- Jimmy's interview with Russell gets a little crazy when they try to mix random words, like "grape nuts" and "bunghole," into a casual conversation.

Russell Brand is a linguistical genius on steroids.
Astutely put. Seeing this, I can't help but feel pity for anyone who's playing word games with Russell.
on Adderall
I agree.
I approve of your agreement
Like a female bodybuilder.
This guy is really on the border of genius and insane.
Well said
why not both?
If crazy=genius
JG Morgan it’s a fine line between genius and insanity
@@TheTalentedMovies11 then I'm a f*ing arsonist
"Mystical lands-"
"LIKE WHAT!?"
dead
+ANIMEADDICT238 I cringed so hard when he said that. I mean, he could have just left it at "From here to Stonehenge"
I died so hard when he said that
"LIKE WOT?!"
He thought stonehenge wasn't real at the beginning of that sentence amd by the end he remembered it. It's why he gave the extra details about the ufo, so he would come across less dumb
He could've sneak all his words into 1 sentence if he wanted to.
I almost expected him to do it by accident and Jimmy to still get it wrong haha!
That almost was one sentence...
mashallah
*Snuck
I'm thoroughly impressed by Russell Brand.
+That Japanese Man Yuta What's up Yuta?! Nice to see ya
+That Japanese Man Yuta
Omg Yuta! :D
hey Yuta! :D
+That Japanese Man Yuta I always thought this game was missing something and Russell's right--you should have to guess the odd word out. Would make it much better.
Impressed and annoyed at the same time
imagine arguing with this bloke, would rip you apart lol
Damn, I feel humiliated just imagining it! That's like fighting a verbal hurricane. Just keeping up with his flow would be a challenge.
RIP ZYZZ
hi zyzz aesthetics. You comment on a lot of videos.. lol
***** so you're a big, stupid man, then?
***** sure, although youre definitely a little overweight, if you have to use violence or your physical atributes to prove your point, instead of your intellect, since its an argument, not a fight, then youre not exactly intelligent, are you?
Russell Brand is the world's best conversationalist. I could listen to him for days.
+Marc-Étienne Bernier You should listen to Christopher Hitchens.
H. Bowele I have read most of his work, he was a very eloquent man as well.
+Marc-Étienne Bernier And you still feel Russell Brand is the world's best conversationalist? :P
Jip W Alright touché, but Brand is still around ;)
+Marc-Étienne Bernier I.. strongly disagree.
"This game makes me feel like I'm trapped in a prison of language. I'm in a vortex of words."
are you kidding me? It's like his mouth produces linguistic gold!
+Dev Jon Prism*
+Matt W idiot
He actually said, "PRISM of language." It makes it even more golden if you think about it.
Jeb Bush Mother oops I couldn't tell with the accent I guess. either way its fantastic
"Sing Sing of Lingo"
I also liked that
He's the best contestant yet.
I liked ricky gervais' and bryan cranston's better. But that's just me
mnqromero13 Those ones are very funny but they didn't sneak the words in as clever as Russell did. When Russell did it Jimmy had no idea what words he was sneaking in mostly.
***** I guess so. But what I found funny is Jimmy could never guess his sneak words and he could always guess Jimmy's words. But asv you say that's not the point of the game but it still was funny when I watched it.
***** if the point is to NOT sneak words into a converstion...if the point is to make it obvious what the word on your card is so that Jimmy can have a good fake laugh about it, then those should be the stated rules. Russell just followed the rules as explained to him, assuming it was an actual game/competition. And, Russell's version where it is a game is much better imo
***** I thought his frustrated look meant he had no idea what words Russell was sneaking in. If he wanted to know the words so it would be more funny he should somehow make it more clear. If it had been me playing I would have done it just like Russell because that's how Jimmy explained it.
russell was really good at that. if we didnt see the words i cant imagine being able to pick which one was the sneak. jimmy however, smh, was painfully obvious.
He did fairly well with "John Goodman" though. Or, at least, better than his others.
It's not a fucking competition. Haven't you seen this before? Russell was going overboard. Nothing against Russell, it was funny :)
Dexi I slightly agree but Russel doesn't like people treating him like a lesser either way so it kinda balances out.
Kush Dank He likes to make sure everyone's looking at him.
