🏆📽️ "Because, Frank" was nominated for Best Short Award (Audience Award) at the 2022 IFI Documentary Festival! That's huge! Sadly didn't win; but he's been censored before, they won't censor him again.
@@johng69er up every morning the crack of dawn, full flask of of coffee & off down to the old rail tunnel. practicing over and over all day til the dark of night. Descending into the lanes of absolute Limerick madness consuming his mind. A true Artìste.
That tunnels does look suspiciously lived-in.. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a small camping stove, tent and a few empty bean cans just out of shot.
It’s funny to think about the hundreds of millions of dollars Netflix put into their shows/movies and that this performance on its own is more entertaining and impressive than 95% of them
Love how Francis says 'how are ya?' and smoothes the pooch without losing his way. What a performance and his lovely personality shines through. P.S. I love women!
The attention to detail is insane, 5:25 when Gery says "zero" Francis says it a second time, this time quieter, in order to replicate Pat moving the microphone away from Gerry. Amazing.
habitual frank addicts will use terms such as this: (often times to secure their next high) "u frankin, bro?" "pass the frank" "let me cop some of that fire no.2" ...other terms are used to describe the high such as being "franked out of it" or "franking my nut off" a large dose of frank is known simply as the "full frank mccourt" which often times involves the full clip being played over loud speakers in multiple tabs at 0.25x speed. the clip is slowed down apparently to achieve a "longer lasting" high, but medical researchers are quick to point out that this actually has no observable effect on the way the human body absorbs soundwaves
Maybe I'm impatient 🤔 It's a long time wait ,I must check his channel 100 times in-between content I want to grab him and shake more content outa him ,he is like a leprechaun with gold comedy
McCourts soliloquoy at 3:47 is perhaps one of the finest renditions of this piece i have ever seen in my life. The raw emotion and pain in his voice. Bravo Viper!
What a performance. As good as you'd see on any stage, anywhere. Consider this guys full catalogue and contribution to youtube viewers, this man is a serious talent. Never stop Francis! 👏👏👏
The was the best suprise. Just back from a walk into town, see a legit francis higgins notification. My feet are sore but my day us made. Well done Francis, well done indeed.
Sometimes when I've been drinking and I get home late and no one else is around I will put on Word for word Frank McCourt and participate along with the discourse.
Jaw-dropping stuff, this is incredible! I would have given my right arm to be them tourists passing by. The echo when he shouted ‘necrophilia’ gave me goosebumps. Great to see you back Francis, please don’t ever leave us
Gone for months and returns with a performance to put the whole academy to shame. RUclips doesn't deserve this gold! I would pay $100 to see this live.
I love how nature smiles on this performance at 05:36 and the sun comes back as he delivers the line "the other side of the story, people who were happy, my relatives, ok?". This is truly a magic moment to catch on record. Bravo sir, encore.
Lads this is pure art. This is a lad who has created is own mantra and his own legacy. The ommunity he has created and continues to grow will surely take over the world within 5 years.
Where is this tunnel? Also, I’m glad Francis is still alive. We’re almost at disposable BBQ weather, time for Tommy to get a few cans and make a return.
An incredible performance. Thank you for bringing beauty, fun, depth, sadness and truth to all of us for so many years. An artiste extraordanaire. Very special indeed. Between the moves and the shakes you had us all in the palm of your hand. Bravo!!!!!
You remind me of this guy I used to watch.... There was a time when this clip had become an obsession he wanted to escape because of how it had started to impact every moment of his life. It's good to see he's fully rehabilitated.
Love it Chris! My friend sent me the original clip the other day and i said ah here i know all about it, yer man who played the Viper in Hardy Bucks is obsessed with that incident and then came across this today! Perfect rendition, could only be enhanced by the presence of a disgusting yellow suit. I love your smashy and nicey esque drawl for pat kenney 🤣🤣
Very happy to see Francis has kept mentally well and healthy throughout our lockdowns
I'm sorry but I must've missed the part in the video that insinuated he was at all mentally well
@@mickalliester3842 him saying howaya to those walkers illustrates a perfectly lucid and well adjusted man
@@mickalliester3842 That's the joke.
Frank is like some malachi martin alter ego🤨 I saw it live as a 11 yr old. Some going
Hes turned into a loose moraled good for nothing hoor
Those tourists and walkers didn't know how lucky they were to see such a high calibre performance of art
Howaya
🎶when I go on to skyscanner at niight
I look for the best price for a Hong konng flight
Where is the location ?
Kowloon probably
Like watching a soliloquy from Macbeth
The tunnel is acoustically tuned to resonate the word ‘necrophilia’
That bit was a bit creepy.
You mean Mick Ophelia
Didn't catch the beautiful resonance until my 5th watch wearing headphones 👌😂
He's been training for 4 years to recite all that in 1 take. Welcome back shnake
it was all worth it
crazy how the addition of the camera makes this art and not meth
😂😂
And those that were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those that could not hear the music.

