    I want to hug this guy! So much wisdom!!! I had a half sister who died from kidney failure. Same dad, different mom. I had my kidney transplant at 3. I was the youngest, but she died when I was 10. She was 26. My uncle killed himself by suicide. Bullet to head. In 2021, my dad then kills himself. Exactly the same way my uncle did. I’m on my 6th year of my second kidney that I got in 2018. Striving, healing and admire the discipline that this world has lost today. After seeing the movie and hearing Kevin speak. I can tell his dad was in no way like the movie. He’s like my uncles on my mom’s side. Filipino heavy core discipline. Respectful manners and you get the spanking and strict talks. I see it in Kevin. I see how these brothers all loved but the drugs and in my case, my dad fell after being a tough guy and not wanting help because he could not deal with his grief. He had a hard time seeing me in hospitals because it reminded him of my sister. Now, I truly feel like the scene when my dad killed himself, he is walking with my uncle Mike and my sister and my grandparents. Heart wrenching to the guts. But like Kevin, and anyone who has lived through tragedy, we heal and find our ways either by writing and figuring out how happiness and healing plays a part through pain. That there’s always a life ahead and heck…. I’m breathing today and so grateful I got to spend so many memories with my dad and have a few with my sister and my uncle Mike who I was told loved me and spoiled me.

    Am so glad my friend Kevin is telling how wonderful jack was as father. Jack was a wonderful father. Let me tell you the boys were wonderful boys. They had amazing parents. Remember when Mike passed all the people come up telling us , how Mike had been helping people out with money to so they could pay bills. The boys loved there parents very much. Kevin and Pam have done amazing job raising their children and grandchildren. I am very thankful for the wonderful memories of Chris and all of them. The VonErichs will live forever. God bless Texas

    I am so glad Keven cleared things up about the movie and his dad. Another things they left out a brother not to mention I don’t believe there was jealousy between them. I also know from some of Kevin’s interviews that things weren’t true. I wish that when people make movies that are like documentaries they would do their research

  • @rottensnake2493
    @rottensnake2493 6 месяцев назад +6

    Kevin has my deepest sympathy for losing all his brothers and I get he really loved his dad, wants to defend him and feels the movie was too harsh on the old man but it didn't even show his father beating his sons and if he or anyone thinks pushing your sons this hard and beating them is such a great idea, ask yourself why only one brother survived. You can't blame it all on drugs. People become addicts for a reason and that reason is trauma. Thank God Kevin survived anyway and all the best to him. I hope his sons break the cycle of family violence for the next generation.

It was so much fun. To be on the floor wrestling each other .. Kevin Keep Pushing, I use to call him Tarzan, because he never wore shoes. Praying for him .

    Kevin is a genuine human being. I would love to read his book. My Son loved watching these wrestlers in the 80’s. I hope Kevin sees this, I am sending love and prayers for comfort. I have lost most of my Family members and close friends, including my Son. I know the pain of it. Every family has secrets. I have not seen the movie, but much appreciation to Kevin for allowing us into his story. It can’t have been easy. Kevin owes us nothing, but he wants us to know these things. Maybe this can save someone else. ❤️❤️❤️

    @jhgfdsertuiokjhg 4 месяца назад +2

    Please write a book Kevin. The movie was good but failed to capture the true story. Partly because there is not enough time in a movie to capture the Von Erich family story. It would make a good episodic one-off series. I still can’t believe they completely wrote out Chris. I know there were too many characters to cover in a movie but it is really disrespectful to his memory

    Kevin doesn’t sound like he’s too fond of the movie but I can understand why. It’s got to be gut wrenching living through all the tragedies again. Folks, I will recommend on WWE Network, I think it’s called the World Class Tragedies of Von Erich’s. It came out a long time ago but that documentary is probably one of the best I’ve seen ever about the Von Erich’s. Gary Hart is part of it, and he watched these guys grow up so he had some great stories.

    I think Kevin is an absolute sweetheart. He don’t say a bad thing about anybody. I loved the movie but I believe Fritz was not like that and he loved all his boys very much. I can’t wait to read his book. I’m from Texas and you better believe Texas loved the VonErichs !! You didn’t dare say a bad thing about any of them. I lived in Dallas about 5 miles from the Texas sportatorium.I was raised on this family. I feel like they’re part of my life. Grew up watching wrestling and we loved the VonErichs. I have so many fond memories in my early life and they were a big part of it. Me and my brother would play wrestle with my dad and beg for the iron claw to be put on us. I’d yell squeeze harder when he done it to me and loved every minute of it too.. We liked the figure four leg lock too 😂… I hope Kevin lives a long long time I love listening to his stories. Kevin was my fav outta the boys I won’t lie.. Ty for doing this video I really enjoyed it.. Love you Kevin!!❤

    I just saw it. First, I LOVED it. But, yeah, a lot of things you could get annoyed about. It's a Hollywood dramatization, I get it. The biggest thing for me was leaving the character Chris out. They basically combined Chris and Mike into one brother.

  • @Mntguy-nr9vl
    @Mntguy-nr9vl 4 месяца назад +8

    There's a difference between discipline and abuse.
    I'm going to get a lot of flack for this but this looks like someone who has PTSD.
    I'm not convinced the dad was a saint I'm sorry it's not the movie it's watching this man's behavior and how he says his father was wonderful and that his father would whoop their asses I don't think you can have both.
    I'm not against discipline but I think there was violence in the home otherwise they would have had a strong foundation almost all of them ended up on drugs and steroids and they all killed themselves That's not a stable Christian house That's lies propaganda and BS.
    For Kevin to come on here and say he "disciplined" his kids You learn what you know.

    They could have done this type of movie on the Hallmark channel no disrespect to the family. I think we the public want to see and hear about the tragedies and the successes also. I totally understand out of respect for the family not wanting to go really deep into it and wanting to make a sort of feel good type of movie if you can call it that but we the fans would love an in depth documentary. Yes you can obviously go to RUclips and find a whole bunch of stories but it would be cool to have one that is compiled of almost everything you can find in one.

    I believe kevin 100% but something is not being said imo . If you have a close loving family that are always there for each other and also all so talented and loved why all the drug use to numb reality from a young age and why so much Suicide? Again im not doubting nothing being said but somthing had to be missing for so many members of one family to be so hopeless.. yes kerry lost his leg but god gave him the strength to still be at the top of the wrestling world and still be successful so why so much self loathing? Something just dont seem to add up..

      I think we're missing the bigger picture I can bet almost all of them took steroids and that f**** up your mind A lot of people that take steroids commit suicide especially people that take it to succeed and end up failing and this family had a lot of misfortune.
      They only showed one needle in the whole movie but I have to believe it was more prolific than that.
      Then you get into drug addiction which is rumored to be for at least one of the brothers possibly two.
      It's not hard to understand the pressure these men were on to succeed whether it was put on by their father or on themselves we will never know.
      It's also been shown that mental illness runs in families.
