Burt Reynolds has died aged 82 and this clip is a lovely and very funny reminder of the great man
Burt Reynolds has died aged 82 and we’re going to watch The Longest Yard, or Deliverance, or maybe Boogie Nights tonight. Maybe all three.
But until then this is a lovely two minutes of the great man talking to David Letterman about his early career, as shared by @MrKenShabby.

Lovely stuff.
“They always asked for, whenever they wanted to set someone on fire – we’ve got a stair fall here, a 70ft stair fall – get that Reynolds kid, this kid’s got a brain about the size of a pea.
‘My mom used to call – god bless her – I’d say ‘I’m on a show next week, be sure to watch’ and she’d say ‘how you doing to die?’”
RIP – I loved you, Burt. https://t.co/P2e3nIUNrB

And then there was this clip as well.
America’s overwhelming horniness for Burt Reynolds in the 70s and 80s was responsible for one of most iconic endings in Golden Girls history. pic.twitter.com/eKYL9EY28i
