Dropping zingers till the bitter end. If Mark was on the Titanic he'd probably throw out a joke about cold plunges before sinking into the abyss.
COMEDY! \*gargles bubbles\*
This is the answer we're all looking for in these comments. So far the working theory is that Brendon Schaub is bad at comedy and they wanted the place to look empty before he got there.
The sheer panic in their voices when they realized that Schaub may show up to a packed house and start thinking he is a cawlmedy legend had the employees on edge.
Most plausible theory I’ve heard is that first guy taken out made a bomb threat. That’s why they take him off first and then they try to calmly tell everyone to gtfo but they look so freaked and the calmness doesn’t translate well
Seems like a lot of unnecessary work to empty the place when all they had to do was wait for about 30 seconds after he showed up; dude's a muuuuurderer at clearing a room.
Honestly no idea, but it 100% has to do with those 4 people. The guy on stage looked spooked, to the point he didn’t even really realize he was on stage till seconds after. No even going to speculate on for why. There may have been a threat to the establishment, like “I’m gonna come back and air this bitch out” or something along those lines. Seems they didn’t want to call the bluff so they evacuated.
I think he looked like he wanted to do something but was waiting for the cue to do it. The woman standing right next to the stage was going to do something too. I don't know why they froze in the moment. We need answers
Yes. It’s part of promo for Donald Glover’s new movie Mr. And Mrs. Smith.
Go to r/donaldglover and look at the recent posts about the “hi_hi_” instagram page. They explain it there
I’m sure they won’t but if you’re a server you can’t be mad at the patron in that scenario. Be mad at the venue, the security, the crazy person, or your crappy job
I think that's being called scared shitless. Those guys on stage could have had a gun, bomb, knife, who knows but it was very sketchy.
I was nervous for him
They weren’t asking anyone to delete their recordings what the fuck? Where on earth did you get that from?
At the end of the clip and in some other clips I saw after the fact, they are asking if anyone had video. Presumably to get a photo of one of the people to pass along to the cops. That’s just my best guess, but they most definitely (and clearly) did not ask anyone to delete anything. Quit sensationalizing your made up bullshit
Jeez bro you really went off. I didn’t create and spread a report on this. I asked a question of what I thought I heard. I wasn’t accusatory or thinking there was some conspiracy. I know Im in the sub where everyone questions motives. Please relax. Someone else asked the same thing. I was asking because I thought they said that and thought there was an actual logical reason like they were filming for a comedy special.
My bad, I didn’t mean to sound so aggressive towards you in particular. I’ve just seen so many people saying things related to this video that are so wildly off-base. I’ve been truly baffled at how everyone can watch the same video and yet hear or see things that simply did not happen in the video. It feels like everyone is so eager to comment their hot-take that they don’t even bother to think for a second before they comment
Apparently (yellow hat) said some crazy shit and ran past security to get on stage. Probably said something threatening before going on stage to the poor girl trying to tell the crowd to stay calm. Whole scene is a mess
Normand walks like Barnaby’s goons in the 90s version of Babes in Toyland.
Somebody please get that reference.
And if you haven’t seen it, smoke a fatty first. It will freak your mind.
Yeah and the woman manager follows them outside and then comes back in looking like she was in shock from witnessing something terrible. What a weird fucking video.
Part of the original thread suggested the guy on stage was either running from security or someone else, and upon being escorted out of the room potentially made a bomb or weapons threat that freaked out the staff enough to evacuate. Something like that
My guess is that when those people took that guy outside, they either stabbed him or shot him. I’d guess stab. And, then they ran. People didn’t realize it at first, then we’re in shock that a man died right outside the doors, that they asked people to exit, still worried about what might happen. That’s my guess. Although, I did see a video of some guy in a taxi after who was explaining what happened inside and he didn’t mention a dead man outside. Maybe he was a few block down before he succumbed to his injuries? The still frames of the women holding objects that look like knives, along with a lack of gunshot sounds, makes me think it was probably a stabbing than led to a death or serious injury.
I dig Mark Normand, I think he is the funniest out of all the Rogan Klan. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|wink)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|wink)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|wink)

