My dad was also a very well known chef, had hundreds work for him,I met people after my dad died that said he'd call the jail here and ask if they have any inmates who want jobs just to give someone a chance and a way out. He was loved and his employers put on the biggest funeral I've ever seen, 500 plus people there. He looked and spoke and acted a lot like Anthony. Losing Anthony was so sad, right when zkotchen confidential came out my dad loved it and died in 06. Anthony became a way for me to see my dad again now they're both gone. I miss you Dad.
Just the descriptive language he uses in normal conversation is amazing. I can't even intentionally craft the written word as well as he naturally spoke. I miss this guy.
Hell. he grew up rich and went to private schools and Vassar for a while - THAT's how he comes up with all these weird references that I have to look up all the time. He was a LEARNED man. Me, I'm a schlub.
I’m so glad you had this experience. I loved Bourdain, and all these years later, his loss still hurts my heart. Rarely do we know how many people genuinely love us, and the depths of pain our loss would be to them. I hope you are seeking help with your mental health issues. I am a 75 yr. old woman, and I have been there before. Please know that you are loved. 💞
One of the most humiliating moments in my life was when I had lunch in a mall food court by myself in the middle of the day in the middle of the week just because I was tired of eating by myself in my apartment. Soul crushing.
Ya when I was freshly single I really enjoyed sitting alone in a cafe or restaurant for a meal. Three years later it's just depressing, I get carryout instead.
He joked here about sliding into a 3 day depression. Clearly it’s a joke. But I’m familiar enough from hearing him speak elsewhere to know that he has joked about being depressed before. We all know of his early struggles with addiction and alcohol. From struggling with depression myself I know that those who like to joke about it are usually the ones who know what it’s like from personal experience. RIP my friend.
No, actually it's clearly NOT a joke. He was being totally serious. Anybody who doesn't struggle with crippling depression and neurotically overthinking/overanalyzing every little thing has NO idea at all what it's like.
Locut0s Joking about everything is a common coping mechanism for individuals with severe depression like myself... It's how we stop ourselves from focusing on things so much and how we hide our true selves from the world around us.
This is why I love Bourdain. The man has enough class and sophistication to eat at the worlds best restaurants in France yet enough humility and grace to go to KFC when hes drunk and wants Mac n cheese.
@@timothygu3 Look mate. He committed suicide. If you want to honour him, than honour what he decided to do last while amongst us: prematurely leave this world. He's dead.
I never met Anthony Bourdain personally but I always felt like he was a close friend. We were the same age, roughly the similar tall, lanky build, liked the same music. When I heard that he had died, talk about a soul crushing experience. I still miss him. But seeing him like this can still make my day better. Thank you, Tony for everything man.
Normal / healthy person NEVER will understand how it is to be in depression . I guess Conan thought, o yeah nice joke. But Anthony might have thinking "ok so we will see if I can live through another day somehow"
Wrong. 🤦 This "Are you okay" crap is designed to take the load off the person asking. Correct response: "Damn.... What are you doing after the show? Well, you're coming out with ME!"
My most soul crushing meal was a fancy dinner put on by the president of my college. I had found out my girlfriend of 5 years cheated on me at 3pm, and dinner began at 5:30pm. Bland food, boring conversation, and i was in the middle of a mental breakdown. I remember spending the majority of the meal trying not to cry into a plate of bland dry chicken. Absolutely the most depressing meal of my life.
@@infamousjack1256 just moved into an apartment with my now girlfriend, soon to be fiancé. She loves me and we’re building a great life together! Time really does heal all wounds i suppose the saying goes
Lucus Cruz - I sure hope you are not a grown adult. If you are and have such a narrow-minded outlook on depression then you are truly ignorant. Depression is caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain. You can't just WILL yourself out of depression.
