      Oh, Jerry could DANCE! You have to know what you're doing to dance well, dance "funny," and also do the physical comedy that he did. If you want to see something, look for some of his tap dancing; he was GOOD.

      I just googled Jerry Lewis breakdancing after watching a video of him "boxing" with a 50 Cent re-dub, and wondered if he'd ever tried it.
      I'm sure if he put time into it, he probably could have blown everybody's minds, but he was busy. He had funds to raise.
      I don't think it would have been too much of a stretch.

    The other thing was about this, it was great to see everybody came together to help and donated money. Something like this should had continued on television, if I knew what I was doing, I would have gotten in touch with whoever was in charge and take over.
    There's people out there who need the extra help and there's people who can't afford the help that Jerry did. I am hoping one day this does start up again and come back on television

    They taught him. He was always one of my favorite comedians?
