In the 80s, I saw an episode featuring Michu. At one point, Michu warns Letterman not to mess with him "because Michu has been around". A shame RUclips doesn't have this gem. The kind of thing that made the old Letterman show worth watching.
Aww this was so nice to see :) My parents are acquaintances with his manager, Michu was spending time with a closer family friend of ours and he came over our house a few times. We are Hungarian also. I just remember my grandmother had Alzheimer's and she saw him walking in the backyard by himself (taking in the view) and she grabbed his hand and said, "Where is this little boys parents?! He's going to get lost!" Poor guy, he couldn't explain it to her... This was years after this show, he was 60 something.
Don Giller Their comment is from six months ago, so it isn't related to the current articles claiming he died in December, as it was written prior to them.
My Hungarian parents took us to the circus and afterwards called Mishu over. He was good friends with a guy with us, Tibor. I remember Mishu had a mouth on him and loved women. Saw him at a couple parties through the years.
Michu Mizaros, realmente fue grande ese hombre dejo un gran legado artistico circense y llego a la cuspide con ALF mi serie favorita, la de un ambiente familiar ideal...G.A.D.U lo tenga en su gloria .:.
Not sure if anyone mentioned it below so I'll mention it--he was on the cover (and back cover) of The Doors' "Strange Days" album (which I think was shot in Paris). That album was 1967 or 1968.
Dave was very good at having two conversations at the same time. He knows this whole thing is hilarious and the straighter he plays it the funnier it is.
ALF was primarily a puppet, not a costume. The puppeteer and voice was and is Paul Fusco. Michu was only the full body ALF, only the brief scenes where ALF is walking across the room or something. 99% of the time ALF was a puppet.
I didn't know that this little man was in the costume, but of course they synchronized it with another voice. I would like to know how he felt about it. I guess it has been a slap in his face that they did it. I mean it could have been possible to take his original voice and his accent because he was from Melmak in the story we all know
Incredible little human being the circus gave him an opportunity to use his size to give him a purpose in life pity he died it seems broke and not been able to get a proper burial .
@@Mrd9960 Great comment! Some people respond with nervous laughter at/in awkward or unusual situations. He appeared a little (no pun intended) annoyed! I had met Michu a few times. I'm a 2nd generation circus clown.
This is pitiful. Poor guy. Had to work in a freak show to survive. Also, the Ringling Brothers days of torturing elephants are over. The Greatest Show on Earth’ was anything, but.
It's a shame that Ringling Brothers is no longer in business, but I guess that this new generation didn't care for old fashioned entertainment like the older generations.
I guess you must of missed this decade of gain in political correctness and empathy for both animals and also the outcasts and less-advantaged, that were once considered nothing more than side-show freaks. A circus could never exist in this day and age.
@@hahna77 The circus IN GENERAL has been not only very cruel to its animals but also to the human entertainers. There's a dark side to it. Reminds me of Disneyland where everything is so supposedly beautiful on the outside but unbelievably dark on the inside.
Let's explain to the folks at home who Michu was.
Oh my god...call me when you’re done...
you know who he wasnt? you guessed it, Frank Stallone
Oh, oh...don't do this, don't do this!
Hahahaha im watching that super dave episode again, that's why im here
Hahaha
We'll miss this little man as many known him for playing in the ALF costume.
Of snap. Totally forgot that
And I thought that Bob Einstein had made up Michu for that joke on Norm's podcast.
Absolutely hard to believe...SuperDave Bob was spot on.
He made up the fact he didn't speak english
He lived till 76 so pretty good 👍
Will always remember him as alf.. great guy

This was his only appearance on Letterman.
Are you thinking of Ed Sullivan maybe?

