classic - the first half was rehearsed, the second part around the 6:15 mark is where a very young Robin Williams asks for another shot and breaks up Carol.

Thanks for posting this. I think these types of moments are how he'd like to be remembered. He took out one of the greatest that day and he loved every minute of it. This was the final run through of the skit, the one where he was allowed to "pull stuff out of his hat" as Carol Burnett put it. She also told the audience to "pray for her" before the final take began.

Late 1980s, I think. Just brilliant.
