If I could go back in time. I would go here and just take that tie and murder it I mean just murder the shit outta that tie fuuuuuucccccckkkkkkk that tie.
Leno was at the hospital (When Rodney was dying) and put his finger in Rodney's hand. He said "Rodney if you can hear me squeeze my finger" Rodney squeezed it. Then Leno said "Rodney, that wasn't my finger" and he said Rodney chuckled.
Very well put. I just finished Rodney's autobiography, terrific book. His headstone reads " There Goes the Neighborhood " . Funny even after death. Thanks for the comment.
I heard that from Henny Youngman. I did that bit literally just today for a friend who grew up in Toronto with an alcoholic father. He's 58 now so we can joke about it.
I was very fortunate to have metRodney face to face. It as spring of 1990 I estimated looking back my friend Rob decided to get married again .being the best man at his first wedding and a good friend I was nominated. It was a long day me being a business owner and him managing a super market we had only one weekday to acomplisf /his wedding .

I'm a 25y from Belgium in Europe and hate those wannabe comedians of today. I love watching UA-cam videos of Rodney and Don Rickles. I wish I was born in the 60's or something to have witnessed these legends in the flesh. Carson, Dangerfield, Martin, Rickles, Sinatra,... God bless UA-cam!!
One of the true kings of comedy, I may be falsely attributing this, but Rodney always struck me as a good soul with a genuinely kind heart and he seemed ageless in the way that he would appeal greatly to kids and younger people which really came to the fore in Back to School. They don't make them like him anymore, Chris Farley was the last comedian to have a similar hilarious, good natured but vulnerable quality about him.
Azure .....Dangerfield had a very, very sad upbringing. Life kicked him in the balls over and over. Only two good things every happened to him.....when he finally hit the "big time" and his second wife....who is a gem.
I watched his interview on howard stern show, it was almost too sad to watch.. He said mom was cold hearted bitch, and never gotten close to his kids much either.. Felt really bad for him
Well after watching all his shows you get to hearing the 1000 jokes over and over. Thats every comedian. They travel from show to show using the exact same act and jokes.
@victorespino5650 What's your point? They put together an act, book venues in which to perform, then go on tour and entertain audiences. After the last venue they go home, put together new material, and book another tour. It's the same as a rock band., only they fly solo and entertain with comedy instead of music.
I don't think there actually is an audience. I get no respect. No respect. I come on to do a stand up show for Dave and his crowd. When I get there, there's no crowd. It's only Dave. No respect I get no respect. Even in old age I get no respect.
Such an original, I don't think anybody will come close to what he did. The jokes, his character, his golden hook "get no respect", his mannerisms. Fucking genius.
DangerfieId caIIed the shots on Carson too, which was aIways unIikeIy for any comedian to initiate. Carson was reaIIy tough on the comedy acts, DangerfieId aIways addressed the crowd after his Iast bit, then waIked right up to Carson shook his hand and sat doen. There were times when Carson had to 'shoo' the guests sitting to move a seat down.
Back when late night TV was worth watching. Two great comedians just having fun entertaining people, not preaching at them. Haven't watched any of it since Leno retired.
one of the G.O.A.Ts when it comes to comedians and the funniest when it comes to one liners and originallity dude had it like no other so thumbs up and great upload
I really like him. I think it's cool how he's definitely famous enough that he could have just sat down and talked to Leno, but he still chose to perform a set. A lot of comedians from his era I don't really get, but I find him hilarious.
I saw George Carlin live twice. I will always regret never having seen Rodney Dangerfield live. This is what happens, apparently, as we get older. Thankfully, there is always Caddyshack!
In 2001, Dangerfield had a mild heart attack while backstage at the Tonight Show. During Dangerfield's hospital stay, the staff were reportedly upset that he smoked marijuana in his room.
Watch his last interview on the Howard Stern show...he talks about "going back for a second surgery on his heart to repair a leaking valve".....so sad. Comedians come and go but Rodney left a huge void no one could fill
Rodney was literally having a heart attack and still managed to finish the joke and tell Eubanks to start playing some music so he could leave gracefully. That's a real pro, a class act.
