Comedian Billy Crystal delivers funny and touching eulogy for Muhammad Ali 

The most perfect public speaker honoring a friend. It was easy :~)

He was perfect and no notes. The best I’ve heard.

that line got me :( ... so powerful..

+Tim Kruse that line hit me hard too

Frank Martinez exactly! Rip to the greatest boxer ever!!!

Thats Ali..cool comment.

Phillip McCann

Pure poetry

truly beautiful and great comparison. the visuals he created with his wording was incredible

Lightning runs from Ali!.......

I'm not crying. You're crying.

ABSOLUTELY!!

Absolutely.

No doubt!

Bill Clinton's was awful imo. Guy looks worn out :(

I haven't heard a lot of them but it's certainly the best eulogy I've ever heard. You can tell all of it is straight from the heart.

This is a classic speech from an actor who is spot in. Your born with it not trained!

Alan King once described him as "an old soul". He was a bridge from the old entertainers to the younger

True!

Yeah, to hell with the laws… who needs them! Right?

alex lee You would know. But tell us, how do they compare to Bernie's?

+doceigen trump was tiny thats probably why he's so angry and waves his arms all the time.....Bernie had a elephant trunk down there but a but saggy from being so old

+alex lee WTF...LMAO!

Eat it shit head..............

+Big Ben amen

'Look at the middle east'. Are you actually looking and experiencing?? You are just depicting a tiny part of the Middle East through the television and media put in front of you. You obviously never visited the majority of beautiful middle eastern countries before. Ignorance is strong with you. So sad. Suggest you actually do more research and travel more instead of being naive like that.

That's like asking Satan to get along with God - STUPID!!!

cosell too....

If we stopped looking at people as Jewish/Muslim, Straight/Gay, Black/White, Rich/poor....then yes there's hope for us. We are many labels.....most important being: Human in need of respect, compassion, dignity, etc....

Great eulogy. So poetic in this fragment

Looking at you Israel!

Unless the people on the other side want to rob & murder you.

So true!! 🦋

@@StayHuman2011 looking at you liberals

I guess that was a dig at Trump. But for the United States to be a Country, it must have walls. W/o a border, we will soon stop existing. So shame on all of you who think having people enter into our Country illegally is okay; it’s a pretty sick definition of love.

Well, I was crying beyond the edge during this!

Im guessing when he said" the most famous Muslim sitting with Jews huh"

dude I broke down and cried like a baby honestly it was the best cry I've had in years I was a weeping willow for at least a whole hour after this video ended

Please seek therapy

When i found out of his passing I cried. Followed him as long as i can remember.

+Pirabee Ali did not "dodge" the draft. he stood up to it. Bill Clinton, Mitt Romney, Donald Trump, George W. Bush, etc.... were "dodgers"

+Pete Gotthardt no you're wrong about Bush, liberal.

Nebur59 Yes indeed, I am a Liberal and proudly VOLUNTEERED and served in the U.S.Army. I am also proud of Ali for having the courage to stand up to to the heinous draft system. If he had been better connected (and a different color), he might have done the "dodge" of Bush (where your daddy arranges for you to pretend you are in the service); but he chose to address his objection to the war in Vietnam to the U.S. government personally with wisdom and intelligence. His decision cost him dearly, but he never flinched. He was a great human!

+Pete Gotthardt I volunteered as well and served proudly during the Vietnam era, although I couldn't admit it then because of all the criticism I would have received. I was never sent to Vietnam (and I'm not white nor rich nor politically connected) just as most of the hundreds of thousands of members of the military who served during that time did not serve in a combat zone. So even though former pres Bush didn't go to Vietnam he didn't dodge the service, he served in the nat guard which is more than you can say for BClinton. It was the liberal leaning main stream media who would have hung Bush if it was true what Dan Rather was reporting about him. I too used to be a liberal until I gained the wisdom to realize that the liberal approach to politics is wrong, not stupid or evil just wrong.

LOL...enjoy!!!

Are you back to 100% Dennis? I know you wrote this 3 years ago, I hope you are, little brother. ;)

I really liked his story about him and Ali at Howard Cosell's funeral.

because they came from the heart

This death tore me up. He died and then Gordie Howe died in the same week. I was so messed up, I literally waited to hear Billy’s eulogy because I knew it would be comforting.

I disagree

that's wrong

Please do not be like that. There are quite a few who do not see labels. I fear that you, Pirabee are one that sees a Muslim before they see a person.

+Pirabee Big deal he spoke at the funeral of Ali champ of the world, and for 50% of it, all he spoke about were all things Jewish. How many times did he mention Jew in there and he got Israel in there too. Knowing the entire world was watching. It's all hasbara.

Sometimes bridges take time to build.

+Samuel Thrift right....if you're not committed to building one because it's not in your.....'heart and soul'.................

+Samuel Thrift Not when it comes to people. All it takes is a kind, sincere, gesture!!!

Hilarious comment considering Billy Crystal spends the bulk of his time living in Monte Cielo a GATED Community in Puntarenas, in the hills above the Pacific Ocean near Jaco and Pacific Palisades, CA (USA) another GATED community with security haha. Maybe tear down the gates and build bridges so we can all hang out in Billy's neighbourhood (Syrian refugees included) That way we can use his PRIVATE tennis courts, swimming pools, beaches etc Haha

wow what a stupid comparison..are you really that stupid old man..why full of hates..home and country isn't the same..don't you have a door in your house or you just let the robbers to come in freely..old and stupid..what a combination..

Closest thing to a super hero Americas had!

Oh come on.

It won't change the fact he was a gutless draft dodger and a racist

+Arky Bald Knobber he was far from gutless, why should he have fought in that war for a country who hated him because of his race? Put the hate aside and b truthfu

thequeenlotus126 His race give plenty of reasons to be hated.

Fact!

So true

True,

Meet him at that club in Orlando.

Gee, was sure it was for your ass.

jes - You really should seek some help.

Just like Karl Marx?

+Arky Bald Knobber holy shit how much salt did you have? McSalty

Totally agree!
