5. Redd Foxx – “I’m coming home”
(during heart attack on set) Redd Foxx, the legendary comedian of Sanford and Son, collapsed from a heart attack on set in 1991. He uttered these words as he was rushed away, thinking it was part of a prank.
The irony of his final line—spoken during what everyone initially thought was a joke—still moves fans who loved his larger-than-life energy.
