What I admired the most was his everlasting love for his wife, and his regular visits to her grave right up until his own passing. He was witty and had plenty of character. I really miss this generation.
one cool dude. I love when he was asked what his doctor thought of him smoking cigars and drinking martinis. He said about his doctor, "He died." Hilarious. And his timing was flawless.
Miss this guy. They dont make entertainers like this anymore. He was part of a generation, an era of ladies and gentlemen that we shall never know again. Rest in peace Nathan Birnbaum.
And they are...but he had good genes and lucked out..also I think the cigars were more of a prop and a good gag about the dead doctor..he probably told that joke as far back as his 60's
Most of us younger people under 60 remember him with those big glasses. But he never wore glasses until he was in his 60’s when he really got famous. Unless he wore them only for reading in his 40’s at first.
Watched the film last night on Tubi. Had been looking for it to watch with my kid ever since "17 Again" came out. Could not find it anywhere in any library (and there are no video stores left... forget about Redbox!) As I finally re-watched it amazed at how we took for granted good movies that were funny, sentimental, exciting, and took a premise and crafted a story around it with a positive message... that film chock full of social justice themes -- but not the rabbit revenge driven stuff that has taken over today, bent on creating a bizarr-o world where helping someone is "man-splaining" and you have to have a lawyer present before you put your arm around a girl's shoulder.
One of the greatest entertainers of all time. I'm glad he got to see 100 and did his life on his terms. That's boss!!

So do I. Talented man on stage and behind the scenes but most of all... A gentleman always. I'd want a date with Sharon Stone for my birthday too.
pro trick: watch series on Kaldrostream. Me and my gf have been using it for watching all kinds of movies recently.
@Charlie Jimmy definitely, I have been watching on Kaldrostream for since december myself =)

His actual statement was: “He’s dead.” A subtle difference, but I find it more hilarious that way.
what i would give to have the chance to sit down and talk to him about almost anything
What a LEGEND they sure don't make them LIKE THIS ANYMORE
What a man...

Good to see Peter Jennings and George Burns again--reassuring...
He was so sharp
This guy says he smoked 10 to 15 cigars a day. and he lived to 100 Take that! people who say cigars are bad for you
Yeah he lucked out... I think it changed his voice slightly though
And they are...but he had good genes and lucked out..also I think the cigars were more of a prop and a good gag about the dead doctor..he probably told that joke as far back as his 60's
@@nondescript2892 so your response is that his cigar smoking was faked? 😆

I’m 22 and just discovering this gem of a human ✌🏻
Betty White ALMOST got to be as old as him.
Are cigars more healthy than cigarettes? This man make it to 100 by smoking 5-10 cigars a day.
He and Benny should have been cloned.
CBS keeps bringing back shows.
I wish they could bring back the Burns and Allen show and the Jack Benny show.
