To this day, this is a quote from David Graf's Wikipedia: "His funeral was attended by many, many wonderful cast members from the Police Academy films."
Notice how Tackleberry is the only one who doesn't duck at 0:35. Not only because he is a badass, but because he knows that the gus is not yet cycled, and thus it doesn't have a loaded shell in the chamber.
Tackleberry's backstory is that hes a Marine. He didn't break discipline even though a weapon was pointing at him and the fact that yea, won't fire again until pumped.
0:37 I love the small detail of Tacklebery not ducking as everyone else, since as weapons expert, he knows that shotgun won't fire again untill it's pumped. Edit: He is also very overconfident and "trusting" in guns, that's why he sometimes disregards some gun safety stuff very casually.
I will never ever ever grow tired of watching David Graf as Eugene Tackleberry. He absolutely steals this 'little' scene and makes it so much more. One of the most perfectly cast roles in the history of cinema. RIP, good sir.
0:38 Tackleberry doesn't even duck down XD Mostly because he knows that the shotgun hadn't ejected the spent shell and therefore wouldn't fire even if the trigger was pulled at that moment.
It really doesn't matter. The default rule #1 in gun safety is that the gun is ALWAYS loaded, and you never assume otherwise. Thus hitting the deck is a perfectly rational response by the gang.
you can say that again I have them o DVD the whole lot my Nan always said to me ALLWAYS witchi a comedy movie's if you feeling down and out it ALLWAYS make you feel better and that's the best Advice She ever gave me and I was 7 way back then and THAT was the best Advice She ever told me I'm 46 now and I still use that Advise today in 2018 and I allso tell my mates to do the same thing especially the female one's because in today's world females seems to listen to you more than male's to with this kind of Advice anyway
I just love how Tackleberry has that confidence when he goes “Come with me.” to the instructor like in an action movie before he hauls ass off on his own. 😂
When I was a kid I looked at the instructor as an obstacle for the recruits. As an adult I have a lot of sympathy for him considering what he had to work with.
I heard someone say 'Come with me' today and I totally thought of this scene. I was sad when I heard he passed away. He was one of my favorite characters in Police Academy.
It's eerie how the same year (1984) the Terminator was released and almost the same line was also used by Kyle Reese to Sarah Connor "Come with me if you want to live!"
David Graf will always be the funniest of all the actors in the franchise. Huge and eternal respect to all the actors who gave us a happy and carefree childhood!

The amount of unshouldered shotgun use still irritates me to this day. Luckily, the sight of Tackleberry rampaging through the course and screaming like a lunatic more than makes up for it.
@Todes zauberer778 try that with slugs from a short barrel. shotgun will want to fly out of your hands or want to break your bones in the hand if tight on a pistol grip.
It still makes me laugh every time I watch this scene it was so freaking hilarious both with that one guy who shot the cardboard cutout of the girl with a balloon and causing everyone to duck when he turned around and then when Tackleberry takes the gun and then starts shooting everything screaming like a lunatic and Lt. Harris's reaction and the look on his face thinking 'God Help Us All with this Guy'.
Humor aside, how about Hightower's awareness and accuracy though? He was SPOT ON in his responses here. I've seen videos of a lot of real cops responding too slowly or cautiously compared to this. Hightower probably was the best in the whole group, and would make a great cop in real life.
Yea I would probably assign cop with the bad trigger finger desk duty as that way he won't be a danger to anyone, just make sure he's always on driving duty when he team up with some like Hightower, or make sure he's assigned to dispatch as with a bad trigger finger like that I wouldn't trust him with a gun.
with rumors of an 8th film being planned, I really hope they don't re-cast Tackleberry and Hightower. Bubba Smith and David Graf defined their respective characters that we've come and known.
0:34 Tackleberry was such a gun lover that he was the only cop who didn't cover up when the shooter was pointing backwards...because he knew the shotgun couldn't be accidentally fired
To the people who passed away my thoughts are with your family you may be gone but not forgotten the police academy movies are still a classic to watch after all these years later thanks for a good laugh and the memories appreciate you guys thanks job well done you should be proud ! Joe
0:35 I actually saw a guy do this while (attempting) to shoot skeet off the back of a cruise ship; right AFTER he told them he was a firearms "expert".
Just a great classic movie after theses years later to the actors and actresses who passed away my thoughts are with your family you may be gone but not forgotten still going strong keep the laughs coming love and appreciate you guys thanks you guys rock way to go thanks ! Joe
Somehow, Tack is efficient like 100 policemen! Notice! When Leslie Barbara turn on the group with rifle gun the only one don't go down is Tack! Because he knows Leslie don't reload it! Tack you are a LEGEND!!!!!

Hey that is an interesting detail. I noticed he didn't duck. (Saw this movie when it came out). Just thought it was because he was so "macho".
I noticed another detail of Jones not ducking but opening the door and hiding inside the building at the same time.
He doesn't take no for an answer lol
He even shakes his head slightly as everybody ducks. He's like "Ugh, noobs."
He's too busy fantasizing about what to do when it's his turn.
1:29 Mahoney starts smiling as soon as Tackleberry takes off. He knew what was about to happen.
Hightower- Army
Leslie-Airforce
Thompson-Navy
Tackleberry-Marines
That was actually true. When he first arrived he had a Marine recon shirt and a small Marines flag.
Tackleberry was my favorite.

"come with Me" pure genius
Tackleberry has what today you may call CoD syndrome.
He didn't even duck when Barbara swing the shotgun towards everybody.

