Tom Selleck Sets the Record Straight on Three Men and a Baby's Ghost Boy
/ fallontonight
I'm blown away by how many people in the comment section know Tom Selleck from 'Friends'. Does no one recognize him as Magnum PI? How fucking old am I?
never watched friends. but I remember him as magnum pi.
Pernicion Blue bloods.
I'm 20 and i watched him in both Magnum PI and Friends.
looooved that show!
I watched it on Netflix
That is the most legendary mustache in history.
Indeed it is.
Nope. Freddie Mercury beat him.
No, Michael Cera's is.
Oscar Brito hahah
Ever seen Sam Elliott
When I was 10 my stepmom said she had footage of a real ghost. She showed me the 3 men and a baby ghost scene. Scared the daylights out of me. I was legitimately traumatized for weeks.
I still am!! 😂😂😂
Same here
That's hilarious hahaha
@@JuniorB.KC41you’re traumatized over a card board cut out?
@@thegreyavenger2I bet you’re a tRump supporter
The ghost from Three Men and a Baby was a childhood staple for 80s kids.
Chandler: That's all I ever hear about. "Richard Richard Richard"
Mon: Since we've been together I've mentioned his name maybe twice.
Chan: Ok then, "Richard Richard"
Three Men and a Baby/Three Men and a Little Lady were what first ever introduced me to Tom Selleck. But "Friends" is where I most closely associate him with now.
@@sarahsullivan4914 F•R•I•E•N•D•S and Magnum P.I. are where I know him from
I remember seeing that ghost for the first time as a kid and it's what first got me into the world of the paranormal lol
Bubblegum Witch I've been involved in the paranormal for literally my whole life, all the women on my dads side of the family have the "gift" of sensitivity to spirits, some stronger than others, and they passed it down to me☺️
It can be kinda scary sometimes, but for the most part it isn't scary at all.
+Hannah Smith That's amazing, the rest of my family just thinks it's all bs. I agree though. If there are negative entity's or forces around then you have to be careful and protect yourself but for the most part, it's not scary at all. I find it fascinating more than anything. I'm thankful for that sixth sense because more than anything, it helps me understand the other side a bit better. I think it's important for them to know that their voices can be heard and not feared :)
Hannah Smith prove it

@@ceecee8757 some of those still don't really 100% match their explanation pictures.
I can listen to Tom's voice for dayssss. so soothing.
When I was a kid this urban legend always fascinated me. It gave me the chills when I’d rewind & pause that part. I know it’s not a real ghost, but back then it really creeped me out.
It is. They’re lying, trust me. If you look at the deleted scene with the cut out of Jack, it looks nothing like what we see in the window.
@@SenoritaTorres1 its not. You can zoom In and tell... its a cardboard cut out of somebody. Its extremely 2 dimensional.. you can see the edges too much
@@testdrivegarage2656 what if the ghost is 2D
@@uhjeff3651 ghost of Flat Stanley lol
@@churrocharcharm It was Casper.
I can't tell you how many sleepovers I had and pulled this the movie out and showed it to my friends and it scarred the craps out of us 😂
3 men and a bride already exists. It is called, Mamma Mia.
How has this comment not got more likes?
Rosie Rennie i like it, made a small dent.
I want to say "How dare you.", but you're right...
Too bad it wasn't good in my opinion.
You forgot runaway bride
3 men fuck wife
I remember renting the movie just to catch that scene.. boy it certainly gave me goosebumps.
Tom Selleck is a legend. Love him.
He was bad in Las Vegas

Tom Selleck has barely aged in 30 years - wow!
Wullef83 Bullshit, he’s old!
Movies by E yeah he’s clearly old but I think what he’s saying is that is doesn’t look bad
He’s hasn’t aged because he’s always looked older
@@moviesbye9294 HE WAS GORGEOUS ON MAGNUM PI.
@@vandalynwilkerson3498
He is still gorgeous
Holy crap is that Richard 😨😨
Ghaliah Abdullah yup he's grandpa old now
No. That's Jesse Stone.
Ghaliah Abdullah yup
No, that's Thomas Magnum.
Ghaliah Abdullah no that's his twin brother Picherd
I remember seeing that little boy in a video of it when I was very young and I was absolutely terrified. I still can’t even look at the images of it. 😂
I was a kid just starting to pride myself on not believing in ghosts when this was 1st shown to me and an immediate chill went through me... postponing my non-fear of ghost on delay for another few years.
You can explain the ghost as being a cut out of Ted but if you watch slowly, when he is dragging his Mom into the room and right after she says "You boys live like pigs", you can see a shotgun ...barrel down... in the window THEN after she picks up Mary and walks by again it's the "ghost" Just thought I would share...the folklore about it is some kid shot himself at that spot and that's why you see both the shotgun and a ghost (aka Ted cut out).
