90s Memes

Sorry, you're right, he is British. But he became globally famous through Hollywood in the '90s, so he's very well-known here in America. He's also really good at hiding his British accent, so most people (like me) forget he's originally from England.

EDIT: In 2012, he had a stroke that nearly paralyzed him. He now gets around with a wheelchair and struggles to speak. It's a damn shame seeing a brilliant physical comedian reduced to near-paralysis in his old age. He's hardly recognizable nowadays.
