Fan Friday Request:
"Hi, my name is Jacob Jax.
I love all the funny stuff Mr. Letterman did over the years, but I also the love the more serious and moving stuff he did. I'd love it if you could post his interview with Christopher Reeve after Chris had his injury, where they talk about Spinal cord injury and research.
Also towards the end of the run of The Late Show, Mr. Letterman started doing warm up and taking questions from the audience, and some clips of that were posted on the official show channel. I'd love to see those again, as they really showed what a sharp stand up comic Mr. Letterman still is when he wants to be.
Thanks again for starting this channel and for all the great content
regards
Jacob Jax"

What a beautiful interview. Accepted his fate with incredible dignity, grace, and even humor. Refused to feel sorry for himself and instead told us to feel bad for those who were less privileged than him. An even bigger Superman in real life than he was on screen. He will never be forgotten.

This guy‘s mind was so quick he had to wait for the machine to breathe so he could speak. The guy was truly one of the best standup Hollywood actors because his self image didn’t convoluted his character. Not only do I miss Christopher reeves but I miss people who had self-respect and a drive to see the best in humanity and not only fight for it but sacrifice his own bodily autonomy for that venture. Bless this man and bless those who fight for the same cause even though they are not in the limelight anymore their work still is so important.

@@chaelodoul9401 I truly believe that he truly believed he could walk again, and that the possibility of him doing that was so far in the future it wasn't really conceivable that he would survive to see the day. However, by "keeping the faith" in that regard, he was able to engage people and bring them into the cause in a way that saying "I'll be here for life" would not have done. So it's possible that he maintained that posture against his better judgement so as to attract the widest possible audience to his goal. He had to believe he'd walk again, if he was to get the most interest in his plight and raise the most funds for research and innovation. Having said that, I too felt that it was like a broken record after five years of him saying it, because it seemed further and further out of reach the more he said it was getting nearer and near.

Thank you so much for sharing this. Chris Reeve was such a noble and talented man. My best friend in college was a quadriplegic (from an accident in the air force on his 21st birthday). Paul was a genius... I learned so much from him, and only wish he'd lived long enough to discover what AI is only now on the verge of offering a promising treatment to those suffering from paralysis. I truly believe that one day there will be a way to heal those suffering from spinal cord injuries --at the intersection of technology, AI and neuroscience. ❤

Chris was my hollywood hero, the ultimate superhero, and then I met him. I can genuinely say he was a truly incredible guy, I was so lucky to call Robin Williams a friend, and through him I came to know Chris. I myself have a spinal injury but nothing in comparison to Chris, but I remember Chris saying to me hey it could be worse you could be me. I was humbled by his bravery and his drive to find cures for spinal injury, through scientific research. I've fought for better help for the disabled and in days of pain I experience, I here Chris voice in my head, as if he was still in the room, and he says, what ever you do my friend, never give up the fight and never silence your voice, take the negative and turn it to a positive. I miss you my dear friends but you definitely live on in my memories.