Many, comedians are often born from depression though difficult times. HOW RODNEY SURVIVED IS BY TELLING HIS STORY THOUGH THOSE ONE LINERS! Interesting -showing the pic of his dad. THE PARENT who “gave him that “I GOT NO RESPECT” theme. When Rodney acknowledged it ; it seemed as if he was trying to reconcile a lifetime of abuse. HIS MOTHER ALSO WAS AN ACCOMPLICE. This iconic gem continued to entertain us, instead of copping-out!!! You go Rodney! God will give u all the love that you need.
"Id like you and the doctor to have lunch with me!" Possibly the funniest joke ever written! Cried laughing for 15 mins listening to it over and over again.
What's very difficult and a huge reminder of how short our lives truly are is I just watched a man age 37 years in 20 minutes..? I watched him on the Tonight Show in 1974 then 1980 and here... Wow! What's going on here!?
Totally random comment but this interview was a month before 9/11. Looking at this video puts it in perspective we had no idea that or way of living would change for ever a month later.
It's now back to the same care Free cntry as it was before. Being steered that way by the lieing liberal news. Thank God we have orange one as president.
He's literally having a stroke and still killing it. He's loosening his tie for real for the last time. Jay Leno saw what was happening and called the paramedics. I can't wait to meet you in Paradise Rodney! We are all going to have a great time. We miss you brother.
I don’t think Rodney ever too public credit but he was instrumental in giving himself to younger comedians and helping them become stars. Selfless and hilarious. R.I.P. Rodney
I have to wonder was Jay must be thinking, seeing that he has to be an engaging TV host and cracking at Rodney's jokes while the whole time knowing something is medically wrong with his friend
what an absolute legend. the entire interview sitting with leno was dangerfield pretty much doing his standup. leno didnt say a word, he interviewed himself. this also might be the only interview ive ever seen on a talk show where the interviewee decided it was over and cued the band to play and left on his own accord, not because the talk show host decided it was getting stale or needed to go to a commercial break. awesome bit.
Man I love my George Carlin but its nice to have Rodney make me laugh for over 30 years with out the bad words,yeah I forget how long he been doin this he would never been able to cuss like we do these days it a shame ,but thanks for the video...carson and jay my favorite to and jay he s super cool because a bike and a car guy,like a lot of us in the USA...thanks for the laughs.....I needed that...life sucks most of the time then u come home laugh a little and realize it ain't that bad.
80 years later and that tie still wasn't loosened.
If I could go back in time. I would go here and just take that tie and murder it I mean just murder the shit outta that tie fuuuuuucccccckkkkkkk that tie.
I image he was getting pretty warm. He was literally having a heart attack in this video.
@@standpipe negative. it was months later..
😉
One of the greatest of the "one liners". Rest in peace Rodney!
Actually, most likely the best in history.
Robert Norman Cloud he had a mild heart attack after this show backstage
umm no
G.O.A.T.
You can tell that Jay Leno clearly loves having him on the show and his laugh looks very genuine. What a job!
Dangerfield discovered Leno and gave him his big break as many other comedians
Leno was at the hospital (When Rodney was dying) and put his finger in Rodney's hand. He said "Rodney if you can hear me squeeze my finger" Rodney squeezed it. Then Leno said "Rodney, that wasn't my finger" and he said Rodney chuckled.
It's fun to notice that Jay handles Rodney the same as Johnny Carson did ...... just let him go and enjoy it.
What else can could he do? You don't stand in the way of a freight train like Dangerfield.
Very well put. I just finished Rodney's autobiography, terrific book. His headstone reads " There Goes the Neighborhood " . Funny even after death. Thanks for the comment.
Johnny is where Jay learned how ...
UncleMike43
I agree. And that's brilliant
"My old man was a drunk, big drunk, he saw a sign 'Drink Canada Dry'... he went up there!
HeRacesTheSun LMFAO never gets old
Thats nothing!...The first time I quit drinking, Budweiser had to lay the night shift off!!😃
@@zolnsalt the first? Lol
I heard that from Henny Youngman. I did that bit literally just today for a friend who grew up in Toronto with an alcoholic father. He's 58 now so we can joke about it.
My favorite Dangerfield joke.
The canada dry joke might be one of the cleverest jokes ive ever heard 😂
Spot on
Riiight?
I thought that joke was clever too. Notice how Rodney gives us a moment to get that joke and he smiles as if he likes that one too.

