Description

Bill Murray shared a hilarious story on The Graham Norton Show about a book titled Making Out in Japanese that he had purchased years before filming Lost in Translation. Inside, he learned an intense Japanese phrase meaning "Who do you think you're talking to?", which turned out to be a deadly threat associated with the Yakuza. Years later at 5:30 AM in a hotel, Bill was happily singing along to The Beatles at full volume on his new iPod when an angry giant guest stormed into the hallway to scream at him. Bill calmly looked at him and recited the terrifying phrase, causing the massive man to turn ghostly white, run down the hallway, and lock his door. Seeing a giant man sprint away in terror after Bill Murray accidentally terrified him with a Yakuza threat is pure gold. #billmurray #lostintranslation #thegrahamnortonshow #japan #yakuza #behindthescenes #funny #viral #funnymoments #shorts #comedy #interview #latenight #celebritystories 📝 Every upload is transformed from the ground up — original edits, custom subtitles, overlays, and real critical commentary.
