Picket Sign-Making | Louis Theroux | BBC Studios 

I think that "newsflash, brainiac" bit might be the most directly confrontational I've ever seen Louis being in any of these haha.

Louis got HOT when he found the sign of the Princess of Wales. 😂

I think this is the only Louis Theroux clip I have came across where Louis actually showed his anger

"News flash brainiac, Christ WAS Jewish" HAHAHAHAAHAHHA oh Louie.

I love how he says “I WAS a genius.” Meaning he is now no longer a genius.

They are literally like South Park characters.

I doubt that he was ever really smart before joining that church.

To be fair their arts and crafts skills are on point.

"Actually there's plenty of logic in that" Louis' smile is priceless!

Graphic design really is his passion

I don't know why these guys hate cigarettes so bad.

love how the guy says ''I was a genius'' talking about before he came there. ''was''.

"news flash brainiac" ahaha 3:12

He's like the warped photographer on Apocalypse Now...went to far up the river.

Anyone who says "I was a genius" is no genius...

He just seems so hurt by these, especially Diana’s sign. That’s the most powerful emotion I’ve seen felt towards these idiots.

I could imagine how pissed Louis and the camera crew were when they see the sign for Princess Diana. Since you know, British people.

Gramps is roasting in hell now 🙏🏻

Aren't the people who are not born into these kinds of families just so happy!

I'm not deeply religious, but anyone who spreads hatred and is extremely offensive towards others shouldn't be allowed call themselves a religion.

I can't help but laugh at their logic. The swedish vacuum place cracks me up

Louis: "There's no logic here!" Ain't that the truth!

Princess Diana Sign was just 🤯

quote 'they worship that which they desire and what makes them feel good' 'one who sits in a glass house shall not cast stones'

"Newsflash braniac Jesus was a jew" 😂😂😂

"When we hate someone, we hate something in them that is also in us. What isn’t in us doesn't disturb us." - Hermann Hesse

They are really against smoking. Good on them.

if he was a genius, then what is he now?

"I embraced the philosophy of libertarianism" like pottery

“I was a genius” okay mate 😂

Desmond tutu 😂

"I was a genius."

Don't send Steve to do a documentary on flat earthers. He'll become one of them.

I cannot wrap my head around people can get so engrossed in and become slaves to an old book

Interesting how the guy mentions libertarianism; how he was the 'smartest man in the world' 'a genius' some what acknowledging that he was smarter during that period yet still fails to see the dramatic turn of views he's undertaken. I think this is just a clear example of the ridiculousness of these people.

Louis Theroux trolled these people expertly! I laughed so hard I cried during some of his exchanges with them during this documentary. They were too simple to figure it out. 🤣🤣

"Thank God for 9/11" 2:17 WTH?

And all these years later, Steve and his family have been expelled from the church. 😂😂😂

I wished Louis didn’t cut him off, I really wanted to hear why he hated Princess Diana.

"At the end of the day. Its the only thing im really glad I did" There's a lot of insecurity in that line. Not glad having children, being married, but joining this sick church. And forcing his fam with him.

This is one of the craziest things I've seen.

I never got the whole blaming Jewish people for Jesus death...wasn’t he meant to be killed for the resurrection and what that represents

Shirley Phelps had two kids out of wedlock, but when asked about it, she basically said, so what, that doesn't apply to me. I can just repent and be fine. But one of the daughters is living with a man? And same when asked about her kids, the answer was, "Bye." So they have hypocritical standards for themselves vs. their kids. They have actually said they don't love their kids that have left the church. They're disgusting.

"jesus was jewish" "No the jews killed jesus" "No the romans killed and crucified jesus" "yea but look at our signs"

I watched this a few years ago and I've forgotten a lot of it. Did Louis ever discuss their finances. Because with Christianity in the US there is almost always a scam going on somewhere.

This is just unbelievable...

1:24 Rest in peace

Not gonna like, some of these posters look like pretty awesome punk rock concert flyers or album covers.

