It's a great routine, but it can only be performed once.

The last thing he ever heard was people laughing at him.

That is a great jacket to die in.

I feel like I need to post my reaction video. My eyes can only get so big.

He died and he killed

I slay me!

it's more than disturbing that his labored last breath got the biggest laugh

gurgle

why can't Carlos Mencia steal from this guy?

Pretty much just sadness tinged with sadness.

They had to keep him on the stage for "legal reasons" and didn't even turn the lights on backstage as they tried to revive him.

It's sad not only because nobody deserves to die like that, it's sad because he could have been resuscitated.

This is really depressing

It really is depressing, and I have the vaguest of memories of actually watching this. They continued to laugh because his whole act was based around being a lovable loser who was resigned to everything going wrong. It works, horribly, with his stage persona.

And yeah, I don't recall anything about not treating him at the scene.

I'm not sure If I should laugh at this.

That's fucked up, man. Apparently he was a giant fucking dick in real life. Alcoholic, abusive, mean as hell.

Still, that's a fucked up way to go.

Damn, I feel terrible for laughing at that.

Stop me if you've heard this one.

You do have to give him credit, falling backwards so it looked like it was staged for maximum comedic effect (especially the fez). Dying is easy, comedy is hard, but this guy does both and makes it look like child's play.

Take my life, please!

Oh my God. I really thought Scroobius Pip made this up.

WHEN DID THIS PLAZE TURN INTO ROTTEN.COM?!?!?!

This isn't depressing. This is honestly beautiful. This man died doing what he loved; making people laugh.

I can think of worse ways to go. Most of 'em, really.

FIND THE REST OF THE TAPE!

Well, he did die really hilariously. How awkward.

5'ed for 'corpsing' tag

where is keyboard cat when you need him?

"Favorited 4 Times".

Funny as anything.

Coming back after a year or so.. this video really, really bothered me. And I still won't watch it again. BUT.. of all the death videos I've seen it haunts me the least because I know that a British comedian wouldn't mind checking out this way. Anything but mindless good taste!

And here, students, we see an early form of the "Time Travel Mishap Syndrome", where the submitter's username creates a sort of ironic bonus tag.

flump

How many comedians can say they've killed and died at the same exact moment?

There's supposed to be a more complete video on YouTube,.but I haven't fopund it yet For some reason, I'd really like to see a little more of his final routine.