"You HAMMERED your mother (howya)"
I like to imagine he's been doing this every single day since he last streamed
It gives me comfort to imagine this
😂😂😂😂😂😂

Imagine wandering around the tracks and just running into this lad with 0 context
This performance can't be surpassed. Pure poetry of movement and delivery.
This is incredible.
reptilian
He's reptilian

Ok I love viper but that is just moronic statement
@@eamonmac2751 agreed he should have said euros not dollars
@@eamonmac2751 You are a moronic statement
It's such a moving and exhilarating piece, I'm in aw
Resoundingly so.
Love how Francis says 'how are ya?' and smoothes the pooch without losing his way. What a performance and his lovely personality shines through.
P.S. I love women!
"I'M INFATUATED WITH WOMEN!"
@@dannyoneill5516 "Wimmin!"
NECROPHILIA!
But, are you obsessed with women?
Well, I've been married 3 times and with this one it's going to last forever, so...
Almost shnakespearean in his movements
The robotic movements of Pat Kenny are gold
Love you micky
Maka Teresa Carmody morrowind speed run
they were very reptilian in nature in my eye
Shh
I never want him to end this bit, it just keeps on giving.
genuinely beautiful composition btw
4:15 I love how the tourist sticks around for the performance. Doesn't even hide it.
Welcome back Viper!
Woah what are you doing here
@@jayell1367 he does be in the chat for the streams
🤦♂️
OSDub 4 lyf biatches!
Get the viper for an adbreak, please.

Sad to see Francis relapse deeply into Frank in a big way here, thought he’d got over that hump. Hope he’s getting the help he needs.

Frank's sudden turn to a 1920's Chicago mobster was inspired
It sounds like yer man Des Bishop...
A perfectly appropriate reference to Frank's time in New York as recorded in Tis. An all-encompassing performance.
@@lordofthejungle What do you know about his life on America?
@@jplb96 Zero. Zero. :)
You've got a son, Frank
This is the definition of high art
When he was needed most, he returned.
And he'll be back again next year to keep us sane
Maybe I'm impatient 🤔
It's a long time wait ,I must check his channel 100 times in-between content

@@paddyt4043 do you watch the streams?
@@tipperary1082 no should I?
The timing of "We must move on because we have a couple of guests coming up" as the two people come walking up the tunnel. Beautiful
This was the most artistic thing I've seen in ages
This is one of the great theatrical performances of our times. Great to have you back! PUMP OUT THE STOUT!!
Hello fellow Johns clan member
this is truly avant-garde, an epoch defining masterpiece
That's some nimble stepping around. Well done!
Chrisht I needed this today. Bravo Francis, this is art
This has brought me more joy than anybody could possibly imagine. He's almost reptilian in his movements
A shlimeball
A Shhnake
“I drove from Limmerick to make three points, now let me make ‘em’!!”
The ppl passing by “👀☕️”
I'm 1999 it took 6 hrs to drive to Dublin from Limerick
He makes sure to pet the dog mid-flow. Magnificent
I knew Gerry would break Francis mind eventually.
If I ever see him in a yellow suit I'll call someone to check on him
McCourts soliloquoy at 3:47 is perhaps one of the finest renditions of this piece i have ever seen in my life. The raw emotion and pain in his voice. Bravo Viper!
Genuinely , a very artistic performance , especially the McCourt parts
Fecking brilliant stuff
He is a bloody great performer.
Bless everyone in this comment section you're all Angels of the lanes
❤❤❤

