Jack Palance performed one-armed push-ups on the Oscar stage at age 73 after winning Best Supporting Actor for City Slickers at the 64th Academy Awards in 1992. He was responding to jokes made by host Billy Crystal about his age. Palance had previously been nominated twice in the 1950s but never won. His impromptu physical demonstration became one of the most memorable Oscar moments. Billy Crystal continued referencing the push-ups throughout the broadcast. #Oscars #JackPalance #CitySlickers #Fi

Repost from @doubleimpactpodcast • Jack Palance wins the Oscar for best supporting actor for City Slickers 38 years after his previous nomination for Shane. Shane was the first film an 8 year old Billy Crystal saw, and the reason he cast Jack in City Slickers. The circle of life. Or something. . . . . #jackpalance #billycrystal #oscars #oscarspeech #legend #iconic #alltime #hollywood #fitspo #cityslickers | Dexter Hall
