Richard Lewis.

A great friend of Candid Camera, Richard Lewis, died Feb. 27. Here is a Then & Now sequence highlighting two of Richard's contributions to our show. In the first clip, Richard was CAUGHT on Candid Camera when he was in high school. In the second clip, Richard tried doing the same routine for us.

Rip Richard Lewis . Class act.

[@hcutter]

Well, how often has THAT happened. From unsuspecting victim to celebrity Candid Camera trickster. RIP Richard. You will be missed.

[@garywanamaker2253]

Love it that was hilarious

[@sadaghian]

thank you so much for keeping the original aspect ratio

[@deztroyer76]

Jeez. You really gotta find something better to do with your time than constantly commenting on aspect ratios.

[@kelleymanning1137]

Thanks for the laughs Richard. Rest in peace.

I saw the original Candid Camera episode when it aired in the 1960s. My family often talked about that episode over the years, laughing all over again at this obviously bright kid who was visibly stunned by the test results. What a joy it was to find out later that he became a very successful comedian! Good for you, Richard! We will miss you. And all you kids out there who are told you are destined for very little -- don't believe it!

Oh my God, this is spectacular.

If it was up to me I would have had the career counselor strongly suggest to a student to pursue a career in being a restaurant mascot. You know, the one that stands on a busy street corner in a costume and waves at automobiles, shakes hands with pedestrians, and holds up a sign announcing the restaurant's special sale.

Wow, the last two guys look like they could be related 😮

[@tameimpala37]

Manufacturing waste disposals sounds promising!

[@prashantnegi007]

RIP

[@captainredpill1782]

This video brings back high school memories. It was the other way around, though, in that the counselors didn't do an evaluation of my talents but asked me what I intended for a career. I responded with a straight face, "I would like to pursue a career in ditch digging." She believed me and started rummaging through some files until she said couldn't find anything for such manual labor. It was then that I told her that I was joking.

[@tamaveirene]

Sad news and sincere condolences to his family and loved ones, and all his work colleagues 🕯➕️🕯😢🌹🕊🕊🕊

[@onelittlelamb4030]

They could have made this funnier…

Americans could really use Candid Camera III now, for sure.
