That's 94 in fat-as-fuck years though.

@@Th3UprightMan get the fuck out of here 😂😭😂

I’m 38 and I agree

Long live Chris Farley we miss you

Drugs can do a lot of things.

At the time of his death he was 296 pounds.

The actually f@ft is he wasn’t struggling at this time. It was his drug dealing shit ass friend the last fucking woman with him that killed him and should’ve been arrested. He was actually clean right now and doing good.

What's Chevy doing there? 😑

Multiple people on set that night would beg to differ with you@@justi139 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z5uoiJecp9qulZ8.html

He was gone about a month after this show.

​@@justi139blaming the woman? She was a hooker he hired. Grow up dude.

I remembered a video of the CEO of Great Lakes Brewing mentioning that he played rugby with Chris Farley in college.

I first thought he was going to jump onto the table or intentionally trip over it. Very impressive that he cleanly jumped right over!

farley could do a cartwheel kzfaq.info/get/bejne/leBpnseiqd2laGQ.html

i thought the same thing....i definately couldnt do that

He was also able to do perfect backflips

as 23 years is coming up ........Chris died 2 weeks after my 31 bithdasy and 2 weeks after my son was born........

😥

@@BRUTUSPLAC Legends never die!! They are always remembered just like Chris will always be.

That accounts for his whole demeanor here. He could hardly speak, and he looked bloated as hell. The end WAS near...

@@jondunmore4268 he looks horrible

yeah and farley looked bad too.

@@dannydorko7075 He's making a serious point. Come on.

I remember seeing it and just chalking it up to added weight and that terrible haircut from “Beverly Hills Ninja”. Seriously still think he would’ve looked better if they’d cut his hair. I wonder who the hell thought that was working? Slick it back...ANYthing. I think he may have been in the middle of the promotional rounds for that movie and some genius thought his hair should be similar like that makes a difference. Like we WONT know that’s Chris Farley otherwise. Because he was sober filming that movie and he doesn’t look much better.

@Shy Cutie SO sad, gone too soon. Had so many more laughs to give.

Why did they allowed Chris to host knowing he was not well. That is sad.

Another good one is Olivia Wilde’s story which she talked about on Howard stern show

I mean if ur coked up n fat.

Putting Matt Foley on an exercise bike for his sketch probably wasn't the wisest decision either.

You know Walt Disney had an oxygen tank while filming his television series for his last time because he was so out of breath on stage. He needed oxygen between takes.

@@mikemancini313 So did Yul Brenner in The King and I and Raul Julia in Addams Family Values. So sad.

@@trevgreg2 it was like they were trying to kill him

Given the circumstances I have a hard time laughing at this. He was clearly a sick guy at this point. Nothing funny about that.

@ not true. Jesus is the solution.

Nothing anyone can do when a man decides he wants to live fast and die young...that’s a direct quote from Chris Farley

Apparently he had really bad OCD, would like have rituals he'd need to perform. I think Chris was dealing with some kind of mental illness that the 90's (and now) was not prepared to handle

A real support system, rehab, and a diet and workout plan would've been a good enough solution

He was a sponsor, and potential fill-in if Chris couldn't fulfill his duty. Same with Chris Rock. On another note: Tim Meadows needs to host!!

@@cammy85 I totally agree with that! Tim Meadows is hilarious and doesn’t get all the credit he deserves!

@@merrbear5104 he really is outcast. I grew up watching adam sandler and chris rock and farley movies so I would always watch their skits over the years but never tim meadows. First time I really saw tim was in grown ups movies as a small villian side character

He was probably in the neighborhood

Agreed. Chevy Chase is a known first class A hole

Which podcast?

@@dvsdawl it’s been taken down from what I saw. If you google Tim meadows gets emotional over Chris Farley it says the video is private now. I don’t know why but try that man. Good luck hope you find it keep some tissues handy it’s a tear jerker meadows cries like a baby

❤

His brothers said he was sober for a short time

He had it in his head he couldn’t perform without drugs

Sometimes I feel like people have forgotten him. We need to bring him "back"

@@Carrieadams88 Yes memories of those days are golden

I saw that, and it was awesome

Not hard to do when you're 90% cocaine.

Surprisingly athletic

I thought for sure he was going to do the break the table bit!

