Brian Blessed might be the only human being on Earth that can say "I climbed a mountain in Mongolia with a wolf." and it not even be in the top ten of his best achievements.
i think even he punched a polar bear. he said in russell howard's show.
@@pralayshivam251 the bear got off easy.
He once had to deliver a baby while walking through the park and had to bite the umbilical cord and tie it
For you, climbing a mountain with a wolf in Mongolia was a life changing experience. One that will stay with you for the rest of your days. For Brian Blessed... it was a Tuesday.
@@hellalpha That really did happen London 1963 Richmond Park.
I love Brian Blessed's larger than life persona. What an extraordinary human being he is!
Wtf, I sometimes get the impression there are only obsessive dick-suckers online... One can appreciate someone without compulsively having to make such a twatty remark. Imagine that in real life. Creepy, deranged as fuck.
BFKC I think your looking to deep into this guy from one comment.
I'd happily spend every penny of my life's earnings to fund a show where Brian and Stephen travel round doing whatever they want ... i reckon it'd win awards
Brian, Stephen, and Lee Mack. That would have been great.
I'm pretty sure Brian Blessed is a fictional character...like I know he exists in this world...but he's still a fictional character some how.
floooooooooooooooood GORDON IS ALIVE!
He's so like Gilgamesh. There's evidence to support that Gilgamesh was a real person, but his traits and stories are so absurd that most think he didn't.
In the future I bet Brian Blessed will be an ancient legend.
@@herbivorethecarnivore8447 OK, now I cant stop imagining Brian Blessed as a Heroic Spirit having a drink with King Arthur, Alexander the Great and Gilgamesh and fitting right in, possibly while drinking all four under the table. Or just doing it as a regular Human.
flooooooooooooooooood--Not fictional. Larger than life. He's had a phenomenal career.
Brian Blessed charms wolves and punches polar bears. If anybody else told you that you wouldn't believe him. One look at the man and you say, "yeah. I can see that happening".
Brian blessed is just insane
In a good way, I say
His sentences always start amazingly
jamie malone
Brian Blessed: "One time I had sex with a fair maiden on a dragon, 180000 feet up in the air..."
Everyone else: Sounds legit. Quiet now everyone, I want to hear how this ends.
Brian Blessed is THE BEST human being. Can we pool some money and figure out how to clone him endlessly?
spelling error
**BRIAN BLESSED*
I have had the great pleasure of seeing him on stage. Such a wonderful story teller.
To clone him would only give us physical copies, they wouldn't contain the same memories or personality.
@@HOTD108_ Still better than no BRIAN BLESSED at all.
BRIAN BLESSED cannot be recreated with modern human means, he is beyond our powers
I'm envious of Brian Blessed's life. His numerous adventures always make me realize that I'm missing out on a lot of experiences in this short life !
Like, I wanna go to Mongolia and and climb mountains with a fucking wolf or share a boat ride with an orangutan !
That's the difference between having enough money to do those things and not.
@Lucas Akame Adventuring is not so hard to start and not nearly as expensive as you might think. sure going far abroad can be expensive with out the proper finance arrangements... but honestly walking out your front door into the world at large is a helluva allot more to do with courage than it is price. if you don't want to do the exotic you can always do local things, you'd be surprised at the experiences & discoveries you can make. everyone and i'm sure Brian Blessed himself had to start small somewhere. i took a coastal walk around the entire Isle of Man (about 75km) 5 years ago and the only expenses i had were the camping gear (£200-300) the ship ticket from Liverpool (£30-50) and the camp site rents (£20-30)
planning on going upto the Scottish Cairngorms soon and i honestly don't expect my budget to go over £150 just try to get someone to go along with... going alone is kinda depressing.
He's also probably completely mad.
[points at you with pipe while gesticulating wildly]
Was just going to say that Brian Blessed has the best beard I've ever seen in my life and it haunts me to this day.
[smokes pipe pensively]
You can actually just get out and do it. Most places are very cheap to travel to and all it takes is the willingness to give it a try.

A part of me is disturbed by the idea of Brian Blessed getting randy with a wolf, but another part of me is impressed.
Imagine Brian Blessed on Would I Lie To You, he has led a life most of us could only dream of.
ruclips.net/video/d8STRoZa-6A/видео.html
He was on it.
He rode a canoe with a baboon, it liked the face shaking thing he did in Star Wars
He even hosted the show
@@malahammerHe was on Would I Lie to You, but he hosted Have I Got News For You
I was really concerned that he was going to admit to being intimate with a wolf! 🤣🤣
Being Brian I'd believe him.
Brian Blessed would make a great Tom Bombadil if they ever made a movie about him.
HE'S STILL THERE!
