He truly has a way with words. There's a warmth in his delivery that carries a soothing effect. The first time I watched 700 sundays I saw Billy Crystal in a whole new light.
I was an extra in the movie 'Good Morning Vietnam'! I was living in Phuket Thailand where the movie was shot! I was in one of the army trucks in a traffic hold up'! Robin Williams just 'adlibbed' that scene I am sure ! Great guy, mixed with all the extra's --no exclusivity --a real down to earth guy! I'm happy to have briefly met him!
Thanks Billy, those are beautiful words for Robin. I wish I had known him. Rest in peace Robin and thank you for all the laughs and memories. You’ll always be number one and the king of comedy in my books.
RIP Robin i still love watching you alive, putting a smile on our faces, warming our hearts and you never disapointed anyone. I just wish we could have done the same for you.
When I heard Robin had passed.. My heart broke as if he was a relative. Like I knew him all of my life. He had been there my entire childhood… Might as well call him “Uncle Robin”. He will be greatly missed. His genius could never be replicated in a billion years. He truly was one of a kind. He won the hearts of the world… and with that gift he also broke hearts of the world. Rest in peace the one and only Robin Williams. You are greatly missed.
Twice we attended Sting concerts with seats fifth row center and both times Robin Williams and Billy Crystal sat directly in front of us. They were very good friends and both were kind and genuine. The loss of Williams is a sad one and I can only imagine that his closest friends and family are carrying the weight of that loss even now. This was a lovely tribute. 💙
Saw Sting in Reno, NV at the Hilton. Robin and Billy were there. They got on stage, and it took us a few minutes to figure out who they were. We were in the far back. Great concert.
They say laughter is the best medicine. Just wish the laughter this man made / gave us helped him. The man will always be the best. No ands ifs or buts.
Robin attended Redwood High School; Larkspur, CA. I attended that same school from 1971 to 1973! Kevin Robinson (my pal) was a friend of Robin. I never met Robin -- but the guy's memory lives on. We are proud Marin County, CA residents. Love and Peace, Cav at the Fairfax library! *
Crystal can be such a masterful wordsmith of threading beautiful ideas into mini-narratives. So touching and funny to hear his personable stories here.
Beautifully said. I found this (from a zillion years ago .. don’t ask me how) and have been reading incredible stuff about incredible people. What a morning.. With love.. Liz Davies from Aus
Thank you Billy for your eulogy on your departed close friend, Robin. You knew him best. Your words brought tears to my eyes. I imagine you had to rehearse this repeatedly so you wouldn't break down as well. God be with you Robin, you left a massive hole in our collective hearts. If we only could have talked you out it first and gotten you help you needed.
Billy Crystal has delivered some great Eulogy's, I hope that when his time comes he has someone do him as great a justice as he has done for his fallen friends.
More you watch of Robin Williams, you will never stop smiling he brought happiness in the millions of fans' lives across the clobe. He was truly amazing. I recently watched Hooked that film to me t saw something perhaps everyone else saw he was Peter Pan of comedy, a man with a view on life like a child he saw things through a child's eyes, though his comedy was adult some of time it didn't mean we aren't all a bit child ourselves somehow, and Robin showed us humanity in his many film roles like a robot becoming human and a teacher teaching about life in poetry. And many more. His voice and body language saw us as funny he was, but even a clown cries sometimes, but he never showed it. Funny bones, he had them, he was electice. God gave him the gift of jokes and many other things. I am sure his keeping them smiling up there with joy and laughter and possibly having conversations with you know who Bob Hope is laughing with him , telling him that's one my jokes, then they start laughing. Missed but not forgotten Robin Williams, you stand a beside the greats in comedy. Thanks, Mork, and signing off, Nannoo, Nannoo!
I just wish he had of reached out too someone for help. so sad he's gone breaks do many miss him. I know he ran sliding into heaven "yelling iam here!!!!"
I watched Super/Man - The Christopher Reeve Story Robin Williams was an absolute Godsend to Chris after his accident. Both he and Marsha did amazing things behind the scenes for him and Dana Reeve.
No celebrity death has ever hit me that hard. At the time I was in the throws of my own depression. I thought "Jesus, if Robin Williams can't make it what chance do I have?" Fortunately I got through it, and I'm ok today. But my god, I felt like I lost a close friend that day.
Don't know the man. But touched all of our lives with his brilliance. Makes me miss him a great deal today. We need laughter like that today. Not harshness.
Will it be 6 years now since this wonderful soul left us. As I said before in a way I'm glad he is gone & didn't suffer to much it would of been devastating to watch his wonderful mind sink into dementia !! And I'm glad he isn't around to see how cold , scared & sick the world has become it would of been to much for his beautiful to handle.
He already was sinking into dementia. He’d been diagnosed with Parkinson’s, but *knew* something else was going on. He wasn’t ’himself’ and *knew* he wasn’t himself. As much as i think this is all a very bad dream, i give him ‘props’ for controlling how he died rather than allowing how he died to control his life.
I saw him when he came to visit us in a deployed area. Part of my job was doing the sound for events and he was one of them. The one thing the sound guy never does is be center aisle because you never want to be seen. Since the cords we had were not long enough for me to be in the back of the audience, thats where i was. He gets on stage, the crowd is cheering and he gets going into his act. Within 2 minutes he looks directly at me and says, "Youre the sound guy who everyone will blame if they cant hear me". I said yes sir and without missing a beat i turned up the gain on his input for the microphone and a high pitch squeel went over the speakers. Everyone laughed and he looked back at me, smiled and gace me a thumbs up. RIP Robin. Depression is hard thing to cope with. I know i have it too. You have no idea the impact you had on so many lives.
I just watched the Christopher Reeve documentary on HBO and Robin is mentioned numerous times. He was a very close friend and supported him unconditionally after his accident. Glenn Close goes so far as to say she thinks if Reeve was still alive Robin would be too. I wish that were the case.
He truly has a way with words. There's a warmth in his delivery that carries a soothing effect. The first time I watched 700 sundays I saw Billy Crystal in a whole new light.
yes, now i want to go watch "When Harry met Sally" again!
I read the book. ❤
The World is a sadder place without Robin Williams...God Bless you