Hmmm it s pretty a massive barrel for a even a double barrel shotgun at approx 5.5 seconds into this clip. It just strange it's one long shot and the cardboard cut out doesn't seem to be in the same position when they pan past that window area the first time (Where you refer to a shotgun). Then it's there on the way back. :D ua-cam.com/video/LPEvJrs-1yM/v-deo.html
The curtains just probably moved tbh
30 years that poster has been around and I never noticed the pee stain. Just the weird face Danson is making.
Lol They actually just told him to make his “O” Face
He looks like Teddy Roosevelt
Hahaha! That's a good one. I love Selleck and Roosevelt
Both are national treasures
But better looking
@Very Fake News don't care
Almost!
Thanks Jimmy for bringing superstars of the 80s to your show
M A G N U M
only 80/90s kids understand who he was and why is a Ferrari 308 GTB/S my favorite car :)))))
And those shorts!Hmmm yeah.
Its actually a phorrari. I seen it at universal studios and the engine is out of a VW. Just and interesting fact for ya
I was born in 2001 and I know magnum. One of my favorite shows
Best show ever. Born in the 60s
Yes! Three Men and a Bride! DO IT!
It'd be even cooler if they got Robin Weisman to play Mary again, though it seems highly unlikely. Nancy Travis, on the other hand, well, she has nothing better to do.
imdb88 Lisa and Michelle Blair were who played Mary.
Well not there's a reboot happening
I love this dude... Epic man from my childhood! Terrific actor.
I can't wait to see the movie because middle School was nothing but talk about that ghost boy!
Tom Selleck is a tv legend! Two hit shows in Magnum PI and Blue Bloods! 3 Men and a Baby a classic!
I watched an HD copy of the movie a couple years ago. At that resolution, you can EASILY see that it's a cutout of Ted Danson. As much as anything, this was a product of the poor picture quality of VHS and CRT televisions.
But, hey, these urban legends are fun. I had friends in school who REFUSED to drink Mountain Dew because of that yellow 5 rumor in the 90s.
So why is it barely visible or not visible the 1st time they pass the window but, when they go near the window the second time... its clearly visible??
@@derk4737 Small continuity errors like that are common in films and TV. They do different takes and reshoot from multiple angles and patch it all together in editing, etc, etc.
@@nrrork exactly, you can always tell people who don't know how movies work by comments like that post you're replying to. Lol. For those of us who know how movies work, it's like there's are pretty hilarious.
Yeah i was so sad when i finally saw a widescreen dvd print of it
@@mccallosone4903 Sad that the story of a dead child unable to find a peaceful rest and forced to haunt the living for eternity turned out to be false? 😁
That DID scare the hell out of me when I was little, though.
U can see a riffle in same window upside down right before you see the boy
I saw the story of the ghost on CNN in the middle of the night way back in 93. It was my night off, i was sitting there leaning back in my chair with a bowl of cereal on my lap, and the newscaster announced the story. They showed the clip, freeze framed it, blacked out the rest of the screen, and zoomed in on the "ghost". I screamed like a girl, flipped backwards out of my chair, and crashed to the floor doused with milk. I cowered behind the chair as they explained the myth and idnt sleep a wink that night. The next day i bought a copy at walmart and proceeded to show the ghost to everyone i knew. Years later, when the dvd was released i was crushed to see that it very clearly was a cutout standee of ted danson. Oh well. Magnum forever!
🙄
I've seen the 1st and the sequel but I see Tom now as the commissioner of NYPD!!! ☺️😊
Little Susie more like the guy who owns the newspaper in spiderman
amal zuhair - sorry but I'm a fan of Blue Bloods the series where he plays the commissioner...and he portrays it very well...hence the reason why I now only see him as Commissioner Frank Reagan! 👮🏻👍🏻😉
I heard about a third film in the series back in November 2009, I think it was. But now, 7 years and 3 months later, nothing.
Even ghosts stop and stare at his legendary mustache.
Quite weird the card board cut out has his arms up but the one in the window has his arms down
"Three Men and a Bride" WOULD BE SUCH A HIT!!!
The original movie in vhs had the ghost in it. It was not a deleted scene. Clearly when the camera pans to the right nothing is there except a rifle, then when it pans to the left the ghost is there. As a kid it was really scary. My brother only rented the movie from blockbuster to fast forward to this scene. It scared all the kids in the neighborhood.
I'm still living in hope for 3 Men and a Bride. I was ridiculously excited when I first heard the rumour.
Ngaire Sinéad it already exists it’s called mamma Mia
Three men and a bride needs to be made!
Hey Richard!!! 🚬🚬🚬
Joey Tribbiani How you doin?