Dexi Sure, he's an entertainer. Their ego's are bigger than ours :)
"its lovely that you brought the roots with you on your journey to the top of the show business tree" anybody else notice how genius this line was? amazing
now that iv'e read it. Yes lol
I thought he said businesstry it just sounded like a word to me idk fml
Yupp..he's incredibly witty and Jimmy Fallon didn't catch it I think. At least not right away.
JackinaBox he could be a poet tbh. He mastered the English language and uses a shit ton of literary terms
...Russell Brand is a crazy ass genius of a man....'nuff said.
Alexiz001 XD
Alexiz001 I like how you replied to yourself with a smiley face
FartingFighter lol nah, it was just me adding on to my original comment with a laughing face (smiley face is :) because i was actually laughing about having said "nuff said". I'm still adjusting to there being an edit post button for me to add on to my original comment without replying to it. lol
Alexiz001 genuis ? I was expecting someone to say he's dumb
+blak ops - I'm sure there are going to be people with both those opinions and every possible one in between.
Russell's brain is so lightening quick. I love watching him...
Russel is so highly intelligent with such a vast vocabulary- he's an intellectual so this game would be impossibleeeeee ha
+pimpindymepiece And he's known for playing stupid bufoons in movies.
Jimmy: "from here to... to... mythical lands"
Russell: "LIKE WHAT?"
K. O.
Hahaha yeah glad someone caught that
Few people know that Russell Brand is a legitimate wordsmith. He's got an honorary degree from a prestigious college because of his phenomenal way with the English language. Playing word sneak with Russell Brand is like playing hide the penny with David Blaine- chances are you're just not qualified. Either Jimmy didn't know who he was dealing with, or he's a smart enough host to know that Russell would spank this game and show people his amazing talent. Russell is one of the best writers of the day and far more intelligent that most people know or give him credit for. I love you Russ!
True.
I think you miss the proposal of the game.
It's not for who is the best at it, but to have fun and to be funny.
It's funny when you don't try so hard to fit the word, but to make a little messy.
***** I guess. Personally, I get why Russell played it the way he did. If anything, that's the _only_ way I can see this "game" being fun. The way you described it....just sounds lackluster and droll. Jimmy _could_ have stepped up and matched him...which would have made it more fun. Not really sure why he didn't do that...
Andromeda Lasso all English people speak better English than americans
*not to be taken as generalization
Ganjatom420 I wouldn't say ''better'' necessarily, I just believe they speak the correct English. If that makes any sense?,Lol.
I understand your comment though.
He's so smart and intelligent that his brain has literally switched him into sort of an insane, loud man that comes across as an idiot but really is just so clever that his brain literally stopped him from behaving like a normal man.
Basically he's wonderful and it's outstanding.
agree! I hate how people think hes an idiot just because hes loud and a little whacky. people dont take him seriously because of it. but when you actually pay attention and listen to what hes saying, as opposed to just watching his antics and movements, you will realize that he is very very smart.
And he's so bored by Jimmy who is definitely less than intelligent
He is a very clever man no denying that, but he is also on drugs.
Alistair Suter *WAS on drugs. big big difference.
Kelly Applegath In this interview? Because i swear to god watching this he is on something....
I'm always impressed by how eloquent Russell Brand is. People might think he's annoying, but he sure is brilliant.
I agree.
yes, definitely. some people mistake his persona and the way he speaks and might go on-and-on as him sounding dumb or stupid, but if you really listen, he sounds quite intelligent!
Primaball3rina people love to hate, that's nothing new. specially the internet, it's infested with haters. I mean look at how much hate I get for supporting Hitler and loving Mel Gibson :(
Russell destroyed this fun little game, now it's cringy.. He raised the bar too high. No one can match his silver tongue
+Howl I agree, it's actually kinda hard to watch the others now haha.
***** That's true, it gets funny again when it's REALLY bad :P
That's baaare trueee
+Howl Psst! It was on purpose. It was part if the "bit". You and those below me let it fly way over your heads.
The new John Krasinski one is good tho
Wow, that inspires you to expand your vocabulary doesn't it? He makes it cool to be smart again.
OlemVolle exactly! i've learnt things from Russell
***** Not to you and me perhaps. Many people do it though; They're acting stupid and expressing they know nothing about certain subjects, and at the same time subtly making fun of the fact that someone knows what they're talking about. The "right" audience will find that cute and funny. Would be easier to explain with an example, but I think many agree and recognize this situation.