Dec 2006 i board a plane from peru to us in the pocket of the seat in front of me was the inflight magazine with anthony's picture promoting the new Travel Channel's program "No Reservations" little that i know that would a start of a journey with me enjoying every program that was aired up until is death he was my connection to the outside world. When he passed apart of my life experience was gone. I look back at some of the programs and he was crying out for help with depression. It is so sad to see someone take their life when you envy what experience they have shared with you. I like the fact towards the end his programs turned to not just focus on food but also about people and culture. Anthony you were an ambassador for all of us and i thank you allowing us to embark on an adventure with you in each of your programs RIP my friend!
The first time we went to Ireland back in the 90s, we came across a Fifties-themed American diner in Dublin, so we thought it’d be funny to grab lunch there and see what Happy Days nostalgia looked like thru an Irish lens. The meal was fine: serviceable burgers, shakes, fries. About a year later we’re back home in Boston, and we see a sign at a local mall that that diner would be opening a location soon over here. And that’s how we discovered that this Johnny Rockets place was, in fact, a chain from the West Coast. 😹
RIP old friend. You showed us all what can be accomplished by simply sitting down for a meal together. I hope whatever demons haunted you are gone, that you have finally found peace. Best wishes to your family, thanks for taking us all along with you for so many years.
2:27 pretty crazy to hear this is in the aftermath of his suicide. In the moment, you listen to him say that and just assume it's a joke or hyperbole...pretty heartbreaking to find out he really endured dark moments like that. God bless you, Bourdain.
@yhootoob I mean . . . kind of? It's not something you just turn on or off. It's a condition that is prompted by an event or circumstances that cause immense anguish, regret, guilt, etc. It takes time to heal, or it just doesn't, and in Mr. Bourdain's case it won out. Also, to the OP, best of luck with it. It's hell.
You literally cannot say "I got food poisoning at a Johnny Rockets in an airport" any more beautifully than Anthony Bourdain just did. RIP our worldwide cuisine king
It was eerie to me when he said "when I'm in a bad decision making period of the evening, let's put it that way." I know he was talking about food, but for some reason, I feel like there was something more to that. And when he talked about 3 day spiral of misery and depression from that one experience, I could tell he was the kind of person who was tormented by some serious demons.
Somebody that brought so much joy into the world and peoples lives, it’s such a shame took his own life. Shows that even successful people can suffer depression and mental challenges. RIP. You were the best.
I think he felt alive when he was travelling, eating, drinking and meeting awesome people around the world. And I loved him for it. I am going to miss him, that is for sure
The only thing I can watch him on without crying are his shows. When I see him in these interviews and such, we know how much he hated doing them and I wish he wasn’t put into the realm which ultimately led to the end.
Why "rip" him when he's already dead? If you had any real respect for the deceased, you'd put in the effort to properly abbreviate "rest in peace" with R.I.P.*
I once worked in a country whose main airport was so small it doesn't have any international brand fast food chain, it had just one little sad diner. I ordered a chicken sandwich once and was pleasantly surprised because it was really really good, the best chicken sandwich I've had ever, anywhere, and I found it in one of the worst airports I've been to. Ordered it every time I needed a meal waiting for my flight home during the duration of my work there, always cooked to order, on freshly baked buttery dinner rolls. A gem in the most unexpected of places.
I always enjoyed venturing to the lesser known, not so busy, looks clean enough joints. The family cook at these places often add a little more passion into their dishes.
Jonathon Gold of the LA Times often gave high scores to restaurants in non-descript stripmalls. He said you’ll never know where you’ll discover a chef with hidden talent
@@electrictroy2010 Jonathon Gold - also much missed. He was an invaluable resource to those of us who live in Los Angeles, discovering the hidden wonders that we never would have found on our own.
