History Funny / TwentyOnePilots

* While shooting motion capture footage for their ''VideoGame/{{Roblox}}'' concert, Josh took a [[ToiletHumor bathroom break]]… [[https://twitter.com/twentyonepilots/status/1435602796733214729?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Etweet with his suit still on]]. Every movement of his got captured by the motion capture software.

* When they won a UsefulNotes/{{Grammy Award}} for "Stressed Out" in 2017, Tyler and Josh seemingly inexplicably took off their pants before taking the stage in boxer briefs. Tyler then gave his rationale for the decision in his acceptance speech, which is equal parts silly and SugarWiki/{{heartwarming|Moments}}:

--->'''Ben''': It's a two person cab, but only one person can drive it.
--->'''Tyler''': Kinda sounds like our band. [[{{Beat}} *receives look from Josh*]] I don't wanna be awkward about it, but I am the lead singer.

* During the 2016 Emotional Roadshow, Tyler, Josh, and opening bands Mutemath and Chef'Special covered Music/CelineDion's "My Heart Will Go On". The fact that they played the ''Film/{{Titanic|1997}}'' song with complete sincerity is funny itself, but Josh brought it over the top by replicating the film's most famous scene by standing in front of Tyler, arms spread Kate Winslet-style, at the song's high note.

-->Anti Monkey Butt Powder: You can't go wrong with a little Donkey Kong.
-->Wet Ones: Keeping things wet since 1988.
-->Hydrogen Peroxide: Got ebola? [[CrossesTheLineTwice Not anymore.]]
-->Hanes Undertees: If you don't got brains, you don't got Hanes.
* Josh changed his Twitter username to "Spooky Josh"[[note]]A ShoutOut to Series/TheXFiles ("Spooky Mulder") as Josh is [[JustForFun/OneOfUs a fan]].[[/note]] for October 2014. After October was over, he was flooded with people tweeting him telling to change his name since Halloween was over... so he changed it to [[ExactWords "Spooky Jim"]].
* For some reason, a German TV program once asked Tyler and Josh to act out the balcony scene of ''Theatre/RomeoAndJuliet''... in German. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8ct1QE5QZ4 The results were humorous.]]
** After hilariously stumbling through the German script, Tyler doesn't recognize "Capulet" as the original English name and pronounces it as "Capoolet". [[HiddenDepths He is immediately corrected by Josh.]]

* During the 2015 [=VMAs=], the band was seated two rows behind Music/KanyeWest. One of the "moments" of the evening was Kanye dancing to Music/TheWeeknd. In all videos/gifs of this, the band are visible behind him. While Jenna, Josh, and {{Music/Halsey}}[[note]]Whom Josh brought as his date[[/note]] all seem fairly normal, if a little bored, Tyler looks [[https://vine.co/v/eITKOK1mOgz incredibly uncomfortable]]. The following day, Buzzfeed put up a "Which Audience Member Sitting Behind Dancing Kanye Are You?" quiz. Unfortunately whoever ''made'' the quiz was unfamiliar with the band and not only mistook Jenna for a seat filler (and Halsey for Ruby Rose), but ended up making Tyler's result "''That guy who just fucking hates Kanye''".[[note]]The fanbase made enough noise about this in the comment section that the quiz was later updated to correct all three of these mistakes. There was also, unfortunately, no Josh result.[[/note]]

-->'''Tyler''': -but when I see someone with an [[Website/{{Twitter}} egg profile pic]], they don't matter!
-->'''Josh''': But my stance is that they do matter. And so do you. Vote for Josh Dun.

-->'''Voice-Over''': Josh Dun: a loving, caring family man. But did you know [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotHeinous he pours his milk before he pours his cereal]]?
-->'''Tyler''': My name's Tyler Joseph and I approve this message.[[note]]Josh would later protest this as a blatant falsehood.[[/note]]

-->'''Voice-Over''': Josh Dun: an enthusiastic show drummer. But does he know the lyrics to his own songs? Well... he knows, like, "Holding On To You" because he's been playing it for so many years. But the other stuff? No.
** That being said, Josh's attacks had some great humor too.
-->'''Voice-Over:''' Tyler Joseph says he will get everyone verified on Twitter. But do you know who's ''not'' verified on Twitter? [[HypocriticalHumor His entire family.]]
-->'''Josh:''' My name is Josh Dun and I approve this message.

** At the start, David claims that Josh's name is Todd, even when he and Tyler both try to correct him.

--> ''oh,[[BlatantLies i was taking a bath]]''

* The music video for "Saturday" includes the original song's clip of Tyler talking to Jenna about finishing working on a song rather than go to watch ''Series/{{Friends}}'', despite the music video taking place on a sinking submarine. Tyler takes the call while up to his chest in water and Josh [[DuctTapeForEverything attempts to tape up holes in the hull]] [[FunnyBackgroundEvent in the background]]. The scene is punctuated by Josh "stealing" Tyler's subsequent high-note, complete with a dramatic zoom.

--->'''Tyler''': Kinda sounds like our band. [[{{Beat}} *receives look from Josh*]] I don't wanna be awkward about it, but [[FaceOfTheBand I am the lead singer]].

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIoB3kNDK90 David McCreary's]] interview of Tyler and Josh that's way too awkward and hilarious to not be staged.[[note]]It was- [=McCreary=] is friends with both from their home church, and Tyler has collaborated with him in a few comedy acts.[[/note]]

-->'''David''': Do we just wait for the rest of the guys, or...?\\
