Comedian and director Mel Brooks stopped by The Tonight Show to reminisce about his dear friend and colleague Gene Wilder, who passed away earlier this week at age 83.*

"He was sick, and I knew it...I expected he would go, but when it happens, it's still tremendous and it's a big shock," Brooks said. "I'm still reeling from ** more Gene...I can't call him. He was such a wonderful part of my life."

Brooks told hilarious stories and memories about Wilder, and recounted about how their collaborations for films like The Producers, Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein came about.*