I think you have alzheimers
I know him from the cover of the Doors album called--Strange Days.
OlfTheTerrible oh shit that’s him?
Wow!
Its not the same person the doors hired twin dwarf actors not michu.
Wasn’t Michu also in a James bond movie or was that waxwork?🤨
RIP Michu
No, he passed this last June.
Don Giller Their comment is from six months ago, so it isn't related to the current articles claiming he died in December, as it was written prior to them.
My response was to a recent comment that the poster has since deleted.
The post was written by a Virtuvian Mind, who wrote on December 29, 2016, "He just died. 29/12/16."
Ah, my bad!
Holy shit! The band played “Miss You” with guest Michu .... genius!
You are probably the only person that got that besides me!
I'll always remember him as Hans the butler from Waxwork.
Classic, I was surprised to find it on Amazon prime video.
I loved him in that movie
Amen
He terrified me in that movie.
Welcome to the waxwork. Great movie
I saw him at Madison Square Garden in 1977, in Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus. It was billed as the Marriage of Michu.
This is pretty touching and Letterman showed him much more respect than he did with, say, Paris Hilton.
Well this guy actually did stuff and entertained people.
@@LeoWhalen1933 The best comment in five years!
@@LeoWhalen1933 applauses to you
God bless his little soul
When I was a kid I had a poster of Michu and Juliana on the occasion of their wedding. I don't know why.
Миху Великий маленький человек. Царство ему небесное.
he played alf but lived a full life :)
Small man but with the biggest heart
I loved it when he told the audience off. Respect is key👍
My Hungarian parents took us to the circus and afterwards called Mishu over. He was good friends with a guy with us, Tibor. I remember Mishu had a mouth on him and loved women. Saw him at a couple parties through the years.
Michu was in an álbum of the doors called strange days
sad day, such a great man
Well I don't think that "great" is the right word
I saw him at Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus. It was advertised as "The Marriage of Michu".
I miss you alf😢😢😢😭😭😭😭🤬🤬😾
R.I.P. Michu🥺
I'm five years late but thanks for posting!
He's such a sweetheart
The Michu movement!! Such a fan
My dad would call cat Michu now I know we’re he got the names rest in power Mishima🌠✨💫
Children.....so very FUN !!
............cool.
he did not like being laughed at over the weak ass wise cracks. pleees, im vedy sediouse!! good for you little guy!
The voice of Alf was Paul fusco the creator of the show
Michu played the costume of Alf not the voice , voice amd creator was Paul Fusco
Michu played Alf only first season.
I love that guy lol👍
Loved ALF x
Now let’s explain to the folks at home what a talk show is
Michu Mizaros, realmente fue grande ese hombre dejo un gran legado artistico circense y llego a la cuspide con ALF mi serie favorita, la de un ambiente familiar ideal...G.A.D.U lo tenga en su gloria .:.
Leí que era muy difícil para él estar adentro de ese disfraz. Qué increíble es verlo.
Not sure if anyone mentioned it below so I'll mention it--he was on the cover (and back cover) of The Doors' "Strange Days" album (which I think was shot in Paris). That album was 1967 or 1968.
1967.
Dave was very good at having two conversations at the same time. He knows this whole thing is hilarious and the straighter he plays it the funnier it is.
That introduction guy looks like
Will Ferrell &
Joe Piscopo had a Love Child 😂
That “introduction guy”?
@@dongiller
LOL! YES, that's him.
😜
And, you know I'm not talking about Letterman😉
Q .e.p.d michus💿💿💿💿💿💿💿💿💿💿💿💿💿💿💿💿💿💿💿
Loved him in high plains drifter

Excellent info there cherri
Alf was a real alien.
@@Konverteraren😮
Was he really the little man form the Doors Strange Days album cover??
I saw him at the circus in Boston.
He's so cute,he luk's like a little old lady.
Rip......⚘
That right there is what the American dream is all about.
Mihaly is a Nice man how can people be so rude to tread him like a kid
❤
Alf❤
Oh.. i didn't know that
@@privateprivate1865 , he was in a costume in the full body shots. All others were the puppet.
I didn't know that this little man was in the costume, but of course they synchronized it with another voice. I would like to know how he felt about it. I guess it has been a slap in his face that they did it. I mean it could have been possible to take his original voice and his accent because he was from Melmak in the story we all know
If they ever do a reboot , it be great if they had Anne Sherridene , Alison (the gal who played the daughter) and Ben Gregory do guest cameos.
Old time Hasbulla
Incredible little human being the circus gave him an opportunity to use his size to give him a purpose in life pity he died it seems broke and not been able to get a proper burial .
Where’s the walleyed interpreter?
He looks like Linda Hunt!
Who's Linda Hunt?
The owner of the circus is so weird
A Jewish circus owner is weird? No way.
I agree. Very creepy.
Is his face?
hes awesome.
period case closed.
I thought subtitles would make it easier to understand, but they're pathetic. It must be automated.
they are laughing at him and he seems so annoyed :(
I don't think it was meant to be in a bad way, but they probably just didn't know what to make of this guy and how to react.
@@Mrd9960 Great comment! Some people respond with nervous laughter at/in awkward or unusual situations. He appeared a little (no pun intended) annoyed! I had met Michu a few times.
I'm a 2nd generation circus clown.
@@michaelridenour2113wikipedia lists his weight as 25lbs, does that check out?
Rip Alf
RIP
Ouch
I think he was a stand in double on, "#Poltergeist."
👀
He was also one of Michael Jackson's pets
Mihaly "Michu" Meszaros.
I heard he was a total pain to work with on set. Mega ego.
Not a great interview, sorry to say.
This is pitiful. Poor guy. Had to work in a freak show to survive. Also, the Ringling Brothers days of torturing elephants are over. The Greatest Show on Earth’ was anything, but.
Its like a little vandam
ALF
I thought super dave made him up
michai misarosh,...vengr,hungr,magyar(madiar)

4:54-4:58
What did he say?
Enchantment table
he doesnt sound like alf
He was the body of Alf, not the voice.
Thanks
Paul fusco is the voice of Alf....
Spoiler: It's not James Earl Jones in the Darth Vader costume, either.
Bill Trepkowski nope it's Harry Henderson
Alf
Se páresen a los cachetes de Kiko del chavo del ocho
Why is that other dude talking about Michu like he needs a translator or assistance?
Wtf loool “you will see him shortly” “he was with a small Hungarian circus” dude should do stand up
Honestly I thought Michu was a woman
americans treating him like a figure
Yoda
That's what I thought. I was gonna say how could he be Alf.
They didn't put him in any credit of Alf how unfair 😢😢😢
