Little did we know, this is not the first time this has happened. Al's hair just grows so insanely fast that he HAS to give it out once a day less it reach maximum length and gains sentience
And what's more, cutting it off every day is all Al can do to stifle it taking control, for Weird Al was in fact born with DEMON hair, and it intends to take over the world!
This is genuine comedy. Tasteful, classic, & authentic. What ever "it" is, Weird Al Yankovic has always had it, he still possesses it, & may very well take it to the grave. He is the patron saint of comedy, parodies, & taking a break from seriousness. Thank you, Weird Al!
I’m pretty sure at least, while he’s getting up look at the back of his head, compare that to his Gump music video when he didn’t really have the hair and there’s not a big “bulge”
While I know this event was staged, I can't help but feel that if Mr. Al actually encountered someone in passing who was just crying like this, he would actually go and help.
I knew Al was wearing a wig the moment I saw him. Glad to see he was just wearing a bald cap, and didn't cut his glorious mane. I worry his beautiful locks might be the source of his musical genius, and cutting it might lose him his talents, like Samson.
Same. I acutally wondered if that was going to be addressed or if they would just act like it was his normal hair the entire time. like, he really thought we wouldn't notice the texture is completely different? ha
@@sintua Yeah, but they were all political, anti Philistine songs. Lots of fun, at first, but there’s only so many ways you can make “a food for jackals” rhyme with “donkey jawbone up his arse” in ancient Hebrew. It gets old.
@@-be-blank- Fun Fact: Before movies had sound, every theater had musicians (or at least a piano player) who played music to set the mood for every scene of the film. If dialog was written, it appeared as text on the screen between camera shots. Actors had to portray their character's emotions through body language, and facial expressions, because their voices could not be recorded. Movies from that era are now known as "Silent Movies". The first films that included actual recorded sound were called "Talkies". When that change happened, many Hollywood actors lost their jobs, or hired people to speak their lines, because their voices didn't record well on early equipment.
This hits me close to home. My mother has a history of donating hair to make wigs for cancer patients. The ability to look normal, and be able to walk around in society without being stared at means the world to those poor souls.
It's an amazing age, when I, who as a young man was first introduced to the wonders of the twinky wiener sandwich and learned of the deep meaning hidden within mashed potatoes, who was taught to clean off his plate so that other kids won't starve in Japan, can give the man responsible for my obesity and microwave head tan addiction an upvote. Without Al, I'd have been dead years ago, or maybe just missing a few fingers, because I never would have put down that chainsaw. Take my upvote. You've earned it, Al, you've earned it.

In the first few seconds I thought the curls seemed just a tad bit off in curliness and Yankovicness, but I dismissed it as a "bad hair day". Then oh boy when he reached for the hair, it was a "I KNEW IT!" reaction :D Always fun to see any Al video! Hello from Greece!
With the exception of how the hair stuffed under it makes the back of your head look, that bald cap is done so extremely well! Particularly _because_ I know it's a bald cap, it highlights how perfect the color and invisible the seams are.
I thought his head looked funny without the wig, then I realized that he had a cap on with this real hair underneath and that's why his head looked odd.
Weird Al is actually the hair, not the man. He has passed on the burden to this stranger. This man is the new Weird Al.

Thats what honestly killed it for me. I love Al but this was. Idk.
Do you know why I love Weird Al?
Because he does whatever he frikin wants to, and this...is what he wants to.
A good man in the desert of our times.
Or as he would say it "the dessert of our times"
@@jamLP but that takes away the point of the origina... Oh yeah you're right he would
On a more serious note: clearly Al has found the fountain of youth and is unwilling to share with the rest of us.
Hey, at least when Al asked if he needed help, the guy didn’t say “NOOOOOO, I want you to cut off my arms and legs with a chainsaw.”
Good catch!
Deep reference and I love it
So I did, then he gets all indignant on me like "hey man I was just being sarcastic" well that's just great how was I supposed to know that

he look like a totally different person in a matter of seconds
We are lucky to live on the one planet that is home to Weird Al.
I actually yelped with shock when I saw this, my brother helpfully pointed out that it was a bald cap, because I was legit scared for a moment there.
This feels Chaplin-esque and I’d love to see Al do more silent skits
I was thinking more like BUSTER KEATON-ish.
Yes, the song gave it that old timey feel
Should be black and white with film grain and subtitles for more authenticity.
This was a silent skit 🤓👍
You definitely should win an Oscar for this Weird Al
Agreed XD
Only if it was in black and white
They robbed him of the oscar UHF should've won an award for greatest movie in the known Universe.
Weird al should get at least an Oscar and Grammy every year tbh
Oscars are trash. They mean absolutely nothing anymore.
A macaroni art trophy made by his fans would be 100x more meaningful.
Touching and moving. I laughed. I cried. Deserves an academy award.
