00:00You need more power, Jim. Don't be afraid. You had it all along. I never did it. I am not at fault.

00:07Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 Robin Williams bloopers.

00:13I know the seagulls. They're friends. Ah, it's mine! Oh, wow! Almost got the eel.

00:19For this list, we're looking at the finest examples of bloopers from the comedian's

00:23illustrious career. From film to television,

00:27Williams' stellar acting credits include many great outtakes of his unforgettable performances.

00:32Did we forget a notable Robin Williams blooper? Let us know in the comments below.

00:36Number 10. Trapped in the Floor. Jumanji. Jumanji is able to capture much of Robin

00:42Williams' effervescence and childlike wonder. This extends to the film's blooper reel,

00:47which features many scenes of him letting out that bottled-up energy.

00:50Finding himself trapped in the floor, he and Bonnie Hunt pass the time making each other laugh.

00:55I'm Catholic. Oh, is that bad? No, good in a bad way. Good bad, you know.

01:02Yeah, I'm Protestant. Episcopal, that's Catholic light.

01:05Given his precarious position, it's amazing that the performer can be as quick while in

01:10an uncomfortable spot. Williams and Hunt crack jokes about religion, and lighten the mood even

01:16as the sequence carries on with the two of them in close proximity. Do I have that effect on you?

01:22No, no. What?

01:24It's something else. What is it?

01:25Nothing. It's not Catholic, is it?

01:27The comedian even delivers a scream as a joke that makes his co-star break.

01:33What? I just felt I should do that.

01:37Every step of the way, the lead finds a way to lighten up the set.

01:41Number 9. Playing with Dinosaurs. Mrs. Doubtfire. In Mrs. Doubtfire,

01:46Robin Williams' character Daniel Hillard holds a tremendous talent as a voice actor,

01:51but finds himself working a behind-the-scenes job at a TV station. This blooper finds him

01:56walking onto the set of a children's show and letting his improv skills run wild.

02:00Allowing Williams to ramble with props,

02:02this particular outtake lets the actor do what he does best.

02:06Don't be afraid. He will eat anything that walks, but not vegetables.

02:11Because vegetables are eaten by Angie the Apatosaur.

02:17A pot. Wow.

02:18He uses multiple takes to play with the dinosaurs on display,

02:22crafting spot-on impressions of people like Marlon Brando in the process.

02:38You get the feeling that he could easily go on forever talking about each and every different

02:42Jurassic creature. The actor even sneaks in a hilarious Elvis bit for good measure.

02:49Number 8. The Cow. Patch Adams.

03:01What happens when you put a cow together on screen with Robin Williams?

03:05In this clip from Patch Adams, viewers get to find out in a hilarious blooper.

03:21His cup of coffee becomes a point of interest for the animal, and the actor goes along with it.

03:35As the cow chomps at his cup, the comedian cannot help but lose it.

03:40There's no way anybody can hold back a smile after seeing the likes of this

03:43brilliant star breaking into fits of laughter.

03:46Building off of the chaos of the moment, the entire sequence crumbles, and all for the better.

03:58It's a testament to the scene that it could render the normally verbose actor speechless.

04:03Number 7. Teddy Roosevelt and the Animals. Night at the Museum.

04:07Robin Williams is the unlikely and surprisingly well-suited actor to play Teddy Roosevelt.

04:20Playing the reanimated president in Night at the Museum,

04:23the performer and his co-stars are at odds with a host of animal friends.

04:27One blooper has Roosevelt talking to Ben Stiller's caretaker,

04:30while the former's horse turns the background into a stable.

04:43The same problem happens when Williams has a capuchin monkey on his shoulders.

04:47In both cases, it is especially funny to watch him react to the furry friends relieving themselves.

04:52The comedian capitalizes on the moment in the way only he could.

05:06Number 6. The Cadaver.

05:08The animal friends and the caretaker are at odds with a host of animal friends,

05:12while the former's horse turns the background into a stable.

