- Hollywood Boulevard's original Superman performer is plotting his return to the Hollywood Walk of Fame just months after a mugger stole his costume and money. Kristine Lazar reports.
This Man stood with courage as Superman, brought many smiles and made Hollywood blvd what it is today. Donations are fine, but what he really needed was some one kind as he was - to help him build up again while living for free.. until he would be back on his own. He’s gone now. And had much more going for him... Truly Very Tragic 😢
He was a meth head, lied about his attack for money and then sold his new costume for more meth money, before finally od'ing. idiot.
So sad to have his life end this way. Rest In Peace Superman 🙁
He actually even bears a resemblance to Christopher Reeve!
Christopher Hoyt if I had visited NYC that'd make me smile lol... kind of a trip though considering he's not around
God bless you sir. God bless humanity
Rip Christopher Dennis aka Hollywood Superman
Idk why people comments bad reviews on him...idk why people wanna rob him, steal his Superman outfit and took all his things away...it’s sad that he’s homeless 😔 but it’s also good to get a new Superman outfit 😊 😃 this man lived a half terrible😔 and half happy life😊
Haizzz, he really put a lot of smiles on a lot of people... he truly is the Hollywood Superman...anyways, Rest In Peace good man...you will always be loved and remembered...
We love you ❤️ 💕
God bless you sir. I believe in Superman and I'm 66 years old.
😢 Even Superman needs saving sometimes too, if I run into him I'm buying him 🍔 and a prepaid cell phone.📱
I worked at the Hollywood wax museum as a teenager on the weekends and he would be out there taking pictures with tourists he was very sweet and put smiles on people’s faces.
superman is a hero. and everybody is a hero of their own life. you don't have to use a superman costume to be a hero, all u need to do is doing the best for yourself , for your family, your friends, and people around you today.
This poor guy had a very, very sad life. Rip. : (
May he RIP. Tragic that he was found dead in a clothing donation bin. Must have been a drug overdose.
I think he frooze to death
@@amarel187 In Los Angeles? Southern, Califronia in November? Not possible.
True RIP
Amarel 87 naw, he definitely died in a donation bin from drug o.d.
He was looking for warm clothes for him and another person he cared for in a wheelchair, he got stuck
I just saw a video yesterday that he was found dead on the street. How incredibly sad. It's absolutely disgusting the way this "great country" just tosses the mentally and emotionally ill to the gutter because they "can't find the money". BS!!!!!!!
this guy earned so much in the past. the problem is he doesn't know how to handle money and this is now the result.
Good for him and more power .. And may God-bless him
What a sad story. This guy really looked the part and would have pulled in good money with all the tourist foot traffic in Hollywood Blvd. It's sad he never resolved his psych issues and drug addiction. Things are not how they always look on the outside.
This is HeartBreaking He Was My Idle As a Kid 😢
Unfortunately people donated close to 8 grand to someone they didnt know had a tragic drug problem that eventually led to a bizarre death inside a donation box. Last thing a drug addict needs is 8k in donations. They need rehab and a halfway house.
What's with these hate comments
He was addicted to Meth.
mike stoklasa huehue because of your making 900 in a night and you work 5 nights a week.......I'm sorry losing 1 nights work will NOT make u lose your apartment ...... that's ALOT of MONEY so...most of us aren't delusional, we catch on quick that if that's the case, he's definitely smoking ALOT of crack TO LOSE HIS APARTMENT.... use your brain
because nostalgia ?
Omg how can such handsome beautiful man superman can be on the streets hes like a american symbol. Should be living good and safe. He still like can act in movies whynotgiving him a job??!!!
Hint: The answer to your question is in the question itself - one keyword: America.
Because he soul wasn't sold.
Rest In Peace.
Not all of us are skilled to be the robot worker we are trying to be and people helping people that are trying to help other people is a good effort and being a human with a good goal
He is a Great Guy!!! I met him ,....a Superman!!!
Rest In Peace
wow these bad comments on a guy that tried to work not hurt people,,its alot of evil out there
jesus bless this man
RIP you will always be the superman in our hearts
He could have just went as Clark Kent till he could buy another suit
Sad Hamill lol that would have been funny if he went out as Kent between suits.
I know him he's so cool I haven't seen him in a Detroit minute wow I hope he's doing good Hollywood and that's so much for helping him and other homeless people out there like me and him and Hollywood let's try to make a end to homelessness real talk
He should have the role of old man superman if they make a movie of superman when he's old
When he says that for some time he loses faith on humanity I remember that Superman is an Alien with godly strength and power but his archnemesis is Lex Luthor which is a regular human who took advantage of him all the time. But the people is what keeping him strong because superman finds strong sense of justice in humanity the same as Superman fans make a movement to continue his passion and help him. The resemblance of them is somehow close.
whenever i feel low in life..and think that truth and good people are no more in this world..but aftr watchng this i know some people always mske this wrld btr....but i feel pain why gud people have to strgle so much and sadness and so many things...only gud things happen to bad people
RIP
He is a real superman 💟
I disagree with those criticizing his job choice... seems smart and aware enough to know the benefits and risks of a job like that... He did walk with ALOT the day he got mugged in NYC. Prob not a smart move, lesson learned pretty hard. Still when done right with the charisma and investment into attire (that costume didn't look cheap) as well as improvement, and the drive from a job you love, it can be a huge talent in itself. If he wanted to take the risk to do something he loves instead of hating himself for getting a 9 to 5 job he hates, I truly respect that. The love of his job I can safely presume attributed to the success that came before he got mugged.