+OlemVolle Russell is well-versed but in reality he's not very smart. At least his views on the world aren't.
+Armand Sutt whaaaaaat? how aren't they!?
Because he is a conspiracy theorist, a left wing hypocrite (I've got nothing against leftism, but I do have against radicalisation and hypocrisy) and very-very unreasonable when it comes to god. He isn't educated on science, history nor politics but he speaks on these topics with great enthusiasm, spewing his more than often ill-informed ideas onto the world.
Russell Brand is a lot smarter, wittier, and more sly than I thought he was. He made Fallon look like an idiot.
Totally agree. Did you come to this video because of the comments on the most recent Word Sneak?
***** Hahaha, that's true.
Which is not hard! He does it without a guest opposite!
I don't know, Fallon's frisbee thing was pretty funny and worked really well into conversation
It's easy to make Fallon look like an idiot; Russell destroying him was like shooting an ant with a shotgun.
Russell Brand's quick thinking and talking amazes me. He never stumble on his words or hesitate. How do I learn that?!
read books
meditate man, success guaranteed
Unfortunately, I believe it is one of those things that you are born with. That is just how he is. However, drugs might have helped a bit but he has been drugs-free for many many years now.
By reading or meditating. Reading is a form of meditation. It allows you to focus on a particular thought for an extended period of time.
Im going to guess its part something your born with, but also confidence goes a long way, as well as intelligence, being extraverted (where you think as you speak, as opposed to introverted where you think THEN speak), and just sheer talent. I read everyday, I meditate everyday, I used to do drugs everyday (just going by the examples people posted in reply to the question) but Im super shy, not confident with my speaking (in front of strangers). when I am with close friends (which are very few) and family, and on a topic I feel knowledgeable in and confident in what I know, I am able to speak like him. when it's a topic i'm interested in I can go on and on, never missing a beat or fumbling a word, and wear people out. but to be in front of a large crowd and still be like that, that's talent.
This would be SO much better if they did have to guess the word
I love it when it's carried out like a regular conversation, first one I saw was the Steve Carell one.
Right that's what I was thinking lol what's the point?
+Megan Walker because they're supposed to struggle with it and make the audience laugh
Cant win Russell xD
Hahaha Jimmy's head fell of after the first word from Russell hahaha
If I were as eloquent as he is, I would never shut my mouth ! ✌
Same
well he doesnt😂 you might wanna check out his youtube channel...
@@annipsy2185 which isn't anything bad.
Achi baat h...
Ki tum etni eloquent nahi ho
A face off between Russel Brand and Shashi Tharoor would be worth watching 😁
Brand's language skills and vocabulary are unbelievable. I don't think I've ever seen someone with such quick wit.
only person i can think of is MAYBE Ricky Gervais
That's the truth there's nobody like him! I'm in love 😍
Quick wit.. also Robin Williams.. xo
Russell is certainly a linguistic pleasure...
British. That's why
"brought the Roots with you on your journey to the top of the show-business tree" Beautiful. I have so much new found respect for Russell Brand.
+Isabelle H I did not even get that until I saw this comment. Thank you for this. Damn that's a wonderful sentence (is there a word to describe this type of awesome metaphor?)
+Barrrrrt Yes, metaphor.
Wow I didn't even notice that when I listened. Brand is literally an improv linguistic god.
Yeah, but he uses the word Roots with a double meaning - both indicating the band and using it as part of the metaphor. That's not your everyday metaphor. It's a work of art.
+Barrrrrt double entendre maybe ? i don't really know.
russell seriously is so quick on his toes in conversation, it's incredible.
Brand is the best at this game his vocabulary is super extensive you'd have no idea what word he snuck in
+lRomez the guys in the control room almost didn't notice him say "female bodybuilder", if you notice that long pause b4 the next word
Did y'all catch this : "it's nice you've brought the ROOTS on your journey to the top of the show business TREE" Russell is a freaking genius! Give this man a noble prize
He didn't stop there 😉
"In the glorious cornucopia of entertainment you need men like them TO SUPPORT YOU."
Referring again to the band as support and the roots as a supporting base for a tree.
