Let’s not forget he was also a bully on set…I hate saintinizing people only after they died it sounds so fake. That being said he grew out of that to an extent. His ex wife might not think so though…

Why am I just finding out about this!!!! I’m crushed

@@Thatonegirl_scruffy The thing is, I cannot help but hold the estranged wife, Tammy, partly responsible for JDF's death. Whether people want to admit it or not, things said in anger can and do push people over the edge, and I can't help but suspect that his estranged wife said something to him during their arguments to that effect, which ended up being the straw that broke the camel's back. The thing is, rather than empathize with him and support him, she did the opposite by adding to his stress and anxiety. Given the multiple deaths he had been dealing with of other family members, the retiring of active participation in the Power Rangers franchise, and the divorce his estranged wife had put him through -- my guess is, with my experience, that he had felt abandoned. As if, nobody cared whether he lived or died. He also probably felt as if he no longer had a purpose. The point is, with everything that had happened, JDF was going through a midlife crisis. And being a man, he probably didn't want to bother anyone with what he was dealing with. In my own experience, I have always preferred to be alone, because I feel like I get preached at in my depression. My heart breaks for his kids, because now, they no longer have a father. That, in my mind, hurts almost as much as the fact JDF took his own life.

@@qs4177David Yost has said he was the Kindest person ever

Damn Why Jason Frank I miss you already I can’t believe this 😢😮🥺😭

This year sucks

@@KurtLassiter112 agreed

Yes it has it has only been one week since Kevin Conroy died and suddenly Jason David frank? I can't believe it yes I agree very devastated I grew up with both of those actors when I was just a little boy back in 1992 and 1993

Sad

Between Conroy and Frank, I'm officially dubbing November 2022 'death of the 90s' 😢

I remember playing Power Rangers in the 90s in the school playground, everyone wanted to be the white ranger. He had such an impact on a lot of our childhoods, he’ll be sorely missed by many for sure.

@@Walt_Dismal I did the same as a kid of the 90's. It was the best of times.😭

Far too young...I feel so sad for him and his family and all of us fans...damnit that sucks :(

He was a great power ranger

Ditto man,, ditto 👊

Same here, I met him in 2019 at a comic con. Genuinely a nice guy. Very intense but overall a good guy. He was a perfectionist. I just wish he had enjoyed the success he had created. He was a very smart guy!

Amen to that brother. The one thing I will say about Frank's I didn't know him long, only off and on for about 3 years. But he was a very good representation of the best of us at least what I knew of him. He also took very seriously and with great humility is responsibility as a role model for all people. I'm glad to hear that you win the battle of depression and suicide daily still. I myself also know how hard it is to fight that demon. I wish you strength and the best of all things. Also hopefully a long and happy life.

Edit: So sorry for the long comment. While I am an agnostic and question whether or not there's a God or afterlife, I also have suffered from severe depression my entire life and have far too often wished I had the strength to end my "life." I just do not belong here and I am so tired of seeing those who do nothing but hurt others get to have those they "love" in their life while I am alone no matter how much of myself I give. The only reason I haven't is because I am too afraid that death may be even worse. It is completely unknown, and that is terrifying. Not to mention one instinct we have not been able to overcome is our instinct to survive. Everything in our brain wants us to stay alive, even if our souls wish otherwise. So I know all too well just how deep into the darkness you have to be to actually end your life. And too many people, especially religious people, claim those who commit suicide are "selfish" and "weak" and will "burn in Hell" for it. And while that last part is the main fear keeping me here, it still pisses me off that people act like you're a bad, evil person who deserves to be punished for eternity just because you reached the point of no return and don't see any other way out. So seeing someone say he's in heaven is definitely nice. No one should be condemned for ending their earthly suffering in the only way they thought they could.

Thank you for sharing, that was so kind of him to pray for your dad. ❤

Death by 2 preventable causes.

Once a Ranger, Always a Ranger Rangers Forever, Defending Together

I'm 34 years old and I feel like recently we've been burying our childhood heroes quite frequently. Makes me sad. Maybe it's time. Maybe it's just life.

@@VansangluraVanchhawng I know, it’s feel very sad to say goodbye to our Childhood Memories. Like The First Time we saw Tommy’s First Appearance and and we first Heard of The Voice Kevin Conroy’s Voice as Batman. We will never to forget. Our Childhood Memories will always remember and always be in our Heads. Once a Ranger, Always a Ranger.

He was a hero and an awesome legend may he rest in peace. First techno then Kevin convoy and now Jason David frank.

Yeah Jason was a great guy. I met him at a convention once and it was just one of the greatest moments of my life with him being so nice. I even got his autograph for my Saba sword.😢

It's very sad. I hope he's at peace now

I wish no one would die...