He says "so i climbed 40,000 feet" like he was going out for milk
Jacob B 14,000. Remember, Everest is 29,029.
mah bad
Just over 4kms.
Now why would you climb feet? Wouldn't a mountain be more exciting?
I wonder if Tormund Giantsbane was inspired by Brian Blessed?
George RR Martin saw Boss Nass in Phantom Menace and said "That's Tormund! That's him!!"
That's possible. A Storm of Swords was released a year after The Phantom Menace. But you'd sort of have to accept he wrote the majority of A Storm of Swords in that intervening year which for George R.R Martin...seems unlikely.
What an idiotic remark. NO, he's just some generic Norse warrior. Not that hard to come by. And obviously the fucking book came first, go figure. In a genre which is rich and very interested in such character types without having to rely on some media figure. Aside from it not being similar, except in some shallow conceited twat's way... (Who are always superstitious about their fucking associations and subjective, subliminal impressions.)
BFKC
Wow! I'm not sure how I stepped on your nerve... You must be having a really bad day. Look, if it makes you feel any better, my comment was never meant to be taken seriously (go figure). I was just making an observation. I never knew that the "generic Norse warrior" trope was so specific... Is it?
You and your fedora must be a real hit at parties
This is so pure, well done
Oh my god I haven't laughed so hard in a while. I think that's the funniest bit of QI I've ever seen.
I love how one of the recommended videos after this on the end screen is another game show that says "Was Brian Blessed's canoe skippered by an orangutan" and I honestly have no idea if that's a real story or not. If it was for like Jimmy Carr then ya I'd be able to tell...
You know you've lived a good life when you could spew total bullshit about yourself and people would assume it's true because it's not even the weirdest story they've heard about you.
BRIAN BLESSED, thank you.
I feel like Brian Blessed became an actor because what else would you do with someone like that? I mean, could you imagine him working in a bank or a hospital or something? It'd be a disaster.
Brian Blessed just loves being Brian Blessed.
He made a fantastic Prince Vultan
Anyone but Brian Blessed ever plays Tom Bombadil it'll be a tragedy
What a national Treasure
Slept with a big wolf and climbed a mountain with a bloody big wolf And the wolf did too.
One of my friends from second grade adopted a wolf pup from the pound that someone had brought in thinking it was an ordinary dog, actually really fun and playful but they had to get rid of it because it kept eating the niegbors children
Holy fuck i meant chickens
Blue Palmer Okay goddamn that made me laugh! I was initially shocked! 😱... But then I read the correction and damn near fell off my chair! XD
Please don’t edit that! It’s perfect and the sort of thing I could hear Brian Blessed himself say as a “blooper” and self-correction! 🤣🤣
Awwwww, that is horrible...
A few eaten children is a small price to pay to have a wolf pup. Those yuppie bastards can make more rotten groin fruit!
@@bluepalmer6908 hahahahahahaha thanks for not editing it!
You should stop him from wearing Grandma's nightgown from now on.
"Brian, Brian, you know earlier how you said you don't suffer from altitude sickness?"
"No I don't"
(Chuckling) "I think you do"
A new word would be ' Blessosterone'.
When pulling a sled the dogs piddle and poop as they pull. No stopping, everything goes. Takes some of the glamour out of it...
Not if you're the lead dog. :-)
It's all frozen solid so it's not as bad as all that.
@@fatherofdragons4880
It's not always that cold that it freezes as it comes out of the dog...
@@b_uppy I was joking really lol. I have no experience either way 💩🐺
@@fatherofdragons4880
Lol. Yeah, not sure frozen poop bullets would be better than wet ones...
Brian Blessed is larger than life
There's British eccentricity, and then there's Brian Blessed.
I know your game - you're uploading this now to get in the recommended of his rhlstp, and I love it.
My local pub (The Lantern) has a mural on the wall of Brian boxing with a Tiger. When I asked the bar manager about it, he said with a straight face "Can you prove it didn't happen?"
I would love to one day direct a movie about the life of Brian Blessed
No one would believe it.
I don't think he can die. He's climbed Everest what-? Three times? And if you read his biographies- I mean my god, he can't die!
Was thinking, I've heard this voice many times before, then realized its Grampy Rabbit from Peppa Pig!
What a earthy and lusty personality, he's like Sir Jack Falstaff come to life.
I aspire to become as boisterous of a man as Brian Blessed!
And that's enough implied bestiality for today, thank you.
But surely we're all animals, really?
@@peternicholson233 oh no bro
This guy could make a dictionary sound exciting
True fact, he did the voice for a Navigation app... I was so pissed that my phone didn't support it.
TIL Brian Blessed was born in 1936! I thought the guy was in his 50's, not his 80's!
I feel like he is an incarnation of Orson Welles...