The other amazing thing about this is he was obviously just trying to change the subject to The Roots so that he could talk music and work in mambo easily. Then he got sidetracked giggling about the game and shifted gears into Jimmy playing him like an instrument which is even more creative. I feel like you could do an analysis of Russell's thought process throughout this entire game and it would be filled with the most clever problem solving.
There is literally no point to the game if you don't guess what word you've snuck in! That's why Russell was asking more than once if he should guess the word...
His rule set was much better yeah
And not to mention that the audiences see the words too. That's a give away man!
"LIKE WHAAAT?!!?"
This showed how astute Brand is and how predictable Jimmy is.
this showed how dumb the game is
This was fucking embarrassing for Jimmy. The gulf between Brand's vocabulary and eloquence and Fallon's was so blisteringly great I almost walked into the living room and killed my dog.
It was so spectacular that I burned my house down.
What the absolute hell did I just read
Mate it's a bit of fun, not a vocabularaic battle. Lighten up and leave your dog alone
what a golden thread
Marlonzen did YOU just sneak in some words?....
conversation skills - level God
this comment 👍 👍
People must hate interviewing him but I love him
Jasmine Diaz Check his visits to Craig Ferguson at the Late Late Show...you won't be disappointed 😉
His first interview he did with Jonathan Ross was awesome, you could see Jonathon's admiration for him growing and growing as it went along! American interviewers tend to find him a little bit more difficult than UK, the clip of him on one of the US news shows where he basically takes over the entire broadcast because they can't act professionally around him is gold
@@everythingshiny oh please which one? I collect these in my mind and keep them with me always wonderful entertaining interviews 💙
Why would you not guess the word? That rule ruins the fun.. That's only fun when you deal with normal people. Normal people are not as clever with language as Russell. He sneaks the words in there so good, even the audience fails to clap or cheer at the right time.
As much as I agree with you, in the audience's defense, he did go out of order and they truly did have no way of knowing what the words were.
in the audience's defense, it was the first time they didn't ruin the bit via clap/cheer ...""HE SAID TACO, OH SHIT!!!"
He didn't go out of order. He only said that to confuse Jimmy. He acts dumb but he knows exactly what he's doing. ;)
@@jodiegordon5559 You're right, he didn't go out of order. And Jimmy lied bc with other guests they WERE supposed to guess the word... that's the whole point of the game, sneak it in and see if the other guy can guess it. I'm glad you posted that Jodie 👍😉 Jimmy got schooled by an expert. Then Jimmy got offended because he was out done so what did he do, he insulted his guest. But like a pro, Russell got the last laugh and he did it using Jimmy's own game against him. Haha.
Jimmy was literally at a loss...
You ever heard that we only use 10 percent of our brains? Russell uses 150 fucking percent of his!
2:05 "to mythical lands" "LIKE WOT" sigh so cute
I don’t get it :\
Russell Brand is super intelligent and very good at this game -- I think Jimmy was a bit intimidated - for good reason. I like them both -- but I thought the opponent should have to guess the word -- did I miss something?
I imagine it's more for the audience's amusement.
No its just about sneaking the words in and make up a funny and random story ;)
super intelligent? www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/11/02/russell-brand-s-revolution-for-morons.html
fromthedoor
Do you get all your news from the Daily Beast? You must be super intelligent yourself.
Yes, you missed the explanation b/c Russell couldn't shut up for 1sec so Jimmy could explain the game...you are supposed to have a conversation and sneak those words in as smooth as possible. The 2 players need to make up a story w/ those words. Nobody need to guess anything.
Guys, Jimmy isn't playing this game to win, he's playing it for fun.... his laughter isn't fake. Go back as far as you can in his history. He laughs at EVERYTHING. Russell is fantastic though wow.
There is no winner in this game except for the viewers.
It isn't a competitive game, so it isn't possible for someone to 'win' it. It's just an improve game they're playing _together_. There's no goal other than to say their word.
+junbh2 improv I mean
+IWriteSinsNotEssaysOK if he laughs at everything, there's actually a really good chance that it is fake...
HOW DO I LEARN TO SPEAK THAT WAY IT'S MARVELOUS IT'S FABULOUS AND IT'S ABSOLUTELY CHARISMATIC
Dictionary / Thesaurus. If you use or hear a word that stands out to you (Charismatic, for example), look up what it means and which words are similar to it. Over time they'll just become a part of your speech and you'll know when and how to use them interchangeably.
