In 2008, I took two of the greatest comedies of all time -- Airplane! and The Naked Gun -- and pulled out the best scenes from each. I then edited my favorite ones together to create the above video. Because this was created in 2008 when Leslie was very much alive, it was never intended to be a Leslie Nielsen tribute (even though he dominates the majority of the video), but due to the changing circumstances of November 28, 2010, I will acknowledge that a Leslie Nielsen tribute is inevitably what this has become. I had originally dedicated the video to Leslie simply because he was my personal hero, but that too has taken on new significance now.
R.I.P. in particular to those actors who have passed since the creation of this video: Leslie Nielsen, Peter Graves, and Barbara Billingsley.
Leslie, thank you for over 60 years of film, television, and theatre. Your excellence in drama and comedy has inspired me forever. You will be missed.

Thanks to Roger Ebert, AOL, Facebook, and many others for using this video in their articles to spread Leslie's humor around following his passing. Special thanks to Brian Sousa at figurethingsout.com for using this video in his article! Read Brian's article at: http://www.figurethingsout.com

Yes I totally agree! The best tribute to him that I read was, "He could read and make a Traffic Ticket sound Hilarious." A fitting Tribute to his Comedic Skills. Rest in Peace Mr. Nielsen. He is probably making God bust a gut!

RIP Leslie!!!
zachary delagarza Says:
leslie was one of the only comedic actors that do the most simple and subtle comedy yet still me laugh every time. he's not like some of today's comedy actors who resort to making the funniest parts of the movies when they say "fuck" or make a fart sound

Shirley (Surely) you can't be serious xD
startug Says:
Hot Shots! and Hot Shots Part Deux with both great films. All three have made some great films, although I think David Zucker is the only one who is still active in films, as he is doing Scary Movie 5 next year.

Hard to tell with all the blood on it.
bwc3821 Says:
He was somewhat famous but his dramatic career was only so-so. He was in very few successful movies before moving on to comedy.
blitzforthewin Says:
Wasn't leslie neilson famously an actor in serious movies, before he started doing comedy? I think I remember hearing that he used to be a successful actor in the very genre that these movies are parodies of