Richard looks the same
And if he'd married Monica back in 1995 then their kid would've been off to college already
A third “Three Men” movie would do incredibly well, financially. People have so much nostalgia for that franchise.
If they ever made a 3rd instalment I would definitely go see it.
He’s still gorgeous. I watched Three Men and a Baby again yesterday. I was practically drooling. 😂 Those baby scenes were amazing. She even fell asleep on cue. Beautiful baby too which of course were twins.
Here's the problem with the explanation though....
If you watch the scene, it is continuous, without any breaks. It passes over the window the first time following the actors, when the apparition is hardly present, then when it passes back over the window following the actors going back the other way, the apparition is very prominent.
Now, if it is indeed a cutout poster board of Ted Danson, the that means that someone had to run into the shot while the scene was filming, and place the cutout inside the drapes of the window, then run back off set before Ted Danson and the other actress came back the other way.
Would the director actually allow that to happen during filming?
No, he's not saying he's right Keefy1106. Look, we've heard no definitive, or in any way convincing explanation from Tom, or anyone else that it's NOT a spook. The explanation we do have is that home video producers felt it was something that warranted attention and as a result, digitally erased the appearance of it from the DVD release because we were told this was on lawful demand from the dead boy's mother. Now we're going by what we've heard from past accounts Keefy1106, we're not making wild assumptions.
I know, and I'me right with you on that question Randy. As you suggested, someone placed the cutout inside the drapes of the window and then ran back off set? My arse, you know it and I know it. They knew it was a fucking spook because the dead boy's mother on lawful grounds, demanded the removal of it from DVD releases.
I’ve always loved Tom Selleck and that movie is amazing! I sang Goodnight Sweetheart to my baby girl from the day she was born. Literally the first day.
The moustache god.
0:37 Jimmy laughing at the thought of someone having a genuine expression
STILL SO RIDICULOUSLY HANDSOME! MY FOREVER HEART-THROB
Selleck treats this sooooo well. Perfect 👌
I remember renting that movie every halloween just for that scene lol
Lmfao 🤣🤣🤣
Can't wait for the sequel. 3 Men and Ghost Boy plus a new baby.
Tom selleck has aged very well
That was a ghost. If you look at the cut out of Jack, it looks nothing like what we see in the window.
Just still so darn handsome...
"For once in my life a genuine expression" . unlike the following response from Jimmy Fallon... lol
He's a fake..i don't like the idiot, he fake laughs at his guests jokes and touches there shoulder sometimes when he does ..plus like I see here, he's very interrupting..let the Guy speak and explain ...Christ .
They need to do a sequel where Mary is now having the change THEIR diapers...lol
I like how Tom never actually "set the record straight" of whether or not it's a ghost or whatever the hell that was.
Cardboard cutout.
It’s not a cardboard cutout
Forget Three Men and a Bride, give me a sequel to the 1984 film Runaway!
I remember the first time I noticed this, I got goosebumps and the hair on the back of my neck was straight back to the wall. Still to this day I get the chills just watching that part. Why would they remove it from the DVD release? It’s a cover up.
They removed it from the DVD release on demand from the dead boy's mother I believe. I think she threatened to sue the producers if the removal wasn't carried out because she didn't want the spook of her son being the key point of interest and having domestic sales exploit the situation, which to me seems a little over the fucking top. Then again Joe, it was meant to be a movie about three men and a baby, not a movie about a fucking spook. Now please Joe, don't quote me on that, it's just a reference to early theories which I heard became more reasonably founded. Even now Joe, it's still as fucking spooky as the day it was recorded.
@@31cify interesting. They try to explain it away, but what about the inverted gun silhouette in the same window when they move back across the room. My understanding there were supposed to be other scenes in the movie where the kid showed up, but I haven't watched the whole movie since I found the main scene. Funny, I rented the vhs and never saw it. Then one night it was on regular TV and I got chills when I saw it, circa 1988.
@@31cify Did you call him by name enough lol? You sound on edge now.. Bro
@@bobsagert2276 On edge is completely right. I've never in all my days had such an eerie feeling thinking about this.
46 yrs old and im finally seeing this genuinely... Absolutely 💯 💯 real
I would definitely see Three Men and a Bride if they would make it. Loved the Three Men movies.
Love Tom in anything. Truly love Blue Bloods he is fantastic on that show and it is an amazing show. I would absolutely go see a sequel to Three Men and a Baby.... that would be awesome:)
3 men and a little lady was the sequel :)
Oh my god. I remember that! So cool to finally find out what it was! 😀
I will always be in love with Tom Selleck.
Would love, love to see a sequel they were talking about, with the proposed name Three Fathers Of The Bride.
this is the first time i"ve seen richard out of friends. thank you mr. selleck, you were and will always be the perfect richard. :) God bless!
