Not quite the same thing, but when he did an episode of “inside the actors studio,’ a young man in the back of the auditorium had to be taken to hospital, he’d herniated himself laughing.
I was there and I'm in the video. I'm the one in the patrol cap with the bald spot on the back of my head. Robin was awesome and was the best of them all that night.
@@lauriek6424 Thank you. I was sooo excited to see him. A guy in my unit and I were at the stage trying to get an Autograph but the people in charge took him away too soon. But he was great.
Billy Crystal said something in an interview that I now know is true. He was talking about how much Robin LOVED doing USO tours, and that if you really want to see his best work, you have to join the service. This was hilarious.
I will never forget this day. I was just coming off of r&r and my unit was supposed to pick me up. Fortunately for me, they were out on mission so I had to stay out at KAF for an extra 5 days. I'm so glad I got to meet this wonderful man before his tragic passing. He truly lightened up the rest of our Time in Afghanistan and I hope he is resting peacefully.
I remember finding out about his passing... I was in a line of humvees getting checked by the mechanics at Ft. Bragg (Ft. Liberty now) rip, Rob, and thanks for your service sir.
The King of all Comedians. Long live the King. His humor and kindness will live on after his soul has passed on, for generations to come. hopefully, for humanities sake.
What is amazing about Mr Williams...one thing that is, anyway...is that the clip contains about 15 minutes of RW's act, and I would imagine about 12 of those 15 minutes were completely improvised on the spot. The ability to do that and do it well is a mark of extremely rare genius. RIP Robin.
yeah, I recognize 90% from when I saw his 2009 "Weapons of Self Destruction" tour and DVD. The other 10% is locally developed 'In Field' material. Just for them. We miss that funny man alot.
Thanks for uploading!! Robin was a gift from God! He also lived in his own stratosphere! He suffered from side effects of those meds! He was majestic and a genius! A once in a lifetime phenomenon! He is missed! A Legend!!
I wrote this after the death of Robin Williams, August 2014. I laughed so much I cried I laughed so much I nearly died It was all too much It was all too little too late The demons that haunted you at night in bed Was the emptiness in your head and not your soul All those years lost searching For redemption from prying eyes not knowing That this clown Was burdened by an unimaginable dark cloud The loss of your dearest departed friend Didn't mean it signaled the end But it did steal something And left a remarkable gift so amazing and profound. When on one hand it took, the other you received and gave It was not enough to silence the millions of critics in your mind Why didn't we spot you were running out of time? I laughed at an Alien called Mork From a planet called Ork My heart bled for the beauty of The Dead Poets Society And how could deary me, Forget Mrs Doubtfire, that wonderful Scottish nanny. The Doctor you played in Good Will Hunting, Gave a tiny clue to your depth of compassion and feeling. But, alas the greatest character you played was the one we never truly knew. S.Miah
Do you know Jesus Christ? Then you know Robin Williams. God is Robin's Dad. Robin is God's Law. That poem is beautiful and so are you! You are a very good person and blessed by God, for sure. Robin was perfect. He was doing what he needed to do to die with love privacy and being a regular guy just like you and me.
Wow that was beautiful… I’m pretty young (he died when I was 8) and I’m so annoyed and sad that I didn’t get to watch anything from him sooner. I never knew how much I loved this guy until I looked through the cast list of some of my favorite movies. Every year I watch Good Will Hunting at least twice and his specials throughout the year cuz man he was awesome. Sorry for the rambling ☹️
Robin was one of, if not the Best comedian of his time. The world is a sadder place without him. He was so good at visiting the troops and giving them a funny evening they would talk about for years. He is missed!
