On September 15, 1970, the world became aware of the magnitude of silly walks when Monty Python’s Flying Circus first aired its Ministry of Silly Walks sketch. This was the perfect opportunity for the troupe, and most especially, John Cleese, to display their gifts for physical comedy. Inspired by the work of fellow comic Max Wall, Cleese demonstrates what a highly-developed silly walk can exhibit in sharp contrast to the amateurish work of Michael Palin’s character.
Redditor /u/longdu4 made this laser cut wooden clock for his brother-in-law, a fan of Monty Python, which must show a very silly walk indeed as the hours pass by.
