I’m picturing Millard Fillmore saying “the nourishment is palatable”, then immediately face planting in to his bowl of soup
I smashed the like button out of this one
Jesus Chriat loves you. Look at eyewitness testimony of Jesus Christ's death and how they claimed He rose from the dead. We have no photos or videos of George Washington, yet we know he existed because of the written accounts of his life. Same as any historical figure. The eyewitness of Jesus Christ's life and death claimed He rose from the dead. Don't take my word for it. Take theirs. Jesus loves you and wants to have a personal relationship with you. God bless you and have a wonderful day.

@@EyanWashingtonthe written accounts of Jesus are not reliable for any of the divine actions he is claimed to have done. Jesus may have existed, but there’s no proof for his divine nature.
I think my favorite last words are Adam's. The story of Jefferson and Adam's feels like a scripted story at times with how certain things play out. Men with flaws that go into a rivalry for the presidency and would later reconnect with both men dying on not only the same day, but the 50th anniversary of the declaration of independence.
I think another one like that is Roosevelt (teddy) and Taft both men where friends and Allies in there political careers and then had a falling out during teddys third run but made up and became friends near the end of each other’s lives
My favorite was Franklin Pierce
Isn't it possible the date of death is a lie ? It seems too impossible
@@johndoe6260 What? No they where reported to have died then.
Yeah. It's one of those stories that could as well be a Hollywood script but it doesn't have to be because it's real.
A story of Andrew Jackson's death that was totally in character: At his funeral, Jackson's beloved parrot had to be escorted out because he wouldn't stop cussing.
Even after Andrew Jackson died, his parrot carried on his legacy
Just imagine if an American Indian stole Jackson's favorite parrot and used his feathers to make a headdress. Jackson in his mid seventies probably would have led an Indian raid himself to avenge his death.
@@honestone490 I've heard that Jackson's "hatred" for Native Americans is exaggerated. Some say he believed the trail was the best outcome and that they would have been killed by settlers if they stayed
@@Y2KPlatinum I agree I think he held American Indians in the same regard as African Americans. However, he considered American Indians not conducive to a civilized lifestyle worthy of his Hermitage Plantation.
I mean, where do you think he picked it up?
Being people from the world of politics I feel people (on the internet especially) often forget the fact that these names from history aren't just names in a history book, they were real human beings with all the same fears of death that we all have. I think Nixon's last words show that fact so clearly.
"Help."
Oh how scary death can be, probably the biggest reason I’m religious is I fear God’s punishment while also wanting his reward. Inshallah, we are all guided and receive peace and our desires
I'm from Ohio so alot of them are schools aswell lol
@@primetime429 only in Ohio bruh💀
My favorite last words are Augustus’s.
While it is true the last words he said in public were “I found Rome a city of bricks and left it a city of marble.” But his actual last words in private were “Have I played the part well? Then applaud as I exit.” Really hits me in my gut.
Another Roman emperor with awesome last words was Titus, who’s last words were “I have made but one mistake” (we don’t know what it was)
Vespasian’s was also cool. For context, he contracted diarrhea and said “dear me, I think I’m becoming a god.” (In reference to the roman practice of deifying emperors)
You can also add Nero’s “Dead! And so great an artist!” To that list.
@@Longshanks1690 i think his last words actually was, when his praetorian prefect went to help him after he stabbed himself, he said “Too late! This is fidelity!”
Would almost be sad if he wasn’t a sadistic cunt.
The “great artist dies in me!” line seems to be a correction from later christian writers, who understandably, hated him
@@laughsatchungus1461 That line actually comes from Suetonius, not Christians, though I don’t doubt his depiction of Nero helped them tremendously.
But I think when we get down to it, it’s highly unlikely any of these people actually said these things, and are either written by Roman historians based on hearsay or what they believed they would have said.
Julian the Apostate, the last pagan Roman emperor, died in battle during the fourth century, and his last words are reputed to have been, "You have won, Nazarene."
@@laughsatchungus1461 I mean, a lot of accounts of Nero are from, the aristocracy, who didn’t like him.