I love that movie, and I didn't know they made it when I was only 4 years old.
I was 4 too
That movie came out in ‘87, so that would make the “bride” 37. This concept has a shelf life.
Richard is still rocking the tache!!
One of my favorite childhood movies!
Tom selleck is up there in my favorite actors
I remember being 4 or 5 when my older cousins were rewinding and replaying that “dead kid in then window” part in the movie on VHS.
Tom Selleck & Sam Elliott need to star in a comedy about 2 cowboys feuding over who has the more legendary mustache
I mean... here, take my money!
What most people don't know this, but Tom Selleck was originally cast as Indiana Jones and about to start shooting the movie when his contract and filming schedule for Magnum PI got in the way so CBS wouldn't let him do the movie. Harrison Ford obviously replaced him and the rest is history.
William Shatner and Tom Selleck have discovered the fountain of youth, folks! 😊
Most famous mustache's no particular order:
1) Tom Selleck
2) Steve Harvey
3) Hitler
4) Rosie O'Donell
5) My Mother-In-Law
Freddie mercury
June, 2023 and still no Three Men & A Bride. Sad times.
Three Men and a Bride?! Holy heck yes! Totally down to watch that!
That would be amazing if they did three men and a bride :) I love those movies :))
I love Tom Selleck’s voice, lol....has he ever done cartoon voice acting? He should 😄😄
He was in Meet the Robinsons as the voice of Lewis as an adult, just so you know.
I would watch that movie with my mom 10 times if they made a third one!!! Awesome idea!!!❤❤❤
If they made Three Men and a Bride they would DEFINITELY make a supernatural easter egg 🤣 Like Haunting of Hill House. Man, that would be so creepy in a comedy movie though.
Well even to this day, there's still people who don't buy the cardboard cutout scenario. I mean, it's not there when they walk over to Mary, and yet it is there as they walk back towards the camera. This is just as spooky as hell because if you keep watching closely, the god damn thing actually moves. Now we're told that this was all done in one take, no edits, so if this is true then how the fuck did this thing just appear between the curtains? Continuity error? Bollocks! They knew it was a fucking spook because they edited it out of the DVD release.
Plus the cutout in the top hat looks nothing like what's in the window
So...I don't know if anyone is going to know what I'm talking about but Tom Selleck now sounds like the voice over for the old Cadbury egg commercials.
tkmaz
Omg yes!!!! Lol
How about 3 men & a ghost boy?
Me loves some Tom Selleck! My daughter plays 3 men and a baby over and over.
Set what straight? I have never heard a reasonable explanation for this mysterious kid since the movie was released. He never even gave a solid answer or anything in this interview to debunk it. Use an old back ground? Split screen? Green screen? Did they have that technology in the mid 80s?The movie set has nothing to do with spirits popping up on camera. It could be many things. A boy could have died on the land or a near by property many years ago or someone on the set could have had a spirit follow them from there home. I wish people would stop assuming ghosts are only found in abandoned houses, graveyards or creepy places. Even a great icon like Tom is so quick to rule out the possibility of a ghost being caught on camera simply because the set was made and its not where ghost are seen. Still waiting for an explanation...1984 Runaway was a great movie!
Some people don't believe in ghosts, me I've never seen one except in pictures in books and online but my mum may have caught a picture of one of her dead cats in her home but it is not definite but that doesn't mean I don't believe in ghosts. I know someone who is a medium. I hope they do exist.
In a surprised Selleck voice: " And and, this is a GOOD IDEA !, from DISNEY !!!" LOL
Would be nice if they did a 30th Anniversary cast reunion with the 3 guys and Nancy Travis. Maybe even with the twins who played baby Mary!
Yes!
My grandma is in love with this guy come on 😁😁💐🏆👍
He didn’t set the record at all lol he never explained where that kid came from...
Tom did his best, to avoid clearing up the myth of the little boy in the window.
If you pause & zoom in it's clearly David S. Pumpkins... "Any questions?"
He is still rocking in a cop series called BLUE BLOOD
I would love to see all original, Three Men and A Baby, leading men together again in a movie. I love the idea of Three Men and A Bride but if not that, then something else. I thought they all worked great together.
Yes I would definitely go see Three Men and a Bride
This is my favorute movie love the second one its my favorite
Normally i'm not a stache Fan. But there are two Persons on earth who suit the hell out of it. That was Freddie Mercury and Tom Selleck
Burt Reynolds
There’s a German movie called Three Turks and a Baby. A masterpiece[for the country it’s in tbh]. I don’t know how other people might react to it, but I like it.
Hide Monica! It's Richard!
Greatest mustache in the land
Honestly a recap! We need it!
Tom was the shit in “Mr Baseball” ⚾️
