I myself was a fan in the 90s and a kid that same time, too. That's excellent that the show did that for you. I myself did heavily consider enlisting in the Army or especially the U.S.A.'s Airforce. I'm now merely three lousy years past the 35 years of age maximum. This clip... this clip f-ing resonates with quite a bit still and I'm 38 now.
I have realized I've unconsciously looked into that- I've checked out, just for the Hell of it, some 'Gravity Falls' clips. Neil DeGrasse Tyson does some CAMEOS in some episodes as a super-smart PIG! LOL! Smart humor ALWAYS ROCKS! lol!
My family didn't have cable, but, when this episode aired- like many of the others, it gradually resonated with me and STILL DOES. I'm 38 now. The writing?! The writing of this show got incredibly high-end in quality at times in some episodes. This scene is a masterwork compared to 99% of other "kids' shows", then and now. There's still pretty good ones being made, we're just a lot older and tastes change, other than maturity averages mentally-
Don't. They have their treasured cartoons too, just like we did. Twenty years later, they'll look back and get emotional, just like we are. Nostalgia is a powerful feeling.

I remember when I first saw this I was sad at the ending, but I never truly understood it. Twenty years later watching this on youtube did I finally understand and cried so hard. And the thing about it that you hear stories about old soldiers leading frightened and lost men like Baloo to safety, men who had died years ago but who were described as alive and real. Its like the old saying, that old soldiers don't die they fade away. Well if that's true, then I guess sometimes they do fade back. Especially when they are needed.
I LOVE how the planes are shown in that flashback the turtle character wearing glasses explains! Those... Those types of PLANES SHOWN, were obviously ones in WW2... an incredibly-great depiction of simulation writing of a noble character, during insane times! ☝😢👌 An example of manliness, in a historical simulation through writing effectively. So epic. Nobody cares this was cartoon when it's THIS good! 😊
Everything about this this episode, this scene especially is truly amazing. The entire mise-en scene was handled so well in this scene, the animation, the detail, and especially the music added to the retelling of Joe's life and the episode's twist ending. I have always found it a bit sad but more so enlightening and spiritually uplifting at the same time especially with how Baloo refers to Joe as his guardian angel. I think this is an episode that everyone in their own way can relate to. And even though it brings tears to my eyes every time I have seen it since its first airing, its a beautiful sadness that brings comfort and warmth. Truly the best episode in the series.
Watched this episode more than 25 years ago (in Hindi) and it still brings a tear to my eye 😢. My favorite episode of the entire series, brings back my childhood memories!

Yeah, other than the lazy character name- this was very high-end quality writing for what is easily thought of as a mere 'kids' show'. It resonates with me _still_ , and I've been a fan when it was new in the early 90s. I'm f-ing _38_ now. :P
This has been rattling around in the back of my head for the past 30 years, and I finally sought it out. I wasn't able to grasp the gravity of it then, but it certainly has an impact now.
It's a very good episode segment, from a more than decent episode. It's an example of both nobleness and positive ghost-fantasy.

Bomber matches a Handley Page Halifax or a Avro Lancaster Heavy British Bomber both had first flight in 1940-41 however the design of both was around the mid to late 1930s. Given the nature of the cartoon it appears that aircraft tech is somewhere around the late 20's early 30s however Baloo makes mention of the Sea Duck being around 30 years old itself (likely rounding the numbers) so the timelime in the show wouldn't be the same as ours. Think Crimson Skies or other stories or worlds similar. Little known fact the Sea Duck is actually based on possibly the G21 Goose and Fairchild C-82 Packet.
Wow... I myself am an amatuer writer. My latest story _IS_ a WW2 fanfiction, where I 'merely' add in my own fictional nation based off when I'd play nation simulator games like 'Civilization V'.

Damn. That heroic music that starts at 9sec. I hade it in my head a few days ago and i couldnt figure out what it was. But something in the back of my head said "Tailspin"
@@zombiejlt1 It could be from the Camouflage song by Stan Ridgeway. You may be telling true boy but this here is Camouflage and he's been right here since he passed away last night. So now its You may be telling true Baloo but this here is Pilot Joe and he's been right here since he passed away 30 years
When exactly did Talespin take place? If it was in the 40's, I don't think they had bombers like that 20 years prior. And if it was the 30's, then it's even less likely. Even as a kid, that didn't make sense to me.
I think it takes place in the 30's because TV is not invented yet and one episode has Baloo tell a WW1 solider who was frozen in ice that the great war ended 20 years ago.
Hard to believe 27 years have passed since this show first aired.time really flies man
Yeah memories
Nostalgic huh ?
"the sky's are yours" at the end lol
Yeah I watched this show myself and it was wonderful. Time really flies alright
No words. It's hard to believe this episode made me a pilot and a soldier.