What?
I have cod syndrome
The pure joy in Tackleberrry eyes was priceless

+Indianajones2211 That's funny because I always caught that, too. He knew better. They wrote such a great character in Tackleberry!
They truly did! R.I.P David Graf
I never thought of that. Very clever. =)
It really doesn't matter. The default rule #1 in gun safety is that the gun is ALWAYS loaded, and you never assume otherwise. Thus hitting the deck is a perfectly rational response by the gang.
Never said it wasn't. Anybody with common sense would have ducked in that scenario. Tackleberry just doesn't give a damn haha
These movies were some of the best comedy ever made. I have watched them all so often that i know some of the dialogue by heart, and still enjoy them.

I could only stand the first one. Maybe the second. Then they started getting ridiculous.
God I miss that crazy lunatic, he'll always be remembered as the measuring stick of the police academy franchise 😂 RIP tackleberry

When I was a kid I looked at the instructor as an obstacle for the recruits. As an adult I have a lot of sympathy for him considering what he had to work with.
In the first movie, Harris was a competent instructor, although not a good person. They flanderized him in the subsequent movies.
"come with me" epic!
Tackleberry needed his own spin-off.
Hi kinda did. I think the TV Series Sledge Hammer was loosely based on his character.
I heard someone say 'Come with me' today and I totally thought of this scene. I was sad when I heard he passed away. He was one of my favorite characters in Police Academy.

The officer in charge of the test says "come with me" to everyone but Tackleberry tells the officer in charge to come with him which is epic as it is.

I love Tackleberry's enthusiasm.
Tackleberry was my favorite character instantly. Love how the first villain comes flying apart from behind. Awesome.
RIP Tackleberry.
Even now we call a cop who is a gun afficianado--Tackleberry.
True, when I was in the Academy, the PT guys were like "you aren't a tackleberry, are you?"
I can attest to this. Even my own family calls me that on occasion.
I love this part Tackleberry is awesome.
Seth Carlow Yeah he is, too damn funny, lol
You could see they were all having a good time during the filming of this scene they couldn’t help but laugh
This movie was just so damn good. Thank you dad for showing it to me.

Are u still there
Tackleberry finally could show what he's capable of and enjoy what he's best at. :D
RIP Tackleberry would have been an outstanding Law Enforcement Officer no doubt
Tackleberry was my favorite in the movie, so damn funny, he had many great scenes that I laugh so much at!

Tackleberry must have 'Nam PTSD or 80s movie wannabe badassery.
Tackleberry was the best character in the whole series.
@1.03, the moment Tackleberry had been living for, Lol!
Tackleberry is by far the best part of this movie.
That was such a fun series.
They don’t make great movies like this anymore
Tackleberry's a madman. The kind of madman you want on your team.
Sure as hell dont want him on the opposite team.
Ah man, how I would have loved to see Tacklebery on the bayonet range.
This movie's one of the reasons why the 80s was the shiznit!!
#IMissThe80s
with rumors of an 8th film being planned, I really hope they don't re-cast Tackleberry and Hightower. Bubba Smith and David Graf defined their respective characters that we've come and known.
Thankfully we were graced from an 8th travesty.
Hey bro 😀😀 how old are u 🤣🤣😃😃😃
Tackleberry is epic character in history of Cinema
0:34 Tackleberry was such a gun lover that he was the only cop who didn't cover up when the shooter was pointing backwards...because he knew the shotgun couldn't be accidentally fired
That shotgun it's to small for Hightower..
That was a pistol in the hands of Hightower.
He's got the kind of build where he could run and gun with a Barret .50
We need more cops like Hightower and Tackleberry
Imagine how scared shitless criminals would be.
what a funny guy, between this clip and the firing range scene were just pure genius by David Graf R.I.P
To the people who passed away my thoughts are with your family you may be gone but not forgotten the police academy movies are still a classic to watch after all these years later thanks for a good laugh and the memories appreciate you guys thanks job well done you should be proud ! Joe
sadly this movie,REVENGE OF THE NERDS, and PORKYS could not have been made today. 80's comedies were GOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PORKY’S was absolutely hilarious 😂😂 Thanks for that…need to go watch it again now 😂😂😂😂😂
Is it me or anyone else thinks that the background music throughout this portion of the movie is epic?

Gotta love tackleberry!
Tackle berry- loves gun play and he goes out of control.
The days were so beautiful and wonderful 🇰🇼💙🌻 I didn't think they would go so quickly oh God
David Graf Aka Tackleberry Really Knew His Guns Especially That Gun He Had Was 73 Magnum
D
YEAH chamberered in 407 rimbuck!
Everyone talks about Tacklebery but Hightower was absolutely surgical with the shotty.
What I love is in the background as Mahoney is starting to smile while Harris is screaming at Tackleberry thinking "Yeah here we go!" 😂
All the actors in the background laughing their asses off! Lol

Took 11 years to get to my reccomend
We needed officer Tackleberrys in Uvalde Texas.. but all we got was the Keystone Cops
I *love* the scene!!! Only Tuck doesn't duck, he's a gun nut, he knows shotgun you have to reload:)))
Tackleberry was simply the best part of this franchise.
to bad that Leslie Barbara didn't return in the other movie's. I loved this guy!!
TA-CKLE-BE-RAYYYYY!!!!! lmfao!!!
Tacklebery gives me Brennan from College Humor vibes, I love it.
Tack was awesome with his presence of mind
Loved that guy in "The Closer". Didn't realize he had played a cop before
I've already watched this video and I still likes to watch it again