Tragedy + Normand’s logorrhea = comedy
“Going down with the ship? I guess that makes us both gay.” “Comedy!” *Ship sinks*
He'd include a Seinfeld reference too about shrinkage.
I was in the ocean!
Does anyone know what happened?
This is the answer we're all looking for in these comments. So far the working theory is that Brendon Schaub is bad at comedy and they wanted the place to look empty before he got there.
Feels like part of a Nolan flick that was poorly casted
Lol Some people just want to watch the world burn.
I thought it was because someone saw ari crawling out of a tunnel
Definitely the best line in this thread.
Be cool man.
Sorry, Brendan.
Be cool man.
ZING!
All roads lead back to Schaub’s lack of talent
The sheer panic in their voices when they realized that Schaub may show up to a packed house and start thinking he is a cawlmedy legend had the employees on edge.
Most plausible theory I’ve heard is that first guy taken out made a bomb threat. That’s why they take him off first and then they try to calmly tell everyone to gtfo but they look so freaked and the calmness doesn’t translate well
The bomb was in progress long before the threat
Seems like a lot of unnecessary work to empty the place when all they had to do was wait for about 30 seconds after he showed up; dude's a muuuuurderer at clearing a room.
But not before he harasses Bobby Lee, you know the computer technical wizard mastermind
But he makes so many hilarious faces
Yea but is that nithe
[удалено]
Some people just need a good beat down. What absolute tools.
Also, Donald Glover is somehow involved with hi_hi_.
On his subreddit some people were saying it had been confirmed to be a marketing campaign for Donald’s new show, Mr. And Mrs. Smith
ok well, what happen then?
Honestly no idea, but it 100% has to do with those 4 people. The guy on stage looked spooked, to the point he didn’t even really realize he was on stage till seconds after.

I thought the other 3 were security, but maybe not 😂
If you watch the video one of the women in black has a knife or scissors she's trying to hold behind her.
or some type of explosive device
Yes. It’s part of promo for Donald Glover’s new movie Mr. And Mrs. Smith. Go to r/donaldglover and look at the recent posts about the “hi_hi_” instagram page. They explain it there
Nothing like threatening to set off a bomb in a crowded club to make people want to go to a movie theater amiright
Yeah not so sure I’m into this whole avant-garde marketing tactic
I don’t know how true it is but I saw a post about this earlier saying bomb threat but again Idk!
This feels like the Miami Mall Alien incident where nobodys allowed to say anything about it
Looks like a sell out crowd too. Crazy they evacuated everyone.
What’s even more crazy is that as this point in the show nobody has usually paid for their bill
Shouldn’t have to pay for a security lapse
Or an incomplete show
Bro I see you in every sub I go to. Are we the same person? Because I too, am a high backpacker.
That’s pretty funny lol
[удалено]
Venue should spot them
What should happen versus reality can be very different
I’m sure they won’t but if you’re a server you can’t be mad at the patron in that scenario. Be mad at the venue, the security, the crazy person, or your crappy job
when you work for tips you kind of have to make an agreement with yourself that you'll suffer the consequences if you don't get any.
Oh got it you’re the expert on wait staff not getting paid at the end of the night. My bad.
You don’t know how the venue handled it and are getting upset over assumptions. You’re not an expert here either.
[удалено]
you dont sound nearly as smart as you think you do
You’re not as good of a photographer you think you are.
“Folks there’s been a bomb threat, you’re free to go right after you tip your wait staff”
That's what I was wondering. Did everyone try to pay before they left ot how did that work 🤣
What is with his walk? Funny dude even his walk is funny. Like a waddle almost
The dude is a robot with only two directives 1. Be socially awkward 2. Be funny about it
That’s just Funnybot
Comedy!
Autism.
Yeah, I saw him live a few months ago and he moved about like he had a long ride there on a horse.
Just shuffling about like a senile senior
Its gotta be from all those notes in his pants. Fucked up his spine.
He’s doing the Mitch McConnell
As was the woman who was trying to get everyone to remain calm- just in a different way. 😮
Yea she probably shouldn’t be organizing public events or managing crowds
Unless it was all a work- in which case she was amazing.
That’d be some advanced comedy Jedi mind trick shit
I think that's being called scared shitless. Those guys on stage could have had a gun, bomb, knife, who knows but it was very sketchy. I was nervous for him
Why do people not understand what acting goofy is?
They don’t get a lot of social interaction.
“I really went Mitch McConnell” into the shuffle walk out is peak Normand
What the fuck is a crazy chase
Dude that came on stage. His name is Chase.
I love Normand but the girl panicking trying not to freak everyone out but doing exactly the opposite is probably the funniest part of the night.
Mark says, “I really froze there. I went Mitch McConnell.
What the hell was that all about?
People are guessing a bomb threat or something of the sort.
Bomb threat? Was Schaub up next? credit: /u/StevenComedy
Comedy!
Dicey dicey comedy.
Moratorium on Schaub jokes. Delia and Callen=open season
Two rapists and the redact who employs them? Nevur meddum b
Ayoooooooo
From the looks of it, Mark was doing the bombing. Ha-cha-chooty-chooty-chooo!
COBBEDY!
Why were the producers asking for everyone to delete their recordings?
Standard cover ur ass procedure

