Leslie Nielsen died

He was one funny son of a gun. His Frank Drebin was a masterpiece. This scene always makes me laugh: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSjK2Oqrgic |

I did not see a whole lot of his movies, but I did see the one in which he was playing an umpire and went into one of the funniest paradoies I have ever seen.
I loved it.

I think the only bad role he ever played was Mr. Magoo. Don't feel bad if you missed it.

Nooooo! I love this guy. He is one of the rare ones who found, quite late in his career, that he had a talent for comedy. He was amazing! He will be missed...

He also did a lot of charitable work and would perform for free at benefits for underprivileged kids and even at orphanages.
Unlike some actors, he took his talents to those who couldn't travel or afford to see him in person.