+To The Hopeless I've been looking up words I don't understand for a long time, but I still don't have his skill! It's not an issue of vocabulary, it's an issue of quick wit, I think.
Study English in context like this. It's the best way to learn words and expressions!
+fenknife, try writing. With talking you have to think of words on the spot, which takes practice. With writing you can go back and exchange words. You'll start to get the hang of which words are interchangeable and how they fit into sentences.
Read books.
Russel is way too good at this.
Love russell, he should have his own talk show
Russell is the 1st one to play this well, he's infact sneaky :D
I thought Steve Carell was brilliant when he played it.
Steve Carell is better because it is an actual conversation not just reciting series of words that came to mind
YsoSerious I thought Ricky Gervais was brilliant as well! I loved Russell's version but the thought of Gervais using Shaquille O'Neal's name to tell Jimmy he had recently gone to an Irish pub still has me in stitches. What I think Gervais did really cleverly was that he knew that we all knew what the word was and he was trying to make us laugh rather than playing the game.
Russell literally guessed every word Jimmy had to say, Jimmy is painfully bad at it lol
+willwork4superpowazz In my opinon the "frisbee" was very clever
+willwork4superpowazz Relative to Russel Brand, it must be hard to avoid being painfully bad.
+Patryk Gruszny The frisbee was good, but not quite sneaky enough haha.
He wasn't supposed to try to guess, though. That's not the game, which Jimmy kept trying to explain to him but Russell didn't seem to understand no matter how many times he was reminded.
+junbh2 But the game is pointless without the guessing. It's just really stilted improv. Anybody can just talk a load of bullshit and insert in random words. The point should be that you have to do it in a way that seems casual. The motivation to keep it casual is that you have to be sneaky and make the word seem naturally a part of your story or else your opponent will guess your word.
God he spits out words like liquid gold is pouring from his mouth. If only my vocabulary was even close to his id be ecstatic
Russell immediately knew all of Jimmy's words.
brand, this man's a genius, and the way he ended the game made me die of laughter, thank you russell brand
*THEY SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO GUESS THE WORD*.
Anybody else realize how fucking amazing Russell Brand is at improv
I don't even agree with like 35% of the things he preaches. However, I do think that he is very smart and worth a listen when it comes to most things. That being said, he is still one of my favourite people ever, just because of his unique mix of christian-less spirituality/critical thinking/social charisma and his talent as an actor and a comedian. Truly a unique being. One of those "too weird to live, too rare to die" people.
well said
Menace II Society
I'm not familiar with all of what he's preaching. What is he being hypocritical about?
Patrick Storey *_"too weird to live, too rare to die"_* - Not entirely sure what that _means_...but I agree with you. Russell is truly a gem. Personally, I cannot *_stand_* normal average people. To me, the word "weird" *_always_* has a positive connotation. Normality is utterly boring and useless. I'm glad Russell is alive; he makes the world a more interesting place. Without people like him, life would be nihilistic and meaningless.
google it
He doesnt believe in religion, but has made it clear of his relationship with the Lord, as you all should consider. A higher power, dont be narsacistic
Russell is a genius. I would like to watch a full hour of him playing a word game.
The look on Russell's face after Jimmy says Stonehenge is priceless 😂
It´s impossible to win this game against someone like Brand. Especially for Fallon who is not very quick or good with language.
There isn't any way of winning or losing this game - it's not a competitive game, it's a collaborative one. The goal is just to make each other and the audience laugh.
+junbh2 and yet somehow Russell won hahaha
+Jawj Martian lmao so true
Especially seeing as it’s not a game.
How can Russell have such a humbling, beautifully poetic and tremendous vocabulary, but still have personality traits and intellectual maturity of a teenager.
because he doesn't.
He's just kidding around
Because he's from England I think they speak always with some kind of different vocabulary than ours.
lol
Because he's free to be as he wishes to be, he's not constrained by the judgment of people such as yourself who are so detached from their own spirit that they can't see the expression of it in others. His 'intellectual maturity' and 'personality traits' on the surface seem immature but underlying that is profound wisdom and freedom to express himself as he wishes. He's recovered the spirit of the child, the genius, that most of us lose in this culture.
