball or increase the length of the lanes. You know something actually tangible. That be like keeping the shot and discus the sane weight in the Olympics but when you go to throw there's a bunch of angry hornets they release beside you.
He was right Pete was a lot of things to a lot of people but love him or hate him you watched & when he was at the top of his game man was he something to watch... he was one of the greatest & no one can take that away from him...
Exactly what I do when I accomplish something Great. I Love it. This only resonates with people who have been looked past and disrespected by the masses.
"YES! GODDAMNIT! YES! THAT IS RIGHT! I DID IT! I'M NUMBER FIVE! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? THAT'S RIGHT! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? I AM! DAMNIT RIGHT! " - Pete Weber
@@jiafeiskinnyproducts Caleb Walker Also this was to win one more championship than his dad won. His dad always wanted him to surpass him in the sport and unfortunately he died before this happened. This win came after he declined sharply following his dad's death and hadn't won in a while
Definitely in the hall of fame of amazing sports clips. This and “I can’t spake” (both the original rugby league version and the darts homage) are my favourites.