Yes it was kind of a clever joke
I just love this kind of humor... He was the best!!!
I'm a 25y from Belgium in Europe and hate those wannabe comedians of today. I love watching UA-cam videos of Rodney and Don Rickles. I wish I was born in the 60's or something to have witnessed these legends in the flesh. Carson, Dangerfield, Martin, Rickles, Sinatra,... God bless UA-cam!!
Dangerfield was so funny, he'd bring tears to my eyes - he still does. No one played that Sad-Sack demeanor more brilliantly than him !
Poor guy was literally having a heart attack and still managed to get through the segment. Rodney's a legend.
That was during an appearance 3 months later - Nov. 22, 2001. It was also Rodney's 80th birthday.
@@MooPotPie so he wasn’t having a heart attack here? It seemed like he might have slipped up a bit on this. Poor guy, always so funny.
@@sean2me one was a mini stroke one was heart attack I'm the same as you the guys so professional it's hard to tell
Jane Leno called him an ambulance before Rodney started his gig.
Stroke actually!
Rest in peace big Rodney. You made me laugh and you still do.
There is no oldschool comedians like you anymore.
ds He was the best!!!!!
ds You're absolutely correct! Rodney was the man!
Rodney Dangerfield has been named the 7th greatest standup comedian of all time. But he's my favorite comedian ever! I love Rodney Dangerfield!
What a joke, seventh!!!!!
Don rickles is still around.
Rodney would've been 101 years old today. Rest in Peace legend
🕯
Absolutely the best . Great material and always the best delivery . One of a kind .
*_"My old man was a big drunk, he saw a sign drink Canada Dry, so he went up there"_* Classic Rodney.
What a performer…Only man in comedy that can be dying on stage and still get laughs at the same time
One of the true kings of comedy, I may be falsely attributing this, but Rodney always struck me as a good soul with a genuinely kind heart and he seemed ageless in the way that he would appeal greatly to kids and younger people which really came to the fore in Back to School.

Farley was not in the same tier as Rodney, they both rest in peace
@victorespino5650
What's your point? They put together an act, book venues in which to perform, then go on tour and entertain audiences.
After the last venue they go home, put together new material, and book another tour.
It's the same as a rock band., only they fly solo and entertain with comedy instead of music.
Somebody needed to tell this audience 'these are known as jokes."
I don't think there actually is an audience. I get no respect. No respect. I come on to do a stand up show for Dave and his crowd. When I get there, there's no crowd. It's only Dave. No respect I get no respect. Even in old age I get no respect.
Keith Richard bi
Tom Armbruster I guess it wasn't really a "Great Crowd"
Tom Armbruster seriously. WTH
Tom Armbruster glad u said that. He’s about as funny as death.
I LOVED him in Easy Money!!
Boy my mother in law. For years I wouldn't kiss her face, I ended up kissing her ass!!
It's wedged up against the toilet.........(the wedding cake scene)!! haha.. remember?
Jimbo j lol...i dropped my joint, where's my joint, WHOA NICKY LOOK OUT!!! SPLAT!!! LOL
I could listed to him all day and not get bored
“Boy, I tell ya, I know I drink too much. Yeah, my doctor asked for a urine sample, there was an olive in it!”. One of my favourites!
I love to see Jay Leno's reaction to Rodney's jokes;the way he laughs.
Rodney always kills it. One of the all time greats.
Hands down, the very best comedian EVER!
My favorite stand up comedian evah!
I love it when Rodney's hosts laugh as much as the audience it goes to show what a great comedian he always is.
i miss Rodney Dangerfield
Rodney is the kinda guy to have at your social partys. R.I.P Rodney.
No Way!! Rodney is funny and great company at any Gala. He could bring clever consultant humor to a funeral. And that's for true.
makes me wanna watch lady bugs, back to school and caddyshack...
And Rover Dangerfield
Please don’t forget Easy Money
I know how to make a girl say yes...
I ask her "Am I bothering you?"
Lol
TRUE LEGEND.....Can never be replaced. Sure do miss you Rodney.....
I cannot stress how so very funny this man was!
forgets the setup, resets, restarts, punchline, kills... the legend.
