FAMOUS GRAVE TOUR - Viewers Special #9 (George A. Romero, Tim Horton, etc.)

[@Ripplesinthewaters]

Jeff Healy was blind from age 1 after he survived his first bout of cancer. The cancer that killed him was a return. He was an excellent guitarist who played on his lap like a lap steel. He was phenomenal. RIP!

[@stargatedr]

He was awesome in the film Roadhouse with Patrick Swazy and Sam Elliot

[@all.day.day-dreamer]

Angel Eyes was and still is one of my favorite songs. Definitely in my top 1000. When it aired back when it was released, I remember how the song really captured my attention. Also, as a young man, I saw Road House in my mid to late 20's and was pleasantly surprised Jeff Healy had a part in the movie. I remember him have excellent snarky dialog that made me smile. RIP

We owe Mr. Banking and Mr. Best a lot as we have a daughter with type 1 diabetes. I loved Jeff Healey and I'm q big fan of Romerq. Neat to see the Hockey Dad. Wow! 72 played downed by Bishop is impressive. There are definitely some big names in this one.

Hello from Canada! 🇨🇦. This episode meant a lot, thank you so much. Seeing the Friendly Giant brought back so many memories 😢❤️

I loved the Friendly Giant more than any other show when I was a kid. Apparently Bob Homme was just as gentle a person in real life as he was being Friendly.

[@shonaosmond4886]

Thank you for this, makes me even more proud to be Canadian 🇨🇦❤️ Terry Fox is an absolute legend and a huge inspiration. Schools across Canada celebrate Terry Fox day in September by having their students run or walk to raise money for cancer. Terry’s story is taught in classrooms all over the country. I was a teenager when he started his run across Canada. Such an incredible human being. Deepest respect for him

[@davet127]

A long time ago I was in a Florida VFW hall with a couple Vietnam Vet's that I hung around with back then. We where sitting with a couple of WW2 Vet's and I was listening to them talk about some of the guys they new who one would call a hero and one of the WW2 Vet's turned to me and said you in Canada had that young kid that tried to hop across Canada for cancer. "Boy now that's a Hero" as I see it. He didn't know Terry Fox by name yet his actions left an impression for sure. He was right in my books...

[@kristopherbeer5422]

I had no idea Gregory Hines was buried in Canada. Back in the 80s I saw him walking up W 57th street in NYC. I had seen him in Running Scared and Cotton Club. I lived him on Will & Grace too. He had already left the Broadway Show Sophisticated Ladies and I saw it with his brother Maurice. They were both amazing tap dancers.

@K.M.V S In the early 2000s Tim Horton's bought out the New England based Bess Eaton donut chain. But they weren't around here too long. Shame too; I liked their sandwiches and lunchtime menu.

As always, I started watching as soon as the notification arrived. Thank you for including Canada. I have a thing for Canadian musicians, so it was good to see Stompin’ Tom and Dennie Doherty. Let me take this opportunity to thank you for another year of informative and entertaining videos. Have a Merry Christmas and may 2022 be good to all of us.

BR, as a heads up, the band 'Teenage Head' had the great radio hit song 'Let's Shake.'

[@kriskaycee5010]

Absolutely loved this. It's so nice to see so many stops so close to home, I just wish I had of gotten out to film some myself. One detail overlooked by many is when Jumbo was struck by the train, he was possibly attempting to lead a younger elephant (Tom Thumb) to safety and was struck head on. Tom Thumb only suffered a broken leg. I've always loved visiting Jumbo when I was younger and now with my own kids.

[@shoknifeman2mikado135]

I have a feeling that that story is as true as Washinton and the cherry tree, or Laura Secord's cow

Thanks for showing me where the sweet man and great artist that was George A. Romero rests. I'm a film journalist and I had the chance to meet him twice in my career, the second time at the Lucca Film Festival in 2016, where, thanks to our common friend Paolo Zelati, I had the chance to chat and spend an afternoon with him and his wife, a memory I will cherish forever, besides being a fan of his extraordinary films ♥

This is so awesome! I had been hoping for an all-Canadian episode, and this is pretty close! I hope one day that you'll do an all-Canadian video of those buried in Hollywood, as Canadians were and still are amongst the driving forces of Hollywood, from Mack Sennett and Mary Pickford, to Louis B. Mayer, Jack Warner, Raymond Massey, John Candy, Lorne Greene, Alan Thicke, and on and on.

As a Canadian that lives not to far from Toronto I really love this video the most. My favorite was visiting the grave of Paul Kligman and the monument to both Jumbo and Terry fox. It's a blessing to be a Canadian and to realize that we influenced the world in a big way. Also It's amazing to find out that your Canadian yourself, you should visit more often.