Stunning. Absolutely stunning. Amazing one-man show you've crafted from such a weird moment in Irish television.
God love Francis, he's been rehearsing this under this bridge like a troll since the last stream
The little “women” at 4:00 just cracks me the fuck up everytime.
Feels like something you'd walk into halfway through its runtime in the Crawford Gallery. Great work
: 03:46. The echo when he shouts necrophilia… I’m absolutely dead 🤣
I LOVE WIMIN
@@shakezist IM INFATUATED WITH WOMEN!
Sometimes when I've been drinking and I get home late and no one else is around I will put on Word for word Frank McCourt and participate along with the discourse.
That's nothing to be ashamed of, we've all done it
The sheer joy of being able to watch this artistry on my HANDHELD mobile device is indescribable
Jaw-dropping stuff, this is incredible! I would have given my right arm to be them tourists passing by. The echo when he shouted ‘necrophilia’ gave me goosebumps.
Great to see you back Francis, please don’t ever leave us
I still watch this video weekly
The “how are ye” got me
Gone for months and returns with a performance to put the whole academy to shame. RUclips doesn't deserve this gold! I would pay $100 to see this live.
This is incredible work
You are a true artist my friend.
Francis, please don't leave us again 🙏
"You hammered your mother" is apart of my echolalia now.
How can they just keep walking past such greatness?
That archway has just echoed the words of limerick history 🎶
I love how nature smiles on this performance at 05:36 and the sun comes back as he delivers the line "the other side of the story, people who were happy, my relatives, ok?". This is truly a magic moment to catch on record. Bravo sir, encore.
The high definition cinematography and lovely environment just add to this artistic masterpiece
Is this… is this real?!!! The stone has been rolled back from the tomb, He is risen!!!
Take it easy, legend
The robotic Partridge performance of Pat Kenny is spot on
Can’t put into words how good it is to see you again.
I've rewatched the stream clip of him doing it about 3 times in the last week. This is beyond what I could ever ask for
Where is this stream clip? Twitch?
@@paolovf ruclips.net/video/asqTYoJ75U4/видео.html
When times get hard I come here... thank you Francis. ❤
Lads this is pure art. This is a lad who has created is own mantra and his own legacy. The ommunity he has created and continues to grow will surely take over the world within 5 years.
Tears of joy when I saw he uploaded a new video. I'm not even trying to be funny, this is pure art. I absolutely love this man.
there's something deeply and unreasonably alarming about this performance. it's just utterly captivating
Thank god 🙏 good to see you Francis
I drove here from Limerick to ask a question and im going to ask it! Where was this filmed? I ask out of sheer pilgrimage necessity.
Where is this tunnel? Also, I’m glad Francis is still alive. We’re almost at disposable BBQ weather, time for Tommy to get a few cans and make a return.
What a spirited back and forth from the panelists.
thank you Francis, very nice
The tunnel represents the inside of Viper's head, and the different voices represent the real-time genius of how he creates his wonderful videos.
This is the greatest thing I have ever watched in my life Francis. Thank you so much!
Gerry Hannan called me gay once on one his livestreams
The tourists witnessed the performance of a century, truly a master at the craft of acting.
He even had time to pat that passing by dog while giving this macbeth-like performance. Amazing!
This made me so happy
A modern day Odyssey, a classic of the Modern Age.
An incredible performance. Thank you for bringing beauty, fun, depth, sadness and truth to all of us for so many years. An artiste extraordanaire. Very special indeed. Between the moves and the shakes you had us all in the palm of your hand. Bravo!!!!!
This is a fantastic piece of art. Beautiful, just beautiful.
Great to see you back chief! You were missed!
Beautifully done Francis
You remind me of this guy I used to watch....
There was a time when this clip had become an obsession he wanted to escape because of how it had started to impact every moment of his life. It's good to see he's fully rehabilitated.
It’s wild that if you follow Vipers streams or Irish literature you’d know what this is about but if not you’re entirely left in the cold
God bless you Francis! God bless you blessed man!
Beautiful. Moving. Performance art at its absolute pinnacle. The movement. The passer by's. Everything. I love it
Underappreciated.
Another hit of the viper.... Beautiful
I think about this every month or two and come back for this piece of performance art😂😂😂
Masterfully memorised
Love it Chris! My friend sent me the original clip the other day and i said ah here i know all about it, yer man who played the Viper in Hardy Bucks is obsessed with that incident and then came across this today! Perfect rendition, could only be enhanced by the presence of a disgusting yellow suit. I love your smashy and nicey esque drawl for pat kenney 🤣🤣
Refreshing, artistic, and a pleasure to watch from beginning to end.
THE KING HAS RETURNED
The combination of a beautiful, cinematic shot, and a one-man performance of something incredibly niche. Fantastic stuff.
I'm back again. After 3 months. I thought I was over this piece. I am not. And probably never will be.
Haunting, challenging, inspiring, five star all around
Beautiful scene, beautiful proformance, beautiful man.
The singlehanded best piece of performance art I’ve ever seen
reflecting on this video today. this is pretty legendary.
This tunnel is now top of my list of tourist destinations to visit
This was Amazing thank you and also great you’re alive 💕
You hammered your mother is an iconic line
This is incredible Mr. Higgins.
A message of support for this channel with a thumbs up for the video. Thanks so much for the effort to provide such consistently good content.