My Niece is in the Airforce. I'm stoked shes chosen the Military. More than anything I want to say to ALL Military. Past, Present, and Future. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING! All the sacrifices. It takes specially made people that are not only Able, but you all CHOOSE to protect this Nation. As well as protect Allies all over the World. I THANK YOU From the bottom of my being. My Grandfather was an intelligence officer for the Army in the Pacific in WWII. My three great Uncles who lived in Norway, were murdered by the national socialist party. AKA Nazis. They all worked heavily with the Norwegian resistance. My Great-Great grandparents sent my great Grandfather as the lone survivor of this family.my great great grandmother knew what was more than likely going to happen. And To think, the folks had to choose what kid to save outa the 2 twins as they were only 8. The 3 older brothers were in their late teens to mid 20s. And so my great Grandfather was sent to the USA by boat, so the entire family bloodline wouldn't be eliminated. Now, there's a big family just off of one man that was "adopted" by a single woman, who raised him. Genealogy is amazing. Tons of Military in our bloodlines. Ohh hey, I'm a direct decendant of Daniel Boon! Again THANK YOU to all troops!! We're praying for all of you. Especially since the usurper who claims the Presidency is sending you guys back into harms way certainly. Which I'm sorry. Know that the one and Only God, the only Tri-une God. Has his hand of protection upon you guys. Pray for the End of this baboon in office. So we will be able properly be able to get all civilians out. And not leave something like 50+ Billion worth of OUR weaponry, hummers, and gear, up the waa-zoo!!! Then properly get our guys HOME!!! Enough is enough. The entire administration must go!
Dedicated to the inimitable Robin Williams The humble stand-up made the world laugh. I improvised every second. He easily brought to tears Your viewer and your listener Robin Williams pedaled. And maneuvered through his life. Yes ... His path was not sinless There is versatility, you can't turn away from it Good-naturedly and energetically he lived on Earth I flew to the soldiers in the war. Responded to requests from his fans People like him are not born twice From "Happy Days" to "This is a fucking Christmas miracle" Many different roles have been played. Actor Robin Williams of various plans From comedies to snot Loved children and rare books Bicycles and computer games. Was also a geek of cinema Collected what touched him No conviction from suicide He could no longer make peace with himself. Losing memory and self-control Robin settled the score and left bitterly ... Robin's creativity does not fade away. He lives in the hearts of fans. Probably laughing with the Almighty in the sky Robin Williams will never stop ...
Today's Soldier's unfortunately would probably be offended this and claim EO or Sharp on Mr Williams. RIP 🙏 Sir Robin Williams 🙏 You're awesome ❤😊😂 love and still watch all your stand ups and movies. ❤😊😂
Jim who? Billy Connolly was far far better. Tommy Cooper didn't even have to speak. Ronnie Barker for perfect timing. Eric Morecombe just because. I could go on.
To be honest he would have been both terrified and amused and oh my God this mess we call covid 19 would have given him so much material but at the same time he would have given us so much hope and laughter when we needed it the most
Please out of respect for those who were there, and their service ,NO STOLEN VALOR in comments. There are people who say they were there or in the service and lie about it to get respect from others.Salute to all who have served.Apoligies for my rant.
Says this is 5 of 5, does anybody know where can I find the other 4 before this, would be much appreciated, sorry I'm not very tech savvy lol. Stupid youtube didn't put it in recommended with this video for some reason and also not in the playlist attached to this video 🤦♂️ kinda defeats the purpose of those doesn't it lol.
For purposes of protecting the name of my old instructor I will not be using his name but his rank. here’s a short story about Robin. My former Air Force 1stMSgt met Robin Williams at that exact event, he wasn’t a shirt at the time, but he was there on security, for the aircraft Robin came in. He and this other guy didn’t get to see the show. When Robin got done, he went back to his plane, and asked MSgt if he and the other guy that he was there with, if they got to see the show, my MSgt said no. Robin then proceeded to invite them on the aircraft, even though they initially declined bc of their orders. But after a few moments of him basically going into a new act, he asked them again and they finally gave in and Robin made sure that they got to laugh as much as the others did from the USO event, kind of like a private show. My MSgt said that he couldn’t have imagined a cooler person to meet, and that he had never laughed so hard in his life. He got a picture with him before he left, after an hour of joking and talking with them. This is my favorite story about Robin Williams because it really shows his character he was always kind and I wish his demons were kinder to him. RIP
Every soldier knows that while they wear their issued reflective belt enemy bullets have no chance of finding them. Only drill sergeants have the supernatural ability to strike a private down while they are wearing their reflective belt.
