i love how zac realized how freakish the costume looks in motion and took every opportunity to flail his horrible disproportionate limbs whenever possible
i adore the self awareness tommy shriggly lacks. he is a self-improvement, self-help, mental health influencer (of nebulous influence?) who built his life through luck, nepotism, and overt harm to people around him, and on top of it all his signature catchphrase is to get people to APPLAUD HIM. not "give yourself a clap!", no, TOMMY needs the claps, TOMMY needs your approval
You could just put Zac Oyama in a different costume every week and this show would probably break every Nielsen ratings record ever recorded. And it’s only streaming on Dropout.
The thought of this guy hunting you down in the middle of the night overseas in a third world country screaming about the last coke is actually pretty friggin terrifying 😂
The line before it, he seems to slightly introduce the accent and then on this line, he leans all the way into it only to immediately drop it again. So good.
My favorite moment in the episode is when, after slowly learning more and more about Tommy's horrific crimes that led to him being dishonorably discharged, Vic asks him his dream job and it's "being in the military." Even broke Vic
At the risk of taking this comedy sketch too seriously, Tommy is like, literally every male self-help guru ever: grotesque physique, clearly miserable, self-congratulatory, horrifying past, and only successful due to luck and lucky connections, but yet thoroughly convinced he has the meaning of life As a guy who’s spent a lot of time in the mental health field, I’ve seen sooooo many Tommys. This sketch is transcendent 😂
Zac & Vic are to be treasured. She plays off of these wacky characters so well & this is among my favorites. I unironically like the lil clap song. Like, if someone randomly started doing that then I would have smiled even before seeing this. It’s somewhat catchy to me.
lol. The end, "is that 100,000 dollars?" I love the thought that this guys just lucks into success wherever he goes. He's gonna have another 16,000 dollars soon.
Your legs are numb. You're bleeding out, military fatigues soaked red. Going into shock. Tommy is looking over you, face caked in mud and gore. "C'mon... give a little clap." "Did you take the last coke? Gimme a little clap." Your trembling hands come together in a weak, soundless applause, as Tommy's tiny hands descend in a pinching motion towards your weeping, wide-open eyes.
This is an absolutely piece of art - well done!! I was dying at all the great edits - the reverse to the mirror dimension… the final silent head nod 😂😂😂
I love that you guys realized how much happiness and smiles this character brings to people and y’all said word we finna make you smile more 😎😎 bc that’s just who we are 🔫
I find this inspiring. The man has turned his life around. I can only imagine how dark it must have been for him - and now he's spreading positivity around the world. Tom I salute you 🙏
3:23 Since it is pretty obvious that this is VIP episode was a work of art that should be considered a decade-defining great, there is a lot to discuss. One thing I haven't seen people talk about is the shift to a pitty-ing concern in Vic's voice as they ask repeatedly about Tommy's divorces. They seem really sad for him.
There’s a good chance this show and characters are all entities in Hell using these characters to commune with humanity. What the goal of this one is I couldn’t tell you but it must be silly.
It is insane. Is that some posh thing? I have never seen something like that in my life. Do they teach this in acting? I tried to do it but I just can't... it is too hard to move my shoulder up before swinging side like that.
I am giving a little clap.
This one’s Hank fs
The power of positivity is so beautiful
IT'S A THE VLOGBROTHERS
I have read Hank's 2 books and 2 of John's books and I am honored
It's oddly comforting to know you guys enjoy dropout as much as the rest of us
😦
I love how they both immediately break when he says he turned it into $16000
Honestly an all-time great improv moment
I think what made me laugh was that even he seemed taken aback by his own statement.
he is so casual about finding 100k but really lights up when he speaks of 16k 😂
I turned into sixteen THOUsand dollars
I cackled, so good 🙌🙏👏
i love how zac realized how freakish the costume looks in motion and took every opportunity to flail his horrible disproportionate limbs whenever possible
zac is genuinely one of the funniest people on dropout
i adore the self awareness tommy shriggly lacks. he is a self-improvement, self-help, mental health influencer (of nebulous influence?) who built his life through luck, nepotism, and overt harm to people around him, and on top of it all his signature catchphrase is to get people to APPLAUD HIM. not "give yourself a clap!", no, TOMMY needs the claps, TOMMY needs your approval
I can relate
Also, a psychopath murderer
Pretty on brand for a lot of these self help gurus.
Step 1 is usually “Be rich and have a lot of free time!”
Dont forget his mild schizophrenia
@@HenriqueErzingerThat was just a one time thing. Let it rest.
When I watched this episode I nearly shat myself at
"what's your dream job"
"To be in the military"
LMAOOO
Listen he'll be good this time around 😭
It’s so pathetic and so funny
His uncle the General will have his back this time too
mine was 'turned it into sixteen THOUSAND dollars'.
