@angieburnett4341 💯 ppl battle depression and alot of them don't get any better they battle with some illness sadly its called depression rip to this young man
I had a wedding video business in San Diego in the 90s. I was lucky enough to get into the Samoan community and do many weddings for the Samoans. JR actually approached me at a reception after one of the weddings I was doing. We briefly spoke about football. He then turned to leave where I was standing and said that he wanted a picture with me. I had my big camera and the photographer took our picture together. I asked JR if it was ok for me to put the picture in my office? He said yes but he wanted me to take a video of him doing a traditional Samoan dance. I agreed and one afternoon we were both free and met in a park in Carlsbad and him and 3 others did a traditional dance for his grandmother’s birthday. Down to earth guy and was definitely loved by San Diego.
Dang, taking photos or film can show the way a person is in real life. A lot of suicides or passed away people seem to appear partially obscured, in the back, or just not the main focus. Thanks for sharing your story that he was in your footage, and may you feel better, there is nothing wrong with you, or your ability to put the weaknesses of other in center stage. You are a professional, and so was he.
As a native Californian than loves and adores our samoa 🇼🇸 community, I felt this lost so deep as he was my family. I started watching the NFL as a minor just to see him play. This one stung. Due to his transition, the NFL started to go into head injuries and made better helmets since then. You'll forever be missed Junior 🙏🏾❤❤❤❤❤.
I just googled Junior's name and his poor parents didn't bury not one, not two, but three children. Their other son Savaii died in 2022. I just can't imagine burying three children.
I remember that day , it was all over the news, such a sad day. They actually did an autopsy and analyzed his brain and discovered that his brain was so damaged from those hard blows to the head .He probably didn't know that his depression and mood swings was the result of those concussions. Imagine how bad your depression was to decide suicide was the answer to stop hurting.
@@gregallen1 read again, nowhere was it mentioned he shot himself in the head. His brain was damaged from the impacts of the sports itself, He was never himself and yes he knew it was probably a result from all those yrs playing football and that's why he made it clear that to donate his brains for research.
Having a 20 year nfl career as a defensive player is amazing. Mainly because as you get older, you're more likely to get injured , especially as a defender. Kickers and qbs can last long because they're usually not getting clobbered every play. When Jr passed away, we all felt like we lost a brother. Even though we didn't know him, he always had that smile on his face that made us feel like we did know him personally. Rip to the legend Jr Seau
I remember this awesome athlete. I've heard that concussions can cause a condition that affects mood swings, depression. So sorry for his loss. RIP Junior Seau
I met Junior in 2003 and he was so nice. I said, hey Junior, I’m a huge Raiders fan but I’m also a big fan of yours and he said, we can’t all be perfect and we started laughing so hard. He carried on a conversation with me like we had been friends for years. My profile photo is when I met him. RIP 55.
Lamont At Large, I have been watching your videos for quite a while, you always show respect. Jr (Junior) was one of my favorites!! I didn't realize so much time had passed. Thank you for your awesome video and also you being so awesome.
This is why I love your video. You not only do video of tragic things, but you do things that are near and dear or important to you from your heart like this video of Jr. Seau. You very often remind of people and things from the past we have forgotten about and that's always a good thing. I'm not a football person at all, but I remember him. Great video! Keep them coming.
I've known the Seau ohana for years. When Junior was little, he was such a rascal. Mrs. Seau goes to see him every Sunday. I can remember one Sunday that she was putting beautiful white roses there, we started talking and she was telling me how people were taking things that herself and her family would put on his grave. It just broke my heart seeing how sad it made here. So I told her to report it to security and she did. Nothings been taken since.
I lived next to the Bruce Lee and son graves and its turned into a field trip for next generations to mourn the product of tylenol and gun violence. May His respectful resting place also remind others of how post mortem theft of grave belongings is wrong, shame on that grave attendant and that Lady, his mother the saint, deserves compensation. Its Cruel what happened to her son's grave site.
●It's really sad that he thought there was no better way to solve things but by ending his life. ●Many people don't realize how serious mental health or PTSD is. What a tragic loss, a talented and gifted man gone too soon.🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you Lamont for remembering this legend. Best video yet, Seau was amazing athlete, saw him once at his restaurant Seau’s in San Diego closed down soon after his death. Long live #55 🌹🌹🌹🙏
One of my favorite players as a kid growing up. I’ve been a Bills fan since 89, and Jim Kelly will always be my hero, but Junior Seau was just that dude and I remember back in 94 I bought his jersey as a Christmas gift for myself and my best friend at the time because we absolutely loved this guy. RIP legend. You may be gone but you will never ever be forgotten.
Among the many celebrities, we lost in 2012 (ex. Neil Armstrong, Don Cornelius, Andy Griffth, Whitney Houston, Rodney King, and Steve Sabol). I remember seeing “Junior Seau: 1969-2012” on the SportsCenter feed, and asked myself “What happened?” I was stunned when the anchor said that Seau committed suicide. RIP Junior Seau.
Thank you Double header 97 for mentioning the 1997 tragedies that include 3 years of government air drops from airplanes to control for environmental engineering that I studies as an environmental scientist. You can name the names of people, I can names the elements, strontium, aluminum, and countless others that include silver and boron. Nice.
The parents lost not just three, but four children. One died twelve days after birth and was twins to his older brother who passed in a car accident in 2022, a year before the father died. A family of tragedies smh.
Lamont. I love watching your videos dude. Particularly one when you visited here in St Louis Missouri recently when you went to the cemetery right behind my old middle school. Holman Middle School. You nail every story on the dot. You are amazing Lamont. Regardless if it's here or On The Run or Fascinating Graveyard. You do great on your videos. You keep up the great work my brother. Plus you even visited one of the grocery stores here in St Louis I actually work at. Dierbergs. I work at the one in St Peters. Come and visit some time and we'll hook you up with whatever you need.
