Ray Romano tells Jimmy Kimmel hilarious story about losing his flashlight and finding it in an odd place
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Ray Romano recently graced the stage of 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' and had the host as well as the audience in stitches with his uproarious tale about losing and then rediscovering his trusty bedtime flashlight.
The comedian narrated how he was in bed about to read a book when he realized that he couldn't find his flashlight even after searching the nightstand, under the bed, and even the floor, only to discover it in a rather odd place.
Ray Romano's flashlight odyssey: From fridge to ceiling fan
Recalling searching for the flashlight, Ray Romano said, "I'm starting to get frustrated. I'm going through every drawer, every cabinet. I'm even looking in the fridge."
At this point, Kimmel asked if he had checked the most obvious place, the bedside table. "I did!" insisted Romano, adding, "I looked everywhere."
Finally, the comedian decided to give up and go to bed without reading. But as he was lying in bed, he noticed something out of the corner of his eye and found that his flashlight was stuck in the ceiling fan.
"I don't know how it got there," expressed Romano, continuing, "I must have thrown it up there in my sleep."
No wonder, Kimmel and the audience burst out laughing as Romano noted he eventually managed to get the flashlight down, revealing that he still doesn't know how it got up there.
"I'm just glad I found it," said the 'Ice Age' star, noting, "I would have been lost without it."

"He's just sitting there, crying," said Romano, adding, "And my wife is trying to be patient but she's starting to get frustrated."
Finally, his wife decided to take a different approach and told their son to close his eyes and imagine that he was riding a bike.
Romano remarked, "And it worked! He opened his eyes and started pedaling. He was riding a bike in no time." The comedian said that he's not sure how his wife did it but that she's a miracle worker.
