Now, I know these photos probably have been posted on tumblr before, but I rarely post things and I would like to do that more often, especially as I think I can learn how to make GiFs again. I don’t know who the owners are of these photos but of course I claim no ownership on these amazing photos of Rik.

I found these on Google and I figured that these photos hadn’t been seen online very much except with those hardcore Rik fans. I specifically chose photos of Rik which actually indicate that he was one handsome fella and as they are photos of him in his youth, these are probably all the more rare compared to later ones.
My main point of this post is to show appreciation of not only Rik’s devilishly good looks, but ALSO to prove that a man like this obviously has ultimate talent. Why does these photos prove this?
because HOW thE FUCK CAN A MAN LOOK AS GOOD AS THIS BUT ALSO MANAGE TO MAKE HIMSELF LOOK SO UGLY WITH ALL THE COMEDY CHARACTERS THAT HE PORTRAYS???!!!
I mean it’s like he’s two different people because I sWAER I have never seen someone as amazingly sexy as this guy whilst simulatenously looking ridiculous and well, just not handsome! It’s a talent for sure because he does everything in his power to ensure that he’s the repulsive person ever, but we ALL know that it’s a real struggle because honestly I still think he’s handsome when he’s in The Young Ones, Bottom and all his roles in The Comic Strip.
HE is the epitome of someone who can pull literally any face that you could think of and look good doing it.
There’s only one Rik Mayall, and he shan’t ever be forgotten.
BONUS PIC (he can’t have been any older than 20 here, especially as this must be before he was famous - that long though)