I lived in Oceanside for couple of years and I always do a slow drive by at that spot you’re walking on and I always say a prayer to Seau every time I drive by his spot 🙏🏽 ps his last year w Patriots they had a 16-0 perfect record and lost to the NYGiants in the Super Bowl via David Tyree miracle helmet catch
Jr was one of my favorite all time NFL players.His brain was donated to science to study the long term effects of concussions. Thanks to him many players today can avoid the same problems that Jr suffered from with all the concussions he received in playing football.
I used to live in O'side. We walked by his home many times and it was always sad. Such a serene view marked by tragedy. 20 years in the NFL is crazy. RIP Jr.
Awesome tribute @ the end of ur upload !!! A touching tribute to Junior Seau not only as a great football player but as a MAN, fellow human-being! Kudos for very interesting n informative trip to where it ended plus his grave site. RIP Junior Seau. Peace
As a Chiefs fan he wrecked alot of Sundays for me 😂 Junior is one of the best Linebackers to ever play the game it’s sad that neither him or Derrick Thomas ever got Super Bowl rings ❤
Junior was a Samoan. A former roommate, a Hawaiian, would say "He just didn't step on it. He did the Samoan war dance on it and those brothers CAN STOMP!!"
My brother and Jr went to Oceanside highschool together and played football together there my family knew him very well when you have the time you should go to Oceanside highschool and see his records I didn't know him because I grew up on the east coast but I was told that he was a great guy and friend RIP JR😢😢😢😢😢😢
I lived with my brother at Camp Pendleton in Oceanside in 93-94. I was from Texas and a Cowboy fan. They hated me over there as they were true Chargers fans. Rip Junior
CTE is absolutely horrific, it seems he hated the person he had become but it really wasn't his fault. I'm glad he got to play the sport he loved (I love football) for so long but it came with a huge price. I wish it weren't such a violent sport but unfortunately it's the way the game is. You're right, he had another brother that died in a car accident a couple of years ago as well. Love, prayers & God bless that poor mama, she's endured a ton. Thank you Lamont, I was a fan of his for the same reasons as you but heartbroken for the ending. Love, hugs & God Bless you 💕💕
Off topic, but that's an absolutely beautiful area where his house was. I love the balcony facing the ocean. That would be a dream for me to live somewhere like that.
growing up in San Diego County, he came to our school and it was a big deal. I was shocked when I heard of his passing. His name reminds me of childhood memories, the good ol days, wish he was still around
Anyone a fan of football knew this man. Absolute menace. Found out about his death in college sitting in a car. Absolutely devastating loss for the world
I remember him & Leslie O'Neal visiting my 3rd grade class at Hamilton Elementary in San Diego.Cant remember what they said to our class, but I remember the cookies.They brought us a bunch of cookies.He seemed like a really nice guy.
Junior Seau #55 of the San Diego Chargers Career Accomplishments 12× Pro Bowl (1991-2002) 8× First-team All-Pro (1991-1996, 1998, 2000) 2× Second-team All-Pro (1997, 1999) NFL Defensive Player of the Year (1992) NFL Man of the Year (1994) NFL 100th Anniversary All-Time Team NFL 1990s All-Decade Team Pro Football Hall of Fame Selection
He was a top college prospect when I was a senior in HS. I can still picture his smiling face on the cover of a magazine in my coach’s office. Such a sad ending
I met Junior Seau in 1996 on Mission Beach in San Diego when I was 12. As soon as I saw him I knew it was him, I dropped my boogie board and ran up to him and said "Hey man are you Junior Seau??!!!", his reply was "Yea Man". He gave me dap and we went about our way. I couldn't get an autograph because it was at the beach. Him and Ron Simmons are the only two famous people I've met.
ESPN did really good on covering Seau on there 30 for 30 doc series that I would highly recommend watching just really going over his life and his career as well as certain events that lead up to his death... Rest In Paradise Seau
I love watching the ocean waves. Sounds corny to some but in Illinois there are mostly corn and soybean fields. I don't know anything about football, but I am so sorry that this man felt the need to leave this world. May he and his family RIP.
junior seau was a force, a tackling machine who was very intense. the steelers had a player just like him, troy polamalu, who i would call junior seau jr. junior played 20 seasons and troy, 12. for every action there is an opposite and equal reaction; give a big hit and receive one in the doing. junior had 8 years more of those big hits than troy. troy wisely retired after 12. troy is doing very well. rip junior seau
I'm guessing as a linebacker, he was actually probably more like 240, 250lbs. He was too quick to be 270 plus. Gettin your head smacked in every week for 20 years takes a toll. He even shot himself in the chest so they could study his brain. Junior, you're a legend and will always be missed. 🙏
Maybe you could come to Florida again in the near future. My town I live in has a Trial going on about a Babysitter leaving a little 10 month old in her car in the summer of 2023. It's on UA-cam now. 133 Degree in the car.
Met Junior at his restaurant. He was such a nice and approachable man. He is a San Diego legend and is missed. RIP Jr. Seau
"You don't stop playing football because you want to. You stop playing because you have to."
- Junior Seau
Always liked him remember when he played for the pats was so happy we had great player great guy rip jr seau
Yeah that(CTE) Ain't no Joke Plenty of Ex Athletes have Committed Suicide Because of It To(Rest Easy__Juinor Seau)
Seau was my brother's favorite NFL player. He was sad when this happened. Glad that you showcased his grave. I'll be showing my brother your video.
He was a beast one of my favorite LB,s for sure
CTE is no joke. Very tragic! He was a true superstar!
@@brandisuperstar. CTE is very real. This is why many commit suicide, because there is little that can be done.😢
Thank you for making this video about true legend appreciate your work.🤙
you never know what burdens people are carrying….be kind ❤
💯
He sadly had CTE. Football is a very dangerous sport. RIP to this extreme talent!
A very kind thing for you to say. I wish I meet people like you.
@angieburnett4341 💯 ppl battle depression and alot of them don't get any better they battle with some illness sadly its called depression rip to this young man