05:17Despite the mixed reception of the final product,

05:20Patch Adams has more than a few entertaining bloopers to sift through.

05:24This one involves the lead character and his classmates preparing to inspect a cadaver.

05:37Seizing the moment, Williams releases the tension of the scene with his own ad-libs.

05:42He even uses the props as a punchline in gags that reduce the cast to tears.

05:59This includes commenting on an apparent fart machine that's been hidden on the set.

06:04Other actors in the film, including the drama legend Philip Seymour Hoffman,

06:08are reduced to giggles by the star.

06:13Number 5. One Man Show.

06:19Mork & Mindy.

06:20Mork & Mindy was the show that properly introduced Robin Williams to the world.

06:25His alien character allowed for many zany comedy scenes, including this whirlwind achievement.

06:31One such blooper features Williams doing a one-man show,

06:34doing the work of multiple actors in one moment.

06:43The entire monologue ramps up,

06:50with him changing voices that harken back to old movies and characters like the Lone Ranger.

07:04His stunning performance could have easily tired any other performer,

07:08but this clip clearly shows he is at the top of his game from a young age.

07:18By the end of his rant, his co-star looks back in astonishment and amusement.

07:24Number 4. Cracking Up De Niro.

07:26Awakenings.

07:27Penny Marshall's Awakenings is a mostly dramatic work following Robin Williams'

07:31doctor as he helps patients with catatonia.

07:38Even with the more serious subject matter, he still finds time to break the ice on set.

07:45This clip shows a rare moment for Robert De Niro to start giggling.

07:57Even for a more serious scene in the movie,

08:00the star sneaks his natural comedic charm into any situation given the opportunity.

08:05De Niro can't help but chuckle along as Williams goes off script with a completely different voice.

08:16It takes a special kind of performer to make the usually serious actor laugh,

08:20but the comedian rises to the occasion.

08:23Number 3. Bringing Genie to Life.

08:25Aladdin.

08:26Aladdin became a classic thanks to the work of Robin Williams

08:30and the subsequent work done by imaginative technicians.

08:3510,000 years will give you such a crick in the neck.

08:40Since the animators allowed him to improvise lines,

08:43this would lead to many of his ideas ending up on the cutting room floor.

08:47Those bloopers show his range with an endless collection of voices and mannerisms.

08:57Animators would try to capture his physical performance as the genie,

09:01making the final product feel even more expressive.

09:04These clips only serve to show the relentless work ethic

09:07that went into his creation of the beloved character.

09:17Through his impersonations and quick thinking,

09:19Williams fills these outtakes with all the trademark humor that ended up in the finished movie.

09:30Number 2. Robin and Elmo.

09:33Sesame Street.

09:34Robin Williams could make even his appearances on children's television wholly entertaining.

09:39On an episode of Sesame Street,

09:40the actor came face to face with none other than the famous Elmo.

09:54He tells his little red friend about all the uses for a stick,

09:58never relenting with his endlessly speedy mind.

10:01Elmo doesn't even need to respond,

10:03as his scene partner lights up the screen with some great ad-libs that couldn't make the final show.

10:17This all culminates with the puppeteer messing up their lines,

10:20earning a well-timed comeback from the comedian.

10:32It's all in good fun,

10:34and reveals the amazingly free atmosphere of the Sesame Street set.

10:57Good Morning Vietnam.

10:59Playing the real-life DJ Adrian Cronauer,

11:02Robin Williams gets a chance to infuse the role

11:04with all the manic comedy he honed during his stand-up days.

11:18This leads to several bloopers of Williams transforming into a fast-talking radio presenter.

11:24Performing the role he was always born to play,

11:26the comedian has every line sing as he makes absurd jokes about the Pope

11:31and even casts a celebrity Disney film.

11:43You get the feeling that in another life,

11:44he could have easily fit into Cronauer's position given his skill on the microphone.

11:48Any of these moments could have made it into the final cut,

11:51making them standouts in the star's career.