Steve - As part of his service to the church he had to do Gramps until he got cramps 😁

I just love Louis. I would love to spend some time with him

How south park never did an episode about them is crazy

The news flash brainiac sent me 😂😂

Steve drain arches his back for god

2:22 look at Louis face😂 a mixture of confusion and disgust

He sounds just like John C Reilly

awesome no nonsense Louie

I’ve been sucked into louis clips

I love that expression "split hell wide open"

Honestly it’s really sad how people’s good intentions can be expressed in such hateful ways. I mean this man honestly believes he’s helping these people by warning them of their sinful misguided ways. Boy can we be crazy sometimes

Well it didn't work out for you too well 'Ol Stevie!!! Looks like he got kicked out of the church last year, and got the boot. Karma is a bitch and he had it coming in spades. I read his daughter Lauren's book and it was heartbreaking the abuse he put his kids, and wife through. He got off on the power, and control he had in this group, and I think his ultimate goal was to take Fred Phelps position when he died, because of his drive for power. You can see it in his eyes the sickness he is under. I don't know exactly why they kicked him out yet, but I do know that they also exonerated Fred Phelps as well right before he passed away as he started to get soft before he died, and started being nice to the neighbors who ran the Equality House and they did not like that, so they ultimately got rid of him too. It is a crazy, heartbreaking story, and it's great that they no longer have the power they once had.

I think we found the most dense subject in the universe

These people give Bad rep for christians. Funny thing is they are so twisted in their biblical knowledge. They follow their preacher and leader instead of following the bible and what God teaches. They give these short verses from the bible to defend their point completely ignoring the context in which they are to be understood. I doubt any of these “followers” actually follow the teachings of the bible, instead they do what their church tells them to.

cant trust a man who thinks those sunglasses and cargo pants are fashionable

he gave louis a hint at one moment that this is all business. i wonder if he got it.

I would like to see him saying that Lady Diana BS in front of a pub somewhere in rural England on a saturday evening. XD

It's just sad that they feel this way and what they are doing is wrong obviously everyone is awolled there opinions but the way they are expressing themselves is wrong and it's cruel picketing at soldiers or anyone funerals is very disrespectful and it's emotional abuse

I heard Steve Drain and his family got kicked out of the group

Those were good quality signs tho ngl

Wonderful signs.

this is so ludicrous it hilarious

Would love to see what these people are doing now

Steve was recently kicked out and now lives in Mississippi!

It's scary how these pickets signs have become similar to politically charged tweets. WBC isn't as ridiculous as what people online are posting these days.

He's better graphic artist than Mr brain wash and banksy. He's nuts tho 😎

What exactly do they have against the Film Actors Guild?

@Fischerspoonraff HAHAHAH i laughed soo hard at that!!!!

He should have let that guy talk more in regards to his actual views on the celebs mentioned in the placards

1:44 "WAS" NOT ANYMOREEEEEEEE!

Steve drain definitely greases poles at the mens bathhouse on slow sunday evenings.

As a gay person these people are obsessed with my sexuality omg get a new hobby ..

did i just read thank god for 9/11? what the....

Gramps was just as crazy as shit.

Noooo I really wanted to hear what he had to say about Dianna

This is Ch. 5 News BBC version

So...guess he got excommunicated.

Out of all the sins mentioned in the Bible, why are they so fixated on that one sin?

There definitely isn't any logic. There definitely isn't any hope for humanity with people like this spreading hate.

Louis must have been really pissed off to say that "newsflash braniac" line. I can see why he tries not to be confrontational or edits that out though, because it comes off as unprofessional.

In summary, a bunch of miserable people who want others to feel a worse misery.

I bet this dude is having a hay day today in 2023😭😂😭😂

0:28 How the fuck did that happen?

@feckingbillgates The guy converting himself to this rediculous "church." I can understand kids raised to hate people but some guy coming from the outside thinknig this is a good idea.....just amazes me.

They're the greatest trolls in the USA

Apparently Steve has been kicked out of the church

Some of these are kind of random!

I miss gramps 😢

Those signs are the true creation of nightmares! Blatant hate, evil, and overt disgust....made by simple children who don't know better. The WBC is truly evil and the work of the devil himself.

And they say Muricans aren't aware of irony! This is hilarious!!!

Classic

I would just like to point out it wasn't the Jews that crucified Jesus explain the role of enzymes in pontius Pilate
