chris farley isn't dead he is just living in a van down by the river
Cause everyone can't amount to JACK SQUAT!!!
Yep in heaven.
Hell yeah...and he's probably laughing at your comment now🙂
You prick, i originally wrote that in the chris farley prison speech video lmao come up with your own material Thomas Edison
i know it is kinda off topic but does anybody know of a good place to watch newly released tv shows online ?
The more he straightens his belt, the more powerful he becomes.
Todoroki Shoto OMG yes!
Half n Half... is that you man?? What you doing here.
Katsuki Bakugou What I damn well please, Explodork.
@@thescoundrel793 Dont make me come over there daddy issues
Katsuki Bakugou Come and get me Tsundere
That man has made it his mission to destroy the table every time he was in their house.
Matt Foley "once there was a boy who liked to throw things." "He started out throwing eggs." "Then he threw the big game." "then he threw back his shot of whisky." "then he threw up." "then he got thrown out of the house and then he moved into a van down by the river." R.I.P Chris Farley 1964-1997 we all miss you.
We’re you transcribing that for the deaf? Kind of a dick move not to do the whole video.
@Nathan Mitchell lmao Comment of 2021 right there.
Press F to pay respects to the big game.
There'll never be another Chris Farley.
They kept trying to replace him with Jack Black, Jonah Hill etc. Lol.
@@thegamingchef3304 What terrible choices, though there aren't any choices.
There are many Chris Farleys on coke
@@thegamingchef3304 Melissa McCarthy thinks she's a female Chris Farley as well. Not even close. She's annoying AF.
he was the second John Candy
Chris always made it a point to make David crack up and break character. I miss the Chris and David dynamic..
They were best friends
I thought spade hated him
nah man they were best friends. They likely got in fights like best buds do from time to time, but they were always good.
@@msparkes1990 No they were best friends. But they did bicker from time to time., like "an old married couple", as Spade described it.
@@randyholder4840 they were not best (that was an image they sold) but good friends but didnt part as friends...or as Spade said, " He was starting to hang around shady people,drug people who used him and he was starting to become a real mean asshole at the end,too much booze and drugs. I couldnt be around that,i walked away..." it was probably the right choice but it must still haunt him.
I heard during rehearsal Chris Farley would practice the skits all normal and tame but soon as they went live he purposely acted extra crazy to throw everyone else off
Also showtime is probably when he would snort coke
That was usually in sketches where he was cast as a minor, unfunny character with just one line. He'd throw on a little extra sauce at the live show to make people break. But for sketches like Matt Foley, he'd already have people laughing at the rehearsals.
I used to watch everyone else to see who he could get to crack. There is no way I could have kept a straight face with him doing that.
Norm did that too. Genius!
@@trevordalmon328 He was sober from Christmas 1992 to Christmas 1995
Farley never broke character. He made everyone laugh, and stayed right in the character, always. 100% all in.
He very slightly broke character in the one where he speaks to the Mexican family . He cracks up slightly lol such a good matt foley skit
There is a scene where he plays the husband & Adam Sandler plays the wife where he caresses Sandler's thigh in order to make him laugh.
He actually breaks character a lot. He always tried making Sandler laugh and would sneak in subliminal smirks and weird shit that would make Sandler just lose it.
Yeah he didn’t laugh (slater and the girl couldn’t stop).
Hartmann never broke character
Older I get the more a van down by the river seems like a good setup
PersephoneRising333 Same 😂
yeah but can't park anywhere in the US for more than an hour before the cops come. lol
A lot of folks WISH they were luvin in a van down by river. America is throwing people ON THEIR ASSES. and its getting pretty bad
Maybe a RV down by the river? Just saying...
It would certainly be more affordable
Rest in peace Chris Farley (1964 - 1997) Phil Hartman (1948 - 1998)
Passed away only 6 months apart, THAT'S sad....
There is an alternate reality where Farley lived to complete his voice work for Shrek and get help for his drug addiction...where Andy Dick was stabbed by a mugger on the way to give Phil's wife the coke, and Hartman went on to his own chat show or sitcom
Any reality where Andy Dick is taken out and both Farley and Hartman are alive is a reality I want to live in
@@Rochelle1985 Jan Hooks gone in 2014, she was there with both of them
add Jan Hooks to the list too, she is so missed
I love how Christian Slater just sits back and enjoys the ride lol
I forgot he was in this sketch,he sure had fun though!
When he says THRICE divorced, Christian Slater looks like he is gunna lose it
I love this ♡
I know i did 😂😂
I love how Matt Foley always sounds like he could break down into tears at any moment haha.
+Dfountain96 Ha ha
+BigAl Willis I think he also got his inspiration from his school football coach as well.
Dfountain96 I know right I could inmate him as Matt Foley and Tommy from Tommy boy and Chris Farley himself
Maybe it’s a little leak of all that he bottled up inside.