@@mago_malvado96 I wish the same 😔

@@mago_malvado96 Same here man

@@mago_malvado96 I think that too but… The world will be overpopulated if that happens. Dinosaurs will still exist. Plants can’t be destroyed which means trees will always stand. Yeah, sorry but no. Life and Death come and go.

Same power rangers was my childhood and to learn Jason David Frank has died that sucks

@@eskanda3434 If everything you said about his wife is truth she's a a devil then she should pay for what she did she pushed him to the edge that he end it killing himself .

you made me cry man.

We must never let them try and make us forget who he was. You are his Legacy now. They took him to quick. He is training in Paradise now.

Preach.

I have many. Jaleel White, Amy Jo Johnson...

I’m not a 90s kid. Actually just a 2000s kid. But yea, RIP. Jason David Frank personally trained me in his karate dojo a few times even though throughout most of those 9 years I was there, it was mostly other black belts training us. Jason was a really nice guy. I was just thinking about visiting the karate just a few weeks ago too. I should’ve visited.

It was a sudden shock to me too,like how the greatest and legendary power ranger "Tommy oliver" died or killed himself so suddenly.

I used to follow him for years in Facebook and Instagram. Sad he will not be posting anymore. He loved meeting fans and loved seeing kids and adults who were dressed as Power Rangers or were just fans of MMPR. He took his PR role and embraced it for life.

I can’t either, I looked up to him

I know me neither

He is not gone he just went someplace else. You never really die you just move on I know cause I died for a bit was like I woke up from taking a nap.

I think I'm next to be with God...

@@mago_malvado96 no bro you have a role to play. pls don’t leave yet🙏

@@graysonm3188 I-I don't know... It feels like that, maybe life shouldn't be worth... But, I'll try not to give in. I will find a way.

Did you actually think about him all the time or are you just saying this just to say something?

Did it have something to do with his wife. Was she doing something? How can a man who's a champion martial artist in a dozen styles and a legendary tv personality just one day decide to go so early?

@@amartya9034 Because depression doesn't need a reason. Being successful on the outside doesn't equate to being happy on the inside. With someone diagnosed with depression myself, it is always a struggle fighting your inner demon. Unfortunately Jason lost to his.

@@MayaCloudBear I may have a different kind of depression then. One in which I don't wanna go but I feel really angry, dissatisfied, bored, uninterested and unhappy while doing anything and everything. Fighting helps me put all those feelings to something that makes me happy and so does lifting weights but I don't feel happy like ever but I don't feel sad either

@@MayaCloudBear So true.Depression is like a dark cloud that only you can feel and see.It sucks al the light and air out of your life and sometimes you just cant go on fighting anymore.Rest in peace jason david frank

​@@amartya9034She helped Hasbro get rid of the problem they were having with the dying power Rangers show business. She also got royalties and his house, leaving the other children nothing. She is Demetria in real life and good at acting like she isn't.

He was taken, not what they want us to believe.

@Ms Moon Boo what does your second sentence mean?

#ForeverGreen

Sadly we will never get the truth about all of that. He was supposed to come to my city at the end of this month the convention is having a tribute to him with some of the Power Rangers that replaced the originals attending. I just can't go. Too heartbreaking and close to him being gone only 2 months in 4 more days

RIP 🙏I watch him growing up so young sad

Yes it does.😢

Same here.. while everyone was getting Transformers, I remember getting the PR toys that were very similar. He was my favorite, so I always played with the green car. 😅 I don't remember what the toy was called, but it was pretty dope.

Celebrity deaths rarely shock me- but this one truly has. Just like everyone else I grew up watching mmpr and other series of the franchise. As a fan, I cannot believe hes gone. He was only in his late 40's. Iv just turned 40 myself this year. The man was a living legend onscreen as well as off screen. He will be missed by SO MANY. God bless his soul💙 Once a ranger, always a ranger.

RIP to the Best Power Ranger ever 😢 🙏

i still hoped for him to play the role of lord drakkon.It really is unbelivabl for him to die

Power Rangers and TMNT all day.

oooh I like that.

Love that.

That sounds better for a power ranger !

Tmz is not a reliable source, thats a rumor.

@@akmalshabazz9497 Its more than TMZ. His trainer/friend even stated that JDF left him a VM and he didnt get to him in time. JDF was going through a lot.

I didn't realize it was suicide. :( That's even worse... Dang it, one of my biggest childhood inspirations ended like that... I know he couldn't go out fighting monsters, but, there had to be options. :(

even I can't believe I still doubt if he suicide or murder it's feels like become a pattern in FIM industries

@@Artimidorus what does couldn't go out fighting monsters means?
