One of the greatest minds in the last 100 years....completely addled on every drug known to man...bu yet still managed to intrigue sober minds. Anyone else ever think conan was a badass...nice shot
Hunter.informed much of my awareness of an American Dream that didn't. really exist. The Zeitgeist of the 1960's and 1970's that he wrote about and embodied seemed instinctively closer to reality and truth and freedom ( to us ) than the indoctrination drilled into myself & my peers by the establishment. I devoured everything he wrote about and, he remains one of the major influences on my way of seeing things, and I started reading HST in 1973 or thereabouts. He was his own heir. I miss him as much as many, many others surely do.
I love how fucking anxious and nervous he makes Letterman every interview. every word that comes out of his mouth that isn't a curse, or something that'll land ABC in the shit makes David sigh with relief hahaha
Who can understand either Keith or Hunter? So hard to discern what they’re saying! 😂 Hearing Keith talk about Altamont was the best part of this video.
I cried laughing when reading Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. I think the fact that I, also, misused drugs for many years, made me live within the book.
Much obliged that you put this together. If you ever dig up more clips or throw together some more "best of Hunter" bits... I'd be delighted. Some people are born rich and others eat shit and die. Peace!
@@KCNYC He lived longer than he intended or wanted, he did everything he wanted to do - it was not because he was washed up, but because he came and left on his own terms - no-one elses.
I've been getting through the first volume of those letters in fear and loathing for about 2 years. And I've listened to them. I think I've got a pretty good handle on his turns of phrase I already knew how he thought but I'm working on a book about Hunter s Thompson fictional we'll see how it goes they're quite interesting but they're intense
My interest in him was sparked by the outrageousness he displayed. However, after actually reading him my interest went way past that part of him. After giving into the compulsion his words stirred up in me to seek more depth into who he was as a person, I found a lot of what I now enjoy to consider my "self". We all have things that we are apprehensive to explore in the manner we believe they deserve. Mainly because fear of potential reactions from the masses who do not seem to approve. Reading, seeing, and listening to others who have "gotten away with it" can be that catalyst we need to get over that fear. Allowing us do what we know to be right for us and/or what is Just/true. Thanks for the video, it was nice to check back in on him and reconsider things now that I'm even older and......seasoned? 😬
Dear Lise.. let's make this our vid for eternity, even after I'm gone. I gotta tell ya, the part with Conan was really my fave part.. was hard to pick a fave but, that part is so me. Love. Always, Cyn.
Imagine HST's hangovers. They must have been excruciating. Everyday became a double "hair of the dog that bit you." day. Pat Buchanan was fond of him. The Sixties were a better time to be young than now, but aging is a bitch in any era.
He apparently drank steadily, at all times, a constant amount of booze...never allowed himself to sober up enough to be hung over.... More like hungover from massive cocaine use... That lucky bastard... Coke is really expensive
I was walking on the beach one day and a guy pointed at me. After stopping to see what he wanted, he turned his thigh and pointed towards the tattoo on his calf. It was the same symbol that was on my shirt. The peyote button being held by a fist with two thumbs. Say no more, sir.
Hunter, lemme ask you a question, why didn't you take off your jacket before we started taping? I wasn't sure ... it's cold behind me here, and hot in front of me, and I wasn't sure which one was gonna prevail.
Missing Hunter. I’m glad he was relatively coherent here. My stepfather blew his brains out 21 years ago and I would not recommend it. I consider myself a suicide survivor. Having cleaned up the scene - it’s ugly and scarring. Don’t do the suicide thing.
O the days of H.S.T. in his prime, which was all the time. The nostalgia factor hits off big with the v.h.s. recording. Richards & Thompson are so HIGH they jus ramblin, an it makes more sense than majority of straight sober squares. I wonder what Thompson's energy transformed into after his physical vessel perished.... Prolly a Golden Eagle or some apex predator.🤔🤔🤔😈🍄🍄
, I would easily give $5,000 for that book if it is signed I would get 15. Hunter is the greatest writer of the 20th century for my generation. Hemingway would be running a very distance second, I hope you're not resting in peace I hope you're raising hell, I'm sure you are.
Conan O'Brian the American mick knew he would have a good time with the legend Hunter, that's why he agreed to the terms of their meeting. Tell me he wasn't lovin it. This is how friends treat friends in America unless you are somehow disenfranchised from the American experience. Sad for you.
Sam blam-a lamb Look where I am from! And I agree with you. Thompson was a loser with no perseverance who shot himself with his son and grandson in the house! Ugh! Selfish! Oh, you meant Conan. Sorry!
Randy Williams Right. He didn’t care about his two wives, his son or grandson. Blowing his brains out was a true act of love for himself, also. Give us a break! He was a loser!

