John Cleese laments his own passing

[zimmermjaz]

WE ARE NOT WORTHY!

[85Aheadstix]

CLEESE IS THE GREATEST!!!!

never be another like him!.

[msroka5]

can we get more? where is it from?

[ITHEREONETHATHASNT]

Just reviewed his alimony settlement or whats in public record anyway. He should have killed her he would have spent a million on the hit and potentially 9 million on the legal defence but nt twenty million to a heartless prostitute.

0:19 I felt like reaching into the screen and giving him a hug lol !

[TheIcelandicPatriot]

The world will sourly miss John Cleese when he dies. 

[oliverandm]

And i'll have you know he is extremely polite! I was only 16 years old and not very well dressed or anything! Long hair and earrings, but he was so open and willing to talk! And a few hours later, there was a dinner event, and i'll tell you it was so funny man! First of, he actually recognized, waved and asked me to come on, at this point i had brought my elder brother along who was stoked too! The funniest part is when he made his talk, and some people outside the building stopped to just stare

[oliverandm]

This man is awesome! 2 years ago he did a speech for my mothers company and i begged to come along just to meet him. So i remember i sat in a booth looking down at the stage with all these business men and next to me sat John Cleese :D I would just stare at him instead of whoever was down on the stage. I remember he turned around at one point and said "excuse me, but did you hear what he said" and i had no idea what was said cause i was so amazed at sitting next to this genius of a man! :D

[Devoti]

he outdid every other comedian at that show, just introducing them...

[AndysEdits]

John Cleese set the benchmark. Ricky Gervais followed in a similiar way, and now Britain waits for its next legend to emerge.

[EragonFiresword]

@AndysEdits Surely you must be joking. Ricky Gervais?! You should feel ashamed that you even mentioned him in the same paragraph as Cleese!

[ProNorden]

@AndysEdits ..Izzard maybe? In America it's Stephen Colbert and John Stewart.

[85Aheadstix]

@ProNorden American comdeians arent funny, they just tell dick and fart jokes.

[ProNorden]

@85Aheadstix Rubbish. Haven't you listened to Garrison Keillor, Bill Barr, Doug Stanhope, Collin Quinn, Steven Wright, Chris Rock, Ron White, Stephen Colbert, and John Stewart ?

How could you say something like that? That's completely false...Slanderous...Appalling­... I'm vexed ...and in high dudgeon...

But did you hear the one about the fellow who could fart with his.....

[85Aheadstix]

@ProNorden Stewarts not really funny, he just says whitty shit!, Chris rock yeah i guess but he still bases everything on fat jokes, same as murphy who just does kids movie voices now, ive never even heard of those other guys.

[ProNorden]

@85Aheadstix 'fat jokes' by Chris Rock ? Not likely ..most of his material is about socio-economic stuff, and great. Check his 'Kill the Messenger' , 'Never Scared' and, of course, 'Bring the Pain'...great comedy concerts ..DVDs to love and memorize ..also some clips available on YouTube.

And check out the YT clips of the others, especially Keillor's 'The News From Lake Wobegon' pieces ..and Colbert doing 'The Colbert Report'.

What's wrong with you? Why don't you know these things?

[limbs32]

John Cleese has nothing but my utmost respect. Thanks from America :D

[Xanatan1]

The fellow really is a master at it. A natural. Eternal respect Mr. Cleese, you will always have been an important cultural part of our generation.

[Pyltje02]

you have great comedians.  Then you have awsome comedians. Then you get kings of comedy. Way...way ...way passed those you get the true gods of comedy. And they all take lessons from John Cleese.

[rnimtz]

true

[WolfySnackrib666]

@Pyltje02 Now that is a compliment truly worthy of John Cleese!

[Kayzaks]

John Cleese is the King of Comedy. There has never been a better and there never will be.

[bramlegend]

@Kayzaks Toon Hermans was a legendary comedian in Belgium and The Netherlands as well, if he would have been talking english he might have been legendary all over the world, him and cleese would make a hilarious couple. ah well he's dead now.( not John, but Toon)
