I've said that line to people in ordinary conversation, and they look at me funny if they catch the joke.

After being alive for 50 years I have come to the conclusion that the Monty Python team might be slightly mad.

The classic Giuliani defense.

It is amazing how each "Python" can inhabit his different characters. Such credible and believable talent.

I love the line "There's no doubt about it, this expedition does have some rather unusual aspects Jim Lad."

...it's bleeding damp!

Definitely one of my favourite ever Python sketches.

"I was talking metaphorically, ya fool!"

"Of course it's not an ordinary street, it's got a lake in it! Look, how many streets do you know that have got lakes in them?!"

"Of course it's not an ordinary street! It's got a lake in it!" OMG :D

This was truly one of the great expeditions under the auspices of the British Empire. Often overlooked in the History books.

There's no doubt about it: this expedition does have some rather unusual aspects, Jim lad.

Perfect description of the military. This is not a comic video... it is a documentary.

Two of my fellow MP-loving friends worked at a department store. One day, they found a red mannequin's leg. They waited for their supervisor to walk by, then one of them pretended to gnaw on the leg while the other said, "There is no cannibalism at Sanger-Harris... McGee! Put that leg down!" Their supervisor just rolled his eyes and walked on. He was used to that kind of thing. We all spent the 80's endlessly reenacting Monty Python sketches.

Much silliness is afoot

After being alive for 67 years I’ve come to realise they are only ones who are normal

This has to be the funniest most ridiculous sketch I ever saw Python do. The parrot suddenly appearing on John's shoulder looking over at him had me in stitches and it just gets stupider and stupider with the Naval hippies, cannibalism/necrophilia cover up and residents living in a lake all executed within the space of just 7 minutes. Only the man hearing songs in his head who gets cut open by the doctor to reveal hippies squatting in his stomach rivals this for farcical hilarity.

This is the most amazing sketch everrr!!! i am TOTALLY going to join the RN!!! :)

100 Rads on the 100 Point Radical Rating System! Perfect! -This is wonderful! This is one of my favorite Monty Pythons. It's SO SILLY! -This video is something other than else! -What's really great is all the Pythons get into it. GIlliam does the Can Ya Dig It cartoon. Cleese turning into a pirate, Palin and Idle as Hippie Dudes, Jones as the straight interviewer, and Chapman as the modern improved Nay-Vee Captain. -Also, behind them, they're packing the goofiest stuff into the van.

it's like they all had ideas about the skit and decided to use all of them.

Mind-blowing comedy.

Wow I have never seen this sketch before!