He was always agile in all his movies for how much of a heavy set he was it was honestly impressive 😂 in Beverly hill ninja he does cartwheels that are actually him its crazy 😂

They did. Jim Breuer talked about this episode and the week leading up to it in his book. Chris was such a mess. So very sad. If only he’d loved himself even a fraction as much as everyone else loved him.

@@kellysquared2 Tina Fey also said that it was one situation in life where she knew this person was going to die at some point soon.

@@trevgreg2 so sad

Everybody knew he was killing himself... and they tried to help him for a decade

Without the drugs it’s likely he would have died within 10 years. End stage cardiac disease.

He was loaded here... it wasn’t withdrawal... Slurred speech and respiratory problems are not opioid withdrawal symptoms... opioid withdrawal is harmless.. like it’s not fun but it’s harmless. Chris is literally dying in this monologue.. He was in heart failure, he could barely breathe.. and he snorted and smoked so much and so often, he was just dying.

Nah I don't think anyone would be moving around like that in opiate withdrawal. Especially not jump over a table.

Chris is jacked to the 9

His vice was coke

@@xanderx8661 He was a heroin addict also, he used everything.

Tim Meadows was the absolute best choice to kind of “chaperone” and flow with Chris instead of just doing the lines and making things awkward if he slipped. He went through improv with Chris for years before Chris came on in 90. I can’t remember if Tim came with him or was one year later, but the point is they did well together no matter HOW bad off Chris was. Chris Rock didn’t come from Second City, but he did come on with Chris in 1990 and they were together more than even Farley and Spade at the beginning. That was strategic and it worked great. And Farley certainly wasn’t “unfunny” it was just that a visible toll had been taken. And honestly at the depth of heroin addiction, if he hadn’t been on anything at all he would have been way worse off. It’s always backwards from what people think. Kurt Cobain was “sick” filming their Unplugged concert (and subsequent amazing album) for MTV. Because he was trying to get sober and stay sober which is what everyone thought they wanted. Until they realized that the withdrawal was causing the flu symptoms and the heroin had been keeping his unbearable and never properly diagnosed stomach pain at bay for so long that they didn’t realize it. So if he was calm and not shaky and eating and singing steady, etc, he was actually on something, not the opposite. So someone went and found some heroin. He takes enough to feel better and boom...can perform. Only people that have had to take care of an addict or have been one themselves know these things. That’s what people mean when they say they can’t stop. It’s do the drug or lay at home for weeks and almost die or go to treatment. Intervention is no good example of addiction in America. It’s the people trying to support their families and keep going that they need to profile. Not only the mooching, thieving complete degenerates. What was originally supposed to showcase a “worse case scenario” became a non existent standard. So the people that really need some guidance out of the cave are left to figure it out for themselves because they somehow still pass as “okay” or as someone who can’t be helped because they haven’t hit rock bottom. Whoever came up with that rock bottom thing....no. Just no. Someone who can still function in society is perfect for rehab. They just need to know it’s okay. I don’t want to say Chris was hopeless because I know how many people tried, but he obviously had deeper rooted issues that no one had figured out how to address or treat yet. He was probably just effing bored. And had never had to wrestle with the need of a physical addiction before and honestly was probably pretty pissed off about the fact that he didn’t feel in control of it anymore. And that whole 33 thing. He was OCD so you’re either in control-overdrive or you’re not in control of anything. So he would definitely have had things he told himself, and I can fully see one of them being “If I don’t die before I turn 34, then that means I’ll make it. And if I do die at 33, then it was supposed to happen.” Then he feels like he’s covered everything under this big blanket of tempting fate, and he can allow himself to be out of control because que sera sera. He has to feel like he has not being in control under control, or like he has an insurance policy on it.

@@mandiemag So many accurate things in this message. Layne Staley's unplugged performance is also notable for this subject given how pale and sickly he looks in it. I think I read that he had to shoot up right before the set in order to get through the performance. The stuff you're saying about OCD is also spot on. I have a milder form of it, and the control vs out of control balancing act you describe is the most accurate depiction of the experience I've ever heard other than by myself perhaps, especially the "Not being in control under control" concept.

@@mandiemag interesting...I think the fact he had no love from a female plays a big part in him not caring also...Ive been there my whole life and im 57 now

@@mandiemag this is a great, progressive view of how addiction goes and how loved ones actually need to act going forward. Nice writeup

@Miranda no offense, you’re making excuses for Chris Farley. He had a disease called addiction, and didn’t want to help himself. Simple as that. It’s not anyone’s fault but his own. Take offense all you want to that, I love Chris Farley myself, but this is just a giant excuse to keep using.