I felt that same way when John Candy passed 20 1/2 years earlier.
Exactly how I felt.
"Uncle Wobin"
Crystal said it was one of the hardest things he ever had to do. You can see him taking a deep breath to compose himself right before he speaks.
One of my heros talking about another one of my heros, wish I could have met Robin williams.

Billy shares his heart, great loss and inner pain in this very fine tribute to a rare and remarkable genius.
Crystal can be such a masterful wordsmith of threading beautiful ideas into mini-narratives. So touching and funny to hear his personable stories here.
so well said
We will always miss Robin
Still can not and will not accept the world without Mr. Williams.
There will never be another person like Robin any where.
We only get one and only one.
Be seeing you later Robin.

Thanks for the clip

RIP Robin - Legend - Love you forever.
We stopped by Morks house that day, flowers festooned the fence, fans came from all over Colorado to mourn Robin Williams.
REST WITH ANGELS ROBIN.
I just wish he had of reached out too someone for help. so sad he's gone breaks do many miss him. I know he ran sliding into heaven "yelling iam here!!!!"
So miss him
😢 I still miss Robin.
Beautifully said
I miss him❣️❤️😞
Breaks my heart whenever I see this. RW, what a concept.
Billy Crystal has perfect timing and THE best host of Oscars
I watched Super/Man - The Christopher Reeve Story
Robin Williams was an absolute Godsend to Chris after his accident. Both he and Marsha did amazing things behind the scenes for him and Dana Reeve.
You are right! We all greet each other one day. I miss him and love him.
Goooood Morning, Will Hunting!
we do wish he was still here
My heart still cannot… after all these years 💔😔😞😭😭
Billy Crystal is such an incredible storyteller
Out of every celeb deaths,Robin Williams was the one that hurts the most
No celebrity death has ever hit me that hard. At the time I was in the throws of my own depression. I thought "Jesus, if Robin Williams can't make it what chance do I have?" Fortunately I got through it, and I'm ok today. But my god, I felt like I lost a close friend that day.
Love both.....💚
GOOD MORNING HEAVEN
The mad genius.is now making them laugh in heaven.
I want Billy Crystal to do my eulogy!!
It was a great eulogy, you could go to oposite end of the scale, John Cleese's eulogy of Graeme Chapman was equally good, but very different.
This is good but you should watch the eulogy he did for Muhammed Ali.
Thank you Mr crystal
Don't know the man. But touched all of our lives with his brilliance. Makes me miss him a great deal today. We need laughter like that today. Not harshness.
Comedy hasn’t quite been the same since his passing.
Will it be 6 years now since this wonderful soul left us. As I said before in a way I'm glad he is gone & didn't suffer to much it would of been devastating to watch his wonderful mind sink into dementia !! And I'm glad he isn't around to see how cold , scared & sick the world has become it would of been to much for his beautiful to handle.

I miss Robin Williams. Actually miss him.
Robin was so alive, it's still hard to believe that he's gone.
great speech
Robin Williams will continue to make people laugh long after we're all dead.

You have no idea the impact you had on so many lives.
I miss him very much. Makes me weep when I think of his and our loss .
When Robin Williams won his Oscar you could see Billy crying with joy, he truly loved the guy.
I just watched the Christopher Reeve documentary on HBO and Robin is mentioned numerous times. He was a very close friend and supported him unconditionally after his accident. Glenn Close goes so far as to say she thinks if Reeve was still alive Robin would be too. I wish that were the case.
I miss you my friend , Michael Dec 3, 2024
Billy gives the best eulogies.
"Robin Williams, what a concept." ❤
He was the sharpest, fastest and smartest " smartass" I have ever seen. Whit an humer that only comes around to make us laugh, very rarely.
GOODNESS BLESS YOU BILLY, YES HE WILL BE EXTREMELY MISSED !!!!😢😢😢😮😮😮😊😊😊😊❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Your evil and being sarcastic.
No one misses anyone they simply move on with their own lives as if nothing ever happened. Ur comment leads me to believe u are guilty of something.
@@SleepyPenguin-8ogtroll
Robin was indeed a comic genius ❤️
"Stars belong in the sky"
Robin Was The Greatest.REst in Heavenly Peace
Where is he now ????????????
That must of been so hard for Billy to do without getting choked up 😢
Damn. And Billy, thank you.
Well his final cut was not as i expected
One of a kind....
I sincerely hope, at least one person stood up and said "O CAPTAIN, MY CAPTAIN!"
Oh how I miss “Mork from Ork!
Beautiful thought Billy Crystal: "Robin Williams ... What a concept"
why is there an edit? and is the original available somewhere?
"night clubs.........arenas"
What was cut out?
Comic genius ❤❤
Crystal is such a class act.
