Sledge Hammer Stops a Jumper! 😱💥

The 80s were wild—watch Sledge Hammer “save” a jumper with his .44 Magnum in this hilarious clip from Sledge Hammer! S1E5! Perfect for fans of retro comedy and 80s cop shows—like, share, and comment your favorite Sledge moment!

Sledge Hammer! is a 1986-1988 cult classic that parodies gritty 80s cop dramas with absurd humor. David Rasche stars as Inspector Sledge Hammer, a comically unhinged detective who loves his .44 Magnum more than anything (he even talks to it!), paired with his no-nonsense partner, Dori Doreau (Anne-Marie Martin). Created by Alan Spencer as a satirical riff on Dirty Harry, the show’s over-the-top antics—like Hammer’s “shoot first, think never” motto—made it a gem of 80s satire. Fun fact: the series finale famously blew up the city to avoid cancellation, but fans got a second season anyway! A must-watch for retro comedy lovers.