The child in him hasn't died yet, he's basically a rockstar in the comedian/acting world.
talking with this man must be a newcomer to the english language's nightmare😬
He is the best native speaker for practicing listening and speaking xD
+Ada banana. So true.
I think you should rethink the wordorder in that sentence. xD Or was that intentional?^^
Yeah,more like a nightmare to a newcomer to the english language. But the english language can be a nightmare,too,I suppose.
Doesn't the host have to have great conversationlist skills?Russel just whipped the Floor whit him!!
+nivledamh as always.
It's almost as if Fallon isn't that great at hosting. He's a good entertainer, decent comedian, but he's not a good conversationalist.
Perhaps you haven't watched him with Conan.
I think the way Russell wanted to play this game sounds like more fun.
Russell is on to something here. This game would be so much better if you did have to guess what word the other person is trying to sneak in!
i think they dont do it normally cause everyone else isnt as good as russell so it would fail sb haha
Ya lol it’s like, wth is the point of the game
"Ya lol it’s like, wth is the point of the game"
Crowd entertainement? That's purely what this was about.
Although this is the weirdest game of Word Sneak, it's the best 😂
This has been one my favorite games of Word Sneak. I like that Russell Brand was actually using a lot of words (some very silly) to disguise his actual word. I think the point of the game can get lost with the audience reaction. It makes it more fun (to me at least) if you can actually sneak the dang word in the conversation. This by far has been one of the better, if not best, examples!
This shouldn't have been the first "Word Sneak" that I watched, Russell set the bar way too high..
Russel Brand's mind is either the most wonderful or most horrifying place I can imagine. I value that in him.
Jimmy is so uncomfortable lol!
Russell is very good at making the word not obvious
Jimmy actually got pissed out that Russell was correctly playing the game hahaha
No he didn't
Fuuuck this guy is sharp and verbose... I mean, I know him doing stand-up and talking about his causes. But just pulling that sort of random stuff out of thin air is literary ingenuity.
you can tell that Russell was irritating Jimmy like hardcore but hes trying to hide it. I find Russell entertaining but he is a hyper individual. Anyone else agree?
+Genesis Obadiah Yes I agree. This is perhaps the only time I have seen Jimmy look annoyed. Silly of Jimmy though because Russell makes the clip here.
+Genesis Obadiah this is agreed, i feel as if jimmy didnt want to interview him. Russell Brand for me, he is not annoying. When I watch him crack jokes or talk political. I get a sense of "Hey this guy is sort of like me" and this is probably the same with everybody else. You feel as if he has a part of your personality. Reading this may sound crazy but i hope whovever gets it and understands it. A pat on the back for you.
+JT The Red Wolf I totally understand this! this is how i feel everytime i see him. He is very misunderstood tbh
+Kawtar Ab thank you for your comment. :D yes I do agree he is somewhat misunderstood, but to us that actually understand him he is not misunderstood. Like when he was being interviewed as such a achor with blonde hair and a blue dress couldn't actually relax when around him, this sent her to be teased at. And its irritating to watch others react to him as irritating, hes not. He's just like everybody else and people just can't seem to handle his wildness. It sort of pisses me off, like these are some of my biggest P's. It is the sort of the same feel how Robin Williams cracked jokes and sort of went wild, everyone was trying to shut him up a bit, which is reasonable he did seem to go a bit too far. Now Im not comparing, well I am a bit, but im not entirely comparing Robin to Russell to see who is the wildest. Im not. Im simply just saying... typing, that wild people, gay people, trans or whatever you identify with, we are the same. And I wish people would stop the bloody "Oh you're not the same as us you cannot be here" posh bullshit. Enough said.
+Genesis Obadiah - Russell flies circles around Jimmy's simplistic mentality. Jimmy has an original zany side, but seems like he'd be content to just giggle for an hour, without any substance. Russell is genuinely aware of what is going on in a much more liberated (free) way. Jimmy's "irritation" is a spontaneous defense mechanism for being outwitted, like "oh come on you're making it difficult for me.."
by far the best performance on word sneak i've seen. really intelligent guy.
