An American treasure gone too soon... a tragic ending. I hope this becomes reality.

From the comments:

Even though "Test Footage" is in the title, I was so sold on your performance that it left me wanting an entire movie within the first minute.. and even more so as the scene progressed. Not comparing here, but this is absolutely one of the best impressions I've ever seen in my life. And I grew up watching Robin Williams, both in film, and in comedy

This is just….incredible to keep watching. This NEEDS to happen!

1. I am amazed he can recreate Robin's microexpressions!

Absolutely wonderful.

[Clash City Rocker]

2. That is a spectacular impression

3. I'm sobbing like a baby. That was incredible!

[NurseJackie]

6. I know what you mean.

A reminder of what we've lost.

7. I had the biggest crush on him since Mork & Mindy and it never waned.

11. Me too😢

4. Loved the show when it was originaaly on

And a Mork line I will remember the rest of my life. Mindy picked up the phone and she said it was an important Call. Mork said;

Who is it, Mindy?

The President?

The Pope?

FRANK ZAPPA?



Been a FZ fan since the October 16, 1971 Zappa/Mothers Stony Brook late show. First album was Just Another Band from L.A., because it was the same set list as my first show, with the Flo and Eddie Mothers.

-90% Jimmy

this vid here is INCREDIBLE. ACTING!

5. It took me about 10 seconds of "Yeah, sure - no way." And then I was hooked. Great job!

9. Nailed it

If you can play Robin Williams you are an actor.

13. LOL! Robin Williams is a national treasure... his death, and his emotional problems...

... his depression, his drug and alcohol abuse, his "diffuse Lewy body dementia" (and the fact that this could become a motion picture) are of great interest. He's woven into the very fabric of our national collective consciousness. Just the same way that Shatner in Space is also interesting.

How's that? Hmmm?

Thanks for posting NJ. It is very appropriate for this forum.

18. Nanu-nanu!

20. Quite

21. It's a way to re-focus the attention on mental-health, substance abuse, and dementia...

It's a way to re-focus the attention on mental-health, substance abuse, and dementia. His depression and suicide are being talked about again. It's similar to when Michael J. Fox's celebrity status brings attention and interest to Parkinson's Disease, or when the celebrity status of people like Fran Drescher or Angelina Jolie draws attention to breast cancer.

Smart people who should know better understand and pick-up on these things. Others focus more on the messenger rather than the underlying message. (If you know what I mean.)

22. I Know What You Mean

and still find his death sorroful and shocking