Thank you. I'm at the tail end of a savage acid burn and I need this man
What a legend. Sad that Hunter couldn't handle getting old. He was one of a kind for sure.
One of the greatest minds in the last 100 years....completely addled on every drug known to man...bu yet still managed to intrigue sober minds. Anyone else ever think conan was a badass...nice shot
"That'll teach that f**kin' bear, man." Seeing Hunter smile, which seemed to be so rare in his later years, made me smile too.
RIP to one of the greatest. It's hard to find people who are 100% REAL
He was just such an icon, they don't make them like him anymore. Genius.
Dude is literally a luciferian... listen to what he says its in your face he's not real for shit
This dude was high 100% of the time he wasnt real juat confused
Mark my words there will never be another like him todays society doesn't allow for people like him anymore what a great man
You're right...people look up to as heroes, those who chop off their dicks and wear dresses.... Those are the modern heroes...
Hunters hate note was so epic “you’re a fool, a swine and a doomed man” mic drop
The world isn't the same without Hunter.
+Greg Bradley I genuinely wish George Carlin , Hunter S. Thompson & Bill Hicks were still here
Greg Bradley and burroughs man??!!
Greg Bradley much better place.
Yeah...won't be the same because now he won't get to direct snuff videos where kids get raped and mutilated. Fucking dumb fan sheeple yo...
More and more things decay

So he stole your dreams but made you feel ok about it? What an asshole he is
Its been 3 years but.... you use Zeitgeist... I knew about Kindergarten but I haven't known that Zeitgeist is used in English.
@@terryfonz4603 there are more dreams to life than just the myths perpetuated by western society. (No disrespect to ur reply)
"Go with the m60.......Thats a lot of weight for an m16."
"I finally returned the calls from secret service" - Hunter
Hunter was on a mission. No idea which one but his echo will be heard. The wave that crashed.
I can listen to the good doctor speak all night

things sure have changed

The look Kieth gives him after opening the door... "This man's fucking insane"
I cant believe they would have him on the air! I love him but I would have been terrified to meet him.
This is so great, and fuck it I prefer this resolution I'ts making me trip harder lol THANKS uploader
Right on lol
Any freaks of today?

yes yes yes
did you buy these tapes off some guy on ebay like 15 years ago? cause that guy is me.
Thank you Boof Mauler
You're officially an American historian Mr. Boof
I bought those tapes!!!!
Too soon.. Just imagine what he could've done with a "Fear and Loathing: On the Campaign Trail 2016"
He killed himself on his own terms and planned out his funeral I don’t think it was too soon by any means
Hunter was washed up, that’s why he axed himself.

"let me help u with your mittens" .. letterman really knew how to handle Hunter
He lived a long fear and loathing but he shall now gamble and win in Las Vegas rip hunter
wolfie'S Hallucianation speak english
My dad always told me "guns and booze don't mix". Clearly he was wrong!
Am I the only one......or does Hunter resemble the dali lama.........I would have loved to party with this man......