Seeing this after he took his life is an experience to say the least.. it’s a shame no one saw it coming. With the things I’ve struggled with.. seeing the slight nuances in his expressions are a familiar face in light of Mental health struggle
Why is suicide so hard to believe? It's just too difficult to believe that a man like Anthony Bourdain would ever do something like that. He struggled through his life with a lot of things, and I really wish his soul to be peacefull now. Rest in Peace mr. Bourdain. May your travels and adventures be remembered for generations to come
All the wealth, fame, and power in the world can't make you happy. I think Tony was missing the one thing, or better, person, that would've brought him true joy.
A song by Kurt Cobsin wás released after his death where the entire chorus is "Pain" over and over again. None of his songs were cheery. He talked about being in pain with stomach issues, probably related to drugs all the time. It wasn't really a shock that he killed himself. Ask anyone around him at the time
Anthony Bourdain was one of the coolest guys ever. I always wished I could just hang out with him roaming around Thailand drinking and eating crazy food. He is still deeply missed RIP
He was definitely a hyperactive personality. Unsettled. Those types tend to be very thin, as well. That's something I've always noticed about him. And they said he was always anxious always going going. It's tiring to exist like that. No rest physically, or mentally.
Why "rip" him when he's already dead? If you had any real respect for the deceased, you'd put in the effort to properly abbreviate "rest in peace" with R.I.P.* or simply spell it out!
Gunther Ultrabolt Novacrunch i watched the whole fight chuck was whooping on his ass, since Ali played fake hurt so much judges didnt know he was hurt to score the round correctly
Miss this guy, so genuine and an amazing story teller. You can tell, from this clip and a few others that there was a layer of sadness not too far beneath the surface. I've known people with clinical depression and it just manifests differently for them. Sure there are days where I am quite stressed and feeling down/depressed, but the difference I've noticed is this serious "spiraling" which tends to manifest in people like Anthony.
Definitely, it's a medical condition and so hard to manage. By its nature, it works against the hope and willpower that you need to cope with any serious medical condition. I have a friend with depression, and when I saw through his Facebook feed that he had taken up Pokemon Go, I chuckled - but then I realized that it was probably a moderately helpful, low-impact way of addressing his condition. If nothing else, it got him out of the house, exercising and getting some fresh air, and it kept his mind occupied. So 👍to him obsessing over Pokemon Go.
It seems that many people in the comments section are sharing similar stories of the most depressing meal they've ever had. Here is mine. In 2017 I had a major mental health crisis and fell into a severe bout of depression and anxiety. I apart from using the bathroom, I literally didn't leave my room/bed most days. Anyway I became so intolerable that on October that year I got into a massive, depression fuelled fight with my father (who thinks depression isn't real and that it's just laziness) and he threw me onto the streets. For the first 3 days after being made homeless I was in a state of shock and it didn't quite sink in. Then it sank in and hit me like a ton of bricks. The night my situation fully sank in was on a dark, cold autumn evening and I was aimlessly wandering the streets. I decided to eat in KFC. I sat there under those harsh artificial lights in a filthy, trash-infested KFC with a three-piece meal made for me by uncaring, teenaged staff who were more concerned with talking and messing around then doing their jobs. I just sat there eating lukewarm, greasy and soggy chicken with cold, limp fries fully coming to terms with the fact that I was homeless. My eyes welled up with tears as I was eating but I forced myself to stop because a teenaged member of staff saw me and made a pathetic attempt at hiding his laughter. That whole evening made me feel REAL GOOD (not). I spend the next couple of months sofa-surfing. I am in a much better & more stable situation now. Even though I still suffer from depression, it is nowhere near as bad as it was during those times. My heart goes out to anyone that suffers from depression, especially if they have family like mine who don't believe depression is real or how serious & debilitating it is. All you have to do is keep moving forward no matter what. Even if it's a tiny bit every now and then keep moving forward and try to reach out for help from someone/somewhere (there are many websites, phone-lines and organisations that'll offer help for free). Just keep moving forward and I promise you that things will eventually get better to the point where you can function and cope. If I can do it then anyone can. Just believe in yourself no matter how hard or pointless that may seem and keep moving forward. I love all of you. You matter to this world ❤
He always conveyed so much of his pain beneath the surface but not even that far beneath to those who were able to see it for obvious. Sad that he’s gone. Sometimes pain so deep for so long just never leaves and can’t be silenced no matter how much u have or where u go.