He was popular with, the general people.
I think a lot of the stuff about him is his enemies using their money to make him look bad (by paying historians and such to write him as a tyrant).
Garfield's death is why TR was so adamant that he would not let doctors dig the bullet out of him. He knew that he was fine and the bullet hadn't done anything.
Are you sure it wasn't so that he could in "typical TR fashion" strut around like a peacock boasting he has a bullet still left in him? Now that sounds more like the egotistical TR we all know and for some reason most historians still love.
Plus he was an experienced hunter too. When he coughed up and saw he wasn't spitting up blood he figured it must not have reached his lung.
The most interesting ones for me are those who were said when it wasn't clear, that he will die (not only because of an attack, but also stuff like strokes or heart attacks). Nixon is pretty normal in that regard, considering it is "Help", which is what most people would say when they realize it and still can. On the other hand there is stuff like from Abe Lincoln, showing how much he loved his wife or Coolidge, who definitely didn't see it coming and just greeted a man doing some work in his house. He (the carpenter) probably never forgot that moment
Grant's last word combined with his cause of death hit me a bit harder than I was comfortable with. Death is truly the great equalizer.
10:20 - My grandfather's last words were a complaint about the fish he was served at the hospital. Fitting considering he had been a professional fisherman in his youth and then later a federal fisheries inspector.
Filmore died eating what he loved... a Good Soup.
Joking aside, Pierce's death might be the saddest. Polk's and G.H.W.Bush's are among my favorite last words. The simple "I love you" really tugs your heartstrings.
In addition, if I remember correctly Thomas R. Marshall said the line ""Death had to take Roosevelt sleeping, for if he had been awake, there would have been a fight.""Death had to take Roosevelt sleeping, for if he had been awake, there would have been a fight."
Would love you to make a series commenting on old interviews with historically significant figures like you mentioned! Would be a great watch for sure
Fun Fact: A lot of people were expecting Teddy to be the Republican nominee in 1920, and he was leaning towards running. His death left a vacuum for quite a while in the party. His stand-in, Leonard Wood, was the leader for the first several ballots until the convention got to a stalemate and they settled on Warren Harding as a “nobody dislikes him” candidate.
Grant and his wife didn't just not go to the play to see their kids. A major reason is that Grant's wife hated the first lady, as Grant's wife had seen her first hand throw tantrums
That is a fact!
Was that before or after lincon's son died?
@@totallynotacommie4767 after, but that's irrelevant, it wasn't the death of his son that made her lose her mind. She was horrible and borderline abusive towards Lincoln before he died.
Pretty sure she had mental issues not properly treated due to the times.
@@omalleycaboose5937
Oh really? i had no idea! I need to research stuff more often instead of being the "Yeah that sounds 'bout right" guy.
@@totallynotacommie4767 I mean I didn't really research, I just last year decided to start listening to president biographies while I stock wallmart shelves and I started with Washington and got to Truman so far. Had to skip some audible didn't have.
It's been a while since Lincoln but I remember some things. I remember Mrs. Lincoln conspired with the White House gardener to defraud the government for money to by herself dresses and Lincoln never noticed because he had no idea how much Fancy clothes cost. He never bought any.
Almost everyone: Talks about their friends, their family, themselves, their country, etc. before they die
Grant: "Water."
SANDY!
“Help”
Mmmmm... good soup.
on long-lived historical figures, Mikhail Gorbachev is still alive aged 90 or 91, 30 years after the end of the USSR, there was a new documentary/interview about him recently.
*Immediately googles Gorbachev* He's still alive? I don't know why but he feels like such a historical figure, I thought he'd have died of old age by now. That's actually fascinating.
@@tzeneth sadly loads of russian men each year die to alcoholism
@@connerwine8257 vodka is considered as viable breakfast drink there, go figure 😂
Watching this video for the first time today. Crazy to see this comment because he actually just died today.