Lol perfect description 👏
Christian slater is looking at him in pure amazement and awe when he goes through the table with spade
Saw this comment exactly when he fell through table
I think it was supposed to be the other way around, David Spade was supposed to go through the table, as you can see by Melanie Hutsell's reaction since she broke character
Matt Foley deserved his own movie. Imagine how great it would have been.
Oh, God, yes! Lol
Let me guess movie would be called Living in a van down by the river 😂
Yes....on a cross country odyssey.
But the bill from furniture cleanup would have been more then the whole bill for all the astar Wars movies
It could have been a prequel about how he ended up LIVING IN A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!
“I’ am the egg man, goo, goo, kachew” Cracks me up every time. 🤣
I’m not sure if it was on purpose or not, but I think it’s so sweet that when he and Spade fell onto the table that Farley made sure that his friend didn’t get hurt at all. He took all the impact. Farley and Spade were best friends, anyone could tell that much 😭❤️ RIP CHRIS FARLEY
Spade lost it when Farley passed away. Spade and Sandler. They felt the blow pretty hard.
Not sure if Matt Foley or Mick "Mankind" Foley
Yeah, it was a classic stunt where he used his body to protect spade but to carry through the joke.
But Spade is nowhere to be found when Farley needs him the most
@@MrFarid345 Meaning...?
Lmao when he opens the door and yells "Oh My God" from the flaming shit bag lmao I nearly died from laughter.
Im doubling over with laughter...totally unexpected
David stayed on the floor cause he was laughing so hard 😂
I always thought it was because he’d gotten hurt when he and Farley fell.
@@airdriver that's what i thought too
Didn't he get a concussion?
@@annawalker5569 Don't see how, he fell right on Farley. It's probably funnier b/c he knows him.
@@airdriver nope Chris didn't let David take any impact
The curtain pull is absolutely legendary.
It starts with the stomping at the fire till the end. Magic mojo. Replayed it just now 20 times and yes the curtain fall is unexplainable
👌
@@rickjensen2833 was curtain pull improv? or scripted?
it's so good
@@bubbaXzone Of course it was scripted.
I saw this skit live back in the day. I had just got home and had a couple drinks in me. I just remember laughing so hard, I could barley breathe. Especially when he stepped on the flaming dog shit and then fell through the window. I kept on laughing hours after it was over. Farley has to be one of the funniest people that ever lived. He was great in all of his characters.
I’m laughing just reading your comment. This is awesome.
He was a brilliant physical comedian, he'd hurt himself for a laugh everytime, lol
True. I read how he felt he had to entertain anytime he was around ppl..sad. So heart 💔. My oldest son was a chubby guy growing up and could do a fantastic job doing matt foley in his teen yrs☺️
When he just gets right up in Spade's face and straight up nuzzles his ear. he's like daring him to laugh.
Farley's physical comedy is pure gold...this is his best Foley skit by far!
Matt Foley caused WAY more damage than these hooligans did throwing eggs.
your grip on reality is disturbing....
That's da point of his skits he is worse than da kids he is trying to motivate to better. Kids If I dont change this will be me kinda thing
Fire Marshall bill and Matt Foley would’ve been perfect together as a skit back than lol
R.I.P. Phil Hartman R.I.P. Chris Farley
I'm pretty sure Christian Slater passed away too. What's happening to everyone?
M Palmer Slater is alive
M Palmer it’s called aging
+M Palmer and is it a coincidence that Chris looked like a speedball?me thinks too much knot
i think it was a reference to his career...
It NEVER grows old. I live in England now. It is my great pleasure to share these hilarious memories with those who have never seen them before!!! 😂🤣😂 RIP Phil and Chris
R.I.P Chris your humor and humbleness as a human being will never be forgotten.
David Spade's scream as they fall on the table, perfect!
I love that Chris Farley made sure he landed first. I guess David Spade was screaming because he thought he was going first instead.
@@shuboy05 Notice how he took David's weight completely on top of him? I like to believe that in spite of Chris being so fully in the character, he was still instinctively protecting his friend. Imagine taking that fall, fully on your back, with the extra weight of another person crashing on top of you. Talk about commitment!
@@svyt David Spade and Chris Farley definitely had a special friendship. Every time he's interviewed, Spade always breaks out a Farley story.
I feel like these are all the same person ^
@@svyt Farley was quite the stunt man, even though he never made a living at it.
R.I.P Chris Farley you will forever be missed
Matt Diaz yes he he's living in a van down by the river in the golden gates
Krakenway ain't that the truth he was so funny and he still is he made me laugh a lot in Tommy boy with fat guy in a little coat
now he's in heaven living in a RV Down by the riverrrrrrrr
+Trevor Ambrose that sounds like a realy peaceful life 😀
@WILD BILL wtf?