He had the knack for stringing words together that caused his audience to sit up and listen. I miss his commentaries and his wit. Not sure who will ever walk in his foot steps again. I hope he is having a joyous time wherever he is. RIP.....
His Johnny rockets experience was at Chicago O'Hares airport. He also bought me a Starbucks coffee that day. I'll never forget meeting him while I was simply having a bad day and cursing the world when he interrupted me w a kind gesture. We shared our stories and he left me smiling with uneasy feeling he wasn't a happy man. Rip my friend, thank you for the java.
Conan was so Wrong about being Tony being a "Renowned" Chef. Tony was known as Regular Restaurant Line Chef. He is really known for His Writing more so than for His Cooking. His Talent was the ability to express the experience of each Meal as He Traveled the World.
ah, a variation of the "Wish Sandwich". Others include pickle, ketchup, and bread. Or my favorite: mustard, cheese, and bread. You don't know struggle if you haven't had a Wish Sandwich.
I loved watching his tv shows especially parts unknown when I was younger now I’m rewatching it and realized how much I never truly understood his humor not until now that im older. He has such a charming character. Rest easy
5 guys is one of those places people act like assembling a burger is a miraculous feat and are willing to overpay for it. I will just make my own and save my 10 bucks.
Sadly add suffering from depression, addiction to drugs and booze. It didn't balance not even having a young daughter. He was brilliant and taught us much. R.I.P.
This video makes me miss how he would open his show. Explaining perfectly what we’re about to see with vocabulary that I’ve never heard before but you kinda knew what he was saying. Everything flowed perfectly together with his smooth voice. Man do I miss hearing his voice.
My most depressing meal was after I left an abusive relationship where she cheated on me. I had just purchased a house but I had nothing in it. I had two beers and leftover twizzlers before falling asleep on an inflatable mattress. My life is so much better now haha. A lot can change in a year or two. Stay strong guys.
@@fenriz218 yeah I reckon. If he was as intelligent as everyone's claiming you'd think he could have talked a bit of sense to himself and gottem some help

And for your kind comment I hope you be happy and have a healthy life :)

Telltale sign of alcohol abuse, which isn't exactly surprising.
Robertus Amor Just repeat what I have said.
The way he used words to describe things was amazing. When he told stores in such detail it always brought it to live. Rest in peace Mr. Bourdain
The way this man paints his stories with words is wonderful...I miss Anthony Bourdain alot.
I once worked in a country whose main airport was so small it doesn't have any international brand fast food chain, it had just one little sad diner. I ordered a chicken sandwich once and was pleasantly surprised because it was really really good, the best chicken sandwich I've had ever, anywhere, and I found it in one of the worst airports I've been to. Ordered it every time I needed a meal waiting for my flight home during the duration of my work there, always cooked to order, on freshly baked buttery dinner rolls. A gem in the most unexpected of places.
I always enjoyed venturing to the lesser known, not so busy, looks clean enough joints. The family cook at these places often add a little more passion into their dishes.
In Minneapolis there’s a small private airport with a small restaurant. It’s one of the highest rated restaurants in the city
Jonathon Gold of the LA Times often gave high scores to restaurants in non-descript stripmalls. He said you’ll never know where you’ll discover a chef with hidden talent
@@electrictroy2010 Jonathon Gold - also much missed. He was an invaluable resource to those of us who live in Los Angeles, discovering the hidden wonders that we never would have found on our own.
R.I.P Anthony Bourdain 😢🙏
I've been in a similar spiral for a bit over a year now I'm just glad I still have some sort of hope.
