I hate to burst your bubble. But that statue of JFK is NEAR the spot where he gave his outdoor speech. Not the exact spot. In 1963 the front of the hotel was a parking lot. JFK gave his speech in front of the hotel. Not where his statue is today. JFK statue is facing west off to the side. But his statue should be in front of the hotel facing south. And Fort Worth is the 13th largest city in the U.S. and Dallas is the 9th largest city in the U.S. Almost equal in size. Fort Worth is quickly gaining in size as Dallas in population.
Thanks for the info!
Fort Worth is NOT a small city... it just *looks* like it is.
Correct . It’s close to a million people now .
I told him the same thing when I commented. Fort Worth is major city. Bigger than Atlanta, Seattle, Denver, it’s actually geographically bigger than Dallas as well. This dude does did not do his research
He didn't land at Love Field on the 21st, he landed at Carswell Air Force base in Fort Worth.
He landed in Love field on 22nd
Start at 55 second mark, you say he landed on the 21st at Love Field and spent the night in Fort Worth. That is incorrect.
I'm from Fort Worth,Tx and I tell people all the I'm from the place were JFK spent his last night alive.I have seen the statue a thousand times.
Who's watching this video on the 58th anniversary of the JFK assassination?
I Appreciate you watching sir 😎👍👍
The platform JFK and LBJ are standing on are clearly directly in front of the hotel door. So the aspect of the statue is not accurate. Great statue though.
I live in Fort Worth. You are correct ! In 1963 the front of the hotel was a parking lot. And JFK gave his speech to the gathered crowd in front of the hotel. His statue is near but not at the exact spot where the President gave his speech. Good call.
I loved him now more than ever!
Where the statue is is not the exact location he gave the speech....it's to the left of where he came out the door, about 20 yards out
Very interesting! Thanks for sharing and kind regards from 🇩🇪. 🇩🇪 loved ❤️ JFK. R.I.P. Mr. President 🥀
Thank you and thanks so much for watching!! I have a bunch of other JFK videos. Actually a whole playlist dedicated to JFK on my channel if you’re interested. Take care 😎
Well done!!!!!!🤗🇬🇧
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
JOHN F.KENNEDY & ELVIS. 🌟🌟
NICK , Thank You. 👍
😎👍👍
New Subscriber, Thanks for the video…. Big JFK fan 👍
Thank you very much! I’m a big JFK fan as well and have another 3-4 videos on my channel of the locations in Dallas. Thanks again 😎🤘
Congratulations! Great video and we can feel your passion for JFK. I have the same ever since I was a teenager thirty years ago! I went to Dallas and visited the museum where I spent four hours reading and watching every detail of that tragic day. Now I wonder if Air Force One could have been a choice to spend the night? Maybe history could have been different, only God knows... Thank you so much!
Thanks Joe so glad you enjoyed this!! I have more videos coming soon of the 6th floor museum and JFK! Thanks again 😎👍👍
JFK spend the night in Air Force One ? That would not of made any difference ? JFK spent the night in Fort Worth made two speeches and left that morning for Dallas. JFK slept, ate, showered speech in Fort Worth with no problems.
Nice job. So you were able to just walk into the elevator to the 8th floor without staying there?
Yup we just went right up
@@TravelswithNick Great thanks!
You do a wonderful job on these videos. I really enjoyed the video and getting a glimpse of where our President spent his last night,
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed 😎✌️
What a likable president. So good with words and personality which vastly differs from the caos we had for four years.
Thanks for checking out my channel! I had a lot more JFK videos as well
Absolutely amazing travel vlog buddy and very informative content about the tragic history of JFK
Thank you glad you enjoyed 😎🤘
Thank you for such a great video! I've been wanting to see this for awhile now.
Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed it 😎
Cool video...hopefully you got to meet Popa Mike? If not and you're able to do so stop back by and find him!
The way you captured this video shows how much you loved JFK. Thank you so much.
Thank you very much for the kind words!! Glad you enjoyed 😎👍👍
If only it had rained for a few more hours. The bubble would have been on the Lincoln & history would have changed.
GREAT VIDEO NICK THANKS FOR SHARING EXCELLENT WELL DONE
Glad you enjoyed it!! Thanks 😎👍👍
On Nov. 22, 1963 the dividers were taking down.
Thanks for the info! Good to
Know
Nick, what an eerie thought... while he was merrily talking to the crowds, his assassination was being fine-tuned. This whole thing is part of our history. Thank you for taking us to such interesting, diverse locations, and providing audio and visuals, when possible.... Elvis's path was tragic, too, in many ways. I read once that he always felt "a sense of unwarranted guilt" 🙏 that he lived and his twin brother died. another great video 👏☀️🌟
Thanks Rhonda! Glad you liked it. As far as Elvis goes, YES that's true Elvis until the day he died always felt guilty that he lived but Jesse Garon died. His mother would tell him - "they say when one twin does, then the other that lives takes all the strength and abilities of the two." Thanks again :)
@@TravelswithNick WOW, I didn't know his mother said that. That's heavy. thanks, Nick
@@TravelswithNick Hey Nick. I was born 6 years after the assassination and retired as a history teacher and school administrator. Like you I have always been fascinated with these events and have been to Dealey Plaza. This coming November being the 60th Anniversary, my wife and I are staying at the Hilton Ft. Worth on the 21st and in Dallas on the 22nd. I am sure there will be events in Dealey Plaza on that day. Really looking forward to being there to honor the President
I remember the day he was shot. We were watching the motorcade in class at school. We all got sent home early. It is nice to know they honored him is such a way. Great video. Keep Safe ❤Keep Well ❤
Can’t imagine seeing that. Kind of like 9/11 everyone knows where they were when it happened. Glad you enjoyed this though 😎🤘
The motorcade was not shown on television. The only live coverage was on the radio.
