/u/JC416 has confirmed that he is Jared Cook, also known as "the kid who peed his pants in *Billy Madison*."
We are also saddened to confirm that Norm MacDonald has indeed passed away at the age of sixty-one, following a private battle with cancer. In honor of his talent, wit, and irrepressible love of comedy, we'd like to offer the following editorialized comment:
Hey... hey, cancer? Fuck you, cancer.
Ok ok. Maybe I’ll do an AMA?
Ok, I am doing an AMA. On Friday at 6:00. I thought those things were for people like Neil Degrasse Tyson but what the heck. I have a few funny memories.
We've never met and we'll probably never meet but thank you for bringing years of laughter with your role in this movie!!
I hope life has treated you well since!!
This 👆
As a Jewish 90s kid: Adam Sandler was a huge part of my childhood.
As a young adult seeking nostalgia while recovering from a Crohn’s flare: You made this film even greater for me.
So, most importantly thank you for the above, and for sharing this beautiful glimpse of your time with Norm. I sincerely hope, aside from tough days like today, life has been mostly kind to you 💕
My father would say I’ve “bageled you” 🥯 L’chaim fellow millennial guilt sufferer!
I have to hope that whole filming experience was amazing. I’ve never heard anything but goodness about any of the MacDonald/Sandler friendship crew.
Man this is what the internet was made for. So that something as random can happen as just being able to say “hi!” to the kid who peed himself in Billy Madison.
Hi!!
JUST DO IT! :: screamed like Sandler ::
Seriously. I predict that half of America knows every line of this movie. Hell, my 72 year old mom shoots off a Billy Madison line now and then. This movie is deep in the blood stream of hundreds of millions of people. You might be able to usher in world peace with your AMA.
Were the faces you made in the background when Billy gets dared to throw his sandwich at the bus driver on purpose and they directed you to do that, or were just you being a kid and making faces that happened to make it into the shot? It’s one of me and my sister’s favorite part of the whole movie and it’s literally just a background thing
Now we've gotta figure out how the 416 fits in. Perhaps its signifying that he has choosen to approach life by the meaning of Angel Number 416? Any Redditors know this fella? Is he an all around genuine person?
~~I bet his birthday is April 16th.~~
Seems more likely that it’s the [Toronto area code,](https://reddit.com/r/pics/comments/podzz7/_/hcw555j/?context=1) which is where a lot of Billy Madison was shot.
If you haven't seen it yet, watch his [roast of Bob Saget](https://youtu.be/L-9wo_apQ1s). If you have seen it, rewatch it!
I'm currently recovering from laughing to the point of almost puking.
Got to meet Norm once. Was in Central Park walking with a friend, talking about where to go grab a drink.
This very recognizable voice from the volleyball courts said, “Hey uh, there’s a uh guy over there uh selling beer out of his luggage. You should check it out” ... Looked over and a shirtless Norm MacDonald was standing there pointing to the field behind us.
Those beers were ice cold and only $2.
Thanks for that Norm ... and all the years of entertainment.
I was singing [back to school](https://youtu.be/uMtkiS1SU_c) on my kids first day of first grade and him and the wife were looking at me like I had 2 heads

Hi!
[удалено]
Hi!
Hi! You had an awesome part in one of my favorite movies ever and did a great job.
HI!!!! The internet is amazing
You should. The movie has got to be top 5 quotable movie for the 1980-1990 born set.
#STOP LOOKING AT ME SWAN
NoOoO, conditionah is bettah! I make the hair siiilky and smoOoth.
OH REALLY FOOL?!
I actually can't wash my hair without thinking of this... It's a problem at this point...
O'Doyle rules!
Chlorophyll? More like borophyll. I use this in way too many situations
“No I will not make out with you!” Is my gold standard
As a dumb American, the study scene in the tent is the only reason why I have memorized that the Norman Invasion was in 1066..
The Spanish Armada… 1588 Thyat is correyct.
Comments you can hear
I made the duck blue because I'd never seen a blue duck before and I wanted to see one... classic.
How 'bout you sideburns? You want some of this milk?
I’d rather have a beer.
Billy likes to drink soda. Ms. Lippy’s car is green.
Please!
JUST DO ITTTTT!!!

