SirHawkTalk no. it's true and i'm young. it's really boring to be out nowadays, everyone is more interested in their phones than the real world around them.
And it's also nice to see lots of men walking around in suits and ties carrying briefcases. Don't see much of that anymore either. Everyone is dressed like a slob now.
This is classic David Letterman shtick. NBC was cutting edge letting him pull those pranks! Can you imagine pulling that stunt today? You wouldn't be able to because the windows have safety stops and can't open more than a couple inches.
It just blows my mind how you can open the windows in these buildings in NYC and no screens! Maybe it's because of earthquakes but there's no way building are like this here in LA.
I remember my brother bought 10 pairs of xxl boxer shorts by accident and as they were cheap rubbish we threw them off the 80th floor of our hotel. I cant imagine what people thought went it started raining boxers
It's repulsive how so many in the comments think the world we are living in now, as opposed to then, is a tragic shame.....and then you have those who don't know any better. 'Merica
Back when late night TV wasn't all about political jokes and was creative. Now it's Fallon singing with people, and Colbert and Kimmel whining about Trump.
exactly kevin. a lot of people seemingly don't understand that great comedy is timeless. i interact with the public on my channel. please watch it ruclips.net/video/xoYctGRgJ9U/видео.html
Dave was right when he said in a recent interview that he should've retired from his show ten years before he actually had. Towards the end, he was getting grumpier and grumpier and had lost that comedic energy of his early and mid-career days.
Letterman at the beginning of this video talks about making fun of an overweight guest on the previous day. Ironically, now that Letterman retired, he is fatter than Santa Claus. Karma ??
WOW!!! Eight minutes, plus, and not ONE MENTION of politics! Of COURSE it's funny. Politics isn't funny. Pretty simple. Also simple to understand why late night TV is no longer funny at all.
THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS! I am the girl in the hallway that Dave yelled at 3:10PM and I have been looking for this for years!
So, I guess the big question is why were you in the hallway?
Definitely curious why you were in that hallway. I figured you were waiting for someone.

Thats gotta be a pretty awesome & nostalgic feeling tonget to see this!
+IndianaRadios should take this down just to punish this lady for not answering WHY WAS SHE IN THE DAMN HALLWAY?!
“There’s 400 people down there and I’m yelling ‘excuse me, sir.’” 😂 😂
My father-in-law is the man 3:07. It was nice to see this since he just passed away a couple of weeks ago.
The guy who's asked for ID?
Seems like a very nice man.
Mel A said it was his grandfather in the comment section. Assume you two are family..
@@justingardner4658 yes, she’s my aunt.
He seems so young. I'm so sorry he passed
"I AM NOT WEARING ANY PANTS!"
That seems to be the theme with these bullhorn sketches...
Could be, that his company Worldwide Pants, are getting a promo...
Letterman was so outspoken and clever in his early years.
We all were...
"They're desperate and confused!" That about sums us up, Dave.
80's and 90's, when Letterman was fun to watch.
It's so refreshing to see people in the moment, enjoying themselves in the city, without staring at a goddamn cellphone screen.
hey man you better go chase those darn kids off your lawn
SirHawkTalk no. it's true and i'm young. it's really boring to be out nowadays, everyone is more interested in their phones than the real world around them.
starshaped Who cares just people do what they want
JMMT022801 Did they even have smart phones back then?
And it's also nice to see lots of men walking around in suits and ties carrying briefcases. Don't see much of that anymore either. Everyone is dressed like a slob now.
David did it better than anyone! Thank you for posting this!!!!!
This is classic David Letterman shtick. NBC was cutting edge letting him pull those pranks! Can you imagine pulling that stunt today? You wouldn't be able to because the windows have safety stops and can't open more than a couple inches.
There would probably be lawyers and insurance companies now. Repugnant
Legend has it, Letterman is still yelling out that window to this very day...
The good old days when comics were funny and Dave was the best!
I think it would be cool to be walking around the streets of NY, and suddenly Letterman is yelling out the window with a bullhorn.
Where is the second half? He got a couple on a date to bring up the dogs and he used them ad guests. That was the funniest part! POST IT!
I was rarely still up when this show was originally on. I am seeing this for the first time and OMG I am laughing my ass off.
What's so funny about it? I just saw it and didn't even smile.
@@GymChess "If ya have to ask..." Nothing. Nothing was funny about it.
Dave is the best. He can always get a laugh, no matter the mood.
nbc has no use for you. wash up and get out. classic
bradmikeshaw kind of ironic this is how jay leno told him he had the tonight show...
"I'm Ed Koch" 😂😂 I would have been on that order so fast I would have knocked him over with the delivery hot dogs everywhere 😁🥴
God Letterman was so good on NBC in the 80's
Dave: What do you want on it?
Paul: Just plain
I miss David Letterman!!! A comedy genius😂😂😂😂
😂"Wash up and GET OUT!"😂
He told em to “wash up and get out.”
If they did this in 2019 a SWAT team would have shown up.
Just doordash that shit in 2019 lol
I'm laughing so fucking hard, my stomach hurts. 😂
It just blows my mind how you can open the windows in these buildings in NYC and no screens! Maybe it's because of earthquakes but there's no way building are like this here in LA.