Same here

Yeah you could see it kinda hurt him... they were basically reinforcing something that you could tell affected his self esteem and confidence deeply... he embraced it but you could tell it also hurt him deep down... it’s probably what lead him to use as much as he did in the first place...

@Peter Evans He died six weeks later actually.

@Peter Evans This episode was October 25th, he died on December 18th. That's almost two months later

@Peter Evans Ok, you're actually trolling now that you know you're wrong... They kept him on ice til his movie came out? lmao ok bud 👍

I hear ya man. I was just thinking that myself

I'm going to be 40 in April. So I've outlived him by 7 years roughly

I had a similar realization a few months ago. I’m 36 now. I would have been dead for several years now if I was Chris...

I’d say if you’re alive, you out lived Chris Farley 🤷‍♂️

Idk if anyone can really outlive Chris Farley lol

That was Chris Farley’s idol

In a way, he was just like John Candy.

@@mr.blonde8808 More like John Belushi

He wasnt as versatile as Candy. But what a force of energy! He made the lamest material funny.

@@mr.blonde8808 Yeah cause he was overweight and died young.

@@David_R922 Chris was a hell of a lot funnier than John. Maybe it's because I'm not from the Baby Boomer generation but I never got John's appeal except for his Joe Cocker impression.

Big time.

It’s literally on peacock for anyone to see

@@jonnyleeconway yes but it’s never gonna be reaired

It's on peacock stupid

And it's also so sad that Phil Hartman was at his funeral and he died then 5 months later ❤️😢

I've been a drug user most of my life and been around hundreds of other addicts. I'm clean now but drugs don't do that to your voice. At all. Yelling on the other hand will do that. Guess who yelled all the time?

He blew out his voice during rehearsals for the show

@@scottashe984 What about his flushed skin

Hell I'm getting over a bad cold (yes they still exist!) and my voice sounds similar to Farley's here.

@@scottashe984 Opiate addicts often have raspy voices. Do no lie.

Beverly hill ninja was my favorite 😂

in that movie he has some dramatic scenes where he really shows his true heart

What's interesting is hes actually doing one of the Bosstones stage dances and he really nails it.

Coke typically helps with that kinda stuff lol

@@MStycki yeah he was on a shit load of blow

I see! The 'Its okay guys I got this' and the whole 'responsibility' thing makes sense now. Poor guy Chris, I just WISH Heidi could have just phoned the paramedics. His life was in her hands and she just walked away.

***** Yes i totally agree.Why dident she called?I wonder what really happend when Chris died.Farley hade left some messages to Mancow the same night he died like "i love you mancow,and so on but mancow just deleted them and dident showed up to the party as he promised.Spade,sandler,schneider someone could have done something.Chris just needed a friend and the wurst thing to do is to shut out a drug addic and dont care.Then they often sadly dies.

Ikr. I read that he got professional help many times during his battle with drugs, but he just couldn't fight it. Damm I miss the guy and I was just 4 years old when he passed.

***** I miss him too man.I was 16 years when i read in a newspaper that he died .I hade both tommy boy and black sheep on vhs back then and it feelt like a family member hade died and nobody knew about his drug abuse back then.

+Orion Jimmy He entered various rehabilitation programs 18 times in the year prior to his death. I'm not joking.

Wow! Good eye!

That was Ratatouille and he was the real back up host if Farley couldn't make it

@@gator9339 Yeah, I felt that in the 'Daily Braille' news paper.

Haha it was just a shadow, probably from a boom mic or something

No dude! That was no shadow! Lol that was clearly a rat!

You won't believe, I just found out that Meadows isn't Cheadle and that Chris Farley... you won't believe... was not John Candy :P

crallen33 One time I watched a movie with Cheadle and thought It's meadows! I agree they look alike!

Been saying it for years. !

They sound alike

I told that when I was a kid.. LOL!!

Lol he was definitely high in this show but he lost his voice during rehearsal man.

It’s a damn shame. I think people genuinely did try to help him though. He was in and out of rehab at least seventeen times in a two year period.

I thought he was on xans or percs but coke makes sense

Congrats Nicholas on your sobriety.

