I remember hearing that Sylvester Stallone kept the red-eared sliders, Cuff and Link, from the original Rocky movie as pets. Did a quick Google search and found out that was false, they are still owned by the pet shop owner that originally lent them although Sly did reunite with them very recently for a photo op. Regardless I still think it's cool that animals from an older movie are still alive and well. In 1976 they were just teeny babies, now they're in their late 40's and are HUGE!

About 20 years ago I was looking at a Victorian house for sale in San Francisco. Turns out it was one of Nicholas Cage's homes, and he was selling it. The entire house was remodeled inside in a wild, fantasy style, including a huge fireplace mantel made from copper and shaped to look like a dragon's head with the mouth positioned where the fire was lit. Upstairs at the top of the staircase was a gigantic cage built for (if I remember correctly) his monitor lizards that he kept. The enclosure was enormous, and basically ran the length of the hallway so you had to walk past them in order to reach any of the bedrooms. Other things as well, but those two things stood out. As soon as I saw your teaser line for this video, I thought of him, and he was your number 1!

It's important to help normalize our passion, a passion considered weird by so many people. While I don't look to very many celebrities with admiration, a ton of people do do that, and seeing these people with reptiles may help spread positive word and normalize our wonderful hobby. Can't hate a topic that kills harmful stigmas ❤

Nicolas cage lived here in las vegas for a while. When he would go film stuff, he would leave his collection at a small reptile shop here. I would go there often and got to handle a few of his animals. Eventually he moved away and most likely gave his reptiles to the shop. A few people I knew within the reptile community ended up owning his collection

Kratts Creatures! One of my three favorite tv shows as a kid! (Magic School Bus and Bill Nye are the other two, ofc.) I hated Zooboomafoo, it was aimed at a much younger audience… and I watched the 3 above shows before I could read (4? 5?), so at around 8, I was soooo upset. 😂 I’m told their even later animated series Wild Kratts was decent. Legends alongside Steve Irwin for 90s (and maybe 00s) kids. But we recorded quite a few episodes on VHS to watch endless reruns when we were sick, so I still have copies. Gotta digitize them and see how much our knowledge of animals has changed. 😆 Fun fact: in 2017, a newly discovered mantis was named after the Kratt brothers. Thank you, Wikipedia.
