Troll- George and Olivia truly loved each other- George recorded two love song for Olivia on his final album - 'Never Get Over you' and 'Rocking Chair in Hawaii' and he wanted to spend a lot of time alone with her in 2000-2001 . Look at photos from the lstt two yeas of his life where he has his arms around Olivia and looks so happy with her. Exactly what part of getting up and fighting a maniac even though you have been very seriously stabbed when he stats attacking the woman you love and what part of fighting a man half your age and twice your weight when he is attacking the man you love do you not get? And who did George want by his side through his final illness?- Go read what Klaus Voormann and Ken Scott have written about how united George and Olivia were
What??? She stood there and did nothing while a crazy man attacked her husband??? She's acting like she's the victim and she didn't even take any damage no no no sorry she should be ashamed.
@@dannielson2946 You only heard what you wanted to hear in this interview. Truly sad. She's an amazing woman who loved George so much. If you see other interviews you would see the love she felt so deep for him. She stood by him through a lot and always believed in him. She never remarried either. They were a love that many of us will never feel or experience.
schallrd1 in my humble opinion the attack was a result of his acknowledging the original Paul McCartney at the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame Indiction ceremony. I also wouldn’t be shocked if he was poisoned w/cancer causing agent during that attack.
It’s because this is all fake news & she’s apart of a satanic cult as sad as it sounds people do fake interviews such as this to cover it all up & you can easily tell just by how she tells the story an what emotions she uses bottom line she’s full of shit
It can only be explained by the Buddhist teachings on karma. This is a great question, Paul, one that led me on my spiritual search from my adolescence onward.
I came to UA-cam today to allow myself some time remembering John on the anniversary of that terrible day, and here I am choking on tears for George. Thank you, Olivia, for fighting so hard to save him through that nightmare. God, how I miss those guys...
Exactly. Especially if you are famous, you could actually be more vulnerable, like how John Lennon got shot and killed, or even former politicians, like JFK.
i never really cry when famous people pass away but george and john were so amazing and that makes me fell sad that i never got a chance to meet them. R.IP goerge harrison and john Lennon.
7:21 - 8:18 As a father I can relate to this. A true father sheds all ego, sense of self, and will make any sacrifice for his kids. Kudos George. We lost a good one when we lost you.
I remember this too- and I commend Olivia for how she handled it too. Jools Holland who visited George and Olivia in hospital after the attack records that a police woman who was looking after George told him Olivia was one of the bravest people she had ever met
ugh, why did George have to die? He's my favorite beatle but not many other's. it's all about Lennon to most people. But I loved George's styles. He's still missed
Well lennon was politically influential. Other Beatles were just happy lads playing the guitar, smoking pot. Although, Harrison was the 2nd most spiritual Beatles after Lennon
George is also my favorite Beatle as well. Charming guy, very talented musician. I would have loved to meet him. Ps, John Lennon was the least spiritual Beatle haha. He said so himself.

You know what- Olivia saved a Beatle's life, and probably more than once- but that is probably why she gets these stupid comments. Some people cannot deal with the fact a petite middle aged woman managed to deal with a man half her age and twice her weight. It says more about the fairly pathetic individuals who feel the need to make stupid comments about her mouth, laugh, comments on NHS or whatever than Olivia
+soulfoodie1 I agree with you with all my heart! Too many men, even younger ones, get easily threatened by women smaller or younger than themselves, which is pathetic if you ask me!
Even good people can turn into killers. Even George Harrisson would have killed if his family were in mortal danger. The most peaceful man on earth. What a hero.
From what I've heard and read George wasn't the type to involve himself in conflict situations so I can imagine this being very distressing for him. He was such a peaceful man and it's worrying that a man could attack him in such a manner. I'm glad that he got to spend more time with Olivia and Dhani; he looked like a brilliant father.
Troll - Olivia is a deeply spiritual person as any interview with her will show. And her spirituality shines through in 'Living in the material World'- btw troll- nice work trolling Olivia on the 17th anniversary of the say she and George fought off Michael Abram together.
Chris R well George saw Olivia risk her own life fighting Michael Abram - he knew he could rely on her. And George chose to spent a lot of time alone with Olivia in Fiji and Maui after the attack ....
I remember the attack but never heard all the details before today . George was an amazing person beyond his Beatle fame and Olivia clearly a very special and strong person ..sure miss George and John .