Watching Farley break all but the great P Hartman will always be the best thing
R.I.P. Chris Farley, Phil Hartman, Norm MacDonald. What a talented room!
the way he delivers JACK SQUAT is always perfect. 2:00
Hilarious how the "children" couldn't watch him very long before having to turn away, and they still couldn't hide their smiles. Just another testament to how funny and talented Chris Farley was.

God I miss him. He didn't care as long as he got people laughing
i feel man. i loved him
he did care
I Loved him 2!!!!!💚💚💚😋
@@stonecold5373 He meant that Chris didn't care how he got people laughing as long as he got them too.
How I miss what could have come in the future
This is one of the few skits where the other cast have a problem holding in their laughter. Farley was a comedy genius.
the cast breaking is kind of a staple of SNL, otherwise bland uninteresting skits get new life because the actors break during them
Red Skelton would get himself and the others cracking up.
I wouldn’t have been able to keep from laughing and breaking character 😂
Chris Farley.. My childhood filled with laughter. Thank you. Rest In Peace friend.
I took the NBC tour the same day they did this skit. I was watching them rehearse it. Good old days!
The part where Farley made sure he was on the bottom when he tackled Spade speaks to his gentle soul.
Either that, or his cellulite...
That's probably the most live fun Christian Slater's ever had. Seemed like he was just in awe of this performance throughout the skit
It is always great seeing Hartman and Farley. They were two of the best on the show. It does make me sad that they died way too young.
Am sure his heart rate is north of 200 during this whole skit. It's a wonder he never stroked out during half of his skits. Still one of my top five cast members.
I love how Chris Farley protected his friend David Spade from the fall onto the coffee table.
Matt: *Enters the room* The Table: My time has come
Octave: 99 Coordinaton: 99 Mass: 99 Belt: 100
I want him as a motivational speaker at my school.
Gamergod88 Too bad he's dead
At least he doesnt live in a van by the river anymore
@@Jo36528 "If anyone needs me i'll be buried in a van down by the river!"
Well, ya better get yourself a medium, and summon his ghost. Until then, I got two words for ya-- You better get... your act TOGETHER!!!
Duribethin bahaha!!!
I already laughed my ass off right when he said "JACK SQUAT!!" but by the time the sketch finished, I lost my ass but I continued to laugh. Chris Farley is such a comedic source of hilarity. God rest his soul.
That plus a nickel will get you jack squat
It's nice you find him funny cause I didn't
I hope this gets through the universe to your soul Chris, thank you for putting a smile on my face, thank you for your stories in your movies, thank you for putting so much heart into all of your characters. I’m sorry you couldn’t find peace here, but I pray you are at peace and in joy now. Rest In Peace Chris Farley 🙏
Beautiful sentiments. Thank you.
The more David cant hold it together, Chris takes it up a notch. Chris you gave us so many laughs, I hope we didnt fail ..you....
I love how the audience reacts when he says "Matt Foley" like they know what's about to happen
You can tell it’s impossible to stay in character around Chris. What a amazing comic.
Farley at his very BEST. 😂👏
Lol I love Farley. NO ONE could stay in character when he got going lol he was comedy embodied
no one else could pull this off better than Chris Farley.
4:14 "Dad, I want you to sincerely do everyone a great service...and CLAM UUUP!!!!!!" Fucking hilarious!
Lol Christian slater could not stop laughing or getting ready to it’s hard to keep a straight face these are very good comics
Phil Hartman was the only one that didn't break character.. what a legend and pro
probably cracking up off camera.
"Then he threw back a shot of whiskey, then he threw up." This made me laugh so freakin hard back in the day.
HILARIOUS
Don't forget...he threw the game.......(LMAO)
@@sylvesterjennings6804 he also go thrown out of the house... ...and moved *into a VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!*
I remember when this originally aired on TV. I was a freshman in high school. It was hilarious. I feel fortunate that Chris Farley was in the cast when I was in high school. He never disappointed in any sketch he did. Even if it wasn't a good sketch, at least Farley's part would be funny. We still love you, Chris!
First time I saw this, and when he did the curtain pull, I was crying laughing, but when he went through the window, I lost it! Busted out laughing! Rest In Peace Chris Farley
I think Chris Farley made it his personal mission to get people to break character in almost every skit.
4:15 "Dad, I want you to do everyone a great service, and CLAM UP!!!"
A couple of the actors were not told that he would fall through the window...their reactions are REAL!
We only see one actor's reaction. She put her hand over her mouth. AMAZING!
Slater was pretty shocked too. Had a massive smile on his face! Lol.
Just like they didn’t know it was a breakable table in the other skit with Christina Applegate.
@@Jericko427 I feel like Slater just dropped character and was just like "I am just happy to be here and have a front row seat to this crazy!"
