Ive always really enjoyed his videos, especially when he asks interrupts Olivia Munn on live tv to ask about the Dreamcast 2. lmfao!

Its exciting to catch him on commercials such as the new M&M's one running right now!

I was showing some videos of Talking Classics to one of my friends last night and he made the comparison with Ali G. The best part just like Cohen's stuff is that he never fell out of character no matter how the situations went, just like you with Keith stuff and that's just hilariously awesome.
Starting when I was a freshman in high school in like 1995, my brothers and I had a sketch show we aired on local cable access. Some of the sketches I would mess with people in public in character. I used to hide on grocery store shelves as if I was an employee trying to take a nap and roll off when people would come up and take things off the shelves. And that was the first time I used my peg leg as this war veteran character. So Sacha Baron Cohen is an influence because he is doing things that I like to do and it gets me pumped to go shoot stuff.

About that peg leg. Is that for real? If not, it's an beyond-excellent effect. Also, what has been your worst injury sustained from making a video (besides the loss of your leg :? )?

Apparently you have managed to avoid non-Ray Amsley videos.

And have failed to notice that bulge in Nathan's butt during those videos. And the duct tape holding the leg on. :lol:

I imagine it'd be very difficult to pull of these crazy moves with a missing leg, lol.

I have no clue who Ray Amsley is. There was something in the ICO video where he played a character with a peg leg and that's where I saw it.

Its another of Nathans characters, and he always wears the peg leg for him. His actual leg is hidden pretty well I think.

lol I would've loved to see what else Olivia said after that, unless she just got right back on track with whatever G4 was doing. She was completely oblivious "He had a mic... um not one of ours", lmao.

I definitely haven't seen Ray Amsley or most of this stuff on Nathan's channel, haha... marathon time!
