When norm is sincere, he really is...sincere.

[thethermother]

RIP Norm. That must be a hell of a party up there.

[colebyrnes]

When she asks if Norm saw Chris when things were getting bad, notice the abnormally long pause after he says "yeah..." and his unfocused gaze. In that moment it seems like he was reliving a sense of guilt or sadness. Breaks my heart.

[JonnyDIY]

Farley could make anyone laugh to tears!

[jayfunk]

"he did not have that survival instinct" Holy shit that was some profound shit right there.

[wisterV]

He could make people that didn’t like him laugh. That says it all.

[puertoricanboy]

I been missing Chris since I was a little kid and now we are all missing the two of them.😓 I hope they still keep making more generations laugh🙏🏼

[Tim_the_Enchanter]

You hear the same thing about Farley from everyone who was close to him. He wasn't confident. He always wanted to be so much more than Fatty Fall Down ... and he was ... but he never really believed it. Just a tremendous gift to comedy, and such a sad loss.

When one of the funniest guy say chris farley is funniest. Then its true

[hacksdp]

"I was worried about, Spade."

[banditdawgs]

RIP to the both of them. They are now laughing together again.

He went out of his way to make me laugh in the airport. I'll always love his heart.

Amazing interview, and Normie made sure to slip in a fil’m’ at 1:03 with a perfect delivery

[raymac]

Norm is in heaven now with Chris, living in a van down by the river.

[wellthatsfantastic]

Rest in Peace Norm and Chris!! We loved you both!!

[scasey]

Interesting: "Belushi wasn't funny; he was a good actor." I agree.

[thegrimyeaper]

"He'd tuck, you know..."

[fflife]

You can’t hear Norm speak without realizing, he wasn’t only a comedic genius, but also a genius genius. Keeping that a secret was key to his comedy. But it would be interesting to know his IQ.

[Karemaker]

I like it when we see the rare serious Norm.

Meanwhile
Farley: You really think I was funny?
Belushi: You really think I wasn't funny?
Norm: Aww shit you guys weren't supposed to hear that!