I think they were only prepared to see him breaking the table again, but not for all the rest! xD
I’ve never laughed at a skit so hard in my life. Just the end the way he falls through that window gets me every time! God bless Chris Farley and Phil Hartman!
Matt Foley was great on the Halloween episode! And Chris Farley will live on in each of our hearts. And I'm sure he's got the angels and my mom laughing in heaven!
This is one of my top 5 favorite all-time SNL skits. Absolutely hilarious. So many classic lines: "I am THRICE divorced." (and holds up three fingers) "I am the Eggman. KOO KOO CA CHOOOO!" "And I live in a VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!!" Chris Farley/Matt Foley one of the very best characters ever.
The "THRICE DIVORCED" line gets me every time!
Didn't he hold up 4 fingers?
I love Farely. But, this skit is a bit overrated. It wasn't that great.
My favorate one is how he always says JACK SQAUT
The original skit was written by Bob Odenkirk of “Better call Saul” fame.
This is funny, but the one with Christina Applegate was better. Foley: "What do you want to do with your life?" Applegate's character: "I wanna live in a van down by the river." Foley: "Well.... there will be plenty of time for you to live in a van down by the river..... when YOU'RE LIVIN' IN A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!"
lol it was
That was the first one on SNL.
🤣😭
the other one was 100% better
@RJ Yes, I know. And this wasn't the last.
When Chris goes crashing thru the coffee table AGAIN is just hilarious!! Forget the great 🎃 pumpkin!! It's the Great Farley!! 😂😂😂
The genius of Farley has yet to be matched... what a legend.
You can clearly hear David spade yell "MATT!!" as he goes goin through the table 🤣
21 years since we lost Chris today. Sad seeing both Phil and Chris, but legends never truly die.
The way in which Foley put out the fire was perfect. He could not have driven the dog excrement any deeper into the floor boards with that heavy foot stomp and drag
Chris Farley is the best physical comedian in history...hands down
The Farley-Sandler-Rock-Hartman-Spade era was classic SNL. Probably the second-best line up after the original cast.
Mark Flanigan better than the original come on
Man, Schneider deserves a spot in there
If he were still here, just imagine how different 'Grownups' would have been.
@@BlueBagger83 Obviously would have had the Kevin James part.
@@chasesmith8544___Chase_Chase-meister__Chase making copies___I agree
Chris Farley was a top notch performer. Almost manic in his energy and hilarious! I miss him.
There will never be a another Chris Farley 😢💔💕🥰😘 I grew up on Chris Farley I grew up on" a van down by the river" 😆😆 Love 💕 you Chris
Farley set the bar so high on SNL.😂😂😂
"Help me out, young fella! I can't see real good... Is that Bob Hope over there?"
Gasoline85 no one laughed
I did.
Hehehhehee!
"Keep that up young man, there's a big future in it".
Great line.
Wonder what the going price is nowadays for a cup of Jack Squat.
dnatz58 two bucks and four I don't knows
dnatz58 Oh, about three fiddy !
idk... and a nickel
Jack Squat has always been free.
We can ask the guy in the van down by the river.
I love Phil Hartman's reaction when they go through the table. Like, "Yup. The table again."
I just love that last scream david gives before they drop... HAHAHA😂😂😂
I’ll be extracting glass from my rear end in a *VAN down by the RIVER*
When he falls with David spade😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Old comedians never die. They just move into a VAN down by the RIVER.
@ 4:58... The sound engineer was right on cue with the broken glass sound effect... and it's impressive how fast Chris finds his glasses and puts them back on after falling thru the window
Hartman and Farley damn 😞 Still making us laugh even after all these years! RIP fellas
I remember watching this when it first aired. Laughed my ass off again just now and shed some tears missing these two brilliant and amazing comedians who left us too soon.
Chris Farley comedic genius I miss you buddy God bless
his chemistry is amazing he's funny love how they can't control their laughter
Farley and Hartman aren’t dead. They’re LIVING IN A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!!!!
Watching all the old Farley clips after the SNL tribute. 😂
3:48 - "How do you think the EGGS felt?" a question we ALL should ponder :)
The cast regulars are more or less thinking, "Ok, here we go with the Farley craziness again", but Slater is thinking, "Holy crap, this is freaking amazing!"
True comedic legend. Would’ve been great to see where his career was going. Funniest man I’ve ever seen. His ability to bring out happiness in anyone was amazing.
Christian Slater... oh my! Phil Hartman... too soon. RIP. That was an awful day when that story broke out.
i love how christian slater is trying his best to keep it together.
Chris Farley. There will never be another like him
That drape fall is perfection.
unbelievable how funny Chris Farley was. My favorite movie starring him and David Spade, "Tommy Boy" !! so awesome.
How in the World did Chris ever think he wasn't funny???? He's Laurel and Hardy all by himself!
The funniest bit isn't the people themselves, but the reactions of the people. But Chris found a way to do both😂
