"BEHOLD IM STORM DESMOND, this is my friend windy Dave" gets me everytime hahahahaha
Stormy Daniels 😂
Gotta love these reporters who make unnecessary journeys to stand in the wind and rain and tell us not to make unnecessary journeys ...
It cut too soon nooo
Never a bad day when Russ uploads.
Amen to that
Agreed
It is bad when you realise it's an old clip he's reused.
You mean reuploads.
Gets me through all the other things
‘Who is going for a swim in the middle of a hurricane?’ ‘Americans.’ 😆😆
Aaah they were also the ones requiring warnings on their takeout coffee cups to be careful of the HOT water inside…
And the people who get caught in the hurricane’s surge and flooding.
actualy we got 3 very famous actors oliver reed ,richerd harris and and peter o tool .skiped out on paying a bill by pretending to go swimmming during a storm in brighton .years later peter was rebooked the the hotel and the staff told him they thought he was dead.when he came to check in.
More specifically, Floridians.
Remember how they also had to be warned not to SHOOT at the shagging storm? 😂
Even when we know it’s gonna be a compilation of repeats that have already been repeated, we can’t help immediately clicking…you’ve got us under your charming thumb, mate!!!
Nightmare
You can make fun of Cockermouth, but there is a good reason for the name. It's at the end - the mouth - of the river Cocker.
Still an h missing 🤷♂️
I just sat down with me nan and she heard Russell's voice and she responds "Is that RUSS RUSS off the tele?" So I'm like "Yeah nan, he's funny aint he" So she responded with "Awh, I love seeing my wogeye on tele, he makes me so happy" 😆
Please bring Russell Howard Hour back, we need it to get us through the remainder of this shitshow
Seconded
He has been cancelled as he is toxic and subversive.
how? hes just speaking the truth, show me proof hes toxic and subversive? being not fascist and being supportive of lgbt+ people isnt toxic and subversive@@SuperSupasi
@@jacksonmacmanus1001 you know nothing! I take it you took the covid vaccination?
@@jacksonmacmanus1001Oh he’s an ally as well?! Oh my god he’s my new favourite comedian!
Since they ran out of "normal" names for storms a couple of years ago, I'm just waiting for Storm "Slartibartfast" to hit...
YESSSSSS
Nice 👏
Stormy McStormFace
Sorry, but if we get as far as "S" this year, it'll be Storm Stuart. The names are picked in advance for each "season" - which is from September 23 through to the end of October 24, and used alphabetically (except for Q, U, X, Y, Z). The Met Office will probably ask for suggestions after that though, so you could try it! (Desmond was 2016, BTW.)
Don't ask...
you got to hand it too whoever named that village, classic British humour right there
It's at the mouth of the River Cocker, which is named from a Celtic word meaning crooked/bent.
Russel! Russel.... hahahah, to everyone here and to you Russel, much love from me all the way down here in Australia. I watch what the tories are doinf to you guys there and the rage is breath taking, i do not envy you, but we are dealing with the choice of one who is a smidge better than the other, just like the US. I love you all and the world is way better with you all in it! kiss kiss
Can I come to you're country? U.K. is failing apart! Were being invaded!
The reporter sent out in the weather while the equipment gets protected reminds me of one year when my son played baseball in early spring. At one tournament it was 39 degrees with lite rain but the boys were expected to play. After half a day they canceled the remaining games because it was so cold that the composite bats were in danger having the inside shatter. Forget the kids who were so cold at the end of the game they couldn’t hold onto the bat they don’t matter but don’t put the equipment at risk. We got out of that league as soon as we could.
Aaaaw, that donkey was adorable!
Just Brilliant!. 🙌😂 You have got to Love the UK Sense of Humour. 😂❤️
As someone from the Gulf Coast up by the panhandle of Florida, we don't normally get a lot of big waves so Hurricanes are about the only time we get any "real" surf the likes you'd get out on an island. My guy, you would be amazed at the number of people who are out and about before a storm trying to experience that thrill, and they aren't going to go in until the tide recedes. Also, you need to get invited to a Hurricane Party, STAT. Hours are long, the drinks are shit, but the times will be good.
Louisiana hurricane parties have good drinks! And gumbo!
@@reptoidrenaissance Honestly, after the third drink, you don't really taste them.
Top notch,Russel. You never fail to make me laugh.