GamePlayWithNolan he blended his bravery with his humour, just like the last time ringo saw him in switzerland, ringo’s daughter had a brain tumor and had to go to boston, george was extremely ill at the time and offered to go with ringo
Olivia was such a brave lady also who would not want to save your husband's life, George done his best we all know this was George's downfall, i'm still sure if this did not happen that George would of still been here or maybe a few many more years, Life is short, enjoy each day that comes along
He had security guards at the gates to his house, but this story is fake, and here's the reason why. The Harrison's "woke up" from something being thrown through one of the windows? I guess the security guards never even heard the sound?
RavenHearst1900 ...have you seen how big George’s house is?? The grounds???? If the guards were at the gates, it’s pretty plausible they may not have heard it. Of course, I forgot: you were there of course, not Olivia. My bad. Since you were for sure there and can for sure tell if that this woman who was there was lying then I’m sorry for being wrong.
@@RavenHearst1900 you sound like a moron. And also like you live in a very small apartment or have never been on a decent sized property. The guy hopped the fence, security guards would be at the gate where one drives up into the property. Brainiac.
@@RavenHearst1900 Fake? Your perception is fake. False. Your entire existence is delusional. You are either a monumental idiot or lost in a dream. Makes no difference if your eyes are open or closed- you're lost.
@@RavenHearst1900 Everybody’s giving you shit, but it does get AWFULLY quiet in rural areas. A sound like that would travel very far. If anything, his security guards were just incompetent though. Lying? Nah.
Great interviews. Never seen it before. Remember hearing of this in the news, and I was shocked. Feeling so much anger and hate towards the person who dared to attack Harrison. I really love him, and miss him. Peace and love is great for everyday use, but in situations like this, you really can''t beat the effect of a gun. In fact, it's been said that happiness is a warm gun.
Bless you Olivia . I have worked in security and investigations ,trying to subdue , someone that is hopped up and trying to put them down and keep them down is a true nightmare .
Ugh that makes me so mad to hear this story. George didn’t deserve anything like that, neither did Olivia and their family. George was such a great person, you could just tell. Even though George isn’t here anymore I respect him, great man and beyond talented. He had such a great personality. I love him. This story hurts my heart, George didn’t deserve anything bad that came his way, he’s one celebrity I just love and respect, even though he’s gone now and he died a few years before I was born, I respect him and love him. George’s music helps me so much and it means the world to me that someone like him was on this earth. Such a legend. George, we miss you so much and I love you and respect you so much, thanks for all the music, love you George. 😭❤️✌️
When Olivia saved him this night/morning is what gave him more time on this earth it may have been 4 more years but it was more time thank you Olivia your a saint ♥♥
I am 67 and have lived a lot of life. I feel the same way George did about sticking around. The only things I need to stay on this earth for are my two dogs. They need me and I need them. Other than that, there's no reason to remain here.
What is so incredible is unprovoked violence struck one very famous group of musicians (The Beatles) not once, but twice. Not to justify such, but one may at least understand John Lennon having been a target of violence, as he did and said some controversial things (the "more famous than Jesus" quote, his obviously left-wing politics, etc.) that would have invited enemies. But George Harrison was the Beatle most identified with peace and spirituality. I suppose an anti-Indian Muslim may have disliked Harrison for having identified with some Hindu teachings. But Harrison's efforts on behalf of Bangladeshi refugees should have earned him a place of respect, not contempt from anyone in that part of the world. Evidently the Harrisons' attacker was just mentally disturbed and nothing more to it than that in the way of an explanation.
