    Betina was my great grandmother. It is incredible to be able to see your great grand mother and hear about how she met her husband. I grew up not too far from her in So Cal and we would visit but was too young to remember much. My grandfather was quite a fun man- I see where it came from. Thanks RUclips!

      +Tami OBrien So delighted to hear from you-- thanks for taking the time to add a comment! I assume you're aware that Betina was on two other YBYL shows, both available on this channel. She was a real hoot!

    I like Betina she is funny as hell! And Devine's son is very attractive. He was born the same yr as my dad 1935. Dad was also good-looking. Dad is deceased. I'm addicted to these You Bet Your Life videos. Groucho is hilarious!

    As always, I'm so grateful you've uploaded these wonderful episodes. Paul Anderson, who overcame a childhood kidney ailment to become an Olympic weightlifter, died in August 1994 at age 61 in Vidalia, Georgia where he had run a home for juvenile delinquents for 30 years. Dennis Divine is still with us at age 77, wrote a book about his father and became a director & cinematographer.

    As per-usual, I'm so very grateful that you've taken the time and uploaded these wonderful and memorable episodes of 'YBYL'. (I watched them when they first aired back in the day '50's-early-'60's!) Now, after a bit of Google 'research': Paul Anderson, who overcame a childhood kidney ailment and became a Gold Medal Winning Olympic weightlifter, died in August 1994 at age 61 in Vidalia, Georgia where he had run a home for juvenile delinquents for over 30-years. Dennis Devine is still with us at age 81. He authored a book about his movie star father, Andy Devine, and became a fairly successful director and cinematographer; working mainly on horror films such as: 'Canyon Passage' (1946), 'Lafayette Escadrille' (1958) and others.

    Paul Anderson’s back lift is still the record I believe! My father and Uncle where very strong,my uncle was European freestyle wrestling champion and could lift a table with 3 people on it with his teeth!My father could lift up the back end of our Ford!I got their strength and at 16 lifted 250 lbs over my head!I became a champion weightlifter on a combined Army/Air Force Team out of Colorado Springs! We competed all over the US and won a lot of Championships with the other Services,Civilian teams and even went into prisons to compete against prison teams!

    Paul Anderson, billed as “the world’s strongest man,” performed at my high school roughly 20 years after this show. He demonstrated many feats of strength. Two I still remember were lifting eight high-school boys at once, and driving a 16-penny nail through a 2x4 with one blow, using only his hand.

      @@christinesutton6507 True, but inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index, between 1957 and 2019 was never constant and was typically below 5% per year. For example, in the last 62 years there were only about 10 years when the CPI was at or over 5% (this was during the 1970s and early 1980s). There are inflation calculators on the web that provide a year by year graph of the CPI inflation rate and are helpful in determine changes in buying power.
