    I couldn't stop laughing about the bit with the guy with the artificial ear sticking his head out of the car window and the Northern Engish guy saying "Your mum and dad cut your ear off as a punishment?"

      Whats even funnier I think (not sure if this is the video) when he says rather than calling people who are disabled that, calling them mutants instead XD, creased me several times over was thinking about this a while after him saying that lol, as I am technically that pmsl.
      I may not look like I have a disability but do have Personal Independence Payment at the extended rate too which replaced Disability Living Allowance, the condition I have which causes me right now a whole load of problems lol, is due to a mutation of the APC gene so tadaaaahhhhh!!!
      I have to say when he said people with disabilities have the sickest sense of humour I do have that, I love the proper belly laughing when my belly starts aching, I'd love to have a convo with him about that I bet he'd laugh his ass off! XD!!!

    I'm so glad I found this! When I was in Britain 3 years ago I saw him on the telly, and he took his leg off in "mock the week" but I never heared of him since, because I had forgotten his name.

      Ever since I had a hip replacement that went wrong (they broke my leg during the operation) I've not only had the metal ball for the hip but a big plate in my leg. Both of those combined set the alarm off every time I go through airport security.

      Seen him twice in person live in the audience and both times I've ended up in tears this was before he got behind people with various health problems though, would be far funnier now I think (not saying before he wasn't far from it haha).

    I cannot seem to "reply" so, to all those people wondering how Adam Hills lost his foot? Well, he didn't. He was born without it to my understanding.
    I love how the guy took the mickey and told him a croc took his ear.

      He walked in to a gig in Melbourne I went to (2nd time I've seen him live when he never used to mention his leg as he wanted to see if he could do standup without making jokes about his artificial foot lol) when he brought in all his former lower legs lol, his mention of what looks he got with them sticking out of the bag pmsl. Or suppose the look he could have got, purposefully I think putting footwear on some of them just for the sake of the joke lol.

      Given that he said “bottle”, I think that’s probably what he meant. In the US, “tomato sauce” typically refers to either a pasta topping or pizza sauce, and the condiment is ketchup.

    My boyfriend has an artificial right leg and gets all that fuss at the airport. Adam Hills is right though, there is no sexy way to take a leg off. Beaches are hilarious, and people try to be overly sensitive about it. He just thinks it's funny.

      As a recent amputee I have to say if you don't make a joke about it from time to time you'll spend the rest of your life feeling sorry for yourself. I have the odd dark day but my favourite saying right now is "What's left of me is feeling great."

    Hey, Adam can have a job here in America any time. But no, we're not all as dense as other countries think. Hell I had to explain to a Welsh friend, that Canada isn't ours and that his visa wasn't good there. "Friends" were going to take him over the border and let him work it out with immigration on his own. Sometimes dense is imported.

    @Tracymmo You're right that we don't think of sharks nearly as much, at least not since "Jaws" was popular! Few of us live near the beach as it is. I have had plenty of confused discussions with Aussie friends in Adelaide and while living in Europe, which are even funnier when there's someone English present and we all have different words for the same thing. Some I words I've had to have defined: dag, chunder, lino, bikie, Pom, sickie, milk bar, esky, bikkie, pressie, jumper, fairy floss.

    The Bull Shark
    Tiger Shark
    Great White Shark
    and finally the Saltwater Crocodile
    The last two are well loved in Australia, and despite what many Americans might say- Saltwater Crocodile would rip an American Alligator in half and eat it for lunch!

    Nah, I grew up on a farm, knew a guy who was missing a toe. He'd been cutting wood and was bitten on the big toe by a big Eastern Brown, the thing just slithered away, he took off his boot, took off his socks, and just lopped off his toe. That's badass. I also have a scar all the way down my back, my brother pushed me onto a barbed wire fence. I tell people it was a drop bear. Basically, keep variation, or they'll twig that we're all lying about our "war wounds" :P

    that first one is so true omg. I'm in the middle of treatment for chronic pain and I was texting my friend "hey how r u wuu2" y'know casual chit chat and I mentioned that I had just come back from the chiropractor, forgetting that i'd never actually told him that I have a condition. and he replied "oh god...…..I sense a pun coming." I laughed my ass off and told him I wasn't joking and he didn't believe me lmao. so I decided that while he was waiting for the punchline to my chiropractor joke, the joke would be that there's no punchline and no joke. we had that convo two days ago and as far as i'm aware, he's still waiting for the punchline xDD

    Tomato sauce and ketchup are not synonymous. If you add a lot of sugar to tomato sauce you get ketchup. If you don't it's not ketchup.
