Please Don’t Destroy - Gone Too Soon - SNL

[@literallysatan4598]

That Malala tweet is a brilliant touch

[@OJsGuardianAngel]

Could you eli5 ?

[@chrispreperato5562]

Malala won the Nobel peace prize at 17 for her activism work against the Taliban, which included an assassination attempt on her life when she was a teenager. She’s generally seen as one of the most positive female role models. Think of it like Mother Teresa laughing at the dude dying

[@DoraSniper]

It was racist

I like they used "skidoosh" as a verb, then later turned it back into a sound effect

Dakota Johnson really did introduce them.

[@perthotheemptycup6754]

They’re so lucky, Reverend Buttcheek P. Rosenthal really is an icon

[@SuperJoshdave]

I would have liked for them to reference that instead of all this. Continuity matters

[@brendonsmith3080]

“He skadooshed off a fat guy’s stomach like Kung Fu Panda and exploded on site.” The fact that they’re telling it like this even though the death is supposed to be sad makes it ironically more hilarious

[@Mk-eo3ss]

I’m dying😂😂😂 “ow my nuts look at me I’m shredding the Grand Canyon!”😂😂😂

[@NicolaiBolas]

This is gonna sound improbable, but for some reason Ben saying, "this is gonna sound cartoonish," and, "he was 4 foot 3," were the lines that cracked me up the most! Another gem from Please Don't Destroy!

[@justanotherthought]

and 1500 pounds

[@stevewegling8070]

You can tell the writers are familiar with synonyms😄

[@Xenon-h9z]

was it funny because you're super short yourself?

The qualifiers of “this is going to sound cartoonish” or “comically improbable” were went sent me over the edge 😂

[@nerd_entangled]

What a random place to see you haha. I love your draft videos

[@medea2693]

I like that there's a gentle, sympathetic piano score playing in the background as they describe his death. Then the actual footage is filled with cartoonish sound effects.

[@shaboodle]

Most anatomically correct Chef Boyardee we’ve seen yet

[@edsmith3461-z7m]

He was a real guy.

This was awful typically the destroy boys are peak but anyone could have replaced Sydney

​@@spiralentree737Very few of their sketches are specific to the host

[@spiralentree737]

Lol the background music and celebrity tweets killed me😂

I laughed so hard at this one I had to pause it because I kept missing it from all the laughing. I had to watch it like 5 times. This might be one of my favorite SNL sketches of all time.

[@xRainbowSprinkles10]

The cartoon sound effects got me

[@BizzeeB]

I refuse to believe this story without seeing the video.

[@robgronotte1]

You heard it, didn't you?? How rude, this was one of their best friends!

[@ExposedRoot]

I can't believe I laughed so hard at that silly skit!!😂

[@thomasd3104]

Incidentally, Boyardee Jr. had a BMI of 405.

[@JayHartin]

I had my team at MIT crunch the numbers on that, and they concur with your result.

[@dangerdan79]

His last name was Rosenthal, best for now not to pick at why he forsook his father's name.

[@rodrigogcoritiba]

the piano at 01:14 is just glorious. Simply amazing.

[@luismedina709]

I was focused more on the piano than the sketch! 😅 trying to figure out who the composer/musician is, style reminds me Olafur Arnalds, Jon batiste, Bon Iver…

[@TacShooter]

The cartoon sound effects on the video. XD The explosion sound effect at the end was also used in the very first Arma, Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis.

[@kierankennedy6971]

This is the type of SNL that reminds us why they’re still on air. Why can’t most skits be this good

*side note: My dad worked for Chef Boyardee. The Chef could remember my dad's name and was proud of himself for managing to remember a random employee's name. For months, he would have a smile every time he would do this. However, he called my dad the wrong name the first time and my dad didn't correct him. If your boss's boss's boss's boss likes you, you do not correct that dude.
