00:00Robin felt partially responsible for not having done enough to save his friend Belushi.
00:06So when he entered the hospital room for Christopher Reeve, he dressed up as a German doctor, he had a thick accent,
00:13he insisted that Christopher Reed turn over and have an exam, a proctology exam.
00:19Reeve was really, really surprised, he couldn't figure it out then.
00:23He finally realised this was his mate, this was Robin Williams, and the two of them had a great laugh.

00:36He later credited this hilarious prank with making him feel that life could still be worth living.
