Mickey Mantle Wet The Bed Until He Was 16 Years Old | The Dick Cavett Show

[@iluvatar003]

I love how Paul Simon just shows up out of nowhere.

[@pauricdevro]

That was hilarious

[@kennethrichardson7071]

Paul Simon was the first guest on that night's show.

@M On Earth, Soccer may be the most popular, but when you consider the whole Universe, it's Baseball.

A true warrior. How brave it was to admit that on national television without even a hint of shame in his voice.

[@chrisoleson9570]

Being drunk might encourage such confessions.

@@chrisoleson9570 I resemble that remark

[@eytonshalomsandiego]

god, they are so gentle in their storytelling. my childhood heros..

[@jorgealmeyda5222]

Mantle telling Paul Simon that he should come over to see Joe DiMaggio at his plaque unveiling. Pretty priceless I would say.

"Mickey Mantle wets the bed till he was 16 yrs old "!! 🤣 🤣

[@costantino8358]

Ive never seen mickey play , when i was born he was retired already . Hes my favourite player of all time

[@ilc3855]

Mantle knew what pitch was coming when he faced Whitey. If only a major league team could find a way to have all their hitters know ahead of time which pitch is coming, maybe by tipping them off somehow, with a signal or a bang... theyd be unstoppable.

Picard's Flute yeah, imagine...lol

[@joshlewis575]

347 on base and 475 slugging, totally unstoppable 🤣🤣 even when you cheat, hitting a baseball is still impossible

[@stevenyourke7901]

I can’t even believe Cavett asked that question!

[@RichMansour]

I was there.It was against Chicago. 6/8/69.

[@uncjim]

Mickey had a quick self effacing sense of humor..Southern Charm. He was pretty much quiet during his playing days.

[@NovaRack]

5:24 Paul Simon is shocked!

[@somethingyousaid5059]

I don't know about Mickey, but if it were me I wouldn't want that _LEAKING_ out. 😁

[@johnsradios484]

I played stickball in nyc as a kid! But I was no Mickey or whitey !

[@_Daniel_Plainview]

Well I still do

[@Frankincensedjb123]

And Simon is still devastated to this day

[@Gannooch]

I have nothing against the other celebs that were on this show but is this channel ever going to show the Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason or Art Carney? How about any Honeymooners actors that were part of the main cast? These are rarities much like the other videos on YT.

[@nickschrenk5714]

Is it me or is the non verbal tension communication seem negative between Whitey and Mantle?

[@ryanadkins7923]

F**k me! that was awesome.i cant wait for spring and 2020 season VIVA GIGANTES!

[@jamesdooling4139]

I was a bed-wetter until I was 16. Hell, even today it happens once every couple of years and I'm in my 40s. I will say this in my defense... Every single instance occurs in a vivid dream where I am actively pissing in a bowl or on a tree. Only now, as an older man and an alert dreamer with the power to sleepingly say, "Wake up, this ain't right," to myself do I stop when I feel moisture. I'm not pissing the bed, I'm taking a great piss in a good dream... I diligently wake up and hurry to the bathroom, but I'm always mad that I had to leave a particularly interesting dream and can't get back to it. I'd almost rather sleep on hot plastic sheets!

[@homerun8032]

It's a medical condition that could happen to anyone.
