My nan passed away a few years ago and a fella shaked hands with my father saying sorry for the loss of your wife, while my mother sat next to him. We all burst our holes laughing
I had a late friend who went to the funeral of a friend's father- when it came his turn to offer condolences, he got so stressed and flummoxed, he offered his congratulations to the widow.
Another deeply unpopular member of the extended family was a horrendous, racist- when he was being buried, a black clergyman gave the service and was bewildered why the first three rows of mourners were falling out of the pews and into the aisle, howling with laughter.
My mother attended my late great aunts funeral a number of years back and told me her poor husband fell into the actual grave after having a few jars while the priest was doing the graveside reading
Liamo Curran Sorry to let you down. It is a very true story. I understand what it's like to be in a serious situation where laughter is the last thing on mosts minds. There's something about getting the idea of laughing into your mind about such situations that makes the desire to laugh even more desireable. And I don't think it's disrespect
Liamo Curran what I mean is if you can't help yourself, of which there are very many, even in other serious situations apart from funerals, I don't think it's being disrespectful in comparison to doing it intentionally or on purpose. Cheers!
.... I'm really hoping you're Irish (we have a sick, dark, wicked, ASTOUNDING sense of humour), so that you're ok with me cracking up reading that. I mean it's basically a Father Ted skit. I was very, very sick for a long time. They had multiple video conferences with doctors all around the world but we STILL don't know what the hell is going on. One day though, my doctor said "Listen... if we don't do the surgery, you'll be dead in a month. If we DO do the surgery, it's extremely unlikely you'd survive that too, you would have a 20% chance of surviving surgery." And although I knew it was a huge deal, if I kept making other people laugh I was totally at peace If you are offended though, I actually genuinely am sorry!!
@blakemcgillick oisin, how old is the priest??... Tommy & his friends were 14yrs of age at the time. Perhaps it was a young priest? But often they're old & crusty!! (And I think he's middle aged, like me! And when you're middle aged a lot of the older generation have died off already... Or retired!!).
I was at a funeral with my late mother many years ago and she past a unfavorable comment about a person coming down the aisle. Such was the ferocity of her stuck-up attitude that I started to laugh. The worst was that she realising what she said started to laugh to as did the woman sitting on the other side of her. Not only was it getting bad, the pew we were in squeaked with the movement of the three of us desperately trying to hold it in. The people behind could see our shoulders moving up and down and then the minister caught us. Oh dear. The mischief she would cause at funerals... Bless her x
I am in tears!!! Out of control! I cant stop laughing. I went to Catholic school with the Irish kids. Nothing is funnier than inappropriate laughter. We grew up supressing a laugh at every turn or be killed. The last funeral I went to I had to leave in a hurry. I almost busted out laughing. Tommy fucking nails it!
My grandmother, her husband, and myself went to the funeral of a lifelong friends' wife. He approached and welcomed us...my g. Forgot his name, then forgot his wife's name...I caught her eye,, and we came apart with hysterical laughter ....we had to be led from the church, laughing uncontrollably....not our most shining moment....but very funny
We always had to go to mass on the First Friday.. other Roman Catholics know what first Friday mass is... In my catholic elementary school we were right beside Our Lady of Lourdes church so we were always going over for confession and mass .. When I first watched this on the comedy channel a few years ago I was laughing so hard that my stomach muscles were killing me.. who can't relate to being a kid with your friends and your class and something sets you off ..Ohhh man that "Knock knock" Who's there..not Mickey's Da!! Omg I was crying laughing... Love him so much and I totally agree with you he's got to be the funniest guy..
Haha, that one-way corridor was like in my primary school! Minus the Headmaster striding out from the wall... I sometimes see Tommy Tiernan walking around near where I live. It's weird to see the contrast between how normal he actually is and then the mad-man he is onstage! "Baaaa." XD
My aunt after she died was in a funeral home everyone was there to pay their respects, now when I'm nervous I laugh 😂, so the priest starts the rosary and I burst out laughing and couldent stop so then everyone else starts to laugh the priest starts to laughing so everyone is laughing for no reason what's so ever it was one of those times u never forget
This happened to me🤣and to this day it was the most happiest day of my life tear's were flowing down my face with the laughing while trying to not get caught,,and all it was that set me off was a silly stupid looking fellas glasses fell off when walking down from the alter
I got the giggles at my grandmother's funeral when I was 14 because I heard someone whisper "imagine the priests robe fell of and he was wearing a thong"
lol. We had teachers like that. A school like that. You had to walk on a particular side. Right side. And imposing teachers like that! That would pounce out of nowhere
oh god i know exactly what he means by laughing at a funeral...especially at a funeral of someone u didnt really know. its so incredibly inappropriate, but that makes u wanna laugh even harder!
Me and my sister started pissing ourselves at my grandads wake because I’d said it was our first wake and my uncles new girlfriend just sat with us awkwardly not knowing what to do and we found it absaloutky hilarious
This was so cruel because my sister and I are massive fans then had to go to a funeral. For a guy in my TINY school's MOTHER. We didn't find it funny obviously but we had this in our heads and we were terrified of it happening to us. So of course, it did. Thankfully her friends knew it was coming and slyly switched seats so we were apart. Damnit, Tiernan!!!!🤣🤣🤣
@MCSHLURRY Irvine Welsh wrote Trainspotting. Apparently, glenclosed thinks that Tommy Tiernan copied some of his material from it. However, I've read the novel before and I've never seen Tommy plagiarise any of it.
eehhhh hello?? anybody in there?? knock knock..hello??? Ive read both of Tommys books...ammmmmazing BTW, MAYBE YOU SHOULD READ THEM!!! Guys from Cork city are the funniest!!
@Thkmak84 Well I did. If you read the book you might remember the bit where Spud Murphy's mot puts vivks on his nob. That happened to Spud Murphy, not Tommy Tiernan. That's SPUD MURPHY, NOT TOMMY TIERNAN
First time I saw this I was at my school library. I died laughing! XD and people looked at me like I lost my mind! They'd be laughin' to if they had seen this, I had never seen anything more funny in my life! Tommy you're EPIC!!!!!!!
My nan passed away a few years ago and a fella shaked hands with my father saying sorry for the loss of your wife, while my mother sat next to him. We all burst our holes laughing

