Getting roasted by Mel Brooks is a the highest level of comedic flattery. Andy will proudly tell that story for the rest of his life.
It's his career highlight.
He is Andy Richter, the Swedish German!!!
This week apparently Mel was at the launch of History of the World Part 2, and he told the audience the weather report he had just heard in the car. He's almost 97 and he physically can't stop making people laugh. A true legend.
Mel Brooks is absolutely hilarious, of course, but Conan's genuine, joyful laughter in response to the gag really makes the clip for me!
But UA-cam is all about censorship. Noticed all the extra ads lately?
You better not DARE say anything about them. The google is so EVIL these days.
Even Mel Brooks recognizes the majesty of an Andy Richter one-liner.
That damn Swedish German
@@IAMYAMAMA At least he's got some dignity left..
"That's Andy Richter... sometimes he's actually good!" 🤣🤣🤣
So true
What I love about it is that no one notices the extra finger until he points it out. He's moving his hand around and putting it on Conan's desk. But no one sees it. And you can see that Mel is tickled about it.
Once he raised both of his hands, I was like "OHWAITAGAWTDAMNMINUTE"
Except that the punchline was ruined by the thumbnail to the video
This man has incredible energy for a 87 years old. And still going strong at 96!
I legit freaked out before clicking! I thought he had passed. Thank God this legend is still with us.
Same. I googled him first. 🤣
yeah his new movie is coming out that's why lol, scared me too
The hell? Mel got his Hollywood square in 2014? Shouldn't that have happened like 30 years prior? Man's a legend!
Hollywood is a weird place even towards legends.
RIGHT! Especially after Blazing Saddles!
Raise your hand if you didn't notice he had six fingers until after he revealed his hand, and then you went back and realized it was like that for the whole video.
i noticed it halfway through the video and thought to google "mel brooks 6 fingers", only to be revealed that its a fake finger at the end 😂
There are, apparently, two types of people in the world, and I am like@@BenJalil.
It's the thumbnail
I noticed on the thumbnail
Actually, I did notice it before he revealed it, but he was waving the hand around so much I was doubting my own eyes until I finally managed to pause the video when his hand was in full view.
andys mafia joke was pretty solid
Andy's quips are ALWAYS solid tho
Andy Richter is a legend and doesn't get the credit he's deserved.
When it comes to comedy, you can count on Mel’s sixth sense. He’s got the fingers for it
Haha
Mel Brooks, 97, and still shining like a star! What a guy, what a legend!
I love Mel. His movies shaped my sense of humour from a young age.
Maybe one day someone will look at Mel Brooks' footprints and wonder, "How did he do such fantastic stunts with such little feet?" 😏 That's a "Blazing Saddles" reference.
“COMB THE DESERT!”
Rumour has it a man named Iñigo Montoya is still looking for him
Mel's a legend of course but so is Andy for always chiming in once with the one funniest thing at the exact right time
Andy came out of absolutely nowhere and knocked it our of the park with that mafia joke!! Even Conan couldn't believe it lol
Omg I bet Andy’s soul left his body when Mel laughed at his joke and shook his hand
Dude is 96 years old and still has energy
Yeah he very sharp, I mean makes sense, great comedic genius.
@@fatsuperfly This was aired 2014 numb nuts
this interview is from 2014, so he was around 86 (still lots of energy for his age)
For Mel Brooks to exclusively do this on Conan is saying something!!!!
There's never been anyone like Mel Brooks...and there might never be again.
A cheerful heart is good medicine lets you know it has done well for Mel. Always loved Mel Brooks. Starring in some of my favorite comedies but my Number 2 is Blazing Saddles cause my Number one is Harlem Nights but Young Frankenstein is a laugh til you cry as well. Thanks Mel Brooks for being passionate about making us laugh. 96 and without a cane. Wow. You go my man.
Mel Brooks was the first and one of the biggest (next to Monty Python and the Marx Brothers) of my comedic influences, ever since seeing "Spaceballs" for the first time when I must have been five, maybe six years old. I didn't get all the jokes and references back then, but I recognised funny when I saw it. "Young Frankenstein" is still the funniest movie ever made
And after nearly 40 years there is finally going to be a History of the World Part 2. It's good to be the king.
I remember watching spaceballs with My dad as a kid and laughing , not cuz I understood the jokes. just cuz My dad was. (and same for mst3k) 😅
Honestly, he got me too. I caught the extra finger when he held his hands up and immediately went on a Google image hunt thinking Mel Brooks had six fingers on his left hand.
He killed Inigo Montoya's father.
LOL, I did the EXACT same thing
I ran into Mel three times in the first month when I moved to LA in 1990. The guy is awesome. At some point, I probably assumed this sort of thing would always happen while living there.
Where can I get one of those? That’s a good idea because I just noticed his hand and was like “does he have 6 fingers?” Lol good prank.
That's the funniest thing - I thought he must have surreptitiously put on the extra finger during the interview, but I went back and he has it on the whole time, but nobody noticed.
They were just then giving him his foot and handprints? WTF?????
0:52 I questioned my memory of Mel Brooks until I realized it was a gag
You know what blows my mind? He's a WWII veteran too.
"Tragedy is when I cut my finger,
comedy is when I walk into an open sewer and die."
