Henry Winkler Busts Out Strenuous Fonzie Dance On 'Tonight Show'

Henry Winkler gave “Happy Days ” fans what they wanted before he even sat down to his interview on “The Tonight Show ” Tuesday.

As the band struck up “Hava Nagila,” the 73-year-old Winkler busted out his moves from a dance he famously did as the Fonz on “Happy Days” decades ago.

The moves are pretty strenuous, but heyyyyyyy, he’s the Fonz, aka Fonzie, aka Arthur Fonzarelli. The leather-jacketed ladies’ man became a popular character on the 1974-84 comedy series originally set in the 1950s.

Winkler was perhaps feeling light on his feet because of his recent breakthrough as a first-time Emmy winner for “Barry.” But he’ll forever be the Fonz.
