Watch Jon Stewart Take a Chair to the Gut While Dancing

 


When former Daily Show host Jon Stewart said he had no regrets about retiring in the midst of Donald Trump‘s ascendance, he really wasn’t kidding. Besides, now that the Emmy Award-winning comedian no longer has to run a nightly show lampooning American politics and its media coverage, he can spend time with his family.

Like getting chaired in the stomach by his son while dancing to Drake‘s “Started from the Bottom” for a good cause, as TIME noted on Wednesday. Stewart’s brief dancing video was posted to Twitter by WWE, since it was a direct response to wrestler Triple H‘s challenge to participate in the Just Keep Dancing campaign initiated by Ellen DeGeneres.

This latest social media viral challenge is meant to raise awareness (and money) for pediatric cancer research — following DeGeneres’ interview with Braylon Beam, a six-year-old cancer patient who dances to cope with chemotherapy.