_Mel Brooks_
Evidence mel brooks is ai generated.😅
3 of my favorite people....🙌🙌🙌
Andy Richter ... sometimes he's actually good
97 years old now as of today loved him in Spaceballs and Blazing Saddles
I think Mel looks great in his 90s
Imagine getting a handshake from Mel Brooks for a joke you made
I love this show so much 😊
HES STILL ALIVE PEOPLE.
He has six fingers on one hand! I never noticed that before! Lol. Very funny Mel!
Every time they post an interview clip I immediately think someone has died.
Dude is 96 years young.. I can just dream that my head is as sharp and fast as his is. Faster talker than 90% of these cromozome Xyz, millenials etc.
So in 50 years time there are gonna be urban legends about this I'm sure. This clip will vanish but people will talk about Mel Brooks's 6th finger I'm sure.
We all need a Spaceballs 2
This man is the same exact person he was all those years ago! Really stayed true to himself
Too bad he sold his name to SNL and they made History of the World part II, I swear like only 8 percent of the jokes are his, the rest is SNL garbage.
the fact that mel brooks is OLDER than joe biden and is still just as cognizant as he was in his youth is INSANE
Mel is the greatest. I never knew he had six fingers on his left hand.
"Somebody is looking for you"
So he's a nephilem.
Amazing that this was 11 years ago.
Oh, I thought it was real... Some people actually grow a sixth finger, but it's oftej just cut of at birth
It’s good it’s not on his right hand otherwise inigo montoya will be looking for him. 😂😂😂😂
“Now you don’t have to pay off your mafia loans”…. God Damn.
Wait, so Mel Brooks wrote the journals?! 🤣 He's really one of the funniest people of our time, no question, no argument about it. We love you, Mel! So happy he's still going at 96! :)
So it was Mel Brooks that killed Inigo Montoya's father?!?!??? _(mind blown)_ 😱😱😱😱😱
When was thia?????????
These young kids had know idea about the presence of being in the presence of a EXTREMELY funny WRITTER, DIRECTOR, PRODUCER, ACTOR and GENIUS! My INSPERATION Mr. M Brooks xoxo
If Mel gives you the middle finger.
....RUN
I unironically thought Mel just had an extra finger, since I'd never seen him on camera until now... lol. One of my coworkers has an extra thumb, so I didn't think it was a meme or that unbelievable.
Never in a million years could I have predicted what that prank was going to be.
I'm going to miss Mel Brooks when he's gone =)
Video from 2014.
Thumbnail picture completely ruins the joke
The way he jumps up in the beginning makes you think he will easily reach 110. I know 30 year olds with less energy than him, even when drunk
he's ok!
I was freaking out lmao 🤣 I had to check google
History of the World Part II is out now. They're just doing their own viral version of promotion for it.
Literally I googled Mel brooks has 6 fingers on one hand just before he said it was fake,the joke is he wanted people to do what I just did,he is a master at comedy,kind of like history of the world part one,makes you think there is a part two lol
Mel Brooks told a joke right behind me one time! But I was paying too close attention to my tour guide at the time to notice he was even there. 😭 (My friend told me about it after the fact.) Why did I choose that moment to have an attention span!?
I have Disney+, HBO and Netflix and there is nothing (in my region) from Mel Brooks! Such a huge miss!
We are so unbelievably Lucky to share the earth with a living happy healthy mel brooks nearing 100 years old and still sharp as a tack.
Mel must be 85 in this.
"Oooper doooper."
its good to be the king
Mel out here being the bane of Inigo Montoya’s existence
2:57 Gene Wilder? I'm from Des Moines..Go Hawks! Awesome.
Hello boys have a good nights rest I missed you
Mel is the best ! The Cary Grant story is classic.
Forever a National Treasure!!! (Conan's cool too...)
I love Andy Richter!
Please tell him that!
Oh, and you can greet Conan too.
Great to see Mel Brooks still had his comic energy at 88 years old. Wishing many more years to him!
Mel was 84 years old in this. incredible stamina for his age.
Nobody tell Inigo Montoya about this.
Mel Brooks is so awesome!
Must be the rarest handprint on the floor.
I watched the show and loved it! So happy he got Hitler on ice in there! XD
They could just plaster over it but it's funny as hell!
Conan there's a young lady on tiktok who has a player piano.
Looks like Bogart in Casablanca.
"How does he do such great stunts, with such little feet?"
Did a quick search for collaborations on IMDb and it seems like Vivian Blaine was in a segment of an episode of "Your show of shows" which Mel Brooks was a writer on.
I wonder if anything happened during the filming of that episode or if they had any other bad encounter that made Mel do that Chinese theater joke on Blaine. Even though, he ain't wrong. I never heard of Vivian Blaine until today ;)
He actually admired her since Guys and Dolls is one of his favorite musicals.
lol what a guy
They dont make them like they used to.
You don't know where that thing's been....
How the hell did it take this long to put Mel at the theater?
Mel Brooks 96 and he still in great shape
mel brooks is the GOAT of comedy!
Oh he is really good still XS
Wow if he's in his 90s in this, hes in great shape
Long live Mel Brooks!!!
I think Conan noticed at 0:53
So simple, yet so brilliant 😂😂😂