wishwizard100 Well, not unless reports I heard and read were inaccurate. Michael Abram, the guy who stabbed George Harrison (reports vary from between 10 and over 40 times) and attacked his wife Olivia, apparently, had a history of schizophrenia. What I meant by my original comment is the motive for the attack of George Harrison was similar to the motives of Mark David Chapman for having killed Harrison's fellow Beatle, John Lennon, merely the delusions of an insane man, no other rational, underlying reasons for violence. In Chapman's case, the explanation given the public for Lennon's murder was Chapman had some sort of twisted interpretation of the J.D. Salinger novel "Catcher On The Rye, as well a lingering anger about Lennon's "bigger than Jesus" statement, and a wish to impress actress Jodie Foster. In the case of Abram, who was an untreated schizophrenic at the time he attacked Harrison, some reports alleged Abram believed Harrison and The Beatles to be witches, and he (Abram) heard secret messages in his head telling him Harrison must die. But there was no semi-plausible, reason-based motive for the attack on Harrison, such as for political reasons, some personal disagreement, a personal jealousy, etc., that brought about interaction. The Beatles were beyond mere celebrities, were icons of a generation whose lives are and were subject to more scrutiny than the average film actors or musicians. Of course part of this has been the manipulation of the media, as well The Beatles' publicists and record companies. But nonetheless, each Beatle has been a target for whatever dreams or delusions the public at-large cares to project on them, individually and collectively, from the moment The Beatles stepped off that airplane at John F. Kennedy Airport on February 7, 1964, and probably even a bit before. Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, and perhaps Mick Jagger and Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones, as well Michael Jackson, are the only other musicians who have incurred that manner of status, at least since the latter half of the 20th Century. But really, Elvis and The Beatles are in a league of their own in this regard. Anyway, Abram was released in July of 2002, after having finished his less than two-year term of court-ordered treatment in a "secure facility." But the conditions of Abram's release (by a U.K. review board comprised of a judge, psychiatrist and civilian) were very hush-hush. I found this in the London "Daily Mail"--"In this case, the tribunal has given a conditional discharge - the conditions, which remain confidential, are to ensure the safety and security of the public." One must wonder what the British government was keeping secret about this guy that would be a danger to public safety and security? Harrison's widow and son Dhani were, understandably, upset about Abram's release, not only for its occurrence but for not being informed before it happened. But the Harrisons have discovered what has troubled many in the United States for decades, after many states de-institutionalized dangerous mental patients; by the way, also the chief reason for the epidemic of homelessness since the early 1980s. But do you know something, "wishwizard100," further about Michael Abram? Your sarcasm begs curiosity. So please, share with us all.
gymnastix he should have stayed in hospital or at least have a monitor on ankle ! I swear when people have big amount of followers and activism involved they hire or put bug in crazy ear to kill them !

Beau Jester The way he worded it makes it clear that he said his son because that was his only unfinished business (Dhani was still a teen back then), so it would be the only thing to haunt him in the afterlife. He didn't say he would miss his son because he only loves him and not Olivia. He said he'd miss his son becaue Dhani still needed a father.
@@jennifermilligan5777 sorry to disappoint butt George cheated on both patti and Olivia like crazy. Patti left him for it but later regretted leaving him.. Olivia knew what she had and hung in there. He did the right thing and finally married a pregnant Olivia. I think he married her because she was strong. He treated Patti horribly.
I think its funny how George found humor about it later on he just played it off like it was nothing and that's why I love George RIP my friend you and john keep god tappin his feet for us
As a kid in 90s i'd skip school sometimes in Liverpool, forever music obsessed I'd often go to large HMV in town centre on church street to check out any new releases, where they'd play repetitive dance music extremely loud. I remember being there a particular day where there was noone in the shop but staff, the loud dance music an myself sifting through records, I turned around an noticed this guy bright blonde hair, frantically dancing to the music, middle of the day on his own.. as if he was im local cream dance clubs.. which I thought was very odd, around a week later this happened. Turns out it was this nut job who'd been let out of Rainhill mental institute.
+soulfoodie1 Yeah, I had a party at my house that night, one of the very few times I was able to coax my hermit ex to do anything on New Year's. But what strikes me here is that beyond his son, he wouldn't miss ANYONE? Not Olivia? That is crazy.
+Lisa Cunningham That comment has been much debated-I don't think George meant it to come out the way it did. George believed in reincarnation and that you find the people you love again and Olivia understands that
+soulfoodie1 Thank you. No disrespect meant towards George. He probably was just ill and very stressed out and didn't mean to say it like that. I don't know he believe in reincarnation. Thanks for sharing that! Buddhists as a rules believe in it but I am not aware of any Christian religions that do.
WOW! I can't believe this happened and I can't believe that I don't have a recollection of it. But what a wife/woman. I love that she invoked her father's lessons of "following through." What a F'd up scene; husband and wife both trying to kill someone-who was trying to kill them. As messed up as it was, there aren't many other situations that will unite/bond a couple os this one did.
I remember hearing something about this when I was a teen, but I had no idea how brutal it was. Good God man! But then again, I wasn't a Beatles fan back then. Probably listening to Eminem, Nas, or something
George was like the rest of the Beatles a pacifist. Always talking and singing about love. He would never have allowed any kind of weapon in his house.
***** Non-violent resistance isn't something you look up on google, it's a practice when under occupation. And it is not a substitute for repelling an invasion. Not even Gandhi advocated what idealists think of as pacifism. Perhaps you deserve a full scale British or occupation to drag you out of your armchair pacifism.
