Another funny bit of spontaneous dance from a surprisingly limber-for-his-age Groucho, this time doing the polka, with a few signature Captain Spaulding leg kicks thrown in for good measure.

![You Bet Your Life #59-11 Tor Johnson [Incomplete] (Chair, Dec 3, 1959)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/2_XO0_iDPDE/mqdefault.jpg "You Bet Your Life #59-11 Tor Johnson [Incomplete] (Chair, Dec 3, 1959)
For reasons I will never understand, this episode has been impossible to find. Its not a lost show Ed Wood aficionados have apparently been passing this episode around for years but all Ive been able to get my grubby little hands on is this incomplete copy in horrific video quality. Im still grateful to have it, though prior to this, all that was available from this show was a 3 minute clip. At least we get to see (sort of) the full Tor Johnson segment here, including the quiz!
If anyone has a complete and/or better quality copy of this one, please let me know!
COUPLE #1: Gail Van Der Most / Mike Dini [NOT INCLUDED]
COUPLE #2: Tor Johnson / Stassa Damascus
