Of course it was scripted. Think about it for a second. Imagine how embarrassing it would be if they made him do that without telling his agent in advance or knowing if he could. If he couldn't, that would look disastrous for him and he is a guest on the show so they can't risk that.
I actually listened to an interview with him and he said unless it's going to be potentially deeply offensive they don't ask guests permission. That's why you quite often get those slightly awkward moments where grahams trying to extract stories from guests who don't know what he's after ( which you rarely see on American TV- people know what photos are coming up or anecdotes). Ultimately, if things don't go to plan they can just cut it out.
Isn't that kind of like a man thinking someone like Nicki Minaj(?) is attractive? Extremely mediocre at what they do, generally get fame by taking their clothes off and seems about as rich in personality as the average tree.
How how what how whyyyy I keep seeing you omgggg I see you everywhere!!! You always commenting on buzzfeed, skin deep videos and now here whattttt how do you have time to watch and comment on everything
SarahEmilieStorm glad someone notice it .ease is Awesome thing to have some people have disease some have dis-ease in performing simple task, special children we called them. Life should be EASe
I love how Tom immediately backs him up as if he was there. He's like "No that's him, guys," immediately. He never hesitates or thinks about it, he just refuses to even consider the fact that it was photoshopped.
Look at her facial expression!!! He doesn't flinch or show any restrain at all. He does it with such ease. He even smile a bit and no shaking whatsoever!!!
People need to stop being so mean about Zac's attitude... he is really shy and doesn't really like showing off. He is a different person when he is acting compared to real life....
I agree. When you see him in interviews throughout the years, he seems genuinely embarrassed about the way people scream over him, ogle him, try to grab him, talk show hosts speaking about his body or whatever.
SAFiA MUSA 😂 I had the same reaction. I was on the bus and literally yelled out "that wasn't a pole dance!" and pretended like it wasn't me after I realised what I had said
Kind of a dumb remark, if I may; everything is "easy" when you train for it. You become good at something by practicing it. And I would add, although this is indeed not that of a difficult figure to realise, it still requires lots of practice to complete it.
it's easier than it looks, if you watch he uses his elbow to hold his body up by diging it into his stomach, still cool but a lot easier than the proper human flag
Yeah, he's said before that he's actually shy in real life. People expect him to be this macho outgoing talkative guy like he plays in movies, but he says he's not that.
Tom didn't doubt Zac for a second
Tom is crazy into weightlifting.
You mean Tom is crazy into weightlifters.
killerblingxbl I'd say the rock is crazy into weightlifting. Tom is just a very fit man.
Or maybe Tom is just crazy.
Damian Rhea Tom is not gay, I met him when filming Top Gun... straight. Plays the gay card for ticket sales.
I love how Tom automatically knows that Zac was actually doing it
@@Jacobbmx01 this one doesnt take much strenth, but their is a position which does
Tom does know from the stance whether there are wires or none.
he is the Man, can see the difference between fake ones and real ones
I love how Tom Cruise has done so many crazy physical stunts that he can immediately tell that it’s for real.
Really.......that's it right.
We're not sure of her name. CLASSIC GRAHAM
It's Graham,
It's Graham,
It's Graham,
Who else but Graham?
Zack is so humble oh my gosh 😍
or his ;)
Gokul Perumal wow such a lack of comments for so many likes😂
Pretty offensive. Anyway, I'm sure Graham can't do a human flag and many men and women can:-)))
So awkward some people really don't understand when grahams sarcasm comes into play; Zac not realizing he's being serious about the pole.
nah he obviously knew in advance like theyre not gona make him do something he doesnt wana do
Kt1410 sorry bro

Daisy K.J. Cheers that's nice to know
Graham knows what we want.
Isabella McLellan In fact, he knows what he wants
Isn't that kind of like a man thinking someone like Nicki Minaj(?) is attractive? Extremely mediocre at what they do, generally get fame by taking their clothes off and seems about as rich in personality as the average tree.
cohletrain someone is obviously mad they can't make their body horizontal by gripping a pole😂
antoine St-Roch we're only human😂
xxRINGAHA hell yeah😂
Efron is wearing that suit very well indeed. 😊
TheMovieMyLife Indeedy.