***** You're an ignorant pampered idiot who spouts things he doesn't know about. I'm Indian and quite aware of how Gandhi and others helped bring down the British. There have been freedom fighters in my family. Fuck off with your 'Meh' you cheap American hipster. Go take your non violent resistance to ISIS.
It is not easy to be a public figure. Once a man walked up and punched Elvis. Elvis had never seen the man before. Elvis asked the man "why did you punch me?' The man said because his wife had a picture of Elvis in her wallet.
to all who say that George should have had a gun- think about what happened to John Lennon. If the UK had the same gun laws as the USA Dhani Harrison would have started the new millennium an orphan
George said... "Take me to a place where there are NO PEOPLE!" And I said... "Amen to that, brother!" I believe Jim Morrison really meant to say "People Are F*cking Nuts".
At Ringo and Barbara Bach's wedding in April 1981 (less than six months after John's murder) Olivia Harrison wore a pro- gun control badge in John's memory. John was murdered by a legally obtained gun from Hawaii and there was no way of denying his killer (who I refuse to name) from obtaining a gun under Hawaii law George and Olivia were able to overcome Michael Abrams through the strength of their relationship not by gun violence. If the UK had same gun laws as USA Michael Abrams would have probably been able to obtain a gun and both George and Olivia have died that night. Olivia knows the effect lack of gun control in the USA has had on John's loved ones.
"Olivia Harrison wore a pro-gun control badge in John's memory." Lennon was shot in the back. Bang, bang, bang, bang... gone... At least you've got a chance when being attached with kitchen utensils.
Isaac Wale so you’re on this video too because of the Brian doing cocaine family guy UA-cam suggested video? And when you saw the Harrison scene in family guy you were like oh yeah he was stabbed I should check that out?!
@artiemilano378 Uh... No... I watched the family guy clip way after knowing about the stabbing. I was a Beatles fan way before Family guy. I was just bringing up a point. (Although obviously didn't comment that until after watching the clip for the first time)
Amplifies the difference between a country with strict gun laws and a country with grossly inadequate gun control - UK versus USA. Harrison was attacked in the UK by a nutter armed with a knife, probably because he wouldn't have been allowed to own a firearm even if he'd wanted to, due to his psychiatric illness; Lennon was attacked in New York by a nutter armed with a pistol loaded with hollow point bullets. Draw your own fairly obvious conclusions.
We Will Never Forget George Harrison, He Would Not Kiss The Royal Ring' And Get To Live Out A Full Life In Peace. For Many Years I Speculated in Deep Thought Regarding George's Attack, And Then Later When He Suddenly Contracted Cancer, Its Rather Strange' That This Happened So Soon, Within A Several Short Years, After This Intrusion And By An Assassin Attack, Still I thought Why? Its It Is My Belief To This Day, That The Blade Was Laced With A Toxin, That Was Meant To Cause The Cancer, Rest In Peace George' The Journey Does Not End When The Body Dies, The Soul Seeks Out A New Host And New Place To Reside, I Have Done This Thousands Of Times. Good Will Always Win Over Evil, When Our Souls Are Good, And We Stand By These Beliefs, We Come Back Over And Over Again, And Fight On The New Day. GOD Bless George' And Olivia' And All The Children' May They All Live A Full Measure Of Time, And For All the Disbelievers One Day You May Remember?
George Harrison was indeed a lucky man to have had Olivia Arias as his wife.
Carl HARRISON

I think of all The Beatles' wives & girlfriends, Olivia was the most amazing -- and very beautiful.
I agree- Liv is a wonderful person who maintains George's legacy with grace and humanity
Don't mess with Olivia
indeed! bless her- have you read her take down of Geoffrey Giluliano from 1992 - great stuff!
George said the only person he would miss if he died was his son, with a sad disappointed, half laugh. I can see why after getting a sense of her.

I remember the attack but never heard all the details before today . George was an amazing person beyond his Beatle fame and Olivia clearly a very special and strong person ..sure miss George and John .
Gotta love Olivia.
+CooManTunes abso-freaking-lutley. And George fans so
What a beautiful outlook. George truly suffered so much pain in the end. Just tragic.
george had big balls!
