Louis Theroux is comfortably among the greatest documentarians of our time.
His latest documentary A Different Brain, about what happens to people after brain injuries alter their personalities, has created a lot of buzz and discussion on social media.
Over the course of his career he has confronted neo-Nazis, the Westboro Baptists Church, the Church of Scientology and many other controversial institutions. This means that at any given time, there’s a solid chance of something ridiculous happening in one of his documentaries.
This becomes a lot more stark once you start to screengrab those moments and take them out of context. That’s exactly what new Twitter account ‘No Context Louis’ is doing, and we love it.

The man himself tweeted about the account in his typically understated and British fashion.
This is kind of funny… @NoContextLouis

Kind of funny indeed, Mr. Theroux.
