Got to respect him for allowing the audience to engage with him. Not many comedians would allow that but, if anything, it demonstrates how intelligent and fast witted he is.
@@FistandFootMartialArts yeah hes an entertainer if he can't think a new comeback you want him to just sit there? he does standup not improv its still pretty impressive I have basically no respect for him as a person he seems like a bit of a tit in podcasts and interviews but hes without a doubt a talented and quick wittted comedian idk what you're expecting
It’s very clever because it’s the best way to knock any disruptive hecklers? He manages that side of it so well and includes it. His genius is, and you’re spot on, that he’s really quick witted.
@@TheSighphiguy this isnt new, almost all have to start from the bottom and if they cant handle heckles then they probably wont make it anywhere. That is pretty much tradition
Went see him once , he asked the audience if they had any problems he could help them with...The guy right infront if me shouted " IM GINGER " the whole place erupted...😂😂
I am dutch, sorry for that. But it is my excuse which i am going to use here. I do not understand the joke. I know, it is on me, i am not fully educated to understand or use the English language. But i am trying my best. I do not see a problem here. If i was Jimmy, i would have responded with something like: Ever heard of hair color? Or better: Have a shave.... bald is the way to go. (yeah, i do understand the joke. It was a joke.. )
I went to see him a few years ago he made the effort to stay after the show for a brief meet and greet and autograph and didnt charge extra not alot of people do that. What a legend
You can't offend him when he's on stage. Some comics get a heckle and it's like they want to "win," like it's an internet argument or something-they even post it online to their RU-vid with some caption like "Savage Comedian Owns a Heckler!!" Jimmy's finding the joke. He just wants to make people laugh even if that means he looks like a twat. There's no malice in his words or his act. And with that wit of his, I love his crowdwork. I liked this, too, because a lot of what he said did genuinely feel like it was from the heart and it was Jimmy talking to the audience for parts of it rather than his stage persona.
I admire the bravery Jimmy takes to include the audience like this. It is inviting chaos to your set and thinking you can navigate out of it with improv
I do open mic standup and I live for hecklers. I go somewhere in my head. It hits a chord in me. I eat em alive. Usually I get a laugh. Crowdwork is my jam.
I've done standup quite a few times now but I'd love to have a go at this kind of comedy like Jimmy Carr & Al Murray do where they bring in that audience interaction, even if it goes horribly wrong I think it'd be an interesting experience
@@jonthenamelessproject99 it's high risk, but it's a rush. Do it right, you seem prescient. Do it wrong and you're just an idiot with a microphone. I've been both.
He seemlessly integrates comedy in to a conversation with an entire audience. Everyone loves what he says so much that they actually quiet down for his response instead of continuously going off. Man's perfected his art.
The best thing about going to see Jimmy live is that his extensive audience involvement is not rehearsed and if you want to you might be able to participate. That makes him unique among comedians
@@ThursoBerwickWhat do you mean scripted?? Of course he WROTE the parts, but to actually use them in a stand up show on the fly takes a high level of skill and to write these parts and deliver them the way he does can’t be easy. I’d love to see your stand up show
The interview with Jimmy on Diary of a CEO was very interesting. He was surprisingly likeable and very intelligent with very broad knowledge of many topics and great insight. His humour is right on the edge though.
@jayhop probably advice that edgy jokes are great but punching up is funnier than punching down and laughing with is funnier than laughing at. He got it wrong more often a decade ago than he does now. Ditto with Frankie Boyle, though he holds himself back a bit too much these days aka "didn't get the right amount of feedback" lol
I respect this guy for not picking on his audience and makes bad fun of them in a humiliating but gives them the opportunity to get them involved. It's impressive when an audience wins an exchange and the comedian doesn't get embarrassed but rewards it! This was a fun watch.
Iam from switzerland and sometimes i have some trouble to understand the british stuff but i really like the radical open humor. Its getting lost everywhere but not here. Also It's just so interesting how jimmy is such a wonderful human beeing if you see podcasts of him where he is not acting. Truely someone special. I hope to see you live once too :)
What a supremely weird comment... Literally doesn't make any sense... - I think you may have been better served by saying "I don't know a lot of comedians, but I like Jimmy"...
@@mcbrite What's weird is yours and other's use of the word literally, and your overuse of ellipses. Comedy is subjective. Just because someone is a comedian doesn't make them funny automatically. Your comment is daft.
"You only sat down front because you walked toward the light." That killed me. Jimmy, Mark Normand, and Sam Morril are my favorites and they all have the guts and the wits to engage the audience to brilliant effect.
Growing up in england i have watched this guy blossom into a great comedian. Cant say that i never had my doubts about him back in the day, especially with shows like "your face or mine" (think that was what it was called) Think i may go see this new show of his tbh.
Your comment exhibits the extreme narcissism of humans - that you think humans can irreparably "harm" this planet is laughable. This planet will survive, whatever that means, loooong after we've been absorbed into the flora and fauna.
Jimmy Carr i think is the most offensive, edgy and shocking comedian i have ever seen, i love the jokes and can't wait for the next video! the way hecklers are delt with is also great and i wish more comedians would follow this example
I cannot imagine this guy before he got started... Imagine sitting around with your boys smoking a reefer and then he starts talking... damn - incapacitated - no school that day... LMAO - I hope you make a zillion bucks, Jimmy - you deserve it from the laughter you spread.
Big fan of Jimmy, but……. Having seen him live a number of times, i’d choose (if i had the choice) to go for a show he’s recording. The ones I’ve been to where he’s not, he’s “phoned it in”…