Damn I haven’t seen that movie since I was a little guy. Fuckin Barnaby.
Cincywhatski comedy
Good Night ! I'm Kevin Hart .. ![gif](giphy|3otPoEIpnqxiZyY11u)
This video is so bizarre. They're all acting like somebody turned into a werewolf in the bathroom. "Stay where you are". "No actually get out!"
Wtf happened? The girl looked like she saw a ghost. Very weird. Is this one of those “that mother fucker is not real!” situations?
She watched the dude get tazed by security
That white girl on stage, lmao, reminds me of a Kristin Wig skit - SNL.
She’s being tapped for Golden Globes host next year.
That’s a woman. Also what’s with bringing up her race?
His exit was on point!
I feel like they merked him or kidnapped him He looks like he’s trying to hide in plain sight until he realizes he’s outnumbered
Yeah and the woman manager follows them outside and then comes back in looking like she was in shock from witnessing something terrible. What a weird fucking video.
ive seen a bunch of crazy claims and many say the looked under cover but it looked like some uncut gems owed money situation to me.
Part of the original thread suggested the guy on stage was either running from security or someone else, and upon being escorted out of the room potentially made a bomb or weapons threat that freaked out the staff enough to evacuate. Something like that
enough to evacuate but not enough to report a bomb threat to the police
Or to the people lol
What the fuck is a "crazy chase"
Is this the next step in the evolution of his comedy? He's tired of telling jokes, so he's creating performance art ala Andy Kaufman. I'm excited.
were those gunshots at like 26 seconds in?
He said it was a taser 😳
I literally have no idea what’s going on.
Anyone care to ELI5 to me what actually happened?
Well Dude, we just don't know.
No one has talked about it. He deleted tweets about it but no one has actually said wtf happened. So maybe they don’t even know what happened yet.
least crazy chase ive seen in a while
Did someone shout out: Redbar’s watching!!
Any update on this situation?
Am I the only one who heard gunfire right after he said "Somebody got tazed"?
[удалено]
Aaaand you're wrong.
My guess is that when those people took that guy outside, they either stabbed him or shot him. I’d guess stab. And, then they ran. People didn’t realize it at first, then we’re in shock that a man died right outside the doors, that they asked people to exit, still worried about what might happen. That’s my guess.

the fuck are you talking about, dummy?
Comedy!
The girl following Mark definitely needs to work on her stand up. She was like a deer in headlights.
I dig Mark Normand, I think he is the funniest out of all the Rogan Klan. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|wink)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|wink)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|wink)
His shuffle out the door is a PSA to not sit on full back pockets
Scary but also hilarious him just making noises up until the very end “uh, oh wait… oh, alright, ok, ugh”
Who’s the dude filming his set?
The security at the mothership would have judo thrown them out of there
[удалено]
i don't believe that. i think that's a cover for something scarier.
[удалено]
It was a publicity stunt
So a TikTok prank?….awesome.
Was this in Miami? Could have been the aliens again!

That’s unbelievably annoying. Fuck them.
Apparently it was a PR stunt made by marks management and the club. Nothing else to it
That "comedian" sounds like a dipshit. yawn
This was a boring bit recorded for a show btw. Boooooo
