I met Anthony in Grand Rapids Michigan whilst he was touring with Eric Rupert. I knew where he would be. I saw him enjoying a beer. My wife begged me to get a pic from my hero. I worked in restaurants for 43 years at that point. Kitchen Confidential is the best book ever written about the industry. I have a pic with Anthony that still breaks my heart. It sits in revereance but you can see he was unhappy 2 years before he said enough.I now understand that he just wanted to be alone. I apologize Anthony - thank you for all you did.

[@raftat2818]

He trespassed frontiers, such a great personality.

[@TheBlackSheepDiaries]

I love your comment my friend, just as I loved watching Anthony in all his travels. How cool it is that you met him in person! As much as this loss saddens me, I understand we all have our demons, or pitfalls. At least he didn't get to see the day when you couldn't go to a restaurant, he got out of here just in time. That brings me a smile.

[@ad-xf8bb]

Out of curiosity, where in GR was he? I'm guessing it was somewhere decent, but part of me wishes it was local dive.

[@TheBlackSheepDiaries]

@@ad-xf8bb Yes! Just shootin the breeze, and maybe nonchalantly offering up some hard learned pointers.

[@jimpyre5038]

The man meant a lot to me. Never met him. Shows how people can impact each other.

[@bradsully6620]

I'm just happy he's in peace and anthony is no longer suffering. A lot of people say that suicide is the most selfish thing you can do. I disagree, maybe you wishing the person didn't commit suicide is the selfish thing. Or just condemning suicide is the selfish thing. I don't look at suicide as selfish because they're sick and they just want the pain to stop. Finally you get to rest in peace anthony!!

[@jamesjazzy8040]

Suicide is greed...thinking of only yourself and not being happy with what you have....

[@viper5625]

It’s weakness!

[@LollieVox]

I agree with you Brad, until we have spent time in someone's shoes we really have no room to judge. He obviously was suffering. Its sad and we miss him, but he is now in peace. Xoxo

There’s a guy who talks to Bourdain on a ghost box lol 🤷‍♂️ sounds like he’s in limbo

There's a poem by Stevie Smith called "I was drowning not waving". It reminds me of Tony. RIP

[@fever_spike]

You are loved and missed, Anthony…rest up, legend.

[@luchochang]

I didn’t need to know this about him. He was loved. I always enjoyed his travel programs, he’s now resting. Anyone who chooses to commit suicide has to be experiencing immense pain. It does make me sad, but I can’t judge someone who commits suicide. Rest in peace, Anthony Bourdain. Thank you for inspiring us with your travels.

[@JamesDavis-sh9gh]

I saw the film twice. This was truly a revalation. This film truly showed what Bourdain was all about. I wish Bourdain would have realized how appreciated he was.

[@AJ-gj9qe]

you really don't think he knew? you actually think he was unaware & wouldn't have done himself in if he knew? fail, you just don't get it

[@bennystropicalswimmigwolf8691]

Anthony Bourdain Wow! I loved watching his shows RIP Anthony

[@nartarlyiatremaynne1239]

When I found that Anthony had left this world I cried and was so shocked that this beyond fabulous man felt so much internal pain to take his leave. Australia.

[@betterthinktwice9944]

I'm so grateful, to those who knew Anthony, that finally we can somewhat know why he took his life. It's easy to imagine all the good things he had to live for, but our psyche is so complex! He definitely left a space that no one else can fill. ❤

[@chelmsfordroad50]

I saw him on the street in Manhattan with his wife and pushing his daughter in a carriage. As I passed I said simply "Mr. Bourdain". He stopped, said Hi and gave me a warm but sort of shy smile. I was a big fan of his, but I sensed that engaging him any further would have been intrusive, though I'm sure he'd have been friendly regardless.

[@andrewsharif6017]

I know that feeling. As much as I loved his entire career, the thing I related to him the most was his deemed inability to accept love. It’s a brutal feeling, and you realize the exceptions to this rule and the moments you accept love from others is comparable to the winning the lottery.

[@janekreger5749]

I always enjoyed his shows. It was a travelogue and cooking show

[@BakouMOH]

His shows were like comfort food for me. I have not been able to watch any since his death.

[@monarene44]

Nor have I and I doubt I’ll see Roadrunner. The psychological autopsy is salt on the wound.

[@myrnamiranda1006]

Sad but me to. I still watch his episodes “Parts Unknown “ on DVR. I don’t think he knew how much he was loved. I can’t get over his death 💔😔🌹🙏😢. R.I.P. Anthony.

[@areedro]

I saw him being filmed eating with his friend at an Italian restaurant in New York years ago. I was out with family and shocked to see him. We glanced at each other and I couldn't help but look over a few more times, snap a discreet pic and tell my family about him. I was such a big fan but held back out of respect and did not bother him or try to talk while he was there. From one introvert to another, I could sense his nervous and shy energy just from the second of eye contact we made with each other and I knew he didn't want to be recognized. I just wish he understood how fucking cool I thought he was. RIP Bourdain.

