Bobcat Goldthwait – The Tonight Show With Jay Leno
One of the most unusual bannings on our list has to be comedian Bobcat Goldthwaite. In 1994, during his appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, he shocked everyone by suddenly pouring lighter fluid on the couch and igniting it, causing it to burst into flames. The unexplainably bizarre act caused Goldthwaite to be banned from The Tonight Show, and he had to pay almost $4,000 in damages.

One can only speculate what compelled him to vandalize the set and jeopardize the safety of everyone present.