He didn't forget anything he was in the middle of having a heart attack
Such an original, I don't think anybody will come close to what he did. The jokes, his character, his golden hook "get no respect", his mannerisms. Fucking genius.
Rodney should be called the king of comedy
What a guy. His one liners are hilarious. We miss you Rodney
Gone but not forgotten, late but great! 👍
First time I've seen a guest call the end of the interview, well done.
DangerfieId caIIed the shots on Carson too, which was aIways unIikeIy for any comedian to initiate. Carson was reaIIy tough on the comedy acts, DangerfieId aIways addressed the crowd after his Iast bit, then waIked right up to Carson shook his hand and sat doen. There were times when Carson had to 'shoo' the guests sitting to move a seat down.
A talk show hosts dream.
All you have to say is "oh yeah?" , "Oh really" and just let him go on and on hahaha.
Greatest Comedian ever.
His delivery and timing are amazing.
One of a kind comedian! Can't be forgotten!
"This morning i had a drug test, i got lucky, it was good pot".
Still had it even in these later years 🤣🤣💕
Rodney was the king of comedy.
A legend.
He was indeed'no other comadians are even close to him'he was so profesional.
A true legend and the G.O.A.T!
"My gay brother went to England last summer. Boy was he upset when he found out Big Ben was just a clock"
81 and he is still killing it
Back when late night TV was worth watching. Two great comedians just having fun entertaining people, not preaching at them. Haven't watched any of it since Leno retired.
Rodney Dangerfield will always get my respect LOL Absolute Comedy genius hope you're doing well and heaven buddy
One of the funniest men of our time.
You may have never spoken more truer words. An absolute legend in my opinion.
World class comediant. I´m a huge fan.
It's stand up AND sit down. Love it
one of the G.O.A.Ts when it comes to comedians and the funniest when it comes to one liners and originallity dude had it like no other so thumbs up and great upload
One of the very best, hilarious talented man!
I really like him. I think it's cool how he's definitely famous enough that he could have just sat down and talked to Leno, but he still chose to perform a set. A lot of comedians from his era I don't really get, but I find him hilarious.
My wife and I were happy for twenty years. Then we met.
Even a month before the worst day in American history and three years before his passing he was still funny as hell.
😅
I saw George Carlin live twice. I will always regret never having seen Rodney Dangerfield live. This is what happens, apparently, as we get older. Thankfully, there is always Caddyshack!
RIP Rodney Dangerfield. We all still miss you.
In 2001, Dangerfield had a mild heart attack while backstage at the Tonight Show. During Dangerfield's hospital stay, the staff were reportedly upset that he smoked marijuana in his room.
Fuck em all phil.legends are allowed to break the rules.
Just like Johnny Jay appreciates Rodney's genius.
the funniest man that ever lived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
100%
"I'd like you and the doctor to have lunch with me"
I seriously lost it at that part!
Miss this guy. He passed away during surgery shortly after this appearance
2004. not 2001
No but he had a mild heart attack backstage that night in 2001.
HE DIED 2004 OCTOBER,,,,,,,,HE WAS IN A COMA
Watch his last interview on the Howard Stern show...he talks about "going back for a second surgery on his heart to repair a leaking valve".....so sad. Comedians come and go but Rodney left a huge void no one could fill
true kenny, but the legacy he left behind is legendary. eternal rodney!
Literally having a heart attack and is like "yeah, nah, ill finish my set"
Greatest of all time!!
Two comedians i wish i could of seen, Rodney Dangerfield and Richard Pryor,
Amazing stuff! One of the greats of comedy.
Rodney was literally having a heart attack and still managed to finish the joke and tell Eubanks to start playing some music so he could leave gracefully. That's a real pro, a class act.
He was having a steok
@@engineeringreality7878 lol i think your having stroke
He was awesome in Caddyshack; one of the rare movies I never tire of watching.
"Pick up that blood."
Many, comedians are often born from depression though difficult times.
HOW RODNEY SURVIVED IS BY TELLING HIS STORY THOUGH THOSE ONE LINERS!
Interesting -showing the pic of his dad. THE PARENT who “gave him that “I GOT NO RESPECT” theme.
When Rodney acknowledged it ;
it seemed as if he was trying to reconcile a lifetime of abuse.