A forever memory unlocked right there🤣

Leonard O'Grady tr
@@Len0Grady holy shit lol
I don't care what anyone says about him, he has made us laugh and we are all better for it. We love ya Tommy, keep this going!!!!!!
My mother attended my late great aunts funeral a number of years back and told me her poor husband fell into the actual grave after having a few jars while the priest was doing the graveside reading
please tell me you're joking

There's something about getting the idea of laughing into your mind about such situations that makes the desire to laugh even more desireable. And I don't think it's disrespect
But, of course everybody thinks its disrespect, and they'd have every right to think so hahaha

Tiernan is so good, he can change clothes entirely in the middle of a joke, without anyone noticing!
Knock knock?
Who's there?
Not mickey's dad anyway! Epic 😂😂😂
I was asked "What are you doing with the house?" by a neighbour at my mother's funeral.
I still get a smile almost 10 years later when I think of it.
Such an Irish question lol
Tommy is the best comedian in the world hands down
"He was there. He'd blended into one of the stations of the Cross." 😂😂😂
I'm from his town and know the priest he's impersonating. Yes, he's real.
Well unless your from navan in meath which is where he went to school, then ur full of shit
@@kierboy1296 Yes I am from Navan and my aunt lives in troytown heights where Tommy lived.
cocospops never mind that miserable bollocks
This priest is still alive?? 😮
@blakemcgillick oisin, how old is the priest??... Tommy & his friends were 14yrs of age at the time. Perhaps it was a young priest? But often they're old & crusty!!

Top class. What a fantastic story teller!

The best Irish comedian by miles.
@SavageArfad Bollocks
Loose was such an amazing set! Luckily got to see it live
I saw him live last year, he was brilliant! 😂
Tommy's SO right..The ONE place you'll start laughing at is a funeral
A dude I know told me I laugh like Tommy Tiernan a while ago..I was so proud!
He's such a ledge,I want to see him live so bad!
I am in tears!!! Out of control! I cant stop laughing. I went to Catholic school with the Irish kids. Nothing is funnier than inappropriate laughter. We grew up supressing a laugh at every turn or be killed. The last funeral I went to I had to leave in a hurry. I almost busted out laughing.
Tommy fucking nails it!
I love this! Seen it about 50 times, so funny! I always get the giggles at funerals! :)
HighFlyingBird82 I saw it " on demand" and I laughed so hard.. because he's hilarious! I watched the whole stand up special about 4 times..
That’s going to be very scary at yours then.
seen him loads of times he is amazing...i love him
My grandmother, her husband, and myself went to the funeral of a lifelong friends' wife. He approached and welcomed us...my g. Forgot his name, then forgot his wife's name...I caught her eye,, and we came apart with hysterical laughter ....we had to be led from the church, laughing uncontrollably....not our most shining moment....but very funny

Tommy Tiernan is an absolute lunatic and very very funny
So happy that I'm related to this nationality!!!!!!!!!🇮🇪
where you from. if your from America I think you people have some serious issues
'Related to this nationality'?
No, you're not. You're either a part of it or you're not.
Are you fuck
Haha, that one-way corridor was like in my primary school! Minus the Headmaster striding out from the wall...
I sometimes see Tommy Tiernan walking around near where I live. It's weird to see the contrast between how normal he actually is and then the mad-man he is onstage!
"Baaaa." XD
My aunt after she died was in a funeral home everyone was there to pay their respects, now when I'm nervous I laugh 😂, so the priest starts the rosary and I burst out laughing and couldent stop so then everyone else starts to laugh the priest starts to laughing so everyone is laughing for no reason what's so ever it was one of those times u never forget
The 68 people that disliked this video are Mikey's family who don't find this funny.
69 now must be the one who almost fell over
Gearsdc
and number 70 is just someone with no sence of humor !
Tristan Schoenberger 71 is the principal
Fook ‘em!
The lefties will mock anything. Go away tiernan ya horrible bollox
Ye at only age 14yrs a funeral.
As a child, if u got the giggles at Mass at someone's behaviour, usually a child plays up. It was hard to stop ..
good gods... I got the giggles at my own mother's funeral... right after I slipped in some snow and nearly fell into the hole under the coffin!
I laughed so hard I cried! Reminds me of sitting in church with my sister and trying not to laugh.
Seen him in the GPO In Galway early days,, Proper comedy
Me too. Most Sunday night's for free..😂😊
i love the way he laughs at the end
"On and fucking on and on"😅😅
tommy is by far greatest comedian on the planet period
I started crying from laughing so hard right by the time that the knock-knock joke came up! xD
Thanks for sharing this, I needed a good laugh today!
Baaaaaaaaah!
Whenever he makes that noise, I piss myself
Tommy is probably my favorite comedian along with Dennis Leary. I can watch this over and over and laugh just as hard every time.
I only found Tommy Tiernan tonight but he's GREAT!
It's so Irish it was filmed with a potoato 😏💕 Thanks for the upload! ✨👌🏼
My fave male comedian
I'M CRYING. CANNOT STOP LAUGHING. "BAAAAAH". X'D

