To attempt to completely wipe out jellyfish would be an undertaking that would dwarf the apollo missions in magnitude, and even with every resource available it would be next to impossible to achieve the objective. He wants this to be done because they don't do anything. I love Karl Pilkington.
@@tomoliver4632 I was with him on jellyfish - they're a fucking nightmare(by which I mean they occasionally bother me very slightly when I'm on the beach). But octopuses...I've never seen an octopus in the wild in my entire life. I think he just got octopuses and jellyfish mixed up in his mind a bit.
Err Ya cud take all the humans off the earth and it would carry on.. but take like some animals off it and mammals and that ya got problems on ya hands
I love how confused the snail guy is when Karl tells him that everyone is waiting for him to make a decision to eliminate all snails and he is holding them up
There's no way it was Ricky, he couldn't have not laughed at the beer line, or when Karl said only the "tired" snails can sleep for up to 13 years. I don't really think it sounds like him either way.
A cockroach has 18 knee-like joints in total. Each of its six legs has three primary joints that function similarly to knees, making it highly adaptable and agile in movement.
I'm gonna take issue with this assertion that octopus are rare and "you only get two or three caught a year" based solely on the menu of most tapas restaurants........
Chris: "We put jam jars with crabs in em and the octopus will open the jars to get the crabs" Karl: "You're joking! even I struggle with them." Chris: "We both do.. well, we don't screw the jars very tight" Karl: "So they not that clever then.." 😫hahaha🤣
Fair enough they are not literal knees. I was merely referring to the tarsus. the coxa and finally trochanter. Which all act in similar, but by no means the same, way as a human knee.
They don't. The reason is because when we refer to "knees", we are referring to a specific type of joint; that joint is called the femoral-tibial joint in which the cockroach only has one but this joint on the cockroach has very little meaning in relation to vertebrate knees. Now, if you ask how many joints cockroaches have, then there are five, plus the joints between the segments of the tarsi (tarsomeres) in which there is also 5. So 10 would be the answer.
I wonder if Karl would of found one in the end? That the scientists couldn't rationalize and put on Noahs arc???? MTV should roll this idea out!! would be better than Geordie shore or ex on the beach !!!!! !!!!Viva la pilkalution !!!!
Having watched/listened to hundreds of hours of him I think Ricky doesn't possess the voice acting skills to do such a subtly off way of inflecting, and if was trying to disguise himself he'd probably have done a different accent to the one he already has. He's a good actor but not a particularly good impersonator and it would have been obvious if it was him
If he did this today it'd be "do we need religion or trans people? NOPE, and if you argue with me I'll inexplicably call you both too archaic and too PC"
I agree with him about it being cruel to put the crabs in the jar for the Octopus to get. It's also cruel to keep them in captivity any creature, that isn't happy/consenting to stay there. And I don't get what that woman means by "even a cockroach". They're living beings like any other and equal as such.

Haha that silence was deafening!
"I called you today because a lot of other places are shut." Nearly died laughing. xD
"Aren't you glad you picked up the phone today?" *Long pause*
"Do we need humans?!!" "Well I don't know, we might get on to that, i'm just trying to sort the Animals out first, i've got a lot on!". Brilliant.
karl: when Suzannez working.. I'm not a very good cook, I just get an Indian in
steve: what, to do the cooking for you?
hahahaha
Honestly this was my favourite feature from the xfm shows. Shame they only did it a few times. Absolute gold.
paranoidandroid447 agreed. Karl at his best. They definetly missed a trick by not doing a feature called 'Whats Art about that?' aswell
But do we need em?
What have they done though?
I like how he just gives up
That's these Pilkington way
"sick of seeing these limpets lying about"
"Mad world though innit"
I love it when the second guy stays silent after Karl says "Glad you answered the phone today?" Hilarious.

His argument is strong though you get sick of seeing them crawling about opening jam jars n that
Wipe em out.

