I loved him in the 1960s. I've seen his routines over and over again, I could do them myself. He still makes my jaw ache laughing. A true genius of laughter. Sadly missed. RIP Tommy.
I grew up watching Tommy on a black & white TV. So brilliant. I still laugh & cry. A terrible loss. Thank you Tommy I have a Dalmatian puppy that is a total idiot. I called him Sarge. I'm thinking I should have call him Tommy for the mischief he gets up to. I'm so fortunate to have grown up watching Tommy Cooper
Damn, the dude was wacky as all get out but he could make people laugh. He was built from ground up for comedy. Thanks for the video my friend, good stuff !👍 👍
Somebody tell me is this the Tommy Cooper used to make laugh silly when I was at the Fire Services Technical College in 1973/4?.Hi Gareth Owen and Tom Jackson in Bristol Uk.
You knew him, thats brilliant i wish id been born back then instead of the late 80s, 60s 70s 80s 90s were just something else, im really not enjoying this current millennium
Incredible stamp-up comedian who left us with a bad taste in our mouths when he left our lives on a stage where he had compulsions, I think, and people laughed because they believed he was part of the show because he played a medium. And as you know, sometimes mediums act as if they were having compulsions. Unfortunately, that moment was recorded and was on UA-cam for many years until they censored it.
My mother and aunt were in the audience the night he died on stage my mum was a doctor and she actually went to help when the saint John's ambulance asked for help
I was very surprised to hear, he sadly had a drink problem. Where he was a good magician and comedian, for me, was when he showed how a trick was fake and pretended to say a magic word. Also his one man or other plays he wrote. He died a sad professional death, collapsing on stage.
Ive seen it, everyone kept laughing cause they thought it was part of his act but it was very quick RIP Tommy Cooper he was still hugely popular on the telly when i was young even though he died 2 years before i was born, i remember watching him with my late grandparents, allo allo aswell and grandma would watch anything with Cilla Black, i would go back if i could wouldnt even think twice about it not enjoying this millenium👎 😉😅
That is correct he died on stage at Her Majesty’s theatre live on ITV in front of millions. He collapsed and died and everyone thought it was part of the act & were laughing. He then fell backwards through the curtain & ITV then went to commercial break. When they came Les Dennis & his partner did their routine with curtains closed behind them with Tommy lying there being attended.
I used to be rolling round 'Front Room' holding my stomach! Mark Brothers, Pythons etc. More. My parents did'nt get it, more I laughed. Good medicine laughing!

There will never be anyone greater than Mr Tommy Cooper.
My comedy hero as a child. Was only 13 when he passed. Shame I didn't see more of him! True legend

Only tommy cooper could come on stage and not have to say a word and have the audience in stitches pure class tommy
One of the greatest comedians ever
Love the way he just chucks stuff on the floor 😂
Love that laugh!!!❤❤❤❤❤
I've seen this video I don't know how many times and I laugh my head off every time. Tommy was a Master of comedy. He's still fabulous in 2024.
Tommy Cooper was the best . Fabulous .
As I said in the past all Tommy had to do was walk on stage that was enough 😂
No other comedian in history could do this routine and get the laughs Tommy got
Greatest English philosopher
Good old Tommy; always my favourite as a kid. And that malicious grin - he looked like the sort. to send round to break fingers haha.
He was at the peak of his powers when he made these shows for Thames Television in the 1970's
Intellect goes hand in hand with humour

He was just funny. He did what it said on the tin.
,Tommy Cooper genius.
There are no words!
Tommy 😆❣️
LOVED HIM 😂
Just like that 😅
Tommy cooper used to be brilliant, they don't make them like that anymore.
Thanks for putting me on to Tommy Cooper. We don't see him on this side of the Pond. BTW I'm 71 and I don't agree with everything you say but....
Died with 12 million people laughing at him as he has a heart attack.

NIce to hear Reg Dixon getting an airing at 13:22!

Convulsions you mean? And you can find his death on many channels including a doco on him as well.
Doctor it hurts when I do that.Well don’t do it then
😂😂😂😂😂😊
And to think, every single motion was scripted and thought out. If he looked left 2 seconds afvter failing a trick, it was scripted. Man was a genius
Tommy was in the Irish Guards before giving way to his comedic career... imagine doing tricks in front of the enemy!!!!?
BBH : British Burlesque Humour from the 70's. Tommy was great as a 1-man show. A little clumsy and flat in situation comedy with other actors, though.
My mother and aunt were in the audience the night he died on stage my mum was a doctor and she actually went to help when the saint John's ambulance asked for help
How marvellous sad
Back in the day when you had to have talent to get on the stage
i dont see any talent
sad the audience didn't realize he had a heart attack and passed.

Many would say he died doing what he loved and that’s better than dying lonely and washed up.

I was told that he died while on stage?

Glad I was around when England had the best comedians. England soon will have no White comedians.
CRAP
Stunningly unfunny…
You must be German.
He sounds ill

It was very funny in the 1970s. And I certainly still got a few giggles now in 2024.
Tommy pooper, more like…
He really plumbed a new level of unfunny. Awful then. Awful now.,
I suppose you find Miranda funny instead. Or are you a sad Beyonce fan?
@@Crustywasp What the hell does Beyonce have to do with it?
@@FrankNFurter1000she stayed married to Jay Z
@@michaeljames87 Still a bit lost as to the present context of finding Tommy Cooper funny.
Relax kid you will understand it one day. Hope it's not too long.
never liked him, never thought he was funny...
There's always one eh ?
So why are you here?
Yeah....he was loved by 99%
Why the need to comment ?
