They’ve got this one where these two guys are on a roof and one guy is testing to see if he can skate across a skylight. So he puts his skateboard down gingerly and jumps on the glass maybe two times when the thing gives way like a manhole cover and he gets sucked straight down. Camera jiggles, next thing it’s peering straight down on him. He’s screaming, “My leg, my leg, my leg…” The whole clip is maybe 12 seconds long but by God it’s the kind of thing that gets my mean side a workout giggle.
As for white people running funny, I guess Tom Hanks in Forrest Gump takes sme kind of prize (and his stunt double brother).
That &%$#@ Larry Bird moved like a wounded duck didn’t he?
Oh, and Tony Soprano in the season five finale, hauling ass from Tony Sack and the feds. Bwah ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Lots of people walk funny. Especially if their shoes don’t fit. Me, I’m white and I walk like a Mack truck. I don’t know if it’s funny, but it sure isn’t ghetto fabulous.
Nah, his white guy voice is WAY more nasal than his normal voice. He does several permutations, too. I really like his square white guy, a la “racial draft.”
And Dave can make fun of white people all he wants. I think he does it better than just about anyone else I’ve seen. He manages to totally skewer us without being hurtful or mean.
It’s hard to get offended when he also has a skit of the impact of slave reparations (sp?) that includes Tron, the new richest man in the world, who accumulated his wealth through a lucky string of rolls in craps.
I love how, whenever they have a group of people dancing, there is always that one guy doing the Robot. Heh heh.
Wow, didn’t realize we had so many die-hard Dave Chappel fans here. I just have to re-iterate that he pales in comparison to Eddie Murphy’s stuff. When he makes fun of the white-sounding black cop in Beverly Hills Cop - “We’re not falling for the banana in the tailpipe…” - Sorry, but Chappel isn’t even close.
Because you can’t quote a quote, at least not with the quote button. Automatic quoting of quotes was possible with vB2 but not vB3. Now, if you want to quote a quote, you need to copy the quote and paste it within the new quote, don’t forget to add the quote tags around the old quote.
Chappelle already does a series of skits similar to this: When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong. Given the opportunity to back away from a situation, his characters decide instead to “keep it real”, always with calamitous results. Funny stuff.