WHEN HE LOOKS AT THE CAMERA AFTER JIMMY SAYS STONEHENGE I LOSE MY SHIT EVERY TIME
lol so funny how jimmy can't keep up :DD
+coldlasagne Ditto. I like Jimmy a lot- but he really is no match at all for Russel Brand. Conan can keep up with Russell much better.
girllovesmusic conan is not sympathic to me at all. also jimmy kimmel can't keep up with fallon's charisma :D just my opinion
+coldlasagne Who gives a shit, each host is different from each other so they're going to attract different personalities . They both have they're moments for me as far as what makes me laugh , but Kimmel overall I think makes me laugh more .
They should have played it Russell's way. Jimmy never would have guessed which word he'd been trying to sneak in - it was so similar to Russell's normal style of conversing.
HIS FACE WHEN JIMMY SAID "STONE HENGE" HAHAHHA
Russell's last word was delivered in the most amazingly sarcastic manner -- as if to say, "There, I've played by your terribly boring rules. Are you happy?"
Man, Russell Brand is so verbose.
***** *pops head in*
Was someone in here looking for a fucking?
Leo the Weirdo he's a very intelligent man
+James J I see what you did there, but thanks I'll pass :)
Sick TØP pic fren also, are you actually the message man?
Seth Pavo Don't think so.
I guess a lot of people are just finding out how good Russell is with words now. I tried to listen for filler words like "um", but I couldn't find any. It's crazy.
Russell Brand is honestly conversationalist goals.
+San You could start with not making sentences like "Russell Brand is honestly conversationalist goals."
+GreedBros this comment made me laugh more than the video thank you bro
faboze It would be the same for me as wel!111!!! ROFL LMAO LOL
GreedBros tru dat.
This is by far the funniest thing to ever come out of the Fallon Tonight Show.
Jimmy Fallon didn't expect to be blown away like that xD he looks so nervous
"LIKE WAAAAAAAAAH?!!" lolololol
He's so extra I love it
I replayed the part Jimmy sneaked the word Frisbee in it ! Genius !!
I feel like I'm running out of breath when I listen to Russell lmao
This is the perfect game for him!
Ok I might have just seen this, only a couple years late, but WOW Russell Brand has a way with words! He talks so fast yet so eloquently, his brain is a million miles per minute. And he is probably the best at this game. Doesn’t make it obvious at all.
Jimmy had no idea what word was sneaked in, lol. Russell was the best I've seen at this. I like his idea of guessing the word, lol
Its kind of surprising Brand hasn't become more popular(in the states). His TV show and movies don't seem to draw large audiences, but the man is as talented as anyone in comedy today. Hes engaging, intelligent, and as quick witted as they come.
Wow, I was so impressed by Russell Brand's impro conversation, he used so many foreign words and made fantastic embeddings of his sneaky words! Amazing! A dream for someone like me who loves languages! BRAVO!
I love how Russell is playing Jimmy. He's so much more intelligent and able to manipulate the conversation, and he's driving Jimmy up the wall!
And now I am here watching it again coz he's so entertaining and genius!
I just can't with him...OMG. No one could keep up with him, He is entirely too quick witted. This was great.
Best Word Sneak ever! Russell is a brilliant wordsmith!
He makes it look so bloody easy..bless the man.
Gosh I love Russell Brand😅
I absolutely love the way Russel is here!
Russell Brand is high as fuck hahahaha XD Love the way this guy speaks
You're high as fuck
Everybody high as fuck?
Russell has been sober for over a decade, it's sort of 'his thing' advocating abstinence based addiction recovery?????
Ally, I was just be ironic, just for a laugh. I am a big fan of Russell and I would never intentionally put him down.
Oh right, apologies for being a bit 'right on' then x
very articulate and charming, social interaction seems so easy and fun for him... I know alot of people have these sorts of thoughts but just cant speak right so their genius goes to shit as they cant express themselves adequately and end up looking dumb in the eyes of others
is it just me or does jimmy remind anyone else at a layed back ted mosby?
Agreed!
+luca pasqualini well he does now!
+luca pasqualini haha you should watch him talking to Jason Segel
its like watching high school reunion
THANK YOU. OH MY GOD
yes omg I always thought of tht!
i think jimmy didn’t expect this level of conversation, very amusing
Holy cow, Russell Brand may have done the best job at this game I've ever seen!
That moment when Jimmy realizes he's brought a knife to a gun fight.
Russel, to me, has a very Robin Williams style way...whenever you see him it's unpredictable what will happen...his wordplay and jump from subject to subject is insane..very underrated in his own right
Russell brand is fucking awesome
