Good observation.

Not all cancer comes from smoking, obviously

He got cancer due to nuclear fallout near where he filmed “The Conquerer”

@@zackcross7190 that's debatable. He was exposed to radiation but that doesnt guarantee cancer and can cause a wide variety of cancers based on the type of exposure. John Wayne got ling cancer which is often caused by smoking or exposure to other airborne carcinogens and John Wayne was a lifelong chain smoker, starting in his teens. It can be difficult or even impossible to peg a certain cancer to a certain cause, it's all about statistics more of then not but a lifetime of smoking is a more likely cause then a 1 time exposure to radiation. Hell I was once irradiated so bad I was told not to take a plane since I'd set off the TSA Geiger counters, I was told to flush twice when I used the bathroom to wash away residual radiation, and I was told not to let anyone spend the night in my bed due to being radioactive and I'm fine so radiation isnt a guarantee for cancer but most of the lifelong chain smokers I know end up with some kind of cancer at some point.

@@arthas640 I guess you could call it the perfect storm of circumstances. Acute radiation poisoning combined with decades of smoking. I guess it doesn’t matter now though.

antoinec822 Me too... i was just watching GOOD TIMES!

Same! I just watched that episode.

antoinec822 haha me too 😂😂😂

Me too! I just saw the Good Times episode

We're all some weirdos, cause me too!😂

money was no object, he could have afforded to smoke 20 lbs of mary jane a week.

Money had nothing to do with it. Cigarettes cost nickels and dimes back then. Everybody smoked and was encouraged to. Wayne actually first got diagnosed with lung cancer in '69. He got a lung removed and miraculously survived. He did this commercial soon after. Not sure if he went back to smoking or not.

@@hilarityensues Yeah right after getting out of the hospital he switched to chewing tobacco and cigars.

He ended up smoking so much do to some of his pictures like the alamo,being so stressful to film cause they would either be low budget,no money,actors not doing their job,or worrying about whether Its gonna make it in the box office

@@connergohlke3098 He might of had stress but he was smoking and drinking like that awhile. He, Lucy, and someone I'll think of later lol were all in that 6 pack a day club.

i just saw that here.. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iaxkdZB7rrHQYGQ.html

No he smoked 4 packs a day.. Nobody can smoke 20 packs a day

20 packs a day! He would not be able to talk with a mouthful of cigarettes all day long!

i thought it was 40 packs/day?

I thought it was lung cancer?

Ride The Lightning yup its all about money....on the ACS website they tell you to eat food that have been researched to causing cancer....we living in a chemical warfare and pharmaceuticals & chemicals are running and ruining the world

😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

I was recently diagnosed with cancer and the American Cancer Society paid for my gas and medications.. thank you American cancer society!

With what we know about smoking today. If you pick up the habit today, you deserve to die from it.

Correct, fuck all to do with smoking.

I heard the same thing about how he got cancer. If I remember right, most of the cast from that movie ended up dying of cancer. I am not condoning smoking but, it wasn't cigarretes that killed him. People just assume that's how he got cancer. I believe it was lung cancer which makes it even more ironic.

BRENNON, that is actually correct

That had to have been the dumbest move ever in film making history.

Yes, in his Playboy interview from around the time of this ad, his sweetness toward American Indians and Black people is on full display.

@@wpdoyle Well, nobody’s perfect.

@@Capcoor lol

McClintock

Dwight Bennett Really? I've seen McClintock, and I know that there's a big muddy fight sequence in it, but it doesn't look like this one.

Darth Goku North to Alaska

Thanks for the info.

I think it's McLinglytoc or something like that, i know it has a "Mc" in it...so i guess he would have been Irish or Scottish?

Yes but the the cancer he had was in his lungs, not sure if radiation exposure would cause you to develop cancer in your lungs?

@@matthewnikitas8905Translate this. nie chodzi o promieniowanie a o mikrocząsteczeczki napromieniowane których nawet nie widzisz a trafiają one do płuc. Taka napromieniowaną cząsteczka która trafi ci do płuc wywoła raka płuc. Jeżeli wbije ci się w skórę to będziesz miał raka skóry( u nas mówi się na to czerniak). Sprawdź dane. W krajach gdzie jest największy odsetek dorosłych ludzi palących jest najmniejsze zachorowanie na raka płuc. U was w USA macie ogromne nieszczęście nawet w tych czasach bo to u was przeprowadzono z 600 prób jądrowych. Te napromieniowane cząsteczki rozleciały się po całym świecie to fakt ale u was na waszym terenie jest tego najwiecej znajdują się np w piasku w którym bawią się wasze dzieciaki.

​@matthewnikitas8905 He survived lung cancer (early 1960s) which many regard as being due to his smoking habbit. He died some time later due to stomach cancer (late 70s) which many regarded as being related to the radiation of that site (possibly from the water.) But, yes, radiation exposure also increases the risk of lung cancer (as does smoking.) So it can be a dangerous combination.

I bet after the surgery he asked the doctors if he could smoke and they probably said ''Yes, but I recommend you downgrade to menthols'' xD

I know all it teaches is that cool hard asses smoke. LOL.

he cut the cigs off just in time. he died of other organ failure I think.

He died of stomach cancer, not organ failure.

Some people say it was up to 7 packs a day

Wrong. He was 34 in 1941.

DarthVaPer612 - why?
