Karl actually did a short video where he went back to that house and identified the note and the flies. Basically proving it was real because people doubted it.

Cruxador oh yeah I forgot about that! That story was so creepy and then for it to be confirmed 😱

"because if nothin' was knockin' about at any point, how did anythin' carry on?"

I say just keep going in order with S1 E2 and just skip the ones you already did. Love these reactions bro 👍

Really enjoy your reactions man! There’s actually a video of Karl going through that home that he mentioned at the end, and he showed the flies!!! Really worth looking up in your own time👍

The one where he mentions dinosaurs "knocking about" today is S1E10 "The Fight"

You need to now react to the video where Karl goes back to this house, filmed in person to prove that he wasn't lying!

Wish I could remember the episode numbers, but the best ones to look for are the one where Karl predicts the future. The two where Karl makes movie pitches. The one where they end with what they would do if it was their last day on earth and Karl makes Ricky laugh so hard he falls off his chair. And the one where Karl talks about war time poetry. Oh, oh and the one where they talk about dopplegangers. One of the greatest Karl lines ever come from that one. I won't spoil it

You’re great dude. Glad I discovered you on here. Thanks for the content. It’s very appreciated.

He reacted similarly to how I did watching this for the first time I think with someone who showed me this show. Random but real - isn't it so damn weird that you can watch things by yourself and find it funny as hell and barely crack a smile, but the moment there's someone else you can see reflect the same reaction you're more likely to let it show at full. We are strange creatures.

For me, I laugh my ass off at Karl no matter if there is anyone around

the animation and sound effect of the bananas being chucked into the rocket are perfect - it sounds like the rocket is just one giant empty banana chamber +cockpit and banana dispenser.

I think the "sense" he talks about is just that our brains process a lot of information that we dont actively think about. If a person walks up behind you and stands there, you stop hearing their footsteps in close proximity, theres a subtle shadow in your field of vision, theres a slightly different air pattern on your skin because they block the breeze from a fan. I think its just a lot of our regular senses working with such slight information that we dont attribute it to them.

So Monkey news was a feature they did on the radio because Karl would often come in with a ridiculous story about a monkey and so made it a regular thing as well as taking it over to the podcasts. Another great episode man! Nice one! :)

“Faffing” messing about doing menial things that don’t really amount to anything or you shouldn’t be doing in the first place. It’s pretty much the act of procrastination, but can also mean messing around or casually tampering with something when you shouldn’t be, in the context of someone telling you not to.

'Gaze Detection' is the sense that Karl is desperately trying to explain. It's part of our ability to sense obstacles or other dangers. Messages from our peripheral vision are sent to our brain even if we can't consciously acknowledge them in the moment. Proprioception is our ability to realise the position and movements of our body without sight. - Your friendly neighbourhood Biology geek.

(tears).... Even though I saw that episode a few years ago, watching you react was great. My stomach hurts... there's nothing better than watching/hearing you laugh at exactly the right time!

I love your videos with Karl! You gotta watch the "freaks" episode and the "Meet Karl Pilkington" video. They're my favorites!

The story about the flies and condom is actually true haha. There’s a video about it on KZread

The monkey in space was true. His name was Ham. He did get rewarded with bananas and he did operate some controls on the craft when a flashing light appeared. Karl was at least kinda right lmao

I’m just seeing these reviews of yours, so I’m sure I’m someone has mentioned this. This trio all started on Radio XFM when Karl was a producer assigned to RG and SM. He introduced some gems on that show. Rock Busters, Educating Ricky, Monkey News, Karl in a Film, Songs of Phrase, etc. You should also check out “Ricky Gervais Guide to...” an hour long podcast covering Medicine, philosophy, Earth, and about 10 others. Fantastic. I have been replying all these in rotation to go to sleep for the last 10 years or so. Karl is comedy gold...

“And somebody had wroted”

It always urked me that Gervais always presumed he knew everything. What Karl was talking about is a phenomenon known as "Gaze Cuing". It's a survival mechanism that humans developed to escape predators back in the paleolithic era. I had to write a paper on it at university.

yeah but he's still right. Its not a sixth sense.

Karl has mentioned dinosaurs quite a few times. He actually had a segment on channel 4 called 3 minute wonder where he mused on dinosaurs in museums. Not sure if you can find that clip but his response to an angry critic of his dinosaur segment is in season 3 episode 4. ‘Who is Karl pilkington and why have I just wasted 5 minutes of my life listening to his cretinous thoughts’

Spatial awareness is the term you're looking for.

It’s cool that you picked up on him looking like Something from the Flintstones as Ricky is a massive fan and said that the look and feel he wanted for this series.

I’m really enjoying your reactions to episode 1 of ‘The Ricky Gervais Show’ and your analysis of Karl’s assertions. I can’t wait to watch the rest of them. If you haven’t already, I’d love to see your reactions to Ricky’s Golden Globes performances. Keep making videos

Talking about senses, one must also consider the massive spectrum of light and sound that we can't see or hear. We only see and hear a very small fraction of the light and sound spectrums respectively.

@@DevonDaVinci Yes. But perhaps that's on purpose. We are supposed to be having a human experience. If we did fully open all of our senses, we would become something beyond human. I think everyone has the capability to do so. Turning that spark of spirit inside all of us into a raging bonfire and elevating ourselves beyond the physical realm may actually be the purpose of life.

You know I have series 1-3 of the Ricky Gervais Show and I've only laughed at them more by watching your reaction to them. The XFM podcasts are drop dead hilarious and merge the animated show with the original content of the radio station.

