    It’s heartwarming to see Jason’s costars and the Power Rangers fanbase express their condolences, but it’s baffling to me that Jason’s death isn’t receiving nearly as much attention from the general public or coverage from the mainstream media. This guy was the face of a movement. His name was synonymous with the Power Rangers brand. For all intents and purposes, he helped build a multi-billion dollar franchise that has withstood the test of time for nearly 30 years now. His legacy deserves far more recognition.

    He meant more to 90s kids than any Marvel "star." For many of us, he was our very first "hero." Tommy was a dastardly villain that could take on all the Rangers alone, and became the leader in the truest redemption arc. That's what makes a true hero, not just being the main character. What a legend.

      Honestly, I loved the episodes where past rangers come in to help out. The episodes with Tommy are good, and I think that if there was a Power Rangers special planned to celebrate his legacy, I think that the one person to give him proper restect would be Austin St. John, AKA Jason. Also, I've always been a fan of Power Rangers as it's been a part of my childhood and even gave me inspiration to do martial arts. But, I honestly only got to Gold belt before having to drop out since my family was always moving. But, I'll always remember JDF not just as Tommy Oliver, but also as a guy who is an inspiration for kids and adults everywhere. May the Power protect you always, Jason David Frank. Your legacy will live on.

      Similarly. Before the Rangers, I didn't even know there were white tigers 😅 However, after Jason's character became a white ranger, I found a magazine about white tigers and dreamed of seeing their live. How happy I was when I saw a white tiger at the zoo! 😅
      And at the same time, when Jason's character became a white ninja ranger, I liked the falcons. And I also dreamed of seeing it live. How glad I was when, at the age of 27, I was traveling by train and on one railway platform I saw a man with a bird on his arm. I immediately realized that it was a falcon and got out of the train, fortunately the stop was long. I approached the man, asked if it was a falcon, he confirmed it. I asked him to hold it, the man transplanted the falcon onto my arm. I was overjoyed at that moment.

    Jason didn't know when to quit and I love that about his character. Giving up wasn't in his vocabulary. They gave him the right position in the group, the leader.
    Man, we took a huge hit with hearing of his passing away and took us off guard. It shows how depression can really impact someone’s life and can change one’s behavior as well. I pray whoever is going through this that it's ok to seek help. It does not make you weak. It makes you stronger and shows self-awareness. Believe me you're stronger than you know. Don't let anybody make you think otherwise. I know that problems can be overwhelming in the moment and it may seem that there's no way out of it but that problem is temporary. Taking your life is a permanent action that you can't come back from and you're separating yourself from the people who truly love you based on a false narrative that you don't matter. You matter a lot. You're life is precious. You are beautiful and strong. Trust in yourself that you can get out of it. You will. Sorry for the long paragraph. I felt compelled to write this. Rest in peace Jason. Definitely one of my fav power rangers. He inspired me to take up karate. This show really was a big part of my childhood. Thanks for the memories

    Seeing Tommy pass away, broke my heart...he was one of the pure souls of the Rangers. I cried down due to a great actor, a great person gone.

    The world nor the universe will never be the same without him. For a moment, I thought he could outlive all of us. I am really gonna miss him so much. To me, he will always be the number one Mightiest Power Ranger.

    I was very numbed and devastated at first by his death. I cannot believe it!
    I used to watch Power Rangers on VCD and on the TV broadcast when I was a little kid back in the mid-2000s. Seeing Tommy Oliver got me mesmerized because of his fighting skills and acted as a Power Ranger. He was a national treasure of the Power Rangers franchise and my childhood hero. It breaks my heart that he's gone.
    R.I.P Jason David Frank/Tommy Oliver. Truly the greatest Power Ranger of all time. Once a Ranger, Always a Ranger. Forever and ever.

    As a 90s kid, the Green Ranger was always the standout for me - the Dragonflute was the first Power Rangers toy my dad purchased for me. Thank you JDF for everything you did for the franchise and RIP to the best and most charismatic Ranger. Legacy lives on my guy x

    Over the course of the video, I started to feel joy from the life Jason David Grank lived, as opposed to feeling mostly gloomy over his tragic death. He was a legend.
    Much respect for his effort in making the best of life and giving joy to others.

    Tommy was such a great character from my childhood. From his start in the series as a villain to the legendary hero that he became, I knew the value of redemption, the importance of loyalty and how sacrifice can be harsh but necessary through him. RIP Jason, thanks for making my childhood awesome! 😓

    Far and away the best Ranger the series has seen in its lifetime. I always kept up with JDF via social media and was absolutely stunned to hear of his passing. There will never be another like him.

    I was a bit too young to remember him from the original series so for me, I realised he was a big deal when I watched Forever Red and Dino Thunder. If only because he became a mentor to another generation of rangers.

    He was an amazing actor and in person he was down to earth, genuine, affable and amicable to his fans. Legendary ranger and greatest of them all. The franchise will certainly miss him and his awesome work. Rest in peace Jason David Frank aka Tommy. May your soul rest in peace. God be with him and his family. You and your work will never be forgotten.

    Truly a wonderful testament to an iconic actor who inspired many by portraying an amazingly complex and layered character. Not many actors own the role so completely and thoroughly that no else can . Jason David Frank joins the likes of Peter Cullen, Robin Willams and Chadwick Boseman as iconic actors who can never be replaced.
