      Hammerschlägen M my comments are meant to insult people with no soul. With that being said anyone who can pick on someone who is deceased can going on through life knowing that they are headed nowhere because people who troll are bored people pathetic people with no heart and no comen sense. I say to anyone who picks on deceased people are worthless and are pathetic.

      I think he always felt, there would be a miracle fix for his problem right around the corner. It is what kept his mind, focussed on a future, he was hoping for. We don't even have it now but AI is getting better every day, so it is a matter of " time and money" for this problem to be solved. Still, not in the corner for these patients. We do face transplants.....huge, but no repair of the spinal cord.

I'm a HUGE Superman fan and Chris Reeve will always be the best but I really feel Henry is the only other Superman that can carry on from Chris. I'm not talking about the acting at all, it's almost like Henry is Chris Reeve, if that makes sense, lol.. Its just a natural fit. He even looks like Chris! I saw an amazing picture earlier that someone had made, and it was half of Henry's head and half Chris's head, it matched up perfectly. :-)

      I mean this with no disrespect, I say "shell" as a physical attribute and not anything to do with kind, good natured person he was.
      He did however share a strength with the character he played, his unbreakable spirit.

    He was Superman to me. Whenever I jumped off the couch reenacting that epic Niagara Falls rescue, I imagined I was him. A walking paragon of strength, honor and virtue. Doing good for the sake of good. It's ironic how after his accident you got to know how much of that essence already resided in him. Yes he had personal investment in his research but he fought for everyone in a wheelchair and faced the same adversities they did regardless of his wealth and celebrity. He was Superman to me, the second father figure in my life and the person I wanted to be. And he still is. RIP Chris; I hope you're flying on your own again up there because DAMNIT you earned those wings.

      He didn't lose his 'beauty, charisma, talent," etc......being physically disabled didn't change those things. And he always had the love of his family and friends. As he said himself in interviews, he still had plenty to live for even after his tragic accident.

    • @mariabrch8760
      @mariabrch8760 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@karldunnegan2689 In order to avoid any probable misunderstandings, because maybe i didn't make myself clear...
      Of course, i agree with you, it's non-negotiable that Mr Reeve didn't lose any of his qualities, talents, or charismas due to his terrible accident.
      That's an undeniable fact.
      Through my comment, i just pointed out how one's life can be turned so dramatically upside down within one day, that everything you had taken for granted in your life like health or beauty, now is completely altered,deformed, or being constantly at stake.
      That's unquestionable i believe in all harsh accidents (like Schumacher's case also), and it could happen to everyone.
      Undeniably, inner beauty, personality,gifts are unchangeable no matter what happens...
      Besides Reeve's constant work after his accident to aware the public on spinal cord injuries and the importance of finding stem cells to improve patient's quality of life, and also his quest for raising money in order to create a Foundation working for that purpose & leaving a legacy even nowadays, proves that he was much more than a talented and handsome man!

    You are still an inspirational today even 13 years after your passing. Currently watching Superman 1 with my 3 year old son who is obsessed with Superman and Superheroes. Watching in your honour. What a fantastic man you were and are. You are missed Christopher truly. Thank you so much for everything you did and for your continued fight to bring the world to acknowledge and continue evolving in Spinal research. Miss you Mr Superman. Thank you for the memories and gracing the world with your presence. R.I.P a legend.
