Jim is the only person I’ve ever seen in my life who can completely look like a different person just by moving his face
-
It took guts of steel to come on national television and show pure talent like this
-
All of his impressions are good, but the way he literally transforms into Eastwood right in front of your eyes is amazing.
-
I love his whole “getting into character” deal at the beginning. Absolutely genius
-
This man mastered every muscle in his face. That is freaky how Jim Carrey's face is simply a template for him to subtly change into somebody else
-
Carrey didn't do impressions, he did caricatures. Such a genius
-
Helluva debut. It was really cool seeing (hearing) the audience wonder what they were witnessing and it morphing from confusion and discomfort to joyful hysterics.
-
Imagine no one knows who Jim Carrey is at the time. This performance is so much tougher when you are an unknown to the audience.
-
Jim Carrey's facial expressions and total control of body language is beyond amazing
-
before Jim Carrey, I would have never thought this was even anatomically possible
-
Incredible muscle control. When he transforms into Clint Eastwood before our eyes, that's always been my favorite.
-
I swear him and Robin Williams were and are the most energetic, charismatic, entertaining funny men of our time!! Just legendary!!!
-
He was 21 years old here. So much talent at such a young age. Simply incredible…I think this kid is going places
-
Jim Carey's impression of Clint Eastwood is unforgettable!
-
The number of movies he would go on to make from this point on is unfathomable. And the impact he would have on the movie industry is irreplaceable. As well as the amount of laughs people still enjoy to this day because of him. He's a true legend! 💯🔥💯
-
He got that "you did good kid" sign from Johnny. Probably the most thrilling moment of his life. It could totally make your career.
-
You can feel him winning over the audience and it’s amazing
-
The way Carrey is able to contort himself is nothing short of amazing. He creates live action cartoons on stage. A legend was born here.
-
Johnny Carson was the best talk man in the world. Always gave a hand to raise the people in whom he believed, and he believed in a lot of people.
-
Fabulous talent. Thanks to Johnny Carson for featuring Jim!