TheMovieMyLife a trash bag would look good on him
GET OFF OF UA-cam I SEE YOU FRICKIN EVERYWHERE
STOP USING BOTS
How how what how whyyyy I keep seeing you omgggg I see you everywhere!!! You always commenting on buzzfeed, skin deep videos and now here whattttt how do you have time to watch and comment on everything
He does it with such ease!!! He doesn't even shake?!?!?!
SarahEmilieStorm glad someone notice it .ease is Awesome thing to have some people have
disease some have dis-ease in performing simple task, special children we called them.
Life should be EASe
absolutely makes it look so easy
I love how Tom immediately backs him up as if he was there. He's like "No that's him, guys," immediately. He never hesitates or thinks about it, he just refuses to even consider the fact that it was photoshopped.
I just love how "cooperative" Zac is. Bless him!! ;)
DearMakeUpDiary i
Tom Cruise showing admiration to Zac Efron for a moment. 👏👏👏 Both of them are awesome! 😍😍😍
We want Graham to host Oscars!!!!!
Yes!
tOTALLY
He'd be an awesome host! Does he have enough pull in American media to do it though?
IT WOULD BE THE BEST OSCAR EVERRRRR
he needs to
Look at her facial expression!!! He doesn't flinch or show any restrain at all. He does it with such ease. He even smile a bit and no shaking whatsoever!!!
People need to stop being so mean about Zac's attitude... he is really shy and doesn't really like showing off. He is a different person when he is acting compared to real life....
Yes exactly. He only want to do all these in films and photos. He is not a show off person like other Hollywood heroes.
His dancing in the end of new years eve was fabulous in it:)
Yes you know because you sat in the dark and watched a lot of his movies. LOL!
I agree. When you see him in interviews throughout the years, he seems genuinely embarrassed about the way people scream over him, ogle him, try to grab him, talk show hosts speaking about his body or whatever.
"we're not sure of her name" haha
i have never seen someone more perfect, mentally and physically, than zac efron and this just makes my statement more true.
His compliment to Cruise in this show was amazing. You could tell he really looks up to Cruise.
He's always so generous to other actors in interviews, it's really heart warming.
Is anyone gonna talk about that almost crying voice at the end "I'm so happy I can still do that"
I love when Americans come on Graham's show and just don't know what hit them.
Definitely not a pole dance. A pole pose. No dance.
Matdy James well he danced before the pose? No
No. He made a facial expression and at most wiggled slightly. No dance.
Well what's your qualifications of dance?
Every natural movement in your life is also a dance. Kung Fu definition.
he definitely did more than a wiggle.
He's making it look like it's the easiest thing in the world. Look at his smiling face while doing it. Damn.
Saw zac and saw the pole
Clicked the video as fast as i could 😂
Woah, another Seraphine with a mutual adoration for Zac.
Zac did that like it was a walk in the park. Talk about abs of steel....
So impatient for James McAvoy to be back on this show!!
I knoooooow right???
yessss me too!
Atomic Blonde is on it's way.
Wait for him to be in another movie
Ikr!!!!
He made it look as if he was floating, I'm shook by his strength 😂😂😂
‘I’m not calling you a liar, but there’s a pole right over there’ I LOVE GRAHAM OMG
Exactly what we all wanted to see.
God Bless His Abs.
Shamita Sharon its not his abs that do the work, its the obliques
Its all in the core man. With a strong core you can do all this crazy things
tom is so humble
why did he just do that so CASUALLY??!! I cant even stand up casually
Because it's easy to do ? It's called Cheat human flag for a reason..it's not a proper way to do human flag.
this is the quality content I expect from the Graham Norton Show
I don't always start a UA-cam browsing session with Graham Norton clips, but when I get there, I stay there for a VERY long time.
i feel trolled, that was NOT a pole dance!
SAFiA MUSA good enough for me.
SAFiA MUSA 😂 I had the same reaction. I was on the bus and literally yelled out "that wasn't a pole dance!" and pretended like it wasn't me after I realised what I had said
A pole POSE.
SAF MUSA well I feel poled about it
Matt Bambom It's an easier version of the human flag pose in calisthenics. I think it's called the clutch flag pose or atleast that's what I call it.
Oh. My. Lord. Istg Zac is just insanely talented
Tom was so fangirling Zac, they should do an action movie together
I hate how much I really wanted to see zach pole dance
He made it seem so easy. I can't even get off the couch
Amazing! Also that lady in blue is so lucky. Sitting between Tom Cruise and Zac Efron??? Wow!😍
This one couch idea is the best thing any talk show host has ever come up with............Graham is adorable!