The delivery of “I invested it and turned into 16 *thousand* dollars” kills me every single time
"you were dishonorably discharged for... killing your entire platoon?"
"one by one... in the middle of the night"
And then at the end
Vic: If you weren't doing all this, what do you think your dream job would be?
Tommy: In the military.
In the dead of the night XD

Nah it's also in places where random ppl just upload it with a backing track so you never need Dropout.
@@theprecipiceofreason except you should support Dropout b/c it is not a big corporation owned streaming platform and these people deserve it.
@@besthobbitnah
@@SgtGoofasswhy? It’s literally the way they keep the lights on. It’s a business after all.
Ikr? I don't care what anyone says this guy is a comedic genius
It's the emphasis he puts on it when he says 'sixteen 'thousand' dollars' that gets me every time
It sounds like Zac thought he was saying a bigger number but immediately realised he had not
one of zac oyama's best performances i must say
That was Tommy Shriggly, but I understand your confusion
That was his darkest moment...ok
@@melomet3789I don't, these two look nothing alike
The thought of this guy hunting you down in the middle of the night overseas in a third world country screaming about the last coke is actually pretty friggin terrifying 😂
He was in the coast guard!
😂
Once he gets those tiny hands on you, it’s over. Get clapped.
he looks like he can sprint on all fours, it's horrifying
In my mind he was silent
"I turned that into 16,000 dollars" is the hardest I've laughed in a while
16,000$ is a lot of money.
Not compared to the 84,000 he lost by "investing" the 100k
@@NonsenseWithGlasses what... he turned 100k into 16 THOUSAND dollars... what don't you get?
@@yy3hhright… what don’t people get. 16 is SO MICH BIGGER than ONE???🙄🤭
@@NonsenseWithGlasses somehow i think the humor was lost on you :(
@@conker9529 16 is like... at least 12 ones. That's a lot of ones.
The sound of his tiny hands giving his little claps gets to me
so glad you included “it was as daAHRk as it gets”
The line before it, he seems to slightly introduce the accent and then on this line, he leans all the way into it only to immediately drop it again. So good.
My favorite moment in the episode is when, after slowly learning more and more about Tommy's horrific crimes that led to him being dishonorably discharged, Vic asks him his dream job and it's "being in the military." Even broke Vic
How dare you leave out the best line from the entire episode: dream job if money didn’t matter
I was waiting for it 😂😂😂
Being in the military
"Is that 100 thousands dollars?" Like he just keeps finding it lol
At the risk of taking this comedy sketch too seriously, Tommy is like, literally every male self-help guru ever: grotesque physique, clearly miserable, self-congratulatory, horrifying past, and only successful due to luck and lucky connections, but yet thoroughly convinced he has the meaning of life
As a guy who’s spent a lot of time in the mental health field, I’ve seen sooooo many Tommys. This sketch is transcendent 😂
That was most likely his inspiration for the improv of this character
Same it’s funny cause it’s real
He’s giving Andrew Tate if he was more incompetent
@@TryinaD Well, Tommy isn’t in prison right now, and Tate is, so I don’t know which one is more incompetent one, seems to me it might be Tate.
@@Arrakiz666 tate is in prison because he lives in Romania. Tommy isn’t because he has connections in the US
Zac & Vic are to be treasured.
She plays off of these wacky characters so well & this is among my favorites.
I unironically like the lil clap song. Like, if someone randomly started doing that then I would have smiled even before seeing this.
It’s somewhat catchy to me.
and this is how Tommy stays in business
“Friendly fire situation?”
“I was in the canteen…”
lol. The end, "is that 100,000 dollars?" I love the thought that this guys just lucks into success wherever he goes. He's gonna have another 16,000 dollars soon.
Or his Uncle is supporting him.
Top tier edit! I hope you have the luck of someone who finds 100 thousand dollars and turns it into 16 thousand dollars!!!
The little wiggle Vic does at 1:05 gets me every time.
The music is so good, honestly. I'd love more videos of VIP set to music to really set some fun vibes.
And then from there, everything was great 👍🏼 *nods silently for eternity
I like the tiny earring.
Is the earring tiny, or is it regular sized for his tiny ear? These are the real questions!
He is a mentaly powerful Man
His confidence is inspiring.
I am borderline delusional with fever and the flu, and this video legit lifted my spirits. I'm givin a liddle clap
This edit helped me get out of my own way
Your legs are numb. You're bleeding out, military fatigues soaked red. Going into shock. Tommy is looking over you, face caked in mud and gore.
"C'mon... give a little clap."
"Did you take the last coke? Gimme a little clap."