what would happen if you went the other way in the one way corridor? It would be the other way corridor sir Fuckin Hilarious
He's the funniest fucker In the world isn't he
I absolutely love this guy
I find it's the opposite... I saw him at the Montreal Just For Laughs festival and the whole place was in fucken tears! He was hilarious!
Tommy Tiernan is a comedic genius.
I nearly got a fit of the giggles at my Grand-father's funeral.
we had that one way corridor as well
Thats such a good priest impression:)
why arent the comments flooded with how did he magically change his tshirt
PadraicMc54 because it’s a compilation of the same routine at different shows
PadraicMc54 literally at that part the second I read it 😂
Took of jumper
How do the people answering this post not understand stand up tour DVDs?
Omg I’m laughing so much, I am crying.

Tommy your a saint bless you
If I could only have one friend. I'd choose him
This happened to me🤣and to this day it was the most happiest day of my life tear's were flowing down my face with the laughing while trying to not get caught,,and all it was that set me off was a silly stupid looking fellas glasses fell off when walking down from the alter
While at a funeral 🤣🤣

I got the giggles at my grandmother's funeral when I was 14 because I heard someone whisper "imagine the priests robe fell of and he was wearing a thong"

ehhhh haha brilliant! going to see him on the 21/12 cant wait! go tommy!!
Seeing him in Brighton soon! WOOHOO!
wow, we actually had a one way corridor at my school, and that was only a few years ago
lol. We had teachers like that. A school like that. You had to walk on a particular side. Right side. And imposing teachers like that! That would pounce out of nowhere
that's because this DVD was recorded in more than one venue.
"Knock knock!"
"Who's there?"
"Not Mickey's dad!"
XD
ahh tommy, you're a legend!! :D
hilarious!!!!!!
oh god i know exactly what he means by laughing at a funeral...especially at a funeral of someone u didnt really know. its so incredibly inappropriate, but that makes u wanna laugh even harder!
proud to be irish
Me and my sister started pissing ourselves at my grandads wake because I’d said it was our first wake and my uncles new girlfriend just sat with us awkwardly not knowing what to do and we found it absaloutky hilarious
I bet most of the irish population watching this has seen the awesomest movie the "boondock saints"
omg hes a fukin legend!!!! that laugh he does is contageous!!!!!!!
He takes the truth and makes it Fuking helarious!!!!!!
The shirt changes are obviouly edited from different gigs. The DVD is a montage of differents performances. Its not as weird as it might seem.
tommy tierman is fucking awesome, I wish I heard of him before...
This was so cruel because my sister and I are massive fans then had to go to a funeral. For a guy in my TINY school's MOTHER. We didn't find it funny obviously but we had this in our heads and we were terrified of it happening to us.
So of course, it did. Thankfully her friends knew it was coming and slyly switched seats so we were apart. Damnit, Tiernan!!!!🤣🤣🤣

@Thkmak84
Well I did.
If you read the book you might remember the bit where Spud Murphy's mot puts vivks on his nob.
That happened to Spud Murphy, not Tommy Tiernan.
That's SPUD MURPHY, NOT TOMMY TIERNAN
glenclosed you actually spent two years keeping track on this vid to mouth off a comedian?😂😂wanker
"Then it would be the other way corridor Sir." 🤣
wat a legend!!!!!!!!
Absoultly HILARIUOS
"Knock knock..." "Who's there? ..." "Not Mickey's dad anyway, HAHAHA!"
... He's such a fucking legend. xD
First time I saw this I was at my school library. I died laughing! XD and people looked at me like I lost my mind! They'd be laughin' to if they had seen this, I had never seen anything more funny in my life! Tommy you're EPIC!!!!!!!

Would have loved to be there!
'who's there?'
'not mickeys dad anyway!'
ahahahahahah :')
What about the principal? Maybe the video ended too soon?
Im 110% certain that Tommy is Irish, I think that charm you are referring to is the world renowned Irish charm. Frankie Boyle is Scottish.
omg thats so mean
only tommy could say that and get away with it!!
absolutly brilliant!!!
laughed my ass off:)