@@LilMissSEC Indeed
Cool thing about Grant’s memoirs was that he was good friends with Mark Twain, and Twain was the one who convinced him/helped him to get them published
2:47 I read somewhere that apparently burying people alive was so common that sometimes they would attach a string inside the coffin that led to a bell outside just in case. If the person woke up, they would then be able to ring the bell using said string.
Not sure if this is actually historically accurate but I know the story is then attached that the person sitting out in the middle of the night waiting for the bell had the "graveyard" shift. Kind of curious if that's the actual origin of the term or something that developed based more on myth than reality (or a completely different etymology)
Hence the term "Saved by the bell"
I love Fire of Learning please watch more of his channel. His food history and country history videos are worth reacting to!
My favorite last words of all time.
"I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country."
- Nathan Hale
Damn straight Nathan Hale.
If you're looking for historical figures to watch, there is one floating around out there, from the 1950's of a very old man, who was in Fords Theater when Lincoln was killed.
Great watch
That's fake lol
@@connerwine8257 and how exactly do you know that?
John Tyler's grandson, Harrison Ruffin Tyler was born in November of 1928 and is still alive but in bad shape.
Since 2012 he's suffered a number of mini-strokes and now has dementia.
I believe he passed earlier this year but was a trooper for sure o7
@@stopshowingmeongoogle1017 If he's dead nowhere on the web can I find that indication.
@@stopshowingmeongoogle1017 He’s not dead. You are thinking of the other longest surviving grandson of John Tyler, Lyon Gardiner Tyler Jr who died last year in 2020. Harrison Ruffin Tyler, as far as we know, is still alive.
@@thesladesterb3vt3co7h thank you for the clarification!
@@stopshowingmeongoogle1017 You’re welcome. :)
17:53 - this video doesn't list last words for Hoover but I found a source saying that they were "He is one of my best friends." Referring to Admiral Lewis Strauss, who had come to visit him. They had known each other since doing humanitarian work together in Belgium during World War I.
Chris is the only person who can turn a 6 minute video into a 22 mintute video 🤣🤣
And we love that about him
@@hayleyf9438 If anything, we end up wishing the videos were longer.
@@professorwhat2704 yup
You reminded me again when you were talking about Grant, but i would like to hear your opinions on Simon Whistler's channel "Biographics" one of these days. He runs several channels but Biographics is specifically about historical individuals. He bas a playlist about U.S. Presidents and i think his videos on Grant and Hoover, in particular, are very well done.
Hell yeah
Jimmy Carter is now our oldest lived president at 97 years and counting. Ronald Reagan, Gerald Ford, and George H.W. Bush surpassed Herbert Hoover at 93 respectively for Reagan and Ford and 94 for Bush.
Carter’s 99 now he’s almost 100 years old
Well he is 100 now
"I am Murder" last words of UK prime minister, Spencer Perceval. Truly inspiring.
If I am not mistaken Garfield's assassin, Charles Guiteau, tried to use the doctor's treatment of the wounds in his defense, essentially "I shot him, they killed him"
Yes, he did.
I believe John Q. Adams was the last of the founding fathers. At 13 he went to France to act as translator for his father who did not speak French whereas John Q spoke something like seven languages. One of them was Russian and Abigail had a fit when she got the letter that her son had been sent off to the savage hinterlands as our first ambassador to St Petersburg at the ripe old age of 14 or 15 because he was our only "official" who spoke Russian.
It was great to hear you share your knowledge of the Presidents. You never let me down with these reaction videos! 👍
The virgin “the food is tasty” vs the Chad “the nourishment is palatable”.
Regarding Nixon and funerals, as another Buckeye fan you might appreciate his eulogy at Woody Hayes's funeral. I remember watching it live as a teenager, and if you haven't seen it you might want to check it out. He delivers the entire eulogy without once looking at notes. It was quite an impressive and personal delivery and one of the very times when we see the "human side" of Nixon.
Apparently, Mike was one of Johnson's bodyguards, and he'd called other secret service agents over the phone. Why he wanted Mike specifically while he was having a heart attack we'll probably never know.
