Gary Busey Wrestled A 600 Pound Bear | Letterman 

This is 4 years before his motorcycle accident. His brain was fully functioning here.

Busey doesn't get enough credit for his acting ability. Even with his Best Actor Oscar nomination for The Buddy Holly Story, people seem to forget he's a very good and entertaining actor

I love that guy. Gary Busey is a great actor and a great Entertainer

FYI Gary is 79 and alive.

He’s an absolute cuckoo with or without the accident. But he is an absolute character and still gives me that tender heart vibes.

He was always great at comedy. Idk if I laugh more at him before the motorcycle wreck or after. Either way, he’s a legend.

The guy is a natural entertainer.

The look of this show is striking, even today. It has such a perfect vintage look. Thank you for sharing such a quality master. Getting my mind off my troubles for 11 mins. Gary is so bright and aware. Mmm. Feel for the guy. Gary knows Nick Nolte haha. Somehow makes sense. They want to sing together. This doesn't though, really. Haha.

I had never heard of The Bear searched its 99% on rotten tomaties. Time to buy the bluray lol

The movie clip usually isn't included, so I appreciate seeing the scene from 'The Bear' with the interview. Hope this starts a trend.

The Man The Legend 👑

Y'know it's celebrities like Gary Busey, Steven Seagal & Christopher Walken that make the entertainment industry.....entertaining.

I had no idea about the motorcycle accident...i just thought he was a little crazy.

Why doesn't this surprise me? 😂

Christ, I can’t be the only person who checks google even before watching the video for the obit. It’s a Gosh darn crapshoot every single time.

Busey’s a pretty good actor. I think he should’ve had a bigger career.

Of course he did.

G.B. for Presidency!

Butter Sausage.😂❤

Gary Busey is still fully functional. More than most people have ever functioned. 8:35

We were mere boys that looked up to Gary Busy. 👍

Gary Busey and Keith Richards are proof zombies exist!😂😂😂

So Gary Busey and Nick Nolte were almost in a room together?

Wikipedia says he's alive. But is he okay?

Man was bulky, damn

save the chicken bones for the wild man!

Only a dollar?!?

Those white shoes shoes remind me of the DIRT BAG cheap chuckys I'd keep together w duct tape and a prayer 🙏🏻🤔

They showed the film clip 😮

What's so impressive about a bear? He built a high performance three wheeled chair for his nephew AND helped kill a werewolf..

Did Gary Busey die? Why else would Dave Letterman release a video?

Cocaine bear totally makes sense now. Still haven't seen it.

I saw Sam Harris star in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat in 1996.

Good to see ole GB before he went completely bat shnit crazy.

The soles of his shoes…eew

---,--------------------- next x I need petroleum jelly.....asking clerk at drugstore.....could u please tell me where the chicken grease is.....thanks4sharing

that was one boring clip they chose to use. Doesn't speak well for the rest of the movie.

rip😢😢😢

Wow, Gary Busey finally died. What was the cause of death?

Same exact thing happened to my uncle you got into a car accident. Severe head injuries and next thing we knew full-blown schizophrenia
