Chris Farley was an American comedian and actor known for his energetic and physical comedy style. He gained widespread popularity in the early 1990s as a cast member on Saturday Night Live (SNL). His larger-than-life personality, combined with his wild physical antics, made him a standout on the show. He created iconic characters, including Matt Foley, a motivational speaker who "lives in a van down by the river."
Farley also starred in several popular movies, including Tommy Boy (1995), Black Sheep (1996), and Beverly Hills Ninja (1997). His comedy often revolved around his physical size, exaggerated movements, and self-deprecating humor.
Unfortunately, Farley struggled with substance abuse throughout his life, which led to his untimely death at the age of 33 in 1997. Despite his brief career, he left a lasting impact on the world of comedy, and his work continues to be celebrated by fans and comedians alike.
