If more people thought this way, society would be a hell of a lot better place. Jim Brown is strength and integrity at its absolute finest.

Jim Brown,the best running back in NFL history! Nuff said.

Had this man not been a football player for all to appreciate, I would really like to have seen what would have happened had he had the desire and educational background to actively pursue public office. He's exceptionally bright and well-spoken. He would have made a great civil servant at the higher levels.

love live this man! what a power house, on the field and in an interview!

guy was the best football player of all time. the biggest, strongest, and fastest player on the field in his day. no one dominated like this guy

"I paid my dam taxes and I wanted my dam rights" ... i like it...simple and to the point. This dude is old school and is all about class, respect, education.... rock on, JB....ROCK ON!

Having benefited from his AmerICan basketball program, I have nothing but rave reviews of this man. He is honest, cared about each of us individually and gave us solutions to problems rather than judgement. It's refreshing to see genuinely good people still walk this earth.

Jim Brown ! Sportman and actor ! WOW !!

bensinger seems like a relaly cool guy to sit down with, i've seen him do interviews with boxers too and he seemed like he really cared about learning from them.

Hell Yeah he's Oldschool! A real G.

My hero, great guy, best runner ever!

Great man great wisdom love you Jim Brown glad I have same last name. The GOAT!!!

You either like Jim or dont, I think he's great says it like it is.

Jim Brown is so freakin badass. The guy is a legend, he is honest, and speaks the truth!

He's so intelligent. There's not many men like him around any more.

Great interview with a truly great person and the best running back ever.

Jimmy Brown...Simply the Best

Jim Brown is my mentor, even now i'm a Steeler fan

Jim Brown a REAL American HERO !!!!!!

jim brown is a great man

Beautiful. I have met Jim Brown several times, and he always treated me with kindness, humility, and a big heart. Thank you, sir. GOD BLESS YOU, BROTHER.

the greatest football player in world history

This dude is solid, he knows what he is saying. Respect

So impressive! This guy was an awesome football palyer, I saw him every Sunday in the sixties and NO ONE comes close. I saw him standing in the lobby of the Hyatt in Chicago, a really BIG man. I wished I had gone up to him and asked for his autograph.

MISTER Brown, Thank you for the American attitude. Thank you for the example. Mr. Bensinger, Simply un-believable how you elicited this portrait of The Brown. Thanks to you both, you're quite a team. :^)

THE GREATEST EVER!!

words of wisdom from life experiences and from a very talented great football player

What Jim emulates is what many lack. He has been one that stands on principles which he has been part on page affecting lives daily.

Great, great man.

my words on Jim brown the man was hard and wrong I watched his play on the football field and it was nothing less then great. I wish Jim a long life .

JIM BROWN IS A REAL BLACK MAN!!! Plus he is NOT wearing an earring in his ear!!! WE LOVE U JIM BROWN!!!

A REAL MAN,,,,,,I love this brother,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,ONELOVE.

nothing but respect for him. always love what he stood for off of the field than what he did on it.

I was reading the book Jim Brown and this guy ask who is he? I said Who is he?? Who are you??!! this man is the greatest back in the history of the back. No one else have show how to be a real man than Jim. I wonder why most young people don't know him....

This guy is the real deal

I first knew him as a movie star, that was when I was young in Africa, after I moved to United States I discovered he actually made his name in football, he was also equally good in basketball, Lacrosse, and track (Wikipedia), I love this guy, he is multi talented, yet he never forgets where he started from, he is always willing to help people who are struggling, trying to bring down violence in black community, he is 75 yrs old and a role model to all of us.

This is dignity personified in a man!

What an athlete and what a man...

Jim Bown is a person I have always looked up to. He was the best of the best when football was still a real sport. If he was a youngster in this age he would still be the best of the best. Jim Brown then got into acting and again he mastered whatever he did. In the movie "The Dirty Dozen," stood out like a veteran actor. Mr. Brown spoke out often concerning race relations and didn't shy away from controversial subject. In sports, I was a running back and the only number I wanted was 32. Now I am 61, and I still look up the Mr. Brown. At times I don't agree with him but I know this much he is given every subject a fair shake. Jim Brown Played for Syracuse university. Jim Brown, Ernie Davis and Floyd Little all wore the number 44 (as well as other decent running backs.). This number was retired in November of 2005. If you look at the Syracuse Jerseys From 2005 and beyond all the football jerseys pay tribute to this number. The jersey numbers have angled lines with in the number itself. The lines run parallel with each other and the angle of these paralleled numbers are at a perfect 44 degree angle. Mr. Brown deserves all the accolades he gets. He is a person of virtue, decency and character. I love Jim Brown and pray that more people follow his example of how to live and not what's coming out of professional ball now. I'm not saying this man is perfect but he is a man that exemplifies the qualities and character of what I think is important for men to follow. Thank you Jim Brown.

He's so smart!

He's a very wise man.

Credit to the man, I know him Amercan football but also from the UFC early stages. this guy is an absolute legend, a supern man and human.

I wish you well😍

i love mr. brown. he speaks the truth!! even the times he is wrong, he gets his point across!!

Wow Jim Brown is awesome.

Big Jim Brown, king of the Town

Dude is a legend. He is just old school and naturally still believes he is in his time. Look at how people used to see football when it began to become popular; they thought it was savagery.

