Stephen Furst
Fun Fact: The scene where Bluto smashes a bottle over his head to cheer up his friend Flounder took eighteen takes for the reason that Stephen Furst couldn’t stop laughing. Oh, and do you remember the female clerk? The one who Flounder bought the marbles from? Well, that’s his real-life wife.

Furst went on to star in other movies like ‘Babylon 5’ (1994) and ‘The Dream Team’ (1989). He died on June 16, 2017, in Moorpark, California, USA at the age of 63. Furst credits Babylon 5 with saving his life because he’s a longtime diabetic whose kidneys failed through the show. A fan who loved his character heard of his health problems and donated a kidney! The man wanted to save him from dialysis and a likely early death!