Fun fact: The metal detector used to find the bullet in Garfield was actually used by Alexander Graham Bell because it was his invention at the time.
I think FDR was actually posing for a portrait when he suddenly started complaining of a headache and slumped over.
fire of learning is a very interesting channel actually, they even have a few videos on name origins. if you want history of words and those origins, may I suggest name explain? they explain the names of various things(cities, people names, fictional things, bible related things once, country names and even the fact that some countries are called differently from what everyone calls them like Germany(Deustachland) and Japan(Nippon) )
my history teacher has used this channel for documentaries in class, also enjoyed the video.
Love it. I’ve been hooked on this channel for the last few months. Keep it up! Hope to see you in Kansas some day soon!!
Same!
Teddy Roosevelt: waking up on the middle of the night on January 6th 1919 to see the Grimm reaper in his room
“Finally a worthy opponent our battle will be legendary”
Always been wondering when you’d see these guys, I LOVE this channel myself. Love the historic content!
17:00 I feel kinda similarly. I want to have all possible mental faculties and be actually capable of learning still, even right up against the moment of my death. Of course, keeping the rest of the “machinery” well-maintained will help with that, so…
Just lost my mother on Christmas Eve. Her favorite time of the year by far was Christmas, and she would look at Christmas stuff and listen to Christmas music all year long.
It amazes me that so many of these Presidents, particularly Adams and Jefferson, died on dates that kind of defined them as people. Same thing for my mother.
I'm so sorry about your mother. That has to be really hard for you.
I’m listening to Grant’s memoirs on audible at the moment and it’s quickly becoming one of my favourites.
Theodore Roosevelt's last words are pretty poetic, considering what he wrote in his journal the day he lost his wife and mother.
What did he write?
@@terminallumbago6465 "The light has gone out in my life."
I have an original content suggestion for you that's related to presidential history. I know you don't like dealing with recent presidents, but for the presidents before whatever cutoff you chose, I'd love if you did a video in which you gave and explained your opinions on the best and worst things each president did. I know some of that has come up in things like your presidential tier stream, but it would be really cool to get it in more detail and allow a discussion about both the good and the bad. It would be interesting for us all to come up with positives for presidents we don't like and negatives for presidents we do like rather than going the all or nothing route that society all too frequently seems to take on almost everything.
That's a great idea.
I Concur with this suggestion.
I have the luxury of living just several miles away from Theodore Roosevelt's house, and so when I visited Sagamore Hill, his home, we got to see the very room and bed where he died. Made me feel pretty weird.
Hoover died at 90 years old, but he had less days than John Adams. The record was broken by Reagan.
P.S. Spanish Flu by Extra History would be good one to react
I wish you did Mr Beat’s version.
Fire of Learning is a great channel, definitely need to follow up with them more
Grover Cleveland:”I have tried so hard to do right”
Me:”and got so far but in the end it doesn’t even matter”
19:20 Trumans videos later in life are very informative and interesting especially him reflecting on William Jennings Bryan stuff which kind of illustrates Bryan's legacy and how it shaped politics.
Thomas R. Marshall made that comment about Teddy Roosevelt dying in sleep.
Fire of learning is a great channel! I'd certainly love to see you react to more of his videos!
I remember reading that when William McKinley was shot the X-ray had recently been invented and doctors were offered to use it to assist locating the bullet, however this was declined as it was relatively new and they were unsure of what it might do to the president. I guess it is just one of those what ifs in history.
My favorite of them all "The nourishment is palatable" or "Water".
If you end up watching some of those interviews you described, I'd love to watch your reactions to them!
What I remember most about Richard Nixon dying is the photo from his funeral of the five President and first ladies all sitting in the front row together.
Great video. I very much enjoyed it, certainly puts the human element to these people who seem so far away from the public
Great video!! Love from Sweden
Reagan always has held a special place in my heart. While we may not know his last words, I believe he left us plenty from his time in office. As a child, he seemed to be like a father figure for the nation. For be it when he was consoling the nation after a great national tragedy, or confronting the Soviets with speeches, or telling one of his many stories filled with his quick wit or humor, he had great skill as an orator.
