asked on

letterman footage

In this article:


the author says:

He became more openly caustic as his comedy took a sadistic turn. One night, after his “Late Show” was whipped in the ratings by both “The Tonight Show” and “Nightline,” his rage visibly surfaced.

A comedy bit called for a life-size Letterman doll to sit in the guest’s chair. Seemingly on the spur of the moment, Letterman punched the doll — to much audience laughter.

The laughs continued as he landed a few more blows. And then the 580-seat theater went silent when Letterman fell into a frenzy of punching and slapping his plastic alter ego.

Obviously, something was wrong with Dave.


I'd really like to find footage of this incident--of Letterman going crazy on his likeness.

No real reason, other than curiosity.  He says the crowd laughed, then went silent, becoming awkward and weird.  I'd really like to see it for myself.

Been searching the web and YouTube.  I just can't find it.  Can you?

Thanks