If anyone else is watching this while doing drugs and/or drinking... 27:03 = a flying car.
Hunter was the man world is going to be a lot quieter without him
Hunter S. Thompson is my spirit animal
Shit he was awesome.
A LEGEND R.I.P Dr. Thompson
Did you realize he has a drinking problem ofcourse I have a drinking problem its right here in front of me lol 😂 That cracked me up
That comment by Keith was legendary "one died and one was born, so yeh the same people, the same amount of people left as came in".
I tuned in for Keith! 😂
Hunter and Dave riffing on each other is pure genius.
28:34 You can see a glimpse of those eyes,the eyes only a mad man sees through.
Rest in peace you legend.
God dammit that was badass
28:00 mark when the acid kicks in lol
Jesus Christ I love Hunter S. Thompson.
Damn Right
“Is this a gift?”
“In a sense, it’s a bomb”
Hahahahaha hunter was so savage af can you imagine ever bringing a bomb onto the set of Ellen? 😂😂no
Bravo.Conan....The Irish.
- If you're innocent you can do anything - Hunter S. Thompson
What a fucking legend. If I'm not like that when I'm old fucking kill me I don't want to do it
holy god jesus ...
No ear protection shooting the M60, hunters a badass
no, he is deaf bro
All the host needs to do is sit back , let Hunter talk and its a great show no matter what!
The master, the doctor and,his style of writing gonzo journalism .
"Hi, I'm Hunter Thompson, and I haven't been paid yet."
Uh oh.
Hunter, lemme ask you a question, why didn't you take off your jacket before we started taping?
I wasn't sure ... it's cold behind me here, and hot in front of me, and I wasn't sure which one was gonna prevail.
Today's 20th feb 2022. This is the day hunter died. He's my hero
It seemed Hunter loved making people a little uneasy as a gage 😂
Only 5 minutes in and already lmfaoo. " f*ck you bear "
imagine hinter in the age of social media.... holy crap. And you thought Dan Rather's facebook page was interesting.
Too weird to live. Too rare to die.
"poor baby"
;)
Where is this bar that has a selection of guns?? That looks like a great weekend.
Roy Slapped hunter's house
Owl Creek Farm
On that concert one died and one was born, so basically the same amount of people left.
8 people died and 8 children were born
Missing Hunter. I’m glad he was relatively coherent here.
My stepfather blew his brains out 21 years ago and I would not recommend it.
I consider myself a suicide survivor. Having cleaned up the scene - it’s ugly and scarring.
Don’t do the suicide thing.
Excuse me, are you saying you cleaned your step fathers suicide?
@@smucklehead89 Yes. I cleaned up the aftermath of the scene. The trauma and grief of my stepfather’s suicide will never really be gone.
@@rebeccao8895 I find that very hard to believe
O the days of H.S.T. in his prime, which was all the time. The nostalgia factor hits off big with the v.h.s. recording.
Richards & Thompson are so HIGH they jus ramblin, an it makes more sense than majority of straight sober squares.
I wonder what Thompson's energy transformed into after his physical vessel perished....
Prolly a Golden Eagle or some apex predator.🤔🤔🤔😈🍄🍄

was the the first remote?

“Let’s get down to brass tacks, how much for the ape”?
28:20 when the drugs kick in hard
I watched Hunter talk to Keith Richards but be damned if I have a clue what they talked about.
Why is this video too tall?
paxwallacejazz don't worry about it. Be grateful it exists
was wondering the same
It was filmed using only a 3rd eye and an iPhone
Legendary was the phone call to HST the morning of the twin towers.... "..... It's all about asking the right questions..."
What is Keith playing at 16:37?
27:40 He is so fucking high
The coke we never knew
JOHNNYBEERHANDS S sadly true
who is the girl next to him at 30:55?
Carly Simon
This was the snuff film guy right?
That not a bear, is a monkey XD
How high do you think Hunter was during this?
Already
That Reporter in the beginning is so exhausting to listen too, also has no respect and honor for a legend like hunter
😂
19:40, ha ha hah...
pure Gonzo
Holy shit i love these 2 guys but i cant understand half the shit there saying
Wasn't he also alongside Depp in Fear And Loathing??
Looks like Johny depp
M Allegra which is why he played him I imagine

Hunter could use an M60, 3 shot bursts were nice and I for one would not like him shooting at me ! He would not be shooting over your head!
lmao at him total tweaker moment at 27:57
cocaine
11:00- Two men who can hardly make themselves understood...
Nice to see Conan is pro machine gun.
I wish Joe Rogan could take the time machine back to Hunter*z time do an interview.. ..
That'd be the ultimate 🥏 awesome!
Jus a real, unadulterated human,. Not special, just no walls or give-a-fucks true individual.
Randy Williams Right. He didn’t care about his two wives, his son or grandson. Blowing his brains out was a true act of love for himself, also. Give us a break! He was a loser!
Man... Letterman was really mean. He knew hunters reputation.