+lancashire bomber Yeah, who knew? lol
GamePlayWithNolan he blended his bravery with his humour, just like the last time ringo saw him in switzerland, ringo’s daughter had a brain tumor and had to go to boston, george was extremely ill at the time and offered to go with ringo
The biggest
Olivia was such a brave lady also who would not want to save your husband's life, George done his best
we all know this was George's downfall, i'm still sure if this did not happen that George would of still been here or maybe a few many more years, Life is short, enjoy each day that comes along
-I love the BIG smile at the end !! - George, ALWAYS keepin' it real !!!
The sound of his breathing in that last clip makes me well up every time
George Harrison a member of the greatest band ever doesn't have any security guards alarm system or a gun even?
He had security guards at the gates to his house, but this story is fake, and here's the reason why. The Harrison's "woke up" from something being thrown through one of the windows? I guess the security guards never even heard the sound?
RavenHearst1900 ...have you seen how big George’s house is?? The grounds???? If the guards were at the gates, it’s pretty plausible they may not have heard it. Of course, I forgot: you were there of course, not Olivia. My bad. Since you were for sure there and can for sure tell if that this woman who was there was lying then I’m sorry for being wrong.
@@RavenHearst1900 you sound like a moron. And also like you live in a very small apartment or have never been on a decent sized property. The guy hopped the fence, security guards would be at the gate where one drives up into the property. Brainiac.
@@RavenHearst1900 Fake? Your perception is fake. False. Your entire existence is delusional. You are either a monumental idiot or lost in a dream. Makes no difference if your eyes are open or closed- you're lost.
@@RavenHearst1900 Everybody’s giving you shit, but it does get AWFULLY quiet in rural areas. A sound like that would travel very far. If anything, his security guards were just incompetent though.
Lying? Nah.
Great interviews. Never seen it before. Remember hearing of this in the news, and I was shocked. Feeling so much anger and hate towards the person who dared to attack Harrison. I really love him, and miss him. Peace and love is great for everyday use, but in situations like this, you really can''t beat the effect of a gun. In fact, it's been said that happiness is a warm gun.
Oh George. He was a wonderful husband and father. I miss him so much.He was also a very good guitar player and composed many beatiful songs.
It’s sad that Dhani lost his father so young.
So did Sean Lennon ......
Bless you Olivia . I have worked in security and investigations ,trying to subdue , someone that is hopped up and trying to put them down and keep them down is a true nightmare .
Ugh that makes me so mad to hear this story. George didn’t deserve anything like that, neither did Olivia and their family. George was such a great person, you could just tell. Even though George isn’t here anymore I respect him, great man and beyond talented. He had such a great personality. I love him. This story hurts my heart, George didn’t deserve anything bad that came his way, he’s one celebrity I just love and respect, even though he’s gone now and he died a few years before I was born, I respect him and love him. George’s music helps me so much and it means the world to me that someone like him was on this earth. Such a legend. George, we miss you so much and I love you and respect you so much, thanks for all the music, love you George. 😭❤️✌️
Nobody deserves to be attacked like they were.
After the murder of John...then this???????? Those lunatics should really rott in prison!
George and Olivia…. That’s Love.And their son seems as lovely as his parents. Truly love all The Beatles and their kids❤️
RIP George we miss you since almost 20 years ago.
The deepest thinker of the four and, I think, the nicest, most down to earth of the four.
Just an absolutely fantastic man in so many ways. Love you too George ✌🏻
When George was talking about reasons to be hear at the end, I thought Olivia might get a mention!
What a strong beautiful woman Olivia is. She's amazing.
Amazing that the beatles were genuinely great comedians as well as musicians. Not many could get the better of them.
I’m started crying in like the first ten seconds of the video idk I’m just love the Beatles so much I don’t want anyone to hurt them
It’s crazy how he jokes about his experience .. he was on another level
That is a great woman! Great mother! GREAT WIFE!
When Olivia saved him this night/morning is what gave him more time on this earth it may have been 4 more years but it was more time thank you Olivia your a saint ♥♥
Well... it wasn't even 2 more years, but okay. This occurred on December 30, 1999 and George died on November 29, 2001.
YOU'RE a saint.
I am 67 and have lived a lot of life. I feel the same way George did about sticking around. The only things I need to stay on this earth for are my two dogs. They need me and I need them. Other than that, there's no reason to remain here.
Your dogs don't need you in particular, they simply need care...from anyone.
@@philip6502 hahah you had to edit that comment ??
@@cavbaron3634 haha yes I did as I like to make spelling corrections, Cab.
That ending part where George laughs at dying is haunting
I agree, but in reality, when he realised he had got life threatening cancer, he did everything he could to get cured.