RIP Anthony
He was a really beautiful soul
Thank you so much much for going out of your way to sign your book for me in Houston. Please rest easy ❤
❤
Seeing this after he took his life is an experience to say the least.. it’s a shame no one saw it coming. With the things I’ve struggled with.. seeing the slight nuances in his expressions are a familiar face in light of Mental health struggle
A Chuck Wepner reference right out of the box.... "the Bayonne Bleeder" was quite the character.
Why is suicide so hard to believe? It's just too difficult to believe that a man like Anthony Bourdain would ever do something like that. He struggled through his life with a lot of things, and I really wish his soul to be peacefull now. Rest in Peace mr. Bourdain. May your travels and adventures be remembered for generations to come
Suicide is hard to believe to normal, healthy people. That's why kurts Cobain suicide is still for some people murder commited by Courtney
maybe he was murdered? it does happen.
Yeah just like some nuts can't believe Kurt cobain shot himself.
All the wealth, fame, and power in the world can't make you happy. I think Tony was missing the one thing, or better, person, that would've brought him true joy.
A song by Kurt Cobsin wás released after his death where the entire chorus is "Pain" over and over again. None of his songs were cheery. He talked about being in pain with stomach issues, probably related to drugs all the time. It wasn't really a shock that he killed himself. Ask anyone around him at the time
Two of my favorite TV people together! 😀
conan and conan?
Matt LeBlanc and Andy?
Roman Ramos Cameraman #4 and Audience member #26?
TheHehe1223 i like andy!
サパリーヤスシャント At least yours was clever! Lol
Thank goodness there are so many moments with Anthony captured on video. He may be gone but definitely not forgotten.
Greatest endorsement for Johnny Rockets ever.
Soul crushing food & experience enough to make you take your own life.
RIP, Tony.
The legend who showed us the world through food . RIP
Rest in Peace , i always loved ur travel shows when i was a teen. condolences from Germany.
"Your". Me too as they're well made :) Take care. #AnthonyDidYourWifeKnowAboutDepression
Anthony Bourdain was one of the coolest guys ever. I always wished I could just hang out with him roaming around Thailand drinking and eating crazy food. He is still deeply missed RIP
RIP my friend. You had so much wit. What a huge loss for humanity!!!
RIP man. You opened my eyes to the wider world as a kid living in a poor rural town. You are missed Mr Bourdain.
You can tell how much anxiety he had. Just look at his hands.
Nick Puente tf why 3 mins ago
Looks like he was coming off of something. Concerning...
@@Leafy0458 wtf do you mean??
Absolutely! shaky and shivering!
He was definitely a hyperactive personality. Unsettled. Those types tend to be very thin, as well. That's something I've always noticed about him. And they said he was always anxious always going going. It's tiring to exist like that. No rest physically, or mentally.
Rip tony. You were one of the few chefs I could honestly relate to. You spoke for the home cooks that every other chef ignored.
Why "rip" him when he's already dead? If you had any real respect for the deceased, you'd put in the effort to properly abbreviate "rest in peace" with R.I.P.* or simply spell it out!
@@einundsiebenziger5488 that’s what you got from that comment? The fact I didn’t state rest in peace?
8 seconds into video googles "Chuck Wepner".
How bout only white guy to go 15 rounds with Ali?
HE'S THE INSPIRATION FOR ROCKY
only reason Ali got the win, was he was the champ already
Gunther Ultrabolt Novacrunch
i watched the whole fight chuck was whooping on his ass, since Ali played fake hurt so much judges didnt know he was hurt to score the round correctly
I watched it too. If Ali was playing fake hurt so much...then how was Chuck kicking his ass?
It was Johnny Rockets fault.
This was Ramsey's work here
He over thought everything. Even a burger.
@@JM-fo1te for wanting a tasty burger with quality bun and ingredients that's fresh and tasty?