Robin Williams was a king among all of the comedians, when he took his own life,a lot of us lost so much sparkle from such a wonderful man. It just goes to show that even if the face is smiling, that behind the facade is something else we don't recognise and never knew about his ( or anyone else's deep depression). I can only pray that people learn from this tragedy and seeks help. God bless robin and look forward to catching up with him on the other side..
Robin Williams was suffering from a devastating form of Parkinson, called Lewe's body disease. Severe depression is a symptom of that, the end would have been horrible with him losing all his faculties and his family having to deal with that. I do not know if he was under treatment for that, but Parkinson is still basically a one way trip to the end. What can we learn from a tragedy like this? Not much I am afraid, maybe that we need to provide those who suffer from a terminal illness with very bleak prospects a dignified way out, not having to resort to hanging yourself with a belt.
He was not depressed. He chose to die for privacy and love and to be a regular guy. He was totally in control over his own free will. Leave him alone. He is God.
Robin literally almost killed. There were soldiers choking in the audience they were laughing so hard. RIP to a great man.
I agree 110% with you fr.Mb Canada. Robin will be missed.
Not quite the same thing, but when he did an episode of “inside the actors studio,’ a young man in the back of the auditorium had to be taken to hospital, he’d herniated himself laughing.
😢😢😢😢😢😢
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER drink coffee while watching Robin Williams.....
any alcohol is worse.
It went up my nose ! pffffttt lol ... damn ...cough ..lol Wife , " What is wrong with you ? I'm fucking drowning
Don't watch a clip of Robin Williams if you're planning to go to sleep. I've been watching these for hours now.
No, NEVER drink ANYTHING when watching Robin.... EVER
Or any kind of drink. U won't hv it left. In HS he was voted least likely to succeed in what he did!!!!
I was there and I'm in the video. I'm the one in the patrol cap with the bald spot on the back of my head. Robin was awesome and was the best of them all that night.
Patrick Cusack What a treat for you. Thank you for your service.
@@lauriek6424 Thank you. I was sooo excited to see him. A guy in my unit and I were at the stage trying to get an Autograph but the people in charge took him away too soon. But he was great.
What a fantastic experience it must have been, this is literally Williams at the top of his game, nothing but love!
Thank you, Patrick Cusak, and all your buds. Sorry it’s so fucked up now. Wouldn’t Robin have a comedy freak today!
Glad you got to see him give you guys a good show, and Glad you made it back!
Billy Crystal said something in an interview that I now know is true. He was talking about how much Robin LOVED doing USO tours, and that if you really want to see his best work, you have to join the service. This was hilarious.
@Quaker 2019
That sounds like Robin.
On 9/11/01, Mr. Williams went to the nearest Red Cross Center and donated blood. Good man.
Listen to the troops laugh. What a Godsend.
Mr Williams was a savage on stage. The only celebrity that is gone that i miss. Rest in peace sir!
So Sad He felt he had no other way out.
Made everyone else Happy and Laugh yet was Crying and Dying inside ...... Sad
Full respect for that man and the men he did this show for!
Men and women serving
@@tenchu65I didn't see any women in the audience, but I think we ALL know that both men and women serve. No one was trying to rain on their parade.
I will never forget this day. I was just coming off of r&r and my unit was supposed to pick me up. Fortunately for me, they were out on mission so I had to stay out at KAF for an extra 5 days. I'm so glad I got to meet this wonderful man before his tragic passing. He truly lightened up the rest of our Time in Afghanistan and I hope he is resting peacefully.
I remember finding out about his passing... I was in a line of humvees getting checked by the mechanics at Ft. Bragg (Ft. Liberty now) rip, Rob, and thanks for your service sir.
The King of all Comedians. Long live the King. His humor and kindness will live on after his soul has passed on, for generations to come. hopefully, for humanities sake.
What is amazing about Mr Williams...one thing that is, anyway...is that the clip contains about 15 minutes of RW's act, and I would imagine about 12 of those 15 minutes were completely improvised on the spot. The ability to do that and do it well is a mark of extremely rare genius. RIP Robin.
yeah, I recognize 90% from when I saw his 2009 "Weapons of Self Destruction" tour and DVD. The other 10% is locally developed 'In Field' material. Just for them. We miss that funny man alot.
Pure genius. He will be forever missed.