The great British public always make the NZ members laugh in even the bleakest of days!
It was Florida, so there's at least one idiot who will think, "Hurricane, just about the right time for a swim!"
I was thinking the same yesterday.. 70mph winds, might go for a skydive.. 🤔😂
Well, you always wanted to travel. 😉
Love me a bit of Russell. He always makes me laugh
As always Russell you are very funny Now to be serious Love and blessings to everyone in Briton we love you💖❤
The "I'm all right; I just can't stand up" guy is Jim Cantore: he's the boss, so if he's out in a hurricane, he put himself there. It's his "thing." There are idiots who go out and surf the hurricane waves in Florida. Some of them survive.
We have surfers of the same ilk in Brighton. Hardy souls, I met two the day I was being sent home from hospital, a year ago. They thought it was a great idea to try and surf though the pier's boat gap. Ending up wrapped around one of the the stanchions, worse road rash than a t-shirt wearing biker.
@@capt.bart.roberts4975 there are cowboys everywhere....
awwww you've got to Love the legend that was Bill - R.I.P. sir
Yay!! Just what I needed this f’ed up Monday!!!
Have to say, that as an old (ish) man, the young (ish)man who is Russell Howard is one of the few public figures who gives me hope for the future.
Who shoots guns at hurricanes? Americans...News anchors routinely remind Floridians that discharging firearms has no effect on storms, and that ammo is expensive.
😳 I hope it's just because of frustration.... (??!?)
Makes you realize that Storm Desmond and Windy Dave would be excellent crimefighters since bullets don't affect them
"The prime minister came to see the damage himself" Have they not seen enough 😀
God I wish you would get back on telly absolutely awesome
Currently tending, well done.
Thank you for making me laugh ❤
love this
Russell Howard is the best😂
More than fitting u uploaded this today after most of Ireland is in blackouts
Love your content
At 2:29, “DON’T SWIM IN THE SEA!!!!!!!!!! DON’T GO HANG-GLIDING!!!!!!!!!! TELL MY FAMILY I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!” She’s like something out of Game of Thrones! And at 2:41, “SAVE YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WINTER IS FECKING COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stop sign intensifies
Cant wait for some new material
We need a new series
I’ve not laughed this hard in a long time!
2:48 as i was watching this thunder storms came lolxxxxx
Genius!
This was a good video😊😊.
His pronunciation of it was wrong southerner here who moved there and I keep getting corrected 😂😂
unlubed condoms are actually a pretty common piece of audio equipment. I work in a theater and we use them to protect mic packs from actor's sweat.
I wish you would tour the USA and visit Phoenix Az. You would get a packed show
Old Russel 😂 🙌
Weather in Lanzarote is great right now
Here in Mauritius they put out the same warning when there's a cyclone..."swimming is not advised"....
Rus: all were missing is the ground opening up Iceland: Oh, really?
🤣🤣🤣
The condom was to protect the microphone. I wonder what they were going to do with that microphone.😮
Top it getting wet and the electrics dying I suppose..
The UK's not having a good time right now lol
The first cyclone I experienced was called Joy and hit Christmas Day …
As an America...I mean....In Florida, their governor wears heeled boots. Is a disaster himself. Even with out the storms its still a sh^t storm.
High heels? In front of CHILDREN? /S.
My favourite superhero is Storm Desmond
"But you're still coming at work, right?"
I agree the storm names can make them seem silly. Maybe we should name them after scary Mesopotamian gods or something
Boom Town!!
This isn't related to this video, but your appearance on AM in New Zealand. In it you mentioned Lollypop men and that the US doesn't have them, and we most certainly do. They are called crossing guards here in the US. if you drive through my town at the beginning or end of the school day you will see them at every intersection that does not have traffic lights and is on a heavily used path to for from school. Bigger cities may not have them anymore because of the over abundance of traffic signals, but smaller communities do that is for sure. Just a bit of information.
condoms are a common way to water proof microphones.
That was a good 😂
If they stop building new estates and useless motorways, digging up trees and natural hills they wouldn't get flooding like this..
They just were silly enough to build on a flood plain. Too near a river. Should be farming on the land not houses.
Soggy biscuit 😂😂😂😂😂
That’s a happy donkey. (Never thought I’d write that on KZhead).