@@u235u235u235 ...and wanting a gf that didn't love him
OH MY GOD as a teen I got the most horrific food poisoning from Jonny Rockets. I feel so validated
Miss this guy, so genuine and an amazing story teller. You can tell, from this clip and a few others that there was a layer of sadness not too far beneath the surface. I've known people with clinical depression and it just manifests differently for them. Sure there are days where I am quite stressed and feeling down/depressed, but the difference I've noticed is this serious "spiraling" which tends to manifest in people like Anthony.
Definitely, it's a medical condition and so hard to manage. By its nature, it works against the hope and willpower that you need to cope with any serious medical condition. I have a friend with depression, and when I saw through his Facebook feed that he had taken up Pokemon Go, I chuckled - but then I realized that it was probably a moderately helpful, low-impact way of addressing his condition. If nothing else, it got him out of the house, exercising and getting some fresh air, and it kept his mind occupied. So 👍to him obsessing over Pokemon Go.
He was found dead today in France. Apparently he comitted suicide...
Rest In Peace Anthony, I will miss him...
Murdered not suicide
Ohms you are trippin dude , he just hung himself , get over it , its sad , yes ...but thats really too much making a murder conspiracy out of it ...
BuXnAMaN exactly. Some people have absolutely no respect
Jason Yang *you
* is he dead...
And yes, he is...
Jason Yang Four days ago...you can google it, for more details...
He loves In & Out though
So does Alex in A Clockwork Orange.
Not after reprogramming ... (Alex)
But Alex was cured, alright
Who doesn't
Hey guy from 2017 show some respect, he just died here in the future (june 2018)
So well spoken and witty. Wow. What a loss. Rest In Peace, Anthony Bourdain ❤️
Really enjoyed his work. He seemed like a really genuine guy. RIP.
It seems that many people in the comments section are sharing similar stories of the most depressing meal they've ever had. Here is mine. In 2017 I had a major mental health crisis and fell into a severe bout of depression and anxiety. I apart from using the bathroom, I literally didn't leave my room/bed most days. Anyway I became so intolerable that on October that year I got into a massive, depression fuelled fight with my father (who thinks depression isn't real and that it's just laziness) and he threw me onto the streets. For the first 3 days after being made homeless I was in a state of shock and it didn't quite sink in. Then it sank in and hit me like a ton of bricks. The night my situation fully sank in was on a dark, cold autumn evening and I was aimlessly wandering the streets.
I decided to eat in KFC. I sat there under those harsh artificial lights in a filthy, trash-infested KFC with a three-piece meal made for me by uncaring, teenaged staff who were more concerned with talking and messing around then doing their jobs. I just sat there eating lukewarm, greasy and soggy chicken with cold, limp fries fully coming to terms with the fact that I was homeless. My eyes welled up with tears as I was eating but I forced myself to stop because a teenaged member of staff saw me and made a pathetic attempt at hiding his laughter. That whole evening made me feel REAL GOOD (not). I spend the next couple of months sofa-surfing.
I am in a much better & more stable situation now. Even though I still suffer from depression, it is nowhere near as bad as it was during those times. My heart goes out to anyone that suffers from depression, especially if they have family like mine who don't believe depression is real or how serious & debilitating it is. All you have to do is keep moving forward no matter what. Even if it's a tiny bit every now and then keep moving forward and try to reach out for help from someone/somewhere (there are many websites, phone-lines and organisations that'll offer help for free). Just keep moving forward and I promise you that things will eventually get better to the point where you can function and cope. If I can do it then anyone can. Just believe in yourself no matter how hard or pointless that may seem and keep moving forward. I love all of you. You matter to this world ❤
You are gonna get trough this. Stay strong.
He was such a sweet man with honesty. I am so sad that he is gone. I really felt like I knew him :(
The Hunter S Thompson of the cooking world be free man enjoy it.
