@@Steveman27 Little context missed on the reason he flipped the car. That was actually in defense of a fellow cadet and was done because of a racial slur that was used
@@cadidiot_101 yeah I never got that as a kid as that word wasn't one I was familiar with...not around here anyways but Hooks didn't deserve that...guy not watching??? His fault!!!
00:48 I like this subtle nod to Tackleberry being a team-player. He won't rat out his team, he genuinely wants them to succeed and become cops. It also shows how as a group, they have developed camaraderie.
Tackleberry actually showed his devotion to his team there. He was absolutely awake, armed and ready to go and he OVERHEARD his friends talk about intending to steal a car/break the law.... So what does this rules maniac do to these criminals? Pretends he never heard it and goes back to sleep
R.I.P Bubba, he was strong but he was humble, he could have killed anyone but he didn't for he had a great heart and he was a great human being. We'll remmeber you always. One of my favorite characters due to reasons before mentioned.
According to the behind the scenes, this was a hard scene to film in the lunchroom, because when Barbara hit Copeland with the tray, and Copeland has this goofy look in his eyes before he faints, Mahoney, Blankes and Barbera kept laughing.
Live the delayed action, where Mahoney 'suggested' the removal of the front sears. Hightower's predilection for literal instruction is brilliant, followed by not breaking because he had not been told to- then the look on the motorist's face 😆 That face-tray collision by Barbara...priceless 😂 👏🏾
Did you notice that Copeland's car which they stole so Mahoney could give Hightower a crash driving refresher course had a plate in the front of the Honda showing a Confederate flag?
2:22 That look of Bubba Smith relentless still laughing to this day hard with my brother! May god rest his soul one of the best actors out there but also an NFL footballer.
Look at Hightower when he first gets in the car. Heehee. A huge, giant, grown man can't be expected to fit into a car the size of a golf cart. I laughed like a hyena watching this. Thanks so much for posting it!

You gotta love this. Someone shows up at Mahony's bed at two o'clock in the morning and explains a problem. And Mahony is "Sure, let's fix it then." and gets up without another question.
Eventhough I have my driver license, I am too nervous to drive. Even having panic attack, anxiety and faint at driving school. My driving test also scary too but I managed to pass. I really understand Hightower and why he appreaciated Mahoney
+BishopTJH Oh wow I posted this on Feb 5, 2016, he died 10 days later, I didn't know he died, last time I checked he was alive. Thanks for letting me know. RIP George Gaynes.
Hooks was so adorable behind the wheel between her singing and giggling. And Hightower defended her when Copeland called her a racial slur/name after she accidentally ran over his feet.
The sudden appearance of the metal tray, moulded to Mr Squeeky's face, is so damn funny!! WHAAAM!!! Then it is removed & his face is neutral in a coma style before he collapsed. I had hoped it may happen that way!!😄
Which character would you disrespect in this epic? None, none at all. A great monument of a movie. Especially the last scene when the police commissioner took his revenge.
Bubba Smith as Remembered in the Blue Thunder TV series,Great as Hightower in the Police Academy franchise ,R I P Big man , 🏈It was a case in this scene. Walk away man ,Walk away 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