Hurricane winds start blowing people will go out and surf and start having hurricane parties. We're crazy Americans. 🤪
Jim cantoreee very respected journalist 😂😂😂
💙
Shout out to Animal Haven Ireland for rescuing the donkey ❤
"soggy biscuit"trivia Little bit of recent history.... A few years back....the river Carr flooded. The main supermarkets were supplied primarily by Carrs of Carlisle (look them up) ....the result being that supply chain was broken for about 10 weeks. Customers would not believe the reason and would get into "shouty Karen" mode....unless I showed them the newspaper I kept in my back pocket to shut them up. Strangely,the week it happened..... floods all over the uk. the scottish distillery fire(blue flame)explosion and subsequent fire for 5nights. the c+b pickle factory fire. The latter 2 events were remembered by the karens but they just couldn't get their heads round the floodwater having contaminated the factory supplies and the cleanup that had to follow before resuming production.
😅🤣😂...no words 😅
Yeah, I remember 2015....
Hey they had storm imogen in 2016. I thought that was a great name!! Lol.
tory have investments in flood insurence. To prevent floods would clearly leave a tory out of pocket and to leave a tory with out a proffit is looking to seem ilegal.
That donkey was smilimg like he was in shrek
He just ate some waffles.
0:19 Wasn't that guy an IGN journalist?
I'm getting itchy, I'm hoping for a new season.
I am so glad the rest of the world sees Florida like the rest of the USA does.
When is your show back on air Russ?! Its been fukin ages and we need your commentary back!!!
A new series of "The Russell Howard Hour" will be on Sky, later this year. Probably November again. He's currently occupied doing a world tour - New Zealand right now, then Europe. I don't know of any BBC planned series.
Jeez that guy was hanging on for dear life! i'd like to take this opportunity not to dance the ''mambo number 5'' during a hurricane. be safe everyone.
omg is it still raining in pommy land
What does soggy biscuits mean in Britain? I mean, is it a euphemism for something?
Basically, it's supposed to be a game, a load of dudes all have a wank and jizz on a biscuit... last to blow their load eats all the biscuits. Though I'm not sure anybody has ever actually played it.
Okay I'm gonna put it in simple terms so it doesn't get removed It's a game where men stand around a biscuit...touching themselves...until they all finish on the biscuit. Last person who does it eats the biscuit.
The ingenuity of man....
Also worth noting, it's more of a meme than any real thing. It's often mentioned as a joke, but I've never heard of anyone actually doing it. I mean, I'm sure a few people have... but it's certainly not a normal activity.
This is funny as f…..
Did anyone do it?
You've never had a hurricane party? There are parts of the U.S. where they're common. You know in advance it's coming. You hunker down with friends, food, and alcohol and hope you picked the house that will still be standing.
Nahhh justice for Jim ✊
Yooooo
I wonder how many actually googled ´woman makes donkey happy´😊😊😊😊
Is the Russell Howard Hour dead? It's been so long.
I need to hear his take on the Trump campaigns and on how he has handled his legal quagmires.
Ah Britts, the only thing more comical than them are just the Germans. 🤣🤣🤣
At 2:02, It could of been worse, she could of said “there’s a lot of soggy Jaffa Cakes in that factory”, It’s just a good job it wasn’t Mr Kipling’s, She would of been complaining about their soggy “Fairy Cakes”, “Angel Slices”, “Bakewell Tarts” & the “Battenberg”, Or even Robinson’s Bakers, which are famous for their “Manchester Tarts”, 🇬🇧🤣👍🏼
In Scotland we had hurricane bawbag but now we're like thr rest of the world with boring names.
0:58 My bad 🤷🏻♀
Storm Desmond, Windy Dave, Hurricane Edna, Monsoon Nigel, Flu Margret. AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!
2:40 winter is coming
Swimming not recommended the rest of the year, because sewage on UK beaches. ''Pledge to dredge'' - David Cameron 2014 ''Use the boats'' - David Cameron 2023
Googled it. The image of the donkey that Russel showed is the first one that comes up... How many of us disregarded his advice to cause this?
😂😂
Some bigger dinghies would help with flood rescue.....hang on, I've got an idea...
😂
Aside from the humour. Some media houses are plain stupid for risking their reporters lives to report like that. Completely idiotic.
Teresa Mannion doesn't fuck around when it comes to the weather
This dude a damn riot when he's not being overly political, but even then sometimes he slams it outta the park.