HIS MOTHER ALSO WAS AN ACCOMPLICE.
This iconic gem continued to entertain us, instead of copping-out!!!
You go Rodney!
God will give u all the love that you need.
I love this guy. His wit is unbeatable.
"Id like you and the doctor to have lunch with me!" Possibly the funniest joke ever written! Cried laughing for 15 mins listening to it over and over again.
Yes one of the best jokes ever about having lunch with doctor
Yeh. It took me a minute to get it. I'm 64 and I really appreciate his humor at age 80. JUST INCREDIBLE. ty
"I was a ugly baby. When I was born the doctor slapped my mother".
It's funny how a then 80 year old man (Rodney) can have a then 18 year old kid (me) laughing so hard.
Oh no, money I couldn't take. I don't want any money. Thanks for all the belly laughs. Loved this man.
What's very difficult and a huge reminder of how short our lives truly are is I just watched a man age 37 years in 20 minutes..? I watched him on the Tonight Show in 1974 then 1980 and here... Wow! What's going on here!?
Always makes me laugh, and at least Jay laughs at the actual jokes as opposed to Fallon who can't seem to figure out how jokes work.
LEGEND ❤❤❤❤❤
What a man...telling the audience to give him an ovation. Only a legend can demand something from an audience and not sound pretentious
Rodney, what a funny guy! Its just one joke after another! Love that guy!
Totally random comment but this interview was a month before 9/11. Looking at this video puts it in perspective we had no idea that or way of living would change for ever a month later.
Thi k HW knew
I had the same thought when I saw the date.
It's now back to the same care Free cntry as it was before. Being steered that way by the lieing liberal news. Thank God we have orange one as president.
Can't stop thinking of Robin Williams impersonation of him in Aladdin.
Rip Rodney thank you for all the laughs 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Jay walks him off the stage, God Bless Rodney
Having a stroke and still finished his set. True professional. R.I.P. legend.
"My wife is a terrible cook. Yesterday she made mousse....and an antler got stuck in my throat." Priceless!
frisco21 my wife is a horrible cook, yesterday I saw a cockroach sucking on a Tums.

his face at the end said it all. looked like he had enough of the crowd after the last joke and wanted to leave. his jokes are grand.
He was having a heart attack
He's literally having a stroke and still killing it. He's loosening his tie for real for the last time. Jay Leno saw what was happening and called the paramedics. I can't wait to meet you in Paradise Rodney! We are all going to have a great time. We miss you brother.
80 years old, unbelievable
Man, he's eighty years old here and sharp as a tack! :)
What a crowd, what a crowd... he is missed. The GOAT.
The legend. Always had my respect👌
I once saw a biography show about the life of Rodney Dangerfield.
Rodney Dangerfield was a very good person, better than most of us.
haha, oh man.. all this does is remind me how I miss Rodney. God bless and thanks for ALL the laughs.
Miss you Rodney. You will always be one of the best comedians ever....
I don’t think Rodney ever too public credit but he was instrumental in giving himself to younger comedians and helping them become stars. Selfless and hilarious. R.I.P. Rodney
How many of you are here after reading Rodney had a stroke on Leno?
I have to wonder was Jay must be thinking, seeing that he has to be an engaging TV host and cracking at Rodney's jokes while the whole time knowing something is medically wrong with his friend
after reading that i typed "rod" into Google and it suggested "rodney daingerfield had a mini-stroke on Jay Leno"
R V this guy 👐🏼

what an absolute legend. the entire interview sitting with leno was dangerfield pretty much doing his standup. leno didnt say a word, he interviewed himself. this also might be the only interview ive ever seen on a talk show where the interviewee decided it was over and cued the band to play and left on his own accord, not because the talk show host decided it was getting stale or needed to go to a commercial break. awesome bit.
Wow. Extremely cleaver. The'll never be another like him. R.I.P to the Legend
Man I love my George Carlin but its nice to have Rodney make me laugh for over 30 years with out the bad words,yeah I forget how long he been doin this he would never been able to cuss like we do these days it a shame ,but thanks for the video...carson and jay my favorite to and jay he s super cool because a bike and a car guy,like a lot of us in the USA...thanks for the laughs.....I needed that...life sucks most of the time then u come home laugh a little and realize it ain't that bad.