R.I.P George. You will be loved forever
One amazing story to hear after all these years.
All Things Must Pass - don't be sad he's gone, be happy he was here.
aside from all the seriousness, olivia says "y'know" almost as much as paul
Harrison always had this Zen calm to him. The Indian experience with the Beatles really had a lifelong impact, it wasn't just a fad.
Thank got he lived; 2 murdered Beatles would have been too much to take!
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...
Hard to believe but clearly true. Thank goodness they survived. Wonderful people george olivia
Imagine being married to George Harrison
Olivia is lovely. And has good instincts.
What is so incredible is unprovoked violence struck one very famous group of musicians (The Beatles) not once, but twice.
Not to justify such, but one may at least understand John Lennon having been a target of violence, as he did and said some controversial things (the "more famous than Jesus" quote, his obviously left-wing politics, etc.) that would have invited enemies. But George Harrison was the Beatle most identified with peace and spirituality.
I suppose an anti-Indian Muslim may have disliked Harrison for having identified with some Hindu teachings. But Harrison's efforts on behalf of Bangladeshi refugees should have earned him a place of respect, not contempt from anyone in that part of the world. Evidently the Harrisons' attacker was just mentally disturbed and nothing more to it than that in the way of an explanation.
nothing more to it than that? riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
wishwizard100 Well, not unless reports I heard and read were inaccurate. Michael Abram, the guy who stabbed George Harrison (reports vary from between 10 and over 40 times) and attacked his wife Olivia, apparently, had a history of schizophrenia.
What I meant by my original comment is the motive for the attack of George Harrison was similar to the motives of Mark David Chapman for having killed Harrison's fellow Beatle, John Lennon, merely the delusions of an insane man, no other rational, underlying reasons for violence.
In Chapman's case, the explanation given the public for Lennon's murder was Chapman had some sort of twisted interpretation of the J.D. Salinger novel "Catcher On The Rye, as well a lingering anger about Lennon's "bigger than Jesus" statement, and a wish to impress actress Jodie Foster.
In the case of Abram, who was an untreated schizophrenic at the time he attacked Harrison, some reports alleged Abram believed Harrison and The Beatles to be witches, and he (Abram) heard secret messages in his head telling him Harrison must die.
But there was no semi-plausible, reason-based motive for the attack on Harrison, such as for political reasons, some personal disagreement, a personal jealousy, etc., that brought about interaction.
The Beatles were beyond mere celebrities, were icons of a generation whose lives are and were subject to more scrutiny than the average film actors or musicians. Of course part of this has been the manipulation of the media, as well The Beatles' publicists and record companies. But nonetheless, each Beatle has been a target for whatever dreams or delusions the public at-large cares to project on them, individually and collectively, from the moment The Beatles stepped off that airplane at John F. Kennedy Airport on February 7, 1964, and probably even a bit before. Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, and perhaps Mick Jagger and Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones, as well Michael Jackson, are the only other musicians who have incurred that manner of status, at least since the latter half of the 20th Century. But really, Elvis and The Beatles are in a league of their own in this regard.
Anyway, Abram was released in July of 2002, after having finished his less than two-year term of court-ordered treatment in a "secure facility." But the conditions of Abram's release (by a U.K. review board comprised of a judge, psychiatrist and civilian) were very hush-hush. I found this in the London "Daily Mail"--"In this case, the tribunal has given a conditional discharge - the conditions, which remain confidential, are to ensure the safety and security of the public."
One must wonder what the British government was keeping secret about this guy that would be a danger to public safety and security?
Harrison's widow and son Dhani were, understandably, upset about Abram's release, not only for its occurrence but for not being informed before it happened. But the Harrisons have discovered what has troubled many in the United States for decades, after many states de-institutionalized dangerous mental patients; by the way, also the chief reason for the epidemic of homelessness since the early 1980s.
But do you know something, "wishwizard100," further about Michael Abram? Your sarcasm begs curiosity. So please, share with us all.
gymnastix he should have stayed in hospital or at least have a monitor on ankle ! I swear when people have big amount of followers and activism involved they hire or put bug in crazy ear to kill them !
Lennon and Harrison both rejected Jesus Christ and gave their lives over to Satan, they reaped what they had sown.
Shaun Steele Derp.
Gotta love George's sense of humor. After all that finds the lighter side.
after Eric Idle, nudge, nudge, wink wink, that was Jackie Stewart? Good that George found Olivia.. post Beatle happiness.
