    Richard Kiel was the epitome of a gentle giant, but the nose smashing scene in this movie is hysterically funny!

      I wonder if he ever had treatment for is Acromegaly/Gigantism? Maybe radiation on the tumor. I had neurosurgery, radiation and now chemo every month to hold it in check. It is rare for anyone to live past 50 without treatment.

      Everyone who knew or worked with him always said what a lovely, genuine bloke he was. Whatever he appeared in, he made it better. I watched 'Moonraker' at the cinema when it was released, and everyone cheered when Jaws appeared on screen.

    That's one of my favorite movies specifically because of Kiel's shenanigans! I never fail to laugh myself crazy whenever seeing him get furious at the guard on the opposing team and yell out that he's going to clothesline that S.O.B.. The aftermath where everybody's saying that the guard "broke his f---ing neck!" always makes me howl, too.

    R.I.P Richard Kiel (1939-2014) and George Carlin (1937-2008)
    I miss both Richard Kiel and George Carlin so much and Richard Kiel along with George Carlin are both one of my absolute favorites. Richard Kiel was a great actor in The Longest Yard 1974 with Burt Reynolds and Happy Gilmore with Adam Sandler, he was awesome as Jaws in The Spy Who Loved Me and Moonraker, and Richard Kiel gave a great performance as Sampson in The Longest Yard 1974.
    I also love George Carlin. George Carlin was the most brilliant and best American comedian of all time, Jammin' in New York as well as Back in Town from 1992 to 1996 are both my all time favorite George Carlin specials, and George Carlin was very good as the role of Mr. Conductor on Shining Time Station.

    Ironically, Adam Sandler was in the remake of this film. The former and Kiel were in "Happy Gilmore" together. I wonder why the latter was unavailable for the remake. It would've been nice to see them in another movie together.

      Richard's physical issues kept him from being in films like the new Longest Yard. In Happy Gilmore, there is only one scene where he is shown in full body. He had to have someone to lean on to do the scene.
