How To Deal With Hecklers Page 2

There was this really funny clip on YouTube a couple of years ago, of some American college kid doing a stand up routine. The crowd don't like him and they start jeering, and he loses it and starts shouting back at the crowd and saying he's better than everyone there because he has big muscles and he gets laid all the time. It was very very funny. I'm trying to find it on YouTube again but not having much luck.

I saw that it was well weapon.

Shouting at standups, is like drawing on the walls of an art gallery.

I've seen that before. He is a total wanker!

Still clapped him though, didn't they?

...clapped him around the side of his head? Hmm I'd like to do stand up, brave thing to do.

Here's Richard Herring's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8IQYSp0EuE

Ha! That Burns one is brilliant! What a stupid,stupid woman.

Heres one from Hicks. Do not heckle Hicks! Well. You can now. He probably won't say all that much. You would totally own him.

This is wonderful. And check out the guy sitting next to the loudmouth woman. Could he BE any more uncomfortable?

Heh. That is funny. I love inflammatory women.

I must look into Brendon Burns. He's just had a DVD come out, hasn't he?

That is in fact an out take from the DVD recording!

Thought Jimmy Carr handled himself fairly well here:

Love the trap he sets for the heckler, but if I had been in the audience I think I might have bought into the Orient Express thing...

I could never do stand up. I'm just not that quick to deal with hecklers. They put me off.

He's good that Herring. I think he's on Buzzcocks this week. Or was that last week?

Last week.