Your show is missed . Watched through High school days 1996
He did the same with the Today Show.. pissing Bryant Gumbel as a result
Thanks so much for this! I so needed it.
hi helen. please watch my channel. i interact with the public
ruclips.net/video/xoYctGRgJ9U/видео.html
Letterman was so quick!!!
I had to keep replaying this to hear it cause I was laughing so much.
I used to LOVE to record Dave's tomfoolery and show it to my mom, who HATED it! Love You Mom RIP It'll soon be two years you've been gone!
Classic Dave shenanigans and bally-hoo.
"What a stupe..!" I haven't heard that since my mom once said to me, " ya big stupe..!"
Letterman was at his best doing these type of stunts.
Dave is a legend.
"A Fat Tub of Goo".
My God, Ive been using that term for years since I first heard Dave say it
Fuckin'-A, man.
Yeah you're doing the drywall up there at the new McDonalds.
I tell you what you do man. Two chicks at the same time man.
This looks like about the time David interrupted the today show. 1985.
Lol, 30 years ago.
Nobody on that street or studio has a smartphone in their pocket.
yeah I wonder why nobody had a smartphone in 1985
Legend has it, he is still asking for 🌭 's
Think how many WWII vets were walking around
I died drowned in the tears of my laughter ;))))))
Hahaha I remember watching this in high school .
This was great
Looks like the Trade Centers at the end
how come he can do this but everytime I do it i get arrested
Because you really didn't have any pants on and you were standing outside my window
dave in his prime at nbc! this is a jem!
but never a gem
CLassic, classic Dave...
You can clearly see where Conan got his office skit inspiration from
We used to laugh.Now we're afraid to laugh
It's repulsive how so many in the comments think the world we are living in now, as opposed to then, is a tragic shame.....and then you have those who don't know any better. 'Merica
David invents Ticktok
I think their were ONE or TWO people who were maybe suspicious that it WAS, in fact ... Letterman.
OH MY GOSH THIS IS HILARIOUS
AND I'M NOT WEARING PANTS!!!
That guy on the phone.... is that Robert Morton? the producer
New York pre 911 was a much calmer easier going city
Idk if its just me but that "how do you do" he says to the indian @ 3:07 sounds like the sample in MF DOOMs Bistro on madvilliany
Look at those cars.
But did he ever get the hot dogs?
Oh gosh, Dave. You maniac! 😂. Did he get them later in the show? Seems like someone showed some interest at the end!
Did anyone ever bring him the hot dogs?
Did he ever get the hotdogs?
It's good he didn't fall out of the window.
"He's a balloon...."
If this had been in Canada he would have gotten the 5 hot dogs and a case of beer.
At 4:06, they just do not make buildings with windows that open any more...
wow you can open windows that high off the ground back in the day huh?
Those people have no sense of adventure.
3:44
Most jolly, white guys I've seen.
Classic!
He apologizes for calling him FTOG, but calls him "a balloon" and "huge." :D
Lol. Back when office windows could open.
Back when late night TV wasn't all about political jokes and was creative. Now it's Fallon singing with people, and Colbert and Kimmel whining about Trump.
Letterman in his prime!
What a riot
now thats good humor =P
exactly kevin. a lot of people seemingly don't understand that great comedy is timeless. i interact with the public on my channel. please watch it
ruclips.net/video/xoYctGRgJ9U/видео.html
Well damn...did he ever get anyone to buy the hotdogs?
REBUILD HISTORIC "LESTUDIO" CANADA YEH!!!!!EH!
NBC Letterman was better than CBS Letterman.
Dave was right when he said in a recent interview that he should've retired from his show ten years before he actually had. Towards the end, he was getting grumpier and grumpier and had lost that comedic energy of his early and mid-career days.
Dave laid into ballplayer Terry Forster about his weight for about a year.
Did he get his 🌭🌭🌭🌭🌭?
classic 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Was that the world trade center across the street?
Savoir Faire the world trade center was 3 miles south of here
wow letterman really loved to comment on people's weight huh. guess that's the 80s for ya
"Surreal how the twin towers are in the background outside the window..."
4:02 could only do this before 9/11
Funny guy
:(
Out, hot dogs, out!! I don't care, jump!
Letterman at the beginning of this video talks about making fun of an overweight guest on the previous day. Ironically, now that Letterman retired, he is fatter than Santa Claus. Karma ??
No he isn’t, you liar.
And if he was, that’s not what irony is.
Get your life together you lying idiot.
I miss the Letterman show, late night tv sucks now.
I strive to be this annoying.
0:44 - Conan's entire lifeless, self-absorbed, one trick pony shtick he stole from Letterman doing this. Ever seen Conan do this?
WOW!!! Eight minutes, plus, and not ONE MENTION of politics!
Of COURSE it's funny.
Politics isn't funny. Pretty simple.
Also simple to understand why late night TV is no longer funny at all.
Basing his entire career stealing Howard stern bits
I invented David Letterman Robin,ho,ho...
Howard Stern sucks, boob jokes are for 8 yr olds.
Holy shat that was funny but unfortunately you can’t do this anymore.