They were alive at the same time. Orson Welles isn't a far off figure. He was in transformers
Real life Tormund Giantsbane
Give that man a knighthood!
must have been a sale on for scarf's !!!
Mush
what the hell Brian
dogsledding is great but I can't say it's 'exhilarating' unless something goes wrong...
"Naimdugaar ber".
Brian Blessed and Chuck Norris meet in a bar... Chuck Norris tips his hat a politely makes his exit.... Because.... Brian Blessed.

I want to be like Brian Blessed... unfortunately I am more like Mr. Bean.
It's amazing how many times Alan Davies just repeats someone's joke straight away.
Matt Whitby glad someone else has noticed.
He elaborates it and acts it out, Mr. DICKby. Or, sorry, TWATby. Everyone does to one degree or another - in some of the best bits at least.
With your level of wit have you ever considered a job in the comedy industry yourself?
I agree with BFKC's take on what Alan does but not with his delivery. Alan doesn't just repeat the joke, as you suggest, but continue the joke. Much like anybody would do in a normal conversation with someone else when they say something funny. Joining in the fun, if you like.
Like Dara O'Briain on MTW, he's a joke-surfer.
Brian was famously in the original West End production of 'Cats', so it's nice to think he enjoys doing things doggie style, too.
You know it's cold when the whole panel is wearing scarves.....
40,000 ft???

love brian but someones got to call the bs
"It ADORED me, I gave it Mars Bars and things"
...Isn't chocolate deadly poisonous to dogs? Yeah, there's at least something not quite right about this story.
It's only deadly if they're allergic. (Wouldn't risk it myself but I know heaps of people who gave and still give their dogs chocolate and they're still here. One dog, an arsehole of a Jack Russell ate a whole bag of Danish salted liquorice, threw up all over his owner's mattress and lived on for many years.)
I believe it was filmed for the BBC - Yup, he did it, wolf included.
Brian Blessed, an annoying eccentric like John McCririck.
If anyone is interested in a *_wonderful_* book that revolves around dog-sledding, i highly recommend Gary Paulsen's _Winterdance: The Fine Madness of Running the Iditarod._
My ex's sister & a friend of hers always exchanged their best read of the year as Christmas gifts. She was given _Winterdance._ And she just didn't get it, so she gave it to her brother (my ex) because when we'd first met, he had a Malamute-husky cross, so she thought maybe _he'd_ get more out of it.
Now, LC is not really a reader.
But he read the book and in record time.
I had to threaten him to keep him from reading bits outloud to me: "I *_will_* read it when you're finished with it. But you're going to ruin it if you keep reading me the good bits."
He finished it within a week partly because he was so anxious for me to read it.
I cried the whole book.
I don't really have a family. I have a combination pack-clowder-herd-flock-bevy. I cried because every page was either _that_ funny or so poignant & hit so close to Home....
I had the book with me at work - I worked at the Teaching / "Public" Hospital & i was assigned (what was essentially) the Emergency Room for pregnant women. It was a fairly quiet night - which was unusual - and for some quirk, we had five women that needed extensive fætal monitoring. That part of the room was set up kinda like a ward.
My partner was also a reader & we sat at the station reading our books. You don't even realize you're hearing the beep of the fætal monitors til one begins deceling. So to the outsider, it'd've looked like we were ignoring these 5 women, but any glitch and we dropped everything to check on it. And every 20 minutes we'd get up & check the monitor strips, take vital signs. Around 10 -10:30, we turned the lights down some, so the patients could rest.
Only i kept giggling.
I'm _not_ a giggler.
My partner would look at me. I'd apologize. Then i'd tell enough of the story to catch her up to where the lines would make sense and i'd read a paragraph or two.
A page, maybe two later, it'd happen again.
So finally she just closes her book and i'm reading _Winterdance_ outloud to her.
A couple of hours into this, we had a patient come in needing to be evaluated. I start to put my book down, but Tessa said NO. "I've got this & i'll holler if i need you. You read ahead so you can stay composed enough to read it when i get back. Don't lose my place." She grabs her stethoscope & heads to an exam room with the patient.
I start back reading, only silently now.
And one of the patients says: "No! Don't make us wait til she gets back! I want to know what happens next!" The other four start in, asking me to keep going. I had no idea they were even _listening._ So we compromised. When Tessa finished admitting the patient who had come in, we moved my chair where the patients in the monitor beds could hear better, & i started reading again.
One of the patients finished her monitoring time and we discharged her. She asked if she _had_ to leave, or could she stay & listen a while longer.
I read that book for 8 of a 12 hour shift.
Each woman had me write down the author & name before i left.
One of my very favorite nights, really.
i just don't like him. he's the type of narcissist whose relentless shtick wears thin within the first 3 seconds for me.