I swear he saved his best performances for the USO shows.
That last one... Omg... I teared up while laughing.
not so funny when its your mother is it ;)
Robin Williams, the fucking legend of all legends.
Adzzy Mitchell The Comic of Time
He's One of Them.
Amen! what a man!
Adzzy I
RIP Robin, even after all these years your brilliance still makes us laugh and smile.
Nothing better for a depression than to watch Robin.
I never saw this and Im dying, so happy he did this to cheer up the troops. Rest in Peace Robin Williams.
And once again I stumble across a random Robin Williams performance and am crying with laughter. What a treasure this guy was.
What a guy. Thank you for the laughter, Robin. We need you more than ever.
Thanks for uploading!!
Robin was a gift from God! He also lived in his own stratosphere! He suffered from side effects of those meds! He was majestic and a genius! A once in a lifetime phenomenon! He is missed! A Legend!!
I wrote this after the death of Robin Williams, August 2014.
I laughed so much I cried
I laughed so much I nearly died
It was all too much
It was all too little too late
The demons that haunted you at night in bed
Was the emptiness in your head and not your soul
All those years lost searching
For redemption from prying eyes not knowing
That this clown
Was burdened by an unimaginable dark cloud
The loss of your dearest departed friend
Didn't mean it signaled the end
But it did steal something
And left a remarkable gift so amazing and profound.
When on one hand it took, the other you received and gave
It was not enough to silence the millions of critics in your mind
Why didn't we spot you were running out of time?
I laughed at an Alien called Mork
From a planet called Ork
My heart bled for the beauty
of The Dead Poets Society
And how could deary me,
Forget Mrs Doubtfire, that wonderful Scottish nanny.
The Doctor you played in Good Will Hunting,
Gave a tiny clue to your depth of compassion and feeling.
But, alas the greatest character you played was the one we never truly knew.

He can never be replaced....
Thank God for video and movies, in that way we will never be without Robin...ever.
Robin was one of, if not the Best comedian of his time. The world is a sadder place without him. He was so good at visiting the troops and giving them a funny evening they would talk about for years. He is missed!
I miss him so much...
May he rest in peace.
Rest in powerful peace my favorite celebrity and homie of all time 🙏
RIP to a true legend!
He is definitely resting in peace. He is like Jesus Christ, too, or God.
Absolute genius. I really needed a good laugh. Thanks Robin, RIP.
2 day later I am still laughing
Somewhere in the audience sat a red faced triggered Major
--WHO WHO.
That would've been happy casy Robin go off on the triggered major.
I haven't laughed that hard in a while. I needed that.
We miss you Robin!
I have watched this several times on several sources and even knowing what is going to happen I still laugh so hard I am about to pass out.
Thank you for posting this

The speech that he gave in the movie ‘Jack’ was a heads up to us all of his future passing. What a great beacon of light. RIP oh, Captain!
Ok, I could barely make it through this. My stomach hurts from laughing. Robin was a pure comic genius and boy is he missed.
The pt belt had me going. Many Morning spent watching short shorts and those belts. 2-12 Infantry Regiment Ft Carson CO
What a loss...AND...when was he there, I must've just missed this!
Absolutely miss Robin Williams
This is hilarious 🤣
The dude was still killing it in his later years :)
RIP Robin, RIP
His energy shall float in the cosmos forever
Dedicated to the inimitable Robin Williams
The humble stand-up made the world laugh.
I improvised every second.
He easily brought to tears
Your viewer and your listener
Robin Williams pedaled.
And maneuvered through his life.
Yes ... His path was not sinless
There is versatility, you can't turn away from it
Good-naturedly and energetically he lived on Earth
I flew to the soldiers in the war.
Responded to requests from his fans
People like him are not born twice
From "Happy Days" to "This is a fucking Christmas miracle"
Many different roles have been played.
Actor Robin Williams of various plans
From comedies to snot
Loved children and rare books
Bicycles and computer games.
Was also a geek of cinema
Collected what touched him
No conviction from suicide
He could no longer make peace with himself.
Losing memory and self-control
Robin settled the score and left bitterly ...
Robin's creativity does not fade away.
He lives in the hearts of fans.