I remember seeing this when it originally aired. I was in elementary school. It was the only time television caused me to shed a tear.
I remember too
How old were you when you saw this?
@@Johnlindsey289 like 7 or 8, lol 😔

Joe McGee summed up the TaleSpin version of Baloo perfectly: Up here, you're free as a bird. The skies are yours.
Those words are something my probably would of said. He passed away 20 years ago Oct. I watch this episode. Maybe a few years after
Always makes me cry.
Best scene in the whole show.
Yeah it was good ending but didn't make me cry.
Either tears or goosebumps!! Sometimes both!!
My too
Where are all these cartoons gone? The ones that bring tears to the eyes?Even after 20 yrs? I pity the kids of today.Seriously.
Don't. They have their treasured cartoons too, just like we did. Twenty years later, they'll look back and get emotional, just like we are. Nostalgia is a powerful feeling.
Check out Over the Garden Wall and Gravity Falls.

Loved this episode, Joe was a ghost, seeking a second chance before he could rest in peace.

Loved it as a kid and now 32 years old I still love it...
I was eight when this aired every morning and dug it and this is my favorite episode
this was the saddest time for the show, a great pilot
I have never cried on this episode, but I do fee emotional. Poor Joe. May he always be remembered.
Yeah, other than the lazy character name- this was very high-end quality writing for what is easily thought of as a mere 'kids' show'.
It resonates with me _still_ , and I've been a fan when it was new in the early 90s. I'm f-ing _38_ now. :P
I’m in my 40s now as a kid I never missed an episode from this cartoon love it back I still love it today
The guy who voiced Joe was Hal Smith who played Otis Campbell from The Andy Griffith Show.
I did not know that. :D
The Turtle is voiced by Alan Young, aka Scrooge McDuck!
I remember this episode, I shed tears at the end. As an adult it brings more meaning as I have a few guardian angels too.
This episode was a masterpiece. Pow. Right in the feels.
This has been rattling around in the back of my head for the past 30 years, and I finally sought it out. I wasn't able to grasp the gravity of it then, but it certainly has an impact now.
My favorite episode, sweet memories from childhood :)
When i heard the voice in the end, i thought "use the force Baloo, use the force"
Looks like Joe trained one more, a true soldier, a true teacher... a true garden angel.
Animated series always have a powerful deep message hidden in them, have more inspiration than these lame reality shows out now, "Free AS A Bird"
Thanos: Reality is often disappointing
It's been over 20 years since I watched these cartoons, and they still get me choked up in all the right ways.
Wow. Thank you so much for posting this video.
I loved tailspin as a kid. Even played the game. Good stuff.
This is a great episode.
This brings back many memories
Such an impactful episode. One that leaves a lasting impression.
*pushes the onions away* No no memes right now, these tears are natural not from you
This brings back so many memories
the Joe spirit was actually helping baloo that's was the case, sad ending though, very sad
How can that be?
It's a very good episode segment, from a more than decent episode. It's an example of both nobleness and positive ghost-fantasy.

Dang Disney...why you always got hit people right in the Feels 😢
Best series!
I miss Alan Young so much.😭😭😭😭 if a Mister Ed movie happens, I wanna play Wilbur Post!
I suddenly remembered my first cartoon so cool so long
Iconic episode
Can't believe Google invented in 1998😮

Is this ending an homage to some movie? Maybe "It's a Wonderful Life"?
I have always thought so. Either way I love them both and still cry every time since I was a kid. :)
SesameFan
My guess would be "A Guy Named Joe" starring Spencer Tracey. 'Cept that movie was told from the dead pilot's perspective.
@@zombiejlt1 It could be from the Camouflage song by Stan Ridgeway. You may be telling true boy but this here is Camouflage and he's been right here since he passed away last night. So now its You may be telling true Baloo but this here is Pilot Joe and he's been right here since he passed away 30 years
@SesameFan
Maybe very distantly, from a heavily abstract angle, psychologically speaking.
20 years
Best scene in the whole show
If I'm not wrong, he said the Sea duck was 20 years old in some episode.
Sorry if unnecessary, but I felt the need to mention it.
@@Mi_Fa_Volare I appreciate that information. :)
My childhood hero❤
Do you know how this ending confused the heck out of me as a teenager
This show had a lot of great episodes but a few like this one stand out.
Turtle sound like Scrooge McDuck from DuckTales.
+Tom Armstrong That's because it's the same actor: Alan Young.
+Robert KC Cornell and he passed away last week sadly, but he lived a long full life up to age 96
+Robert KC Cornell wow that's so cool he was the best
christopher coleman I hope that Alan Young becomes a posthumous Disney Legend!
***** oh i hope so along with the other voice actors who paved the way
Hey What's Scrooge Doing In Talespin
When exactly did Talespin take place? If it was in the 40's, I don't think they had bombers like that 20 years prior. And if it was the 30's, then it's even less likely.
Even as a kid, that didn't make sense to me.
You can kinda tell that Talespin took place in the 1940s ish, you can kinda tell with the "flappers and speakeasy" references they always have.
There's no official timeline, but the general fan consensus is that it takes place sometime in the late 20's.
I always pictured it as happening in a post WWII era, like late 40's, early 50's.
I think it takes place in the 30's because TV is not invented yet and one episode has Baloo tell a WW1 solider who was frozen in ice that the great war ended 20 years ago.
It takes place in its own universe.
