The thing that makes me laugh the most is the crowd chanting 'midget fight! midget fight!'

Is it just me or does the smallest dude remind anyone else of the Black Knight in Monty Python and the Holy Grail?

I have been shown that before, and i wasn't immpressed!! I don't know why they let them carry on fighting! Its sick! If it was anyone else they would have stopped them and dragged them off! However they let them carry on fighting for the amusement of the crowd! I never want to see anything like that again and it should be stopped!!! It wasn't right at all. They even took their clothes off! I mean what was the point in that, and once again they let them carry on! That was blatent midget abuse and seemed like something I would have seen 100 years ago! It just shows that some people havn't moved with the times! They might as well of thrown some dancing bears in there too, and some savaged starved dogs!

anyway, hope is all well Dorri.

See I'm pretty sure it was staged anyway, like most Jerry Springer, and thats why it wasn't stopped (stunt midgets you see). The funniest thing about it though is the crowd. Just goes to show how much of a cultural train wreck it is. Man can you imagine how Jerry Springer justifies his life to himself.

yeah i think it was staged, (well in a way i hope it was). Those two blokes must have been really upset and angry to fight like that. If i was there i would have stopped it and would have been really mad if people didn't help me! never mind.

He probably has loads of deep moments of clarity about his life while rolling about in his huge mountains of cash. It's easier that way.

I am sure Jerry Springer doesn't lie awake at night leaping through any moral flaming hoops. His internal argument will probably run along the following lines.

1: I am not arrogant enough to believe that I alter what America wants or is (good for me, even though I secretly hope and think that I do, let's ignore that, for the purposes of this discussion, I am humble and feel great about myself)

2: If this is the case then all I am doing is holding one huge mirror up to American society. In fact, if you take my first point on board, this is all I can ever do.

3: America needs to reflect on itself and look long and hard at what it has become. Only by facing the worst side of ourselves can we truly go forward as one. We should not hide everyday conflict, we should face it down....ooooh shit....that's good......hang on a minute.....I am sort of like a therapist for the nation.....through me it can display its pain and lick its wounds......and by putting the pain of the American psyche in the public arena I have become the saviour of liberal democracy.

4: If the general public want to see two standard height members of their own ranks fight, then why not two midgets.....yeah....stick that you liberal scumbags.....I DON'T WANT TO DISCRIMINATE. Talk your way out of that and stay fashionable.

......yeah ok Jerry. Well done. Firstly, your programme is a festival of barely hidden blood lust, it celebrates conflict and emotion and seems to have very little interesting the the “healing process”. I agree, you successfully manage to take advantage of almost everyone who appears regardless of height, weight, colour or creed (tick in equality box), the point that makes this particular scene so distasteful is nothing to do with the people involved - but the way that it was so obviously staged as a freak show.

“yeah great....shirts come off at this point guys....the audience has probably never seen errr....you....errr...sort of people with nothing on......do we call you midgets dwarves or what....hehe....anyway...the crowd will love it.......great......is it you has to roll around to get up...yeah...GREAT..they'll love that...you just go easy on him and make sure he can do that a few times, cause that looks really wierd.....Marcie, can I have another coffee please ? Do you guys drink coffee or would you like a juice instead ? Yeah....do you want a full cup or a half cup ?"

The tiny one is so tiny he can't even stand up on his own - did you see how he has to crawl over to the chair/backdrop to get himself on his feet? How annoying must that be. And was it entirely necessary for the fat one to get undressed? Probably not, but it got the crowd going.

Let's face it, you know midgets have got it bad if that lady midget is worth fighting over.

Dorri, given half a chance I'd be in that crowd. In the seat next to yours. “Miiiidget Fiiiight!"

Not sure about the name 'Masked Avenger'... maybe you should rename yourself Schizoman?

“2 Midgets Are Worth A Camel In Egypt."

Carly, I'm afraid I doubt the reliability of the source of your “facts”.

On Tuesday 6 February 2007 at 22:43, The Masked Avenger said:

Carly, I am afraid I have to agree with the good doctor on this. It is unlikely that any of those facts are going to find themselves within the pages of Grey's Anatomy anytime soon.

Rach, I did consider Schizoman but apparently I didn't like it.

I personally liked these -

FACT
Midgets Can Make Love Over 30 Times Per Hour

FACT
Midgets Hate Buying Porn As They Cant Reach The Top Shelf And Have To Ask A Tallie To Help Them.

FACT
Midgets Are Great Cooks Because They Have A Natural Affinty With Small Vegetables.

well how about this then?

The longest midget toss is said to have been made by an English truck driver named Jimmy Leanard. he tossed Lenny The Giant (4'4” , 98lbs.) 11 feet, 5 inches.