These guys were podcasting before it was a thing. The ogs

Welcome to season 1 👌👌🔥

It is true that we have at least nine senses. 1. Vision (Eyesight) 2. Audition (Hearing) 3. Gustation (Taste) 4. Tactition (Touch) 5. Olfaction (Hearing) 6. Thermoception (Temperature) 7. Nociception (Pain) 8. Proprioception (Awareness of the body's position) 9. Equilibrioception (Balance and gravity) Just found your videos, sir. I like the way you laugh at things and your little interjections (like the one about the senses). Keep it up!

There is actually a video of Karl visiting the house and you see the flies in the video. Check it out

It was hilarious :D

Thanks a lot. Good to know! 💪🏿

also the Americans did send a chimp into space and they wanted to research if higher beings could not only survive in space but also function and not just be groggy the whole time, so they trained the chimp to pull levers and be given a banana pellet (not actual banana) or be given an electric shock. so this is very much true x 100 percent x

here's a crazy idea devon.. just watch them in order. they are numbered

Holiday = Christmas And then there's vacation.

never liked ricky gervais but the greatness of karl has changed that single handed

U making my day you bastard.

Karl went back to the house and filmed it the video is called "karl revisits the house of 3000 flies" its not a long video though maybe put it at the start of the next ricky gervais show video??

We know where are hands are. We can sense heat as well. We can also do things like hear our own name above a crowded room talking. And we do sense when someone is behind us.

Good content👍keep it up

Dude, you need to check out “Brian’s Brain.” Funny episode. 😄

Fun fact, the story about the flies and condom is actually here on KZread. It was recorded. I can't remember the title but watch for yourself, its actually a bit creepy I agree with Karl here. Edit: I just realised someone else has already pointed this out.

That thing with the dinosaurs you were looking for might not be in this cartoon form by the way. The shows were originally audio only radio shows/podcasts, and they didnt turn them all into cartoons, so you might not find any dino ones. Can't remember every episode though, so I could be wrong.

Like a bunch of squares talking to each other? But it is a bunch of squares talking to each other

Even having an idea of the passing of time is a sense, technically. You can sense the passing of time, even if you can't do it accurately, you still know it's happening.

I thinking Karl is thinking about the Predator/Prey situation with Prey having a sense which makes them think they are being watched like the expression "having eyes in the back of your head".

Gold

Just in case no one has recommended this to you yet, if you are enjoying these as much as you seem to be, you ought to check out the original XFM radio shows from when they first met Karl. They are around on youtube, around an hour long each (since the songs are cut out), spanning 4 series at 92 episodes total. I guess I wouldn't suggest you do reaction content to these (especially since it's radio, so no video...) but it's their best stuff. As good as all their content since then has been, the XFM shows are really the where the comedy gold of this trio is to be found.

being aware of limbs with your eyes closed us called proprioception, people who have damage to areas of the brain such as the cerebellum can lose that and it makes tasks as simple as reaching out and picking up a pen super hard

I FEEL BAD!!!

Balance is also a sense

about 20 senses i think,he means more of a supernatural sense lol

The rocket went left

You should react to Extras

You should do a da Vinci watch to afterlife on Netflix by Ricky gervais

As someone who has watched all of the Ricky Gervais show I think it’s great to see how someone else reacts to it. Also every episode of season one is here (All good quality). Hopefully they are not blocked in certain countries. m.kzread.info/head/PLHpk73eL4ES-iUhhaJ50-teyWTFXjceX3

Doesn't sensing heat fall under the category of touching? The heated particles come into contact with you and that's what you feel.

The XFM shows start off quite slow because Karl took a while to get confident speaking on air, but towards the middle/end of series 1 (their first stint on air) he starts to come out of his shell and it's absolute gold! I remember one of the funny episodes when Karl started talking about his neighbour, and when Ricky and Steve managed to get hold of his old school exam results. Anyway, don't want to spoil it but just wanted to warn you that the first episodes (Saturday shows on XFM) were slow at first and the audio wasn't the best, but trust me, it gets so much better and series 2 is just some of the funniest shit I've ever heard on radio.

Balance is a sense. . . Knowing up from down in the context of living on earth. How about pheromones? That sense is similar to smell but so is taste so why not define all three?

The ability to know were your arms and legs are without looking is a sense? are you related to Karl? lol

He was meaning if everything was wiped out how did we exist? Technically we still live with dinosaurs. That is what Turtles are Alligators are. And we still have birds that come from them. Look at an ostrich.

lol you say theres a sense so we know where are arms and legs are without looking.....yeah its called the nervous system.

"The ability to know where our arms and legs are, even though we aren't looking at them" isn't a new sense, it's called "Touch" or "Feeling" because you can feel your arms and legs, because they are attached to you. You have had a real Pilkington moment there, mate.

Proprioception, the kinesthetic sense, provides the parietal cortex of the brain with information on the movement and relative positions of the parts of the body. Neurologists test this sense by telling patients to close their eyes and touch their own nose with the tip of a finger. Assuming proper proprioceptive function, at no time will the person lose awareness of where the hand actually is, even though it is not being detected by any of the other senses. Proprioception and touch are related in subtle ways, and their impairment results in surprising and deep deficits in perception and action.

Don't bother with xfm...the TRGS is like a scripted tightly edited "best of" of xfm ... I love the show but what annoys me is in the scripted version (TRGS) Ricky wrote much of the "intelligent" stuff like where he talks about Pavlovian Conditioning or breaking down Karl's story with "logic"...but in XFM he was a moron... he was just rude to Karl and that was it and laughed about it ...but ofc when it came to scripting he actually created a different Ricky ...a smart one lol and the show got big in the US and now people see him as almost on par with Dawkins and Co... it's laughable
