Camera men have a head set to the control room where the director is. The director would of told him to shake the camera. The camera man didn't just improvise it.
I saw this episode live and I believe the alarm came back on later as the night went on, but it was hilarious and a testament to Conan's improv skills as many have already said in the comments.
I had mishaps happen while in a Show in the time I did standup Comedy with very little training It was in 1998 My Friend/Crush was in the Audience I was supposed to come riding a bike with a Surfboard in the back I jumped into the stage lights As I was getting ready to do my opening joke The SurfBoard falls to the Floor I look at it then the Audience Back at the SurfBoard then Back at the Audience then said Um I meant to do that (that wasnt even a joke it really was unplanned) Somebody after the show told me Good save ur prop falls unplanned and u made a joke about it I think Conan Influenced me is how I managed to turn my Mishap into a joke Thanks Conan now If u excuse me I need to find away to get Jimmy Fallon fired so I take the TonightShow and 7 months Later Leno steals it away and I get a Show at TBS just like Conan

camera man deserves a raise for joining in on the shakey camera bit with Conan
💯
@@LivvieLynn Better that way!
seriously he nailed it so quickly
haha so true

"Do they know we're taping... a f***ing show?" I always love the pause he takes there. 😂
I feel like it him going "They'll probably bleep me; but ill cut the editors some slack" LOL
One of my all-time favorite Conan clips. Really shows how amazing Conan's improv skills are.
the best moments comes from unscripted, unrehearsed segments like these
Only Conan to take something as unpredictable as a fire alarm and make it funny 😂
COUGH *Craig Ferguson & the leaking roof*
Conan actually did a great low-key job of keeping everybody calm in a situation that could have been genuinely horrible.
I like the "Yea" from a random woman at 2:36 after Conan says he deserves to add a year of being on air.
Turning what would normally be a blooper into actual show content--one of the many reasons he's still my favorite!
That brief moment of panic on Conan's face is so genuine, you hear a sound like that out of nowhere and all your hairs stand on end
I believe Conan brings on the fire safety inspector on the show afterwards
Yup he did
Just pure brilliance from Conan. This is one of many things that sets him apart from all other hosts.
0:58 Love how the fire alarm blended in with the audience cheering
I love that this kind of stuff happened on Craig Ferguson's show on a weekly basis
The roof leak saga was one of the funniest moments in all of late night television
@@TheMasterofGalvin especially when he took the mop and channelled Cinderella 🤣
I remember watching this when it aired.
He brought the fire Marshall on after!

At 3:01 Conan sounds like The Interupter lmao
This is probably far funnier than whatever Conan had planned. Masterful improv.

Conan and his team just take any situation and craft the best television history possible
He handled that well
This is why he left for TBS 😂
Sweet! This is one of my favorite moments and it's great to see it in full HD!
Conan can turn any situation into entertainment
I particularly liked the PA announcements... His voice was so melodic.
That guy on the intercom sounds like the head of security from another one of Conan's remotes, where he becomes a security guard.
Fire alarm goes off. “We’re taping a show!” Most New York City thing ever.
Literally the best show/episode EVER!! 😂
"Klingons approaching"!
I think the guy that came over the PA system is the same guy from the remote when Conan did security at 30 Rock for a night. Sounds just like him!
greetings from bavaria, just ... just laughing my ass off lool you rock!
Conan interviewed the fire safety director the next day: ua-cam.com/video/ZnLA7gSrULc/v-deo.html
*if this was Jimmy Fallon or even Ellen, then they would run out of the studio into their armoured car within 10seconds*
And lock the doors do anyone else cannot escape lol
Conan should consider himself lucky; Craig Ferguson would go on to spend 9 whole years in this level of chaos
They caught Hunter S. Thompson on the fifth floor trying to set off the bombs he made in his basement
Haha watching him sit in the guest chair was silly
I miss Conan
Conan! The real OG
Respect!!!
His sketches, bits (and even non bits), and interviews are everlasting. No other host makes it better
And that's why the NBC studios are, to this day, haunted by the charred ghosts of Conan, his crew and the audience.
That sounds like CodeMiko. 😂
the greatest of all time
Conan getting close to the camera at the end reminds me of Ferguson a bit
Oh god, the old times. :')
did it sound like punky brewster was coming up next
awesome 🏆