Are you kidding ? George said the only thing he would miss if he died was his son, after a disappointing half laugh. I can understand why.
Troll- George and Olivia truly loved each other- George recorded two love song for Olivia on his final album - 'Never Get Over you' and 'Rocking Chair in Hawaii' and he wanted to spend a lot of time alone with her in 2000-2001 . Look at photos from the lstt two yeas of his life where he has his arms around Olivia and looks so happy with her. Exactly what part of getting up and fighting a maniac even though you have been very seriously stabbed when he stats attacking the woman you love and what part of fighting a man half your age and twice your weight when he is attacking the man you love do you not get? And who did George want by his side through his final illness?- Go read what Klaus Voormann and Ken Scott have written about how united George and Olivia were
Beau Jester The way he worded it makes it clear that he said his son because that was his only unfinished business (Dhani was still a teen back then), so it would be the only thing to haunt him in the afterlife.
He didn't say he would miss his son because he only loves him and not Olivia. He said he'd miss his son becaue Dhani still needed a father.
@@jennifermilligan5777 sorry to disappoint butt George cheated on both patti and Olivia like crazy. Patti left him for it but later regretted leaving him.. Olivia knew what she had and hung in there. He did the right thing and finally married a pregnant Olivia. I think he married her because she was strong. He treated Patti horribly.
I think its funny how George found humor about it later on he just played it off like it was nothing and that's why I love George RIP my friend you and john keep god tappin his feet for us
His laugh at the end 👌❤️😂
Just hit me that this event was almost 15 years ago....FIFTEEN YEARS?!?! I can' believe it!
A close friend of mine stayed with them in the late 80’s. Had a great time with all the musicians
As a kid in 90s i'd skip school sometimes in Liverpool, forever music obsessed I'd often go to large HMV in town centre on church street to check out any new releases, where they'd play repetitive dance music extremely loud.
I remember being there a particular day where there was noone in the shop but staff, the loud dance music an myself sifting through records, I turned around an noticed this guy bright blonde hair, frantically dancing to the music, middle of the day on his own.. as if he was im local cream dance clubs.. which I thought was very odd, around a week later this happened. Turns out it was this nut job who'd been let out of Rainhill mental institute.
No way, for real?
Brave woman. Respect.
Rest in peace, such a beautiful man.
God this sounds so scary. I can hardly listen to it. Some people really suck. George contributed such beautiful things.
God bless George. He knew where he was going.
What's even more crazy is this happened New Years eve. Nice way to start the year.
+Ka Boom what's more it was New Year before milennium
+soulfoodie1 Yeah, I had a party at my house that night, one of the very few times I was able to coax my hermit ex to do anything on New Year's. But what strikes me here is that beyond his son, he wouldn't miss ANYONE? Not Olivia? That is crazy.
+Lisa Cunningham That comment has been much debated-I don't think George meant it to come out the way it did. George believed in reincarnation and that you find the people you love again and Olivia understands that
+Lisa Cunningham but I get and respect your point!
+soulfoodie1 Thank you. No disrespect meant towards George. He probably was just ill and very stressed out and didn't mean to say it like that. I don't know he believe in reincarnation. Thanks for sharing that! Buddhists as a rules believe in it but I am not aware of any Christian religions that do.
Good job Olivia, could've been so much worse if not for her intervention.
WOW! I can't believe this happened and I can't believe that I don't have a recollection of it. But what a wife/woman. I love that she invoked her father's lessons of "following through." What a F'd up scene; husband and wife both trying to kill someone-who was trying to kill them. As messed up as it was, there aren't many other situations that will unite/bond a couple os this one did.
Even the context when George started laughing at the end I just had to laugh too
I remember hearing something about this when I was a teen, but I had no idea how brutal it was. Good God man! But then again, I wasn't a Beatles fan back then. Probably listening to Eminem, Nas, or something
George was like the rest of the Beatles a pacifist. Always talking and singing about love. He would never have allowed any kind of weapon in his house.
I hope you don't ask the police or military to defend you or your country. Because asking someone to do it for you isn't pacifist.
***** Non-violent resistance isn't something you look up on google, it's a practice when under occupation. And it is not a substitute for repelling an invasion. Not even Gandhi advocated what idealists think of as pacifism. Perhaps you deserve a full scale British or occupation to drag you out of your armchair pacifism.