Those experts were thoroughly unimpressed with Pilkington.
+FranBMan Can't really blame them.
FranBMan dont hate on karl
FranBMan Karl's intellect was too high for them.
I love that they entertained his nonsense
Err Ya cud take all the humans off the earth and it would carry on.. but take like some animals off it and mammals and that ya got problems on ya hands
He’s a good looking bloke, so you’re happy an’ that
🤣
“Might have a bit of a knock on effect, things like turtles eat jellyfish”
“Yeah but do we need turtles”
Looool
I love how confused the snail guy is when Karl tells him that everyone is waiting for him to make a decision to eliminate all snails and he is holding them up
I've been convinced for years and years that the snail bloke is Ricky putting on a voice. Same speech patterns and the odd word is very Reading.
I believe it was indeed Ricky, but Karl's too daft to realize it.
There's no way it was Ricky, he couldn't have not laughed at the beer line, or when Karl said only the "tired" snails can sleep for up to 13 years. I don't really think it sounds like him either way.
Mitch Robinson It might seem that way to non-Brits. I don't think he sounds like him either
It's definitely not him.
There's no way Ricky wouldn't have laughed. It's not him.
These are great, Karl interacting with real people
I love how Karl's annoyed and irritated by animals but super open to other people's perspective
Yeah, I wouldnt have believed it at first but you're right the snail man is Ricky dead on
"so the octopus gets out of its cage at night"
Karl, never change
2:54 I don't know what's funnier, the idea that Karl thought scorpions look after monkeys, or that he confused a monkey with a lizard 😂
What did these poor people think they were doing lol
Gotta love that jingle!
A cockroach has 18 knee-like joints in total. Each of its six legs has three primary joints that function similarly to knees, making it highly adaptable and agile in movement.
The cockroach one is amazing . . . "has someone maybe seen one thats a bit double jointed!" haha
“Well I like whales but I dont know what they do. Theyre taking up a lot of room.” 😂
That third call was definitely Ricky
Nope
I was on the exact same page as Steve at first when he said the one lad "owned a fish shop" haha
cats? ... keeps the mice down!? ... yeah but we got rentokill hahaha
Saying she could repopulate with Noah XD
I guess he means 18 joints, 6 legs, each bend in 3 ways.
Thanks a lot for these compilations
You discovered this 8 years ago. I’m late to the party!
I'm gonna take issue with this assertion that octopus are rare and "you only get two or three caught a year" based solely on the menu of most tapas restaurants........
I'd take issue with the idea that octopuses are kept in 'cages'.
Karl is awfully like Thanos🤔🤔 ‘do we need em’ *clicks fingers*
I wish they made this… honestly think it would have been bigger than the office
This is one of the most brilliant segments in all of podcast history. Needs to be brought back
It was on a radio show not a podcast FYI
Chris: "We put jam jars with crabs in em and the octopus will open the jars to get the crabs"
Karl: "You're joking! even I struggle with them."
Chris: "We both do.. well, we don't screw the jars very tight"
Karl: "So they not that clever then.."
😫hahaha🤣
These are going on my iPod. Many many thanks :)
8 years ago I had an iPod too!
@@jakehixon4073 I actually still have that one. Still works! But I have switched to a phone now ;)
@@Kleavers fair enough, wasn’t expecting a response to an 8 year old comment 😂
"yeah but do we need em"
Oceanographer "that's interesting they sleep for thirteen years."
Carl: Not All of Them. Only the Tired Ones." 😂🤣 Omg 😹
I love that Karl is just dying for the person he’s speaking to to say “Yeah u know what, let’s get rid of em”
Does anybody else think that the snail guy sounds slightly like Gervais ?
keep sheb alive
Fair enough they are not literal knees. I was merely referring to the tarsus. the coxa and finally trochanter. Which all act in similar, but by no means the same, way as a human knee.
And I'm still coming back to this shit.

None of the sea animals went on Noah's arch. Why would you take them out of the water and put them in an aquarium?
Zeus works in mysterious ways.
Nanananan Poseidon innit?
That's a bloody good point lol
Yay I watched the others about three times now so thanks for the new one ! :)
Limpets, they could go
They drink beer and that.
anyone notice the bloke karl interviews for octopus sounds a dead ringer for Kev?
the first scientist sounds like karl!!
I thought the snails guy sounded like Ricky... Hmmmm....
the jellyfish woman?
This is still amazing 🤩 😂
well we'll just keep em then.
'e's not a bad-lookin fella, so you're 'appy.
The cockroaches holding their breath for 40 minutes fact is actually true.
Who are the 20 people that disliked this video? I want names...
I like whales but I don't know what they do.
Now who could argue with that??
Cockroaches definitely do have 18 knees.
The snail guy is definetly Ricky.
cant believe he didnt do rats
Cockroaches have 3 knees on each leg
Yess.
I wonder if Karl would of found one in the end? That the scientists couldn't rationalize and put on Noahs arc???? MTV should roll this idea out!! would be better than Geordie shore or ex on the beach !!!!!
!!!!Viva la pilkalution !!!!
Nice one dude.
do we need spiders!?
is the snail one just ricky gervais putting on a voice??
I've always thought this ...I hope not
Ive never considered this and ive heard it a million times. What would be the point?
No lol
Can we get rid of Lionfish next?
Love it
Why is he talking in a deeper voice! Lol
Peak Karl. Too bad he got too clever and developed a shtick.
Do we need em.
Yes Man 😂😂😂😂😂
It’s obvious that the snail scientist is Ricky Gervais. Still amazing listening

Rubbish.
Nah

Hey Karl,
We should get rid of my Soon to be ex Husband.
Rrrr

Ricky Gervais used to be so funny. What happened?
If he did this today guarantee he’d just cry and throw a shit fit cus animals
If he did this today it'd be "do we need religion or trans people? NOPE, and if you argue with me I'll inexplicably call you both too archaic and too PC"