Your in my hometown
Awesome!👏😎
2,000 ppl were at that last speech in the ballroom
That’s crazy right? Thanks for checking out my channel 😎
Also he did not land at Love Field on that Thurs night the 21st..landed at Air Force base in Ft Worth
President Kennedy would have been reelected in 1964 and put an end to Vietnam war - This is so SAD
Agreed! Thanks for watching!!
They flew into Carswell Airforce Base not Love from Houston .
Nick: your narration at 1:09 is incorrect: President Kennedy's Air Force One landed at Ft. Worth's Carswell AFB - not Love Field in Dallas - late in the evening of Thursday, November 21, 1963. Those who fancy themselves as "Travel Guides" or amateur historians should do their public a service by performing basic research prior to publishing their work. Although you may find my comment distasteful, please recognize that you have a responsibility to the the majority of your viewers, most of whom learn history only from UA-cam and other social media.
What airport did he fly out of?
@@TravelswithNick With all due respect, you seem perfectly capable of conducting your own research. Regardless, we DO respect that you express genuine interest in the 35th president of the United States.
He flew out of Houston on the 21 st landed at Carswell AFB around 10:00 pm . Went straight to the Texan hotel . Your heart is in the right place . The errors you made aren’t a big deal .
That 8th floor gave me the creeps! Like someone was watching 👀I’ll have to check out Parkland.
Lol it was a little eerie but really cool to see! Parkland is awesome if you have amazon prime I highly recommend it!! Thanks again glad you enjoyed it :)
Thankyou respect great video 👌❤🙏
Glad you enjoyed it :)
JFK always spoke well at speeches great mentioning Elvis Presley me and my mom will always be massive fans of the king 👑 great video really enjoyed it 👍
Glad you liked it! I’m a huge Elvis fan as well 😎👍👍
@@TravelswithNick The king will live forever
Really enjoying all your videos👍🏻
Thanks Linda 😎🤘
I was writing to say hello and I hope you folks are doing great. Have a great day.
WOW! Thank you for doing this. You showed us an amazing piece of history. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed thanks so much!
On a few occasions, you reference "all this happened the day before." In fact, the speeches occurred on the same day he was assassinated, within four hours of his death.
Idk if I said “all” of them lol. I know the breakfast speech happened the day of. Not sure what else I said after. Either way thanks for watching! They’ll be more/better JFK videos coming out from me in the future!
Do your research more Thoroughly before you make a video. JFK landed at the Air Force Base in Fort Worth not love Field. In Fort Worth is not a small town. It’s a 12 largest city in America.
Thanks. This was filmed a few years ago and I’ve learned a lot more since then. I plan to remake this video in the future. Thanks for watching!
America’s terrible gun problem.
Agreed! Thanks for watching ✌️
Imagine waiting your whole life to meet the president and you are but a stone throw away from him and than he dies couple hours later. Unreal
I read that the hotel will not change the ballroom in which jfk spoke due to trying to preserve the history of the hotel
That’s crazy to really think about. I appreciate you watching and you’re input ✌️
Those barbed wire horses are incredible 😲
I almost walked right past them until my wife told me they were made out of barbed wire. Then was like holy cow!! lol
👍👍
Finally… Thanks You .. 🎥
Thanks for watching! 😎✌️
@@TravelswithNick Try Elvis vs Nixon movie. “Sunny” Special 📽️
President Kennedy was a gifted speaker and got along well with the press. Charming, kind and much much better than what's in the Oval office now.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
How our country could go from the most charming, charismatic, and classy president we’ve ever had (Kennedy) to the most ill-mannered, know-nothing, obnoxious blowhard in Donald Trump is mind-boggling. I will say, however, that Lyndon Johnson was about as ill-mannered as Trump. Our two most corrupt presidents have been 1) Lyndon Johnson and 2) Donald Trump.
He did not drive to Dallas..as everyone knows
Yes I was incorrect at the time of making this. I plan to make a new version of this in 2024. Thanks for your comments 😎
His last night on earth before he was murdered by the CIA
Thanks for watching!
You have zero proof of that . Zulch
Great sense of humor
Thanks again!
So do you have to ask them to see up there or can you just walk around there
They didnt go to Love field on the 21st. They arrived the 22nd.
As a history buff you might want to familiarize yourself with the truth about who LHO actually was and stop spreading the false story of his being the actual assassin. A nice tour of his last stay before Dallas.
You’re sorely misguided if you think there was a conspiracy. Do better research
Where did he sleep and with whom?. Ask not what your country can do for you but ask what you can do to give your wife the respect she deserves.

No one cares clown.
I was born and raised in Fort Worth, Tex it is so sad that his last night on earth was in Fort Worth he was a wonderful man but at the same time my hometown is apart of history! Rip President Kennedy
Thanks for watching!