***** You're an ignorant pampered idiot who spouts things he doesn't know about. I'm Indian and quite aware of how Gandhi and others helped bring down the British. There have been freedom fighters in my family. Fuck off with your 'Meh' you cheap American hipster. Go take your non violent resistance to ISIS.
oscar wilde said that i think
Olivia is an 👼 angel
It is not easy to be a public figure. Once a man walked up and punched Elvis. Elvis had never seen the man before. Elvis asked the man "why did you punch me?' The man said because his wife had a picture of Elvis in her wallet.
to all who say that George should have had a gun- think about what happened to John Lennon. If the UK had the same gun laws as the USA Dhani Harrison would have started the new millennium an orphan
+soulfoodie1 NYC has UK-style gun laws (the Sullivan Act, etc.).
+Joel Holmes er no it does not-
Just TRY legally purchasing or owning a firearm or any "deadly weapon" (including e.g., nunchucks!) there!
Or George would have killed the intruder
@@williambagley5415 he was very against guns he said once
"if everyone who had a gun shot themselves there wouldn't be a problem"
George feared for his life since Lennon was killed. People thought he was paranoid.
George said... "Take me to a place where there are NO PEOPLE!"
And I said... "Amen to that, brother!"
I believe Jim Morrison really meant to say "People Are F*cking Nuts".
I don't think George is talking about his stabbing--sounds like he is talking about his cancer from 1997
At Ringo and Barbara Bach's wedding in April 1981 (less than six months after John's murder) Olivia Harrison wore a pro- gun control badge in John's memory. John was murdered by a legally obtained gun from Hawaii and there was no way of denying his killer (who I refuse to name) from obtaining a gun under Hawaii law George and Olivia were able to overcome Michael Abrams through the strength of their relationship not by gun violence. If the UK had same gun laws as USA Michael Abrams would have probably been able to obtain a gun and both George and Olivia have died that night. Olivia knows the effect lack of gun control in the USA has had on John's loved ones.
Well said
john tudor thank you! appreciated
Nine out of ten criminals use stolen guns not ones obtain with a permit.
Ignorant comment.
"Olivia Harrison wore a pro-gun control badge in John's memory."
Lennon was shot in the back. Bang, bang, bang, bang... gone...
At least you've got a chance when being attached with kitchen utensils.
Olivia is a BADASS
Where the hell were the body guards?!
Oh... Damn you Peter Griffon
Isaac Wale so you’re on this video too because of the Brian doing cocaine family guy UA-cam suggested video? And when you saw the Harrison scene in family guy you were like oh yeah he was stabbed I should check that out?!
@artiemilano378 Uh... No... I watched the family guy clip way after knowing about the stabbing.
I was a Beatles fan way before Family guy.
I was just bringing up a point.
(Although obviously didn't comment that until after watching the clip for the first time)
Amplifies the difference between a country with strict gun laws and a country with grossly inadequate gun control - UK versus USA. Harrison was attacked in the UK by a nutter armed with a knife, probably because he wouldn't have been allowed to own a firearm even if he'd wanted to, due to his psychiatric illness; Lennon was attacked in New York by a nutter armed with a pistol loaded with hollow point bullets. Draw your own fairly obvious conclusions.
+Rex Mundi thanks for this- it needed saying
I mean, being stabbed ten times takes as much of a toll on the constitution as being shot six times, I bet
george wasnt talking about the knife attack, that was recorded like 10 years before
George thinking that the only reason to continue living is for his son who needs him🥺 he was a great man❤
Olivia saved George!
We Will Never Forget George Harrison, He Would Not Kiss The Royal Ring' And Get To Live Out A Full Life In Peace. For Many Years I Speculated in Deep Thought Regarding George's Attack, And Then Later When He Suddenly Contracted Cancer, Its Rather Strange' That This Happened So Soon, Within A Several Short Years, After This Intrusion And By An Assassin Attack, Still I thought Why? Its It Is My Belief To This Day, That The Blade Was Laced With A Toxin, That Was Meant To Cause The Cancer, Rest In Peace George' The Journey Does Not End When The Body Dies, The Soul Seeks Out A New Host And New Place To Reside, I Have Done This Thousands Of Times.
Good Will Always Win Over Evil, When Our Souls Are Good, And We Stand By These Beliefs, We Come Back Over And Over Again, And Fight On The New Day.
GOD Bless George' And Olivia' And All The Children' May They All Live A Full Measure Of Time, And For All the Disbelievers One Day You May Remember?
Oh no :(
Omg George's son is gorgeous.. just like his dad 8:16...he looks so much like him
