As Fred Sanford character he always acted like he was having a heart attack "This is the big one! Elizabeth, I'm coming to join you!".
Foxx died of a heart attack later in his career on set of another show and people initially thought he was acting.
He had been angry from being pulled out of an Entertainment Tonight interview and was rehearsing a scene with Della Reese when he died.
Another weird thing about Redd is he was only 49 years old when he began Sanford & Son.
Always loved Redd Foxx, great show and he always made me laugh. Surprised he looked that old at only 49 years old.
RIP Redd and Bruce Hampton