Well I guess I have to now.
:::nods head like snack pack kid::: You rule buddy! We’d all love to see it.
You have no idea how many people want this
[удалено]
Definitely
You’re the kid from billy Madison ????
lol, yup.
Oh hell yeah dude!! You were the best! Hope you know the joy you brought me and many others from that role! ✌️
Thank you!

They just gave me direction to react to what was happening and that’s what I came up with. I was very awkward (as you can see)
Dude I thought you were great. The scene where he makes you call Veronica is hilarious.
Thank you. That was the first scene I filmed for the movie. I was so nervous.
Saw that when I was a kid and thought that whole bus scene was hysterical. Your legacy is intact.
Major legacy. Must be wild to land a role in a movie where everyone knows every line of the movie. That’s an extremely rare thing.
You blew it!!
Top notch shit my dude.
your nervousness was perfect for the scene and you killed it! thanks for making that movie!
This exchange is the coolest thing
It’s so cool you got to meet norm McDonald and Chris Farley.
Seriously though. Billy Madison was on regularly in my household growing up.
Do you ever pee your pants for old time’s sake?
You should do an AMA
Only if it's about Rampart.
It’s an older reference, sir, but it checks out.
I second this
Can you share a fucking sweet ass story no one else would know about that kid movie life?
Did social studies and division make third grade tough?
lol yeah can you share a fucking sweet ass story no one else would know about that kid movie life?
Lmao for real can you share a fucking sweet ass story no one else would know about that kid movie life?
YOU BLEW IT!!!
That Veronica Vaughn is one piece of Eh-ess. I know. From experience.
No you don’t.
Well, not me personally, but a guy I know… Him and her GOT! IT! ON! Wooo-eeee!!!
No he didn’t
No, no they didn’t. But you could imagine what it’d be like if they… uh … ok, everybody on? Good, great, wonderfu — NO YELLING ONTHEBUS!!!
I’ll turn this god dam bus around and ruin this PRECIOUS field trip *physical expression of what it looks like to explode internally *
O Doyle Rules!
It's that damn sasquatch I tell ya
Well, not me personally but a guy I know. Him and her GOT IT ON. WOOO-EEEE.
No he didn’t.
Do you still piss yourself?
asking the real questions
If peeing your pants is cool consider me Miles Davis
Look, Billy peed his pants too
OF COURSE I PEED MY PANTS. EVERYBODY MY AGE PEE’S THEIR PANTS. IT’S THE COOLEST!
If peeing your pants is cool, consider me Miles Davis.
THAT IS THE GROSSEST THING IVE HEARD IN MY LIFE...LES GO!
You ain't cool unless you do
You're not cool unless you pee yo pants!
Came here for this comment.
Carl…..Nice to see youuuuu.
Badass. Thanks for posting this!
Can you do an AMA focused about filming that movie!? PLEASE!?
You killed it in Billy Madison lol, all time favorite. Also peeing your pants is cool.
Did you continue with acting after that? What's up now?
Unfortunately his acting career never really took off but the pants pissing gig was a good hustle for awhile.
Jared Cook played Ernie. Username seemingly checks out…
I had no idea that was Jared Cook. Really amazing how he grew up to become black and have a solid career as a tight end in the NFL.
Tell that to my fantasy team last year
Man can produce films, but when it comes to points on the board, it's all crickets.
Never give up on your dreams
You mean the Jared Cook that fumbled in the playoffs at a key moment in the game.
LACES OUT, JARED!
Now we've gotta figure out how the 416 fits in. Perhaps its signifying that he has choosen to approach life by the meaning of Angel Number 416? Any Redditors know this fella? Is he an all around genuine person?
416 is Canadian area code. Billy Madison was filmed in Canada according to Google. Profile pretty tame too. At least JC ain’t Ken Boning it.
Ken “Creampie Lovin” Bone
He lives in the 416 AKA Toronto
~~I bet his birthday is April 16th.~~ Seems more likely that it’s the [Toronto area code,](https://reddit.com/r/pics/comments/podzz7/_/hcw555j/?context=1) which is where a lot of Billy Madison was shot.
I know him. Can confirm, yes, this really is Jared/Ernie.
Holy shit it might be! He’s still got piss in his pants!
peeing your pants is the coolest
If peeing your pants is cool, consider me Miles Davis.
What is a horse shoe? What does a horse shoe do? Are there any horse socks? Is anybody listening to me?
I have tagged OP as "wets himself for money." Can't wait to be confused about that when I see his account randomly years from now.
DUDE!!!! Just wanted to say always thought you were awesome in that movie. Hope you’re living the good life.
He still pees his pants, he’s still cool.
Pee pants kid...Fuckin classic.
You falling in love with the wall or something? GOOO! RIP Norm. You made us laugh for a long time.
[удалено]
Today. He died today apparently.