@@washedupwarvet2027watch the recent Vice episode about him. His fellow cast members talk about the voice, it wasn’t like that from rehearsal. In fact he was a train wreck and they all acknowledge that they shouldn’t have had him do this.

@Skip ads You know what I have to do now right? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pc6qa8J6xsyrp3k.html

Yeah he was high as balls here. I remember watching this when I was 13 years. Even at that age I remember saying to myself he wasn't going to last long after this. True legend though. One of the greatest if not the greatest physical comedians of all-time. RIP

Most everyone who worked with him, said they enjoyed working together with Chris Farley.

he was high everytime in front of the camera don't be naive he needed it

Or living in a van down by the river.

Chris made his weight part of his own comedy.

Chris probably wrote it.

@@briarrose29 actually the writers at snl did and he just learned to go with it. If you listen to interviews the chip and dales sketch really messed with him and he definitely had no part in writing that

FRFR

Fat isn't a bad word. It's how we treat fat people that is bad.

at Second City he was so drunk once that the audience was booing and asking that the drunk be taken off the stage.

Coca cola

haha

He had atherosclerosis so he would have never lived that long. RIP.

Looks like he's chewing gum.

Bro, he was white? What color do you expect his complexion to be? Lol

He's finishing the remnants of the apple he was taking bites out of in the earlier part of the skit.

Yep that's coco

Coke jaw

toll

@@mikekrause3671 Lol yup. Thanks

To be honest I wonder if his success, and jokes in those films are to blame about the struggles he had. It was just one big cycle of people making fun of him, or his weight. Granted, with films like Tommy Boy/Black Sheep, I'm positive him and David Spade were best friends, but just imagine being so popular because jokes are about You or your weight. I imagine it destroyed him inside being only known for those sorts of things. :(

@@ShahabSheikhzadeh not blame, just self deprecate to appease others with laughter

Not just being repeatedly cast that way, but then you have fans always expecting you to be THAT guy when they meet you. It's a life in which you can never come out of character, so he escaped it with the powdered sugar. That's a difficult thing for many well known actors. The Office fans tend to expect Steve Carrell to be like Michael Scott in person, Jim Carey to be Ace Ventura or The Mask, Will Ferrell to be the goofy dude, etc...Reality is though, they are not their characters.

This was a pretty tough watch, at least in hindsight. I only caught these on reruns around that time and I don’t remember ever seeing this

extremely hard to watch

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Yeah i was thinkinf they were disrespectful as hell, but then again his drug habit was so bad they couldnt make a skit with him in it without pointing out the elephant in the room even if it comes out as insensitive sometimes

Pretty sure that was on stern

It makes me furious that Lorne allowed this show to even happen. A fucking NURSE on stand by? Seriously? But then again he allowed a suicidal Pete Davidson to perform so you can guess he just doesn't give a shit

I mean, its not like they purposely wanted him to OD there, theres no bad blood in posting an episode someone else will

Tim wasn't that funny. He was like Kenan Thompson, only there to fill the token black role.

Yea

Tons it’s insane. I’m not complaining cause he was great but, yeah, I’m getting a lot!

Why did Chris Rock participate then

IKR, his heart must have been the size of a soccer ball by then. A night doing blow overstressed it, and off he went.

The "it's hard to help someone that doesn't want it" line sounds judgmental and dismissive (not saying YOU mean it this way). People could want help but the help that's available doesn't work for them (like cancer treatments that don't stop the spread of some cancers). Maybe the kind of treatment that's become standard for addictions... doesn't solve the core problems that drive a lot of people to use drugs.

Someone who personally sought help for his addiction *seventeen times* just in the final 3 years of their life alone "Didn't want it?" 🙄 He passed almost thirty years ago and yet the language around the actual illness of addiction is so ridiculous, judgemental, and uninformed.

@@HelloGudbye93nobody willingly gets an “illness.” Drug addicts willingly put that shit in their system. So excuse him for making it obvious Chris Farley wanted to abuse those substances.

@@ElitistNUMBER1 so emphysema from chronic smoking isn't an "illness" either. Neither is cirrhosis of the liver as a result of willful drinking. CTE, repeated concussions or torn ligaments aren't illnesses because athletes "chose" to play dangerous sports of their own free will. Right? Thank God what is medically and scientifically classified as illnesses aren't up to the discretion of dumb fucks on the internet with a 3 grade understanding of reality 🙃