[@janzebuski3559]

Personally, I think it's time to stop analyzing the past. Send him your love and, finally, let him rest in peace.

[@silversurfer1781]

You said it so well.

[@juanitarichards1074]

He was a humble man, the kind of man I could have truly loved. If he only knew his worth......I especially love men with that dry humour, and also humanity with every race and creed on earth. I understand his tortured guilt ridden soul.....

[@majopatadeperro]

I got very surprised with the documentary, despite everything he had to deal with, he is still and will be my biggest inspiration, when I travel and meet new people and places I always think about him

[@jrey4703]

His ex is why we’re here watching this. We would still have him. She was the straw that broke the camels back. She turned out to be everything he despised in the world. He gave up when he saw she was pictured with another man. And she still acts like the victim. Barf.

His girlfriend is a terrible person, but at the end of the day we’re all solely responsible for our actions. It just sucks that such a cool culturally important guy couldn’t get the help he needed for his issues. I feel so bad for his daughter.

[@MickHuerta]

Judge not lest ye be judged ...

[@nikosfilipino]

Asia Argento was the one that set in stone his fall to suicide but the man was already on that path. Fame was the thing that truly ruined his life. He had a great marriage that spanned decades ruined because travel and fame became his next drug to pursue and we cheered him on for it.

It really sounds like Bourdain did a lot out of a sense of personal duty. And just never took the right care of himself. Sounds like there was always something missing.

[@mrcuttime22]

Nice vid, but... The correct word is introversion; not "shyness." And introversion comes in some varieties.

[@cohenkane2148]

Yes. Cheers. America hates any introversion. The worst feature of the current culture.

[@lavenderbee3611]

Introverts think & feel deeply, they need to be alone sometimes to recharge their batteries. It's not that they don't like being around people, it just overloads their system if it's constant. Tony really was a unique voice, I miss his wry humor and humility. He is dearly missed. Introversion is a beneficial trait for writers.

He had interesting twist on travelog. Can't judge him by his actions or faults. Not perfect but honest. I knew him years ago from Jersey Shore. When started watching his show I realized where I knew him from . I wrote him and got to meet him when he did his episode in Miami. He was pretty cool but not as he appeared on show. Had good laughs about Long Beach Island NJ.

[@einsteindarwin8756]

This makes More Sense To me now being that I Am also Shy. But this begs the question, why would he continue the show?

[@denisepaulsenful]

The thing was the biography never addressed his alcoholism. This killed him. Inadvertently. Alcohol is lethal for those with depression. It exacerbates the condition. My son has similar issues and I recognized the symptoms in AB. He was rarely without a drink no matter what the clock rang or who he was with. He needed the stuff. My son cannot drink. It has pushed him over the edge in the past, and now he's sober.

[@Robin-xe1zo]

Yes. You are so right. I don't understand why this wasn't explored. It was the clearest thing to me about his downward trajectory. People close to him had commented on it and been concerned. Huge, inexplicable oversight.

[@jamespn]

He was an interesting guy, too bad about his demise.

[@majeshirkaku1543]

[@Openyoureyes932]

The realist

[@djt6824]

Still think of you Anthony still a shock.

[@forcedmedia]

The transformation T went through during the Argento years was obvious in hindsight that something was going wrong. But because Bourdain was the goose that lays the golden egg no one would step up and challenge his decisions like when he fired longtime cameraman Zach Zamboni. Everyone just sat idly by and let the destruction of Parts Unknown begin which must have been a decision Tony pondered during the shoot in France. The real question is could anyone or anything have saved AB by the time they were shooting the final episode? Or was his mind already made up and his decision was final?

[@jorgegomez524]

Don’t really like all the fuss about food, could never understand it. What I appreciated and recognized in him right from the first program was his love for books. Books was what made him special, but most people miss that.Still do.

[@majeshirkaku1543]

Complicated man

[@greenmanalishi6086]

A Man who seemingly had everything. Suddenly comes to a point where nothing mattered at all. Everything's gone... Tony died of humiliation. The chain of events, leading down the darkest 2 weeks of his life - He had $450K in the bank - He paid out a reported $380K out of blind love for Argento. And stuck up for her silly, fake #metoo movement... She turned around, flipped him off, and tossed him aside like a used napkin - Tony was a Romantic. And very lonely. And impulsive... She used him up. Nothing left. 🥵

It’s not shameful or an ultimate sin, his last act. It makes us sad, it makes us miss him, but his life was his and like Robin Williams, they have every right to being their final curtain down. Many say it’s cowardly to do what he did, I strongly disagree, Anthony was very brave in ways we will never understand.

I read all of his books including his mysteries and saw him in the San Francisco Bay area when he was on a book tour. I can understand why people were so sad, as I was, at his suicide.