Faith in humanity restored
Dia SuperHero diFilmnya Tapi Dia butuh pertolongan orang2 diDuniaNyata untuk tetap bertahan hidup
Great story
R.I.P Street Superman..
He looks like Reeve
RIP😔
RIP THE MAN OF STEEL superman
Even SuperMan need help every once in a while.
So this guy almost turned into the Joker
THANK YOU SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT, IF YOU COMPARED THE 2019 JOKER MOVIE TO THIS GUYS DOWN FALL IT ALMOST COMPARES TOGETHER
I hope you found some better padding for the costume than what you were using in May or June of 2017. Cheers, Picard.
Bunch of lowlife out there hurting a man thats trying to survive by playing superman and getting the spirits up humanity is pathetic and careless thankfully there's hope and about 30% of humanity is humble and actually cares
I like the documentary Chris was in with Jennifer confession of a super hero ..you can say I became a fan of Jennifer and Chris .. Jennifer dating Casper from starship troopers they look very happy she was doing a utube thing lady’s la la it was funny but they don’t do much any more on it ...Chris left his wife Bonnie for some women playing cat women on Hollywood Blvd I thought it was wrong .you can see it on RUclips in a interview look up comic book geeks episode 46..feel so bad that someone beat him up ..I think there’s more to this story .his story keeps changing first Chris says he was walking home and he was beat up with golf clubs . Then Another story he says he was at the beach when the beating took place ..you can see for yourself by watching this video .. I will find the other video and post it ..please don’t get me wrong I think Chris seems like a nice person and I do believe he was very emotionally hurt from what happen and he has did a lot for Hollywood Blvd ..
Chris lives in his own fantasy world and he has always fabricated stories. I think it is a defence mechanism and he needs emotional crutches with more empathetic stories.
I feel sorry for this guy is he stil in a bad way ?
He is dead. He doed today, November 2019. They found his body inside a clothing donation bin. My guess is a heroin overdose. He went inside the bin to sleep because he was homeless. Maybe it was murder. Reports say he was found head first inside of the bin.
Great
I am batman i love you superman
They actually took all his stuff away and most of that money was never put to use by him people around him took advantage of him and his wife divorced him as well .. give this guy a break !
Why the fuck haven’t DC donated yet if this was a marvel character Disney would have made him rich by now
Omg my heart
Are you kidding me. I could of lived without knowing that the uplifting ending where he was back doing what he loved ended in his death via drug overdose. Fuck me.
Superman better stop doing lines of kryptonite
Peter G I thought I was the only one who read through this bullshit LoL
😔
i hate people more now.. that guy that did this to him is a scum bag.. also why is a roof over your head food in your belly power water a shower cost money these things in life should be all provided its simple build apartments that are free.. things you want ie tvs laptops internet you work for.... the basics in life free.. its greed that makes rent go up its greed that makes people want money for you to live in.. there could be a end to homeless ness if companies and or people just gave away homes etc and atleast water and power was provided to cook and take a shower and bathroom.. but nooooo companies want mooooooooooooooney and more money
So he sold everything he had for drugs
Wow he is aging! I saw some videos with him and in each one he’s getting older. It’s sad because soon he could lose his character. 😭
Denizen it's called crack and alcohol
If I went to Hollywood and saw him I’d give him my $100 I don’t give a shit if my family gave it to me I’m paying that guy
Why ?
This man looks like Christopher Reeves..
so he has been barely getting by for 25 years?
No, he used to make a lot of money when there was less characters on the strip. Now that place is over-saturated with costume characters so tips are not as great as they once where. Watch Confessions of a Superhero. All will be revealed.
Se os americanos gostam tanto do Super homem , porque não cuidam da imagem que ainda temos
Este homem precissa boa alimentação cuidados dentários , ser feliz
I do feel sorry how he ended up. However, it was of his own making. He was a habitual drug user and addict. It wasn't societies fault, it was his alone. Get real people!
Continue from first comment..( here’s second video we’re now he says he was attack at beach look up ...Hollywood Superman kickstarter
😢
Sounds like bullshit. He had thousands of pounds worth of memorabilia. Other sources say he was just an addict
He needs to quit his smoking. It has aged him tremendously and also sucked up his money
and meth
There’s a more personal interview on RUclips and I highly recommend people to watch it.
Jon Jon Giang link please
He needs a wheelchair!
He’s the real dead.
Christopher Dennis IRS really wants to talk to you you owe lots of money to the government
Homeless but still has the money for hair dye. 👌
Oliver Kalamata Because hair dye is extremely expensive, right?
Hollywood homeless 😎 is different than homeless. Gotta watch out for the Hollywood fashion 👮.
They sell hair dye at the dollar store.
Oliver Kalamata I noticed that too
So what. What would you like to tell us? Please be human and let him have a bit more dignity.
BS🤬😡
Lorris Hall you good ma nigga?
What?
You're BS
Super Crackhead
Emilio Javier What a prick nah he got fuckin Super Robbed
Emilio Javier
What's so special about this person? He's just one of the hundreds of millions of people who need help.
Alex Whitby And youre special because you dedicate yourself to picking things up and putting them down? (Weights) foh muppet.