Ok it's a draw between Zac Efron's move and Tom Cruise's looks both are incredibly gravity defying! :O
Yep
Okay,so is it that easy to do that?..help me out here....it looked effortless...
P.S. He looks so good in the suit.
Jazz It Up l l Design Geek doubt it
Of course it's easy if you're trained like he is...
Kind of a dumb remark, if I may; everything is "easy" when you train for it. You become good at something by practicing it. And I would add, although this is indeed not that of a difficult figure to realise, it still requires lots of practice to complete it.
it actually is pretty easy to do
it's easier than it looks, if you watch he uses his elbow to hold his body up by diging it into his stomach, still cool but a lot easier than the proper human flag
Zac is so shy with Tom there 😂
you know he is a pro when he makes sure the pole is sturdy! lol
He looked so calm and not even red in the face while he held himself up
Graham makes hosting look effortless. It's a skill. Celebrities are really not used to 'having fun!'
The look of actual fear on Zac's face when Graham says "We're not sure of her name" XD XD
Zac efron and tom cruise are both pretty boys with good looks, and got a killer body, who are into action! zac is the next tom cruise i think.
Zac Efron is such a stud
Zac Efron makes my day😍. He's so good😭
Zac is 😍😍😍
it actually breaks my heart that Zac Efron is all grown up and manly. Makes me feel so old.
You can tell Tom want's to recruit him into Scientology
well.. I don't think it's "the church" where he would like to take him.
Just the rectory?
Pokemontas Wtf is Scientology?
Jesus stoppp
move on
Tom Cruise is like "I could still do that if not for all these evil space ghosts in my body"
Nobody talks about how tom cruise handsomeness in that age TF . He aging like fine wine
Zac Efron in a suit😍🔥
Insane core strength. I'm impressed.
the one and only Zac
Tom Cruise: Nicely done🤝
oh wow Zac is just the definition of adorable...
You had me at "Zac Efron Pole Dances"
Tom is so cool about it! " yeah, he's doing it" ok. That means Tom probably does it too! Give him a round!
Graham is such an instigator "do you want some music" 😂😂
Is anybody going to talk about how they had the song ready 😂 before he even said it completely 😂
Zac's face at 0:11 made me chuckle.
Wow,he almost cried when Tom Cruise said Nicely done
He made it look so effortless
So cute! Zac is SO talented 😩👏🏽!! ♥️
And now I'm thinking about Zac doing exactly that, just casually shirtless. 😍 Thanks, Graham.
He looks so uncomfortable 😂😂😂
He crying tears of joy that he can still do that
He seemed a little embarrassed so cute;)
Respect Zac! 💯
Zac is perfection..
Zack is so humble oh my gosh 😍
Does he have some slight social anxiety?
Asia Mayfield I could tell
That pole looked a little unsteady.
Gave me anxiety just watching tbh.
Yeah, he's said before that he's actually shy in real life. People expect him to be this macho outgoing talkative guy like he plays in movies, but he says he's not that.
He seemed really uncomfortable lol
Fairy Khamari haha that's funny dude
I suppose the adrenalin and the crowd in that moment is what made it better than the shoot.
Love you Zac
Why how is he so dreamy I can't I'm in love
what a man
"Not that I'm calling you a liar, but there's a pole right over there."
God damn Zac is buff! haha
when you earn Tom Cruise respect you Know you done something impossible
He made that look so easy, I struggle to get off my sofa
So effortless and perfect, it looks like a magic trick, wow!
Nice to see Efron & Cruise together. 😉
he made it look so easy
He so happened to be flipping through a magazine 😂😂
That was so smooth!!!
Zac Efron is a legend 😁
I thought this was real but Zack Efron looked like he was posing as a flag on that pole.
love zac efron
I think this made my year..😂😂
That's my Troy! 😍
1:37 he actually did it wow strong
This sparks joy 😁
0:36 If Tom Cruise says that's real, then it's real
woooooooow! best thing I saw today!!
Tom Cruise was so happy to see Zac on the pole 😅
He looks like a really cool dude, I'd like to meet him
Mucha ropa! Mucha ropa! Mucha ropa!
😍😍😍😍