He always conveyed so much of his pain beneath the surface but not even that far beneath to those who were able to see it for obvious. Sad that he’s gone. Sometimes pain so deep for so long just never leaves and can’t be silenced no matter how much u have or where u go.
Yes. All the fame and money and the world can't heal some wounds.
yeah shutup bro @@patrickcannady2066
He had the knack for stringing words together that caused his audience to sit up and listen. I miss his commentaries and his wit. Not sure who will ever walk in his foot steps again. I hope he is having a joyous time wherever he is.
RIP.....
I love listening to him tell a story.
I'm sad there won't be any more. But I'm glad for what we've gotten.
He was such a brilliant story-teller 😢
Rest In Peace to a great chef and a great man. You will be missed!
His Johnny rockets experience was at Chicago O'Hares airport. He also bought me a Starbucks coffee that day. I'll never forget meeting him while I was simply having a bad day and cursing the world when he interrupted me w a kind gesture. We shared our stories and he left me smiling with uneasy feeling he wasn't a happy man. Rip my friend, thank you for the java.
If a burger makes you depressed for 3 days, wow, sucks to be you 😂
Conan was so Wrong about being Tony being a "Renowned" Chef. Tony was known as Regular Restaurant Line Chef. He is really known for His Writing more so than for His Cooking. His Talent was the ability to express the experience of each Meal as He Traveled the World.
R.I.P Anthony Bourdain. You were loved ❤️
Rest in Peace Anthony Bourdain.
You were the legend.
Saddest meal ever eaten? Ketchup and mustard sandwich. Just ketchup and mustard and bread.
Brent Newland you are a creature
ew
ah, a variation of the "Wish Sandwich". Others include pickle, ketchup, and bread. Or my favorite: mustard, cheese, and bread. You don't know struggle if you haven't had a Wish Sandwich.
and eating it alone, not even bothering to sit down...
+Brent Newland You had bread??!
I loved watching his tv shows especially parts unknown when I was younger now I’m rewatching it and realized how much I never truly understood his humor not until now that im older. He has such a charming character. Rest easy
This man is a natural story teller just by the way he use words and idioms spontaneously is just amazing.
Rip Anthony, you will be missed
Thank goodness he didn't say Five Guys! I don't think I could have handled it.
I don't think anyone can handle five guys
VegasLowRoller I like Five Guys in my mouth.
VegasLowRoller
5 guys is one of those places people act like assembling a burger is a miraculous feat and are willing to overpay for it. I will just make my own and save my 10 bucks.
VegasLowRoller tried five guys it was great. afterwards my mouth was sore.
He was so brilliant and experienced, I took his word as law regarding cuisine. I will miss him, and thank him for his wisdom
Sadly add suffering from depression, addiction to drugs and booze. It didn't balance not even having a young daughter. He was brilliant and taught us much. R.I.P.
This video makes me miss how he would open his show. Explaining perfectly what we’re about to see with vocabulary that I’ve never heard before but you kinda knew what he was saying. Everything flowed perfectly together with his smooth voice. Man do I miss hearing his voice.
My most depressing meal was after I left an abusive relationship where she cheated on me. I had just purchased a house but I had nothing in it. I had two beers and leftover twizzlers before falling asleep on an inflatable mattress.
My life is so much better now haha. A lot can change in a year or two. Stay strong guys.
Iv'e red all his books. He's gold Jerry gold
austin p red
lol!
0:45 That KFC mac and cheese is really good, for whatever reason.
What a great man. I hope he knew how important he was to the world.
A TV-chef? I realize that RUclips-obituary-tourism can be a hobby, but aren't we being a little... melodramatic?
@@fenriz218 yeah I reckon. If he was as intelligent as everyone's claiming you'd think he could have talked a bit of sense to himself and gottem some help
Miss him ...what many happy TV hours He provided with his show ....THX
Andy’s such a pro. His supporting jokes are the best. “This one doesn’t work.” Brilliant.
Rest In Peace, Sir.
