        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Jerry Stiller</strong> was behind <strong>one of the most famous bloopers on &#8220;Seinfeld&#8221;</strong> &#8212; and co-stars Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Jason Alexander still couldn&#8217;t stop laughing about it recently.</p><p>Stiller, <strong>whose death was announced Monday</strong>, played the hysterical rage-filled dad of Alexander&#8217;s hapless character, George, and in the 1996 behind-the-scenes episode of the classic NBC sitcom, he&#8217;s talking to Louis-Dreyfus&#8217; Elaine about his son suddenly turning bad boy and getting arrested to impress a woman.</p><p>&#8220;My George isn&#8217;t clever enough to hatch a scheme like this,&#8221; Stiller&#8217;s character, Frank Costanza, tells Elaine, who shoots back, &#8220;You got that right.&#8221;</p><p>Frank Costanza then shouts, &#8220;What the hell does that mean?!&#8221; &#8212; at which Louis-Dreyfus breaks out of character and dissolves in uncontrollable laughter before saying, &#8220;That means whatever the hell you want it to mean.&#8221;</p><p>This prompts Stiller to deliver the now-famous line, &#8220;You want a piece of me?!&#8221; &#8212; which he has to repeat as Louis-Dreyfus again erupts in giggles.</p><p>Louis-Dreyfus and Alexander laughed <strong>as they reminisced about the moment</strong> for an online fundraiser last week before Stiller&#8217;s death.</p><p>Louis-Dreyfus said Stiller, the dad of actor Ben Stiller, would look to the sky while on camera when he had trouble remembering his lines because he was nervous &#8212; and the gesture only added to his character&#8217;s hilarity.</p><p>Alexander said his on-screen dad also used his frustration at having trouble with his lines to make his character more angry, which added to the humor, too.</p><figure id="attachment_5249362"  class="wp-caption aligncenter"><strong><noscript><img data- data-src="/uploads/2020/05/jerry-stiller-seinfeld-2.jpg" class="lazyload" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==" /><noscript><img  data-src="/uploads/2020/05/jerry-stiller-seinfeld-2.jpg" /></noscript></noscript><img class="lazyload" src='data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20210%20140%22%3E%3C/svg%3E' data- data-src="/uploads/2020/05/jerry-stiller-seinfeld-2.jpg" /></strong><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span>Estelle Harris, Jason Alexander and Jerry Stiller on &#8220;Seinfeld&#8221;</span><span class="credit">©Columbia Tristar/Courtesy Everett Collection</span></figcaption></figure><p>&#8220;That is where a lot of [Frank Costanza&#8217;s] internal rage would come from,&#8221; Alexander said, chuckling.</p><p>Ben Stiller said his dad, 92, died of natural causes.</p>]]></content:encoded>