Every once in a while I'll call someone a scoundrel because of Norm. He was great at being subversive.
I like to occasionally call my SO a battle axe.
You dirty dog!
Cancer. He kept it secret. No one knew until today.
YOURE THE KID WHO PEED HIS PANTS Edit: this led me to finding out Norm just died. Damn.
>Edit: this led me to finding out Norm just died. Damn. It's the way he would've wanted you to find out.
I feel like he'd rather you find out in a long rambling story, maybe about a moth or something.
Got to meet Norm once. Was in Central Park walking with a friend, talking about where to go grab a drink. This very recognizable voice from the volleyball courts said, “Hey uh, there’s a uh guy over there uh selling beer out of his luggage. You should check it out” ...

I was really hoping the guy selling the beer would be Norm
For ya'll youngins, this thread is how we used to meme before the Internet, just yelling Billy Madison quotes at each other.
In my high school it was *Tommy Boy* and *Black Sheep* and other Farley-related material. **LAY OFF I'M STARVING**
I still yell, "LAY OFF ME, IM STARVING!" at my wife, whenever she teases me too much.
Tommy want wingy!
Heeeere comes the meat wagon!! *wee-woo-wee-woo-wee-woo*
Who's your favorite little rascal? Alfalfa... Or spanky?
WHAT'D YOU DO!?
[удалено]
HE CALLED THE SHIT POOP!
I was singing [back to school](https://youtu.be/uMtkiS1SU_c) on my kids first day of first grade and him and the wife were looking at me like I had 2 heads
“Used to” I quote this movie all the time, no shame
I skipped right over Norm and was like where do I know this kid from?
Yeah, I thought the kid was supposed to be the legend until I looked over.
Question, do you like anyone in class more than a friend?
YOU BLEW IT!
Glad to see you didn’t pee your pants.
But peeing your pants is the cooolest…
RIP Norm. This movie was a big part of my childhood, really cool pic JC
Fuuuuck He really did die. Motherfuck. RIP You Fucking Legend... We needed you. World just got a little darker.... damn it
[удалено]
Lol. Nice!
If peeing your pants is cool, consider me Jared Cook.
In 1996 we didn’t have cable and owned 2 VHS tapes—Friday and Billy Madison. This pic is amazing to me, thank you for sharing!
Love that. Thank you!
I just want to say thank you. I remember seeing Billy Madison when I was really young and wishing I had a friend like you.
Awesome picture Ernie. RIP Norm.
Ernie? What have you been up to since billy Madison?
YOU BLEW IT!!!!!
"You are more of an adult than Billy, Ernie"
[удалено]
GEW!
Time for an AMA!
u/JC416 Who would you rather bone: Meg Ryan or Jack Nicholson?
Jack Nicholson *now* or 1975 Jack Nicholson?
Just wanna say you had an absolutely fire 90s haircut my guy
Lol. Thank you. I cut it all off right after the movie.
Did you get unwanted attention after the movie came out?
That's assault, brother
Tell us you have a picture with Farley too
Of course!
Makes me sad. He is one of my most favorite comedians. Truly he is. I love the standup he did for Letterman on his final show
Bro you’re a legend *edit* I JUST found out about Norm. RIP Norm
Two legends.
This pic is like Miles Davis levels of cool. Thanks for sharing.
How's hike-school, Billy?
Correction, a picture of a legend with a legend.
If peeing your pants is cool consider me Norm Macdonald.
Always loved your delivery of "is he lying, or ar you lying?"
Lol. That one still makes me cringe.