Probably laughing with the Almighty in the sky
Robin Williams will never stop ...
Genius..... Miss him so much.
A prince. Thanks for posting.
This is amazing. I've laughing for 20 minutes. Oh man...
Pure Genius Mr Robin Williams God Bless 🌹
I was there; it was great to see him and Lewis Black live
One entertainer who is definitely missed
Fantastic performance
A real patriot right there.
Robin Williams was a rock star.
Thanks so much for this video! I laughed so hard when he did Doubtfire!
Omg I laughed so hard I was crying!! ROFL!!

Today's Soldier's unfortunately would probably be offended this and claim EO or Sharp on Mr Williams. RIP 🙏 Sir Robin Williams 🙏 You're awesome ❤😊😂 love and still watch all your stand ups and movies. ❤😊😂
Patriot legend.
The guy is so important in what he was willing to say!
God I miss him so freaking funny
He was a great loose
RIP Robin Williams.
Is that Lewis Black and Kathleen Madigan standing on the back of the stage, watching? What dedication. The audience deserved the best.
Robin the best
Brilliant! What a closer at the end! 🤣
OMG - I'm laughing too much , I can't breath
His Comedy was faster then the speed of thought 🤣
I have never laughed so much. This was so funny.
Awesome
For the USA, it was Robin Williams. For us Brits, it was Jim Davidson. Both are great
Jim who? Billy Connolly was far far better. Tommy Cooper didn't even have to speak. Ronnie Barker for perfect timing. Eric Morecombe just because. I could go on.
Dildo Baggins!!! funniest shit ever lol!
Vale G.O.A.T
Frikkin killin😅
Can someone please Explain why Mr. Williams (RIP) is wearing that Yellow Strap around his chest?
0:42 to skip the introducer
❤😘
06:45 - 07:25
P.S. If you die by excessive laughing from this portion, me, the channel and other parties concerned will not be held responsible.
I miss Mrs. Williams little boy.
Wonder what he would think of what's happening now
To be honest he would have been both terrified and amused and oh my God this mess we call covid 19 would have given him so much material but at the same time he would have given us so much hope and laughter when we needed it the most
Please out of respect for those who were there, and their service ,NO STOLEN VALOR in comments. There are people who say they were there or in the service and lie about it to get respect from others.Salute to all who have served.Apoligies for my rant.

Now they'd be 32 sharp violations
Nearly peed myself
Barbour jacket?
I was there... It's hilarious watching it on RUclips but it was 10× funnier in person and brightened the holiday season! RIP, brother
well done and thankyou
I almost fell on my chair laughing!!! Haha real funny robin
Just want to say thank you.
I love that they made him wear a PT belt
why did he have to wear the yellow band
can we give all the kardashians and kaitlyn jenner to have back Robin Williams
Given the circumstances surrounding his death....I don't think he wants to come back.
Akenyan Tune well, maybe back and healthy.
jkay3161
His name is, was, and always be, Bruce.
@Breeze Dorling Yeah it's a great one if he were to be happy
One condition...that he return with a healed brain since it was the horrors produced by his old one that killed him.
For purposes of protecting the name of my old instructor I will not be using his name but his rank. here’s a short story about Robin.

This is my favorite story about Robin Williams because it really shows his character he was always kind and I wish his demons were kinder to him. RIP
STILL watching this in 2019, simply was the greatest comedian to walk this earth
2021...
He really was the best.
HERE IN 2023 ***
AND STILL HAVEN'T STOPPED LAUGHING 🤣
“Erotic is using the feather, porn is using the entire chicken” 😂
He was absolutely on fire that night! What a legend.

This, absolutely. Having the choice to end one's life in a dignified fashion when one is ill, everybody should have that right.
He checked out on his own terms, before his illness truly robbed him of his health and vitality. I mourn his passing, but respect his decision.
@@BlackWit11 Few people know that depression is often a part of tremor conditions
He was not depressed. He chose to die for privacy and love and to be a regular guy. He was totally in control over his own free will. Leave him alone. He is God.
Climaxitol. Seriously. How come it's not available yet? :)
This was so funny I nearly pissed myself
heaven is now a better place....rip to the king of comedy....