Many years later I was able to chaperone my sons class to visit the Reagan Presidential Library. At the end of the tour, I had a chance to stand at his grave and reflect. It is his place in history that speaks to me the most.
yesterday i watched Reagans speech at taking office. he really seemed like a farther to the nation in that speech.
Recently he started doing history of foods videos and his coffee history video is way more interesting then I thought it was! Highly recommend
Random question. In an alternate timeline. Could Napoleon Bonaparte as the General in charge of the British army in the colonies crush the revolution? Given the fact he was a brilliant person in battle tactics?
that's a big maybe. The Brits already had the better strategists but their disadvantage was that Britain itself was so far away that supplies came in with quite the delay. Need ammo? Well, here's the grain shipment you ordered two months ago, etc. Of course, Napoleon's great losses came when he could neither pillage/ forage nor rely on supply lines. And would the British king allow the pillaging of colonist farms? I don't know. Does it really matter? Likely not. Napoleon would've likely licked the patriots harder where he caught 'em, but would it be enough to compensate for lack of supplies and men? I'm not expert enough to finally answer it and I guess it would be closer - but still a patriot victory. No doubt somewhere somewhat would've happend to again counteract it. As an example, the peerage could lobby for the King to remove that upstart because he's takin all the glory.
So interesting. Even for having no commentary in the video, the knowledge you add is always so interesting.
If I remember correctly, there's a TH-cam video with the recorded conversation of Kennedy and Eisenhower during the Cuban missile crisis. It would make for an interesting reaction.
I’ve been hoping you’d react to this video for so long! It’s always fascinated me!!
Fire of Learning!! One of my favourite channels in learning new things. It will be wonderful if you react more videos of his channel.
i would love to see you do reaction videos to interviews of Old ppl like civil war veterans and other famous people
"Put out that light, James"
Something that is very appropriate of Theodore Roosevelt to say.
There's something about last words that strikes a chord with me... Maybe that's one of the reasons why one of my favorite songs is a literal swan song, the lyrics written by a young guitarist in the latter stages of his terminal illness.
An end cap that defines some people but doesn't for others, a microcosm of words that rings with an unusual tone.
For some, it's oddly poignant... I believe there was a Roman Emperor who jokingly remarked that he was "becoming a god" shortly before his death (a nod to the deification of deceased emperors).
For others, it can be a bit haunting
Others still, it can be appropriately mundane
You gonna tease us like that and not even post the song name?
@@brandonbilyeu5298 The song won't be everyone's cup of tea (it is a metal track), but it's Memento Mori by the band Architects.
The lyrics were written by founding guitarist Tom Searle, before he died from skin cancer at the age of 28 (crazy to think about, since I'll be 28 in a couple months).
@@The_Horse-leafs_Cabbage thank you for posting! Even if it isn't everyone's cup of tea and still might reach some people.
@@brandonbilyeu5298 kinda mad I didn't think about that
Thank you for nudging me on that
Been steamrolling through your content, love history, used to want to be an American history teacher but, life happens while we make plans. Thoroughly enjoy everything you make.
Appreciate that!
I am djiboutian,but i have a lot of interest for American history. I like the way you do.
Bravo
I remember Reagan's death vividly. I was playing on a playground in Eglin AFB and they kept making us stop playing and salute the flag at half mast. Such inconvenience.
Theodore Roosevelt said he felt like his heart or lung was going give out the night before he died and went to bed “said James put the light out” and he was right he died of a pulmonary embolism at 4:00 am the next morning.
I work at a museum in Pueblo, Colorado, where Woodrow Wilson had his first stroke. We're quite proud of that fact.
16:57 I think that is the only time i've heard you agree with woodrow wilson
Great video my favorite last words were Abraham Lincoln it really fascinates me
Nothing better than an new VTH video!
