  • 7: 50 I was in tears and by 8:08 I actually fell out of my chair.

  • hail cosby

  • Amazing Story, very funny! (and so true when you're a young drummer)

  • He says Cherokee!

  • He uses onomatopoeia better than any human being alive. "Shuck, shuck. Kick-a-boom."

  • @casaraku1 Because of Groucho Marx whose trademark was a cigar every up and coming comedian would take up smoking the cigar. This is why you see so many, including the Cos, smoking stogies. They wanted to emulate the greatest comedian who ever lived - Groucho Marx.

  • @tuxguys Jack died in late 1974, almost two years after this Cavett appearance. George Burns gave the eulogy at the funeral home, but couldn't finish it because he started bawling so Bob Hope had to take over. Jack and George were best friends.

  • Jack Benny falls out of his chair laughing! Nuff Said!!!

  • hahaha great

  • one of my favorite comedians
