@superken54 Have you no decency‽ The man of two children's television icons, is deceased! And _you_ waltz in here with your raunchy cursing and abysmal grammer! Begone you heathen, and never darken my comments again!
Another decent incredibly beautiful human gone. Let's all live like Big Bird.. That's the best tribute to his work. Like Red Skelton ,he was a good soul.
David Farmer Oh...just IMAGINE the Muppet shows they will put on, now they are back together again.. up there in Heaven!! ❤️. Forever in my heart Big Bird and Oscar! ❤️
He was apart of my early 2000's childhood as Big Bird and Oscar on the older (and better) Sesame Street episodes I used to watch on VHS when I was a little girl....
It just breaks my Heart to see someone like Carroll Spinney passing Away at the age of 85 since yesterday and I always miss him for as long period of time and I grew up watching sesame street when I was little kid in the 1980's and he may be gone since yesterday when I found out about his passing
Rest in peace, brilliant puppeteer, Carol Spinney. Thanks for all the great education/entertainment that you provided me as young child in the early 1970s.
RIP Carroll Spinney, voice of Big Bird and Oscar. I'm sorry you didn't get to enjoy retirement for long, but at least you spent your years entertaining and educating little kids. Say hi to Mr. Hooper for us. I'm sure you, Mr. Hooper, Count Von Count (Jerry Nelson), David (Northern Calloway), Jim Henson, and all the other Muppets who have sadly departed are watching us from heaven just like we watched you for 50 years.
Sunny Day Sweepin' the clouds away On my way to where the air is sweet Can you tell me how to get, How to get to Sesame Street Come and play Everything's A-OK Friendly neighbors there That's where we meet Can you tell me how to get How to get to Sesame Street It's a magic carpet ride Every door will open wide To Happy people like you-- Happy people like What a beautiful Sunny Day Sweepin' the clouds away On my way to where the air is sweet Can you tell me how to get, How to get to Sesame street... How to get to Sesame Street How to get to...
You were a model puppeteer. You embodied a real professional. You were a very big part of my childhood and I am forever thankful for that. Rest well Carol, you've done a really great job raising our young minds.
Since I grew up watching Sesame Street between the early to late 80s, to me, big bird will always be the star. RIP Carol Spinney. I’m sure you, Jim Henson, Jerry Nelson, and Richard Hunt are probably talking about the mini skits and all in which you are performed on Sesame Street. Wherever y’all are, there will always be sunny days sweeping the clouds away.
Now that definitely passed on the Sesame Street legacy because I watch Sesame Street growing up as a kid. Carroll Spinney Rest In Peace at Sesame Street in Heaven.
English, 47 (born in 1972) and I like all my friends grew up with Sesame St teaching us about maths, literacy AND wider society life. I feel I owe big bird for the life lessons and Oscar for all the laughs !! Watch the film I am Big Bird and try not to get a wet eye during it, it cant be done. A wonderful man that loved both his craft and entertaining children.
0:54 that’s a ideal talking big bird similar too teddy ruxpin I have was was thinking of getting it out and seeing if it worked and play with it in honor of him
R.I.P. Carol Spinney a.k.a. Big Bird and Oscar thank you for the years of you being on my TV screen when I was a kid and also being in my children’s life as they watch you now
Big Bird was always my favorite. Oscar the grouch was funny, but I loved Big Bird. He taught so many of us about so many things. He truly was a kid at ♥
@@iamanonymoushoweveryousayi3163 well when the show first stared big bird was 6 than the other half he is 7 so big bird is going to be 8 the other half the seasons
Thank you to Caroll spinney for playing big bird and Oscar the grouch for nearly 50 years. Although they might have gotten new actors for the two, they'll never replace the old legend. Rest in peace Caroll spinney🥺🙏😭🥀🕊️💔
It always breaks my heart to hear about caroll spinney dying. I followed his Facebook page for the longest time. He was a wonderful man and I wish i could have met him.
He left a good legacy. In 1977 l played Oscar the garbage man in a high school play singing, I LOVE TRASH. It made me feel special.
Garbage man was always a relatable character, he gave millions of people joyful smiles with his role. Rest in peace Caroll Spinney
I feel like you didn't play Oscar :/
@@supermariocat Read the whole comment. He said "in a high school play singing".
Oh I thought he said he played Oscar in highschool on the show... sorry
@@mawinstallation6626 thank you for making that clear on my behalf😆
At least he lived to see how much of a positive impact on children of many generations. R.I.P. Caroll
As Snuffy would say, “Bye Bird!” R.I.P.
Heather Metz oh no I didn’t know he died he was my childhood ):
It hurts knowing that its true.....
Yeah😢
Perhaps he's now happily reunited with his good friends Jim Henson, Richard Hunt, and Jerry Nelson.
And Joe Raposo!

@@gillianday4804 sweet.
@@mgmassey174 and i'm glad that they don't have to stuff Big bird and put him in Jim Henson's puppet exhibition or something.
@@gillianday4804 yes the best memory of him is to remember the deeper truth of the work.
Museums exploit things that are Sacred..
I agree
@@mgmassey174 agreed
At least Big Bird can finally give Mr. Hooper that picture now
R.I.P. Jim Henson (Who has been dead for nearly 30 years now) and Caroll Spinney!
David Farmer
Oh...just IMAGINE the Muppet shows they will put on, now they are back together again.. up there in Heaven!! ❤️. Forever in my heart Big Bird and Oscar! ❤️
@@70sstreetracergal61 He won't be coming back, will he?
@cpk1994 Splendid.
@cpk1994 That's right, he died in 1990.
David Farmer And Mr Hooper
at least he'll get to be seeing Jim Henson up there
And mr. Hooper
And Jerry Nelson
As well as mr. Hooper
Does Mr. Rodgers count too? :3
He died in Connecticut, where I live. That only makes me feel closer to him.
:/
Rip Caroll Spinney. Say hi to Jim for us
And Mr hooper
and Mr Rogers
He will be remembered for what he left behind in the show
I'll always remember every pbs kids of the old show. They will never gets old.
Rip
He brought joy to millions of children around the world and his legacy will not leave as tragically quick as his death
He's with Mr. Rogers now.
and Mr. Jim Henson
And Mr. Hooper, too.
And Steve Hillenburg
And bob ross
And Greedy Smith.
Born 1933, dies in late-2019, 86 years later at age 85, meaning he must have been born REALLY late in the year to have not had a birthday yet!
Jack Son Capricorn
His birthday was in December 26, so you're right.
Did it take you all day to figure that out? 🙄🙄🙄
He was apart of my early 2000's childhood as Big Bird and Oscar on the older (and better) Sesame Street episodes I used to watch on VHS when I was a little girl....
Big Bird, and Mr. Hooper have reunited again. Farewell you two. Thank you both for all you have done for us all still here. Rest peacefully.
Underrated: If you know you know and this is such a nice thought.

If everyone who ever watched him as a child stopped to acknowledge and reflect upon his impact on one life, might it warm and brighten them. Remember.

Im just kinda happy that this didn't have to end up like the mr hooper episode not to be rude
To be fair, the Jim Henson company can still hire another puppeteer to replace him.
Spinner will always be remembered
Hopefully he will still be in the hearts of of the puppets
RIP💯
The mr hooper death scene is the most memorable scene
Thank you for the years of happiness we will never forget you