We have a signed copy of Grant's memoirs, it's in really bad shape but it has a note and really cool
Fact for roosevelt: The person who made the "Death had to take Roosevelt sleeping" Was Vice President Thomas Marshal
Speaking of people who lived far longer than expected, there was a guest on the 1950s TV game show "I've Got a Secret" who was the last living witness to the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. He was 5 years old and a neighbour had taken him to the theatre. I believe the episode was filmed in 1956, so he would have been 96 years old.
What's the most living former presidents we've had at one time? We currently have five (Carter, Clinton, Bush 43, Obama, and Trump), and we also had five before Bush 41 passed (Carter, Bush 41, Clinton, Bush 43, and Obama). Is that a lot by historical standards?
five + the sitting president is the record, and I believe it was achieved two or three times, the first being when Lincoln was president. If Carter hangs around for the next one this record will be broken.
I think Fire of Learning did some videos on how one era would view the modern era. For example, Ancient Romans and their view of the modern world.
You should watch what great leaders said as they died and where the great leaders were buried at and what great thinkers said as they died and also what the ancient Roman emperors said before they died it’s interesting
You're right about Theodore Roosevelt, Thomas marshal said death had to take him in his sleep
There is an statement that I feel sums up who teddy was, I forgot where it came from but the person states “If teddy died while he was awake, he would’ve died fighting.”
Millard Fillmore:
“Good soup”.
The virgin "food is tasty" vs the chad "the nourishment is palatable"
20:07 After leaving office LBJ really let himself go. He went back to heavy smoking and drinking which he scaled back as President on the advice of doctors.
The main thing I really want to see is an unbiased, as much as possible, history of Andrew Jackson. The stuff i seem to find on youtube tends to throw him into the modern lens of morals. The man did some outrageous things for the time, such as attacking Spanish Florida and claiming the territory as the US's. I think he tends to be very controversial as a president, could you please shine some more light on him?
Idk what you mean by “modern moral lens” mass murder is bad in every generation including the 19th century
I always thought it was very interesting that not only did Adams and Jefferson both die on the 50th anniversary of the Declaration, and Monroe on the 55th anniversary, but Madison died ONE WEEK BEFORE the 60th anniversary.
However, I have read that Madison's doctors offered to give him medicine to try to prolong his life so that he could die on the 4th too, and he refused.
If true, that calls into question the coincidental nature of the other three's deaths.
John Tyler: takes a sip or brandy "I am going" I hope not sir "perhaps it is best". Pretty badass
I find it interesting how heart failure seems to have occurred earlier in these presidents' lives in the past compared to now where they are living longer.
I think the life of Hoover is understated. Man was born in 1874 and died in 1964 so he sees everything from the rise of electricity and the telephone to the final settling of the west, both world wars, and the first steps into space. On occasion presidents have called upon their still living predecessors for advice in dealing with the crisis of the day but, with no disrespect to Hoover, I can’t even imagine he’d have anything for something like Kennedy dealing with the Cuban missile crisis. By that point he simply didn’t live in the same world as when he left office, let alone when he was born.
In the future it may be helpful to read the quotes in the screen for those with visual impairments. thanks!
It was VP Marshall that said that quote about Teddy
It seems that there is always something good and something bad to remember about each president. I guess when they are concentrating on one aspect of their agenda, something they are not focused on takes on an unintended divergence.
John Tyler is also the only president that didn’t have his death recognized in Washington. After his presidency, he was later elected as a congressman within the Confederate House of Representatives, but died before their first session was held. He was buried in a grand funeral on the orders of Jefferson Davis (despite Tyler’s request for a small service) with a confederate flag draped over his coffin.
Use your arrow keys to rewind or fast forward 5 seconds. Don't sit there trying to click on the slide bar..
Fire of learning is great! I recommend the his videos on what if _____ historical figures from ____ time period came to the modern world. There long but good.
It might be only audio, instead of video, but I believe there is a recorded interview with a man who was brought over on the last slave ship, the Cloetilde I think the ship was called
I honestly saw that video and was like man vlogging through history should react to this and here we go 😂
Adams, Jefferson and Monroe all diyng on July 4th is pretty fascinating.
