Tim Conway's FUNNIEST Tonight Show Moments That Left Johnny Carson Helpless

Tim Conway sat down across from Johnny Carson in 1977, listened to Carson explain that the show was about to celebrate its sixteenth year on the air, and told him with complete sincerity that he had no idea this was what Carson did for a living. They had known each other for four or five years. Been to each other's homes. Conway had simply never thought to ask. That was the opening move. Everything that followed was worse — in the best possible way. Dorf the Olympic weightlifter demanded complete silence before his world record attempt, then failed to lift the weight with the expression of a man discovering that four hundred and eighty-four pounds is heavier than previously estimated. The confidence never broke. A man in a red jacket asked for Conway's car at a party and Conway gave it to him because that is what the situation called for. The car turned up twenty-eight days later. Conway delivered the entire sequence with the calm of someone reviewing a moderately interesting insurance claim. Harvey Korman lost it completely in the dressing room before a single camera had rolled — Korman in a full chicken outfit lifting the beak to discuss a genuine personal crisis, Conway in a dress and pearls listening sincerely, until Conway looked at the chicken pacing in front of him and asked if they could wait until later when Korman wasn't a chicken and Conway wasn't an Avon lady. Korman put three of Conway's kids through school on that fifty-dollar bet. Carson called him a funny man who thought funny and did funny things. He said it simply, at the end of an appearance, like a man stating a fact he had been sitting with for a long time. —————— Subscribe to CelebViral — we cover the stories everyone else is too scared to touch. #TimConway #JohnnyCarson #TonightShow #HarveyKorman #Dorf #CarolBurnett #CelebViral #ClassicTV #ClassicComedy ⚠️ Thumbnail Disclaimer: The thumbnail is a visual representation created to reflect the video topic and encourage viewers to watch.