One of the most influential Americans of the 30th Century.

jim brown is awesome

Jim Brown Is A Class Act

Jim Brown is a credit to the human race...dignity

There are only TWO greatest of all time that NO ONE can doubt. Jim Brown-RB Jerry Rice-WR

Yes it was.

jim brown,john wayne,muhammed ali,clint eastwood,george formen and ppl like these might not have been angels but they sure as hell were real men, back in the days wen america was known for haveing men

Great role model

6:41....wow...deep!!!!! Necessary to understand, period,....

funkmaster, if you have heard other interviews he has done he doesnt just speak on african american slavery, he talks about the LONG history of slavery. from the irish to the african americans. hes just tryin to show the young people the contrast between then and now. LONG LIVE THE GREATEST!!!!

Well said Jim, I could agree more if I said it myself.

11 years ago

Jim brown....Ernie Davis....Floyd Little....Simply the best running backs ever to live.....if all of them were to take a picture togerther... i would hang it up in my room and never take it down....lol i just finished watching the express

@CobainLennon8094 thanks Cobain, I will checkout this video, I have also read his autobiography, "out of bounds", also written by him, the most interesting autobiography I have ever read, there was never a dull moment on each page, he was ruthlessly honest about his life, and I know this video will be good also because there is never a dull moment in the life of Jim Brown.

"Dont yell at me big, Mr. Brown!"

Black Powerful Man,Words of Up-Liftment Come On My People Open Your EYE'S

Despite my other comment, I would like to say overall he does have some good points in this interview.

We are just having a discussion, its cool. I really wasn't trying to attack Jim Brown, the adversity he has overcome in his lifetime is inspirational to a person of any race. It just struck a nerve when slavery gets brought into a conversation about NFL players who make millions of dollars and live these ridicious lifestyles. I wasn't trying to put words in his mouth, but I guess I should have listened to more of the interview before posting a comment. Jim Brown is the man, Go Browns!

Deep..

consciousness!!! KNOW YOUR HISTORY!

Jim Brown was even better at lacrosse than football - lacrosse being his favorite sport, by far. There is a 'Jim Brown Rule' in lacrosse b/c of his dominance. He said if he had a week of sports he'd spend 6 days playing lacrosse, and play football on Sunday.

What happened to GB’s hair?

FIREBALL

Original Gangsta . The Rebels

jim brown seems very intelligent, hahah the interviewer looks like he can't wait to get it over with cuz jim brown is so serious haha

Je vous remercie

I mention Jim Brown in The History Song.

Like I said...."I dont expect U to understand that".

@SAMRAM29 Hell Yeah

Brown is telling the truth,cause many athletes today are like that,but everyone isnt.I mean if i was to run a touchdown and did a little dance lol,i would be doin it cause im happy,not b/c im arrogant or trying to act a fool

Very true anyone has the right to feel however they wish but not all white people had relatives that owned slaves and every human being wants to be judged individually and not as a race or based on their ancestors actions. 120 years is a very short amount of time historically and I think we've made a great deal of progress since the days of slavery. Obama being elected as president when most registered voters are white is a pretty big sign of improvement and hopefully things continue improving.

@viokand The greatest Lacrosse player that ever lived! He was one special human. You should check out the movie "Jim Brown All American" It's a documentary by Spike Lee. The only SL movie I like. It's really well made his HS coach and teamates talk. If you're interested in Jim it's a must watch. I netflixed it and watched it 6 times.

BLACKBALLED from mainstream media!

Say that to his face Ms. Reverse Oreo.

How are you😍

Its probably why Barry Sanders never made any circuses when he scored TDs.

dont get me wrong, I admire this man for his amazing play on the field (the best RB i've ever seen footage of), and for the things he's says on here...but I wonder if this is he way of thinking...humble, humility, being a good role model, why did he pose for Playgirl? just wondering what made him want to do that.

@Footsniffer51 I am white and respect all black people and people of all other races, don't think that all of us think this way. Some of my best firends are black.

not a bad actor either, he was pretty awesome in Any Given Sunday

Ya it's a shame he didn't get in to politics.

i pay my taxes, i want my rights,i want to be treated as an eqaul-national service comes up where you have to fight for your country like every body else and all of a sudden its fuck that not me-but treat me eqaul and i want all these rights i deserve!

Killzone2...would not know greatness if it was sitting on his face.

Um sorry to burst your bubble but i actually do play.Been playin since high school so sorry lol

I came here for Jim Brown the gangster hehe.

she actually fell and he wasnt charged and the other incident was a aurgument with his present wife which happen to anybody. come up with something better than that why dont you buy his dvd then you will know the truth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@brian poole doesn't know enough for his opinion to have any merit,also the march of history has passed him by,sorry. For anyone who does not understand where Jim Brown is coming from, do us all a favor and learn about what his history is. It is a real Historic tale of America. Jim Brown was a great n.f.l. player,maybe the best, but he is so much more.

see people like you should not be commenting on things of which u know nothing about it was not a hotel room it was his home(apt) at the time he did not throw her off she jump off he never attack his wife he bust the windows in his car she got scared and call the police. know the facts before you judge.

so much of history is about what white people did and had to say about black people and now that this black man wants to comment about his own people you are offended...give me a break. If a white man said what Jim Brown has said I as a black man would have the utmost respect for his perspective on history.

Jim Brown has some great points about show boating and potential reinforcement of stereotypes with black atheletes. However I think he is completely off by compare playing in the NFL to being a slave. Its an honor to be a player in the NFL and only the most elite of atheletes can reach that point. The difference is majority of the spectators would like to be on that field too and see these guys as almost godlike. The degrading entertainment hes ref'erring to sounds more like "Bum Fights".

Jim Brown was one of the greatest football players ever & a very intelligent, thoughtful man. But I refuse to see a guy with a long history of beating women as a moral authority.

BENIGN NEGLECT.

Our children don't read. 27 years ago id give people books to read in college. They read nothing and never graduated.
