I actually read about it a few years ago. What happened was that the guys crown, the top of his skull, became separated from the rest of his skull but new bone formed or something like that. He wasn't even aware of it to begin with. I'm not entirely sure about exactly what happened because it was many years ago but I think I know what Karl is referring to even if he has blown it out of proportion lol.
I think I read the story. Guy was an electrician from Kolkata, India who burned his head in an electrical accident. It burned the skull dead, but not the membrane that grows new bone, or something like that. I think this happened back in 2006.
There usually is a real story behind his stories. He usually gets them wrong in such a funny way. I remember the manhole cover on top of a nuclear bomb. They detonated one underground and it blew through a ventilation pipe and the manhole cover was seen being blown into the atmosphere. At no point did someone place one on top of the bomb hahahaha
Apparently there was a guy who lost some part of the crown of his skull (probably in an accident). But as usual, Karl has read that story and worded it completely out of proportion. And ended up saying "his skull fell off"
I'd like to think that all human thought is part of a collective unconsciousness, that our ideas are all connected in some mysterious way. If that is the case, this would be the part of humanity's collective super-brain arguing with itself while rummaging groggily through the fridge at 3am.
It was partially true. Many years ago a man had damaged his scalp and when he combed his hair he dislodged a piece of the bone. Karl has once again miss repeated the facts
@@lamegag So literally only one comment that doesn't even prove that they didn't understand. All that comment does is laugh at his speech pattern, there's no misunderstanding - just people like you trying to act smart about it and condescendingly explain what didn't need explaining.
"Just get the details!" Yet he has none of the details whatsoever! It's amazing that there are people who say that this man is a genius! He really isn't!
he's a genius in terms of the way he thinks about things. he is different and interesting in his weird thought process. original and different, that's the key, he's not the same as everyone else. don't be such a whingeeeeeeebag christ
2 things about karl, sometimes, his thought process is actually quite clever...also, he knows he's being funny,,, he may be playing himself, but he knows why people find it funny and he plays to that.
My 7 yr old just listened to this and lost her shit! Argued over the audio and agreed with Ricky about karl being an idiot. Mind you, at 5, she decided Santa was a just tricky burglar (or, more likely, a lying parent), the tooth fairy was obviously fake because nothing, not even a fairy, would need so many kids' teeth for any sensible reason (parents lying again), and if she couldn't believe in unicorns she wouldn't believe in anything. She kind of makes me think of him when she's feeling whiny.
@@syok1107 "while combing his hair" is classic Karl extrapolation, what really happened is that an electrician got burned badly from a high voltage wire, the whole top of his skull kinda scabbed away (due to "circulation problems") and a big chunk of bone literally fell out after months in a hospital. it healed back up, incredibly enough. youtube won't let me post the link, google "KOLKATA India Piece of man's skull falls off"

Fell off.

@@OscarRodriguez-vs3io His skull... something to do with circulation
It come off.
Karl is masterful at ducking questions lol
His skull phased through his muscle and skin and fell on the carpet.
how hard is it to understand?
Lollllll 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Commenting on this 4years later to get you to watch this and most likely go down the city rabbit hole again.. enjoy😂
Skull osmosis
Who searched "his skull fell off" to be here 🤣
Yeh mate and I would be back here 3 or 4 times a week
Same man, it's like meditation to me 😅
It come off
What did?
His skull
His skull come off.
He had a helmet on, but his head come off.
Best Karl moment ever.

It is classic Karl.. he ain't gonna start looking at stuff in detail
Clive Warren for me
Better than Always wanted to kick a duck up the arse?
It come off!! Lady's and gentleman this is comedic poetry. 'Its impossible for a skull to fall out'. Just cant get enough of these lads.
That bloke must have had a pretty darn powerful comb.
So powerful was it that it caused his skull to fall off.

Just to clarify, it didn't burn the entire skull, just the top left part of it.

This is once again one of those true stories that Karl gets messed up, it was part of a man's skull that "fell off"
Karl was right about the chimp in space
ua-cam.com/video/2G-ysg3WbFg/v-deo.html
For a moment there I thought that maybe he meant "scalp". This makes more sense now. I was so perplexed.
@@thingthang2904 exactly what i was thinking
My skull fell out and I tried to catch it with my foot.
"It come off."
Had me in tears
He mislaid all his dreams...
This cracked me up when I was listening to the podcasts during a study period at Sixth Form. Had to keep myself from disrupting the study period.
Karl Pilkington will be the saviour of mankind eventually he's too brilliant. "It's a part'a the head"
Watching this at 0.5 speed makes everything better
Ricky's laugh is so creepy haha
When you do this and look at Steve’s face it’s awesome
I still have tears in my eyes after hearing this a hundred times 'he was combing his hair and it come off'
SKULL LIKE A FOOKIN' ORANGE!
"He mislaid all his dreams".Smerch, you were exquisite there
I would be so mad at Karl if he was my mate. He’s gotta be doing it on purpose
Was Karl talking about a scalp? Or an actual skull? This has to be the most bizarre thing Karl has ever said (which is saying something).
Apparently there was a guy who lost some part of the crown of his skull (probably in an accident).
But as usual, Karl has read that story and worded it completely out of proportion. And ended up saying "his skull fell off"
@@CactusCowboyDan Brilliant. Hahah
He can’t take that on he’s busy, he’s not going to start looking at stuff in depth.
Literally in tears laughing 😂 😂😂
Circulation problem
WHAT?!
See... interestin' innit?
To be fair I've actually caught things with my foot before so I don't blame him for trying.
"im not gonna start looking into stuff in depth, im busy an that"
He probobly misread it. It was surely about someones hair falling off from the skin.
Scalp, Karl, it's called a scalp...
No, his skull fell out
Yes!!!

This is peak Karl
It come off
HIS SKULL FELL OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is more of the "that's what they do now" thing
The crazy thing was Karl was telling the truth, he was just realy crap at explaining it, (only the top part of the skull fell off).
"fell off" implies it dropped off his head on to the floor lol. I don't know the full story but I imagine it just separated from the rest of the skull
This is one of Karl's most infuriating moments ever, he just refuses to answer lol
When asked if he knew what minge smelt like Einstein said he "didn't carry such information in my mind since it's readily available in cunt books."
its interesting innit?
he's adorable. fml
This is up there with his lips fell off
They can sort of go "ooh..."
I can't take that on..I'm not gon start looking into stuff in depth 🤣😂
Did he mean SCALP?
His SKULL fell out
I've made a fair few comments defending the things that Karl has said but this is the stupidest thing he's ever come out with.
It was partially true.

Karl has once again miss repeated the facts

Oh, the TOEster - now I get it!
I also catch me toaster with me foot
Just to let some people know, when Karl says "His skulls", he's shortening "his skull has" because of his accent.
Zero people were confused about this
@@waterwind2266 I'm sure plenty of people have been confused "about this". Fucking dumbass.

This is brilliant but tells us nothing 😂
This one always annoyed me, they have to be pretending not to understand that Karls so obviously means *scalp.*
You're saying that but tbh I didn't know that until a few weeks ago when someone mentioned it
no, he actually means skull, it's just that it was a part of the skull not the whole thing
@@9600bauds are you serious? Is there a source for it where it mentions part of his skull came off while combing his hair?