Wrong, he did know or atleast suspected that’s why he shot himself in the heart and not his head. So that they could examine him

Thanks Lamont for all your great stories. Your the best. Stay safe in this crazy world 🌎.
Yes, and it was a good video.
This thing is just painful as hell

CTE
Yeah, CTE is a hidden monster
@@allewis4008 It sure is!
Steroids as well.
CTE is no joke. Imagine the damage at the highest level for 20 years can do. Bless his soul 🙏

Also steroids
That was a beautiful heartfelt video Lamont . Rest in heavenly peace Junior Seau 🎉❤Peace out Lamont ❤❤
Jr suffered from CTE that was diagnosed a few years after his death even though his family requested the results not be given out to the public.
All of us Pats fans loved this guy.
Thank you Lamont for telling his story. This world is not as bright without him in it. 💔💔🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
This death broke my heart. I was a big fan.
Rest in peace Seau. Thanks Lamonte for his story.
Thank you for telling his story. I loved watching him play and was so sad when he took his own life.

Athletes who regularly take blows to the head change subtlety over time. That trauma leaves a mark on their psyche. Rip sir

You know you would have to wonder if he has CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy) after 20 years in the NFL. RIP Junior. Great video, Lamont 🙏🏼❤️
That's why he did it in the chest so his head could be examined. I remember them talking about it when I was in school
I'm guessing as a linebacker, he was actually probably more like 240, 250lbs. He was too quick to be 270 plus. Gettin your head smacked in every week for 20 years takes a toll. He even shot himself in the chest so they could study his brain. Junior, you're a legend and will always be missed. 🙏
Maybe you could come to Florida again in the near future. My town I live in has a Trial going on about a Babysitter leaving a little 10 month old in her car in the summer of 2023. It's on UA-cam now. 133 Degree in the car.