Your trembling hands come together in a weak, soundless applause, as Tommy's tiny hands descend in a pinching motion towards your weeping, wide-open eyes.
One of my fav moments is when Vic asked if his mom was in the military pilot when he talked about his family in the military and he says “no, why?”
get your head out of your asses and give zhedley a lil clap!
all eps of VIP have been great. but this is absolutely the best. zac is incredible.
every "little clap" was not the same but they had the exact same spirit.
the claps syncing up perfectly with stand by me is really sending me
"You can have nine, ten, ...sixteen divorces.'
"Do you have 'nine, ten, sixteen' divorces Tommy?"
love that she goes even higher on the "18 divorces" like she's talking to a baby, these two are perfect scene partners
This is a god-tier edit; thank you for your service.
My claps are little but my love for Zac Oyama continues to grow! 🤣
I'm not a devious man by nature, but when that's your darkest moment you gotta give it a little clap
I sooo desperatly want a spin off comedy series about the origins of tommy shrigley
This is an absolutely piece of art - well done!!
I was dying at all the great edits - the reverse to the mirror dimension… the final silent head nod 😂😂😂
This is the greatest stuff I've seen in a long time! So good, I might give a little clap! So good, I might give a little clap! 👏 👏 👏
I'd absolutely watch a full-length feature about Tommy Shriggly.
I felt empowered by his story so I gave him a little clap 👏
Gets better every time. You get a little clap for this edit
I didn't see the shadow dimension parts coming! Incredible.
This was the most unhinged thing I have ever seen. I genuinely believed she was crying and regretting her life.
That 16k sounded like a lot more then 100k.
What an inspiration! We are truly blessed to live in the same world as him!
I love how the music matches his little claps
I actually love him so much he’s such a happy psycho
This took perfection, and turned it into the sublime.
This is the best character,
This episode made me laugh harder than I had in **MONTHS**
Her shoulder roll at 1:05 is the hottest thing ever.
Stuff of nightmares. I'm for it
My life has been better since discovering tommy 😂
I would watch an all Zac season of VIP
He is so inspiring
Oh my, thank you so much for making this
I love that you guys realized how much happiness and smiles this character brings to people and y’all said word we finna make you smile more 😎😎 bc that’s just who we are 🔫
I find this inspiring. The man has turned his life around. I can only imagine how dark it must have been for him - and now he's spreading positivity around the world. Tom I salute you 🙏
Gosh, I hope Zac, Vic, and Sam all see this

Well your theory makes more sense than mine. I thought they were just actors but something about that doesn't add up.
this is beautiful
Zac Oyama is great.
do you ever feel like you're on acid even though you're stone cold sober
This was very healing
The swing forward heel plant is a thing of beauty.
It is insane. Is that some posh thing? I have never seen something like that in my life. Do they teach this in acting? I tried to do it but I just can't... it is too hard to move my shoulder up before swinging side like that.
I am so terrified of this creature and I see no resemblance to Zac Oyama. What is happening.
I love this.
Zac is a comedic genius🤣
Hhh oh my god, this is so good. The frickin ending and just - everything 😂😂😂
I think I met this guy at the gym.
I turned it into 16 THOUSAND dollars x perfect comedic timing
"I found it in my head."
"Really?"
"I found it in my heart"
"Okay"
"I found it in the world."
"The world"
BARS
The skills to mash up that orchestral theme to Gnarls Barkley is actually “crazy”
Bravo.
The bit where he goes "do you feel better?" After pouring Protein Powder in her mouth is one of the best laughs I've had in a long time!
This guy look like he could run two miles in 13 minutes
I have been seeing this abomination of film makeup and props in shorts for a week I think youtube wants to brainwash me into giving this boi a clap
I have no idea what I just watched. But I loved it
The conviction of him turning 100 grand into $16,000 makes me die laughing every single time I see it
Thank yew for this 🙌🏼💕
I found 100’000 dollars and invested it and made 16’000 dollars 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love this character! So funny
The greatest achievement part was the best and you didn't include it!
The backing music fits the dancing and singing so well
This reminded me so much of the Ellen interview on Ellen. My cheeks hurt from smiling so much!
Ellen DeGeneres WISHES she was as funny as Vic Michaelis.
@@Hey-Its-Dingo that so far from my point, if you’ve ever seen that interview you’d know it’s not funny because of Ellen lmao
ART
You left out my favorite part! His dream job if money wasn't a factor
This is inter dimensional cable type show tbh
Water is actually bad for you
this could have been a successful SNL skit in the old days....
Thank you
That was as daARHHK as it gets.
I think I just found my lost little bro. 👏
Dude attacked the wrong side, but family connections helped. True american stories.
The backing music makes this amazing
