When I was in middle school and high school I used to watch his shows and learn so much about the world that school could never teach me. I used to sit there and get a little depressed wondering as just a poor Burmese immigrant, if I would ever able to travel to all these places one day too. Years later, I’ve been very lucky to be able to travel to 23 countries now. This summer I went to the restaurant he and Obama ate at in Hanoi and I started crying tears of joy. It was one of those rare moments in life where I felt like “I made it.” I dreamed of moments like that and I’m finally traveling to beautiful places and trying so many delicious foods and meeting so many genuinely nice people. I’m so thankful for him for showing us the world and connecting us to different cultures through food. I’m sure there are millions of other travelers who were inspired by this great man. I hope he finally found his peace.
Not only thoughtful and well-spoken but outspoken and unapologetically honest when speaking his mind. Anthony Bourdain. The polar opposite of POTUS. The embodiment of what it means to be a citizen of the world. An international treasure.
And that was where he wanted to visit the most. Growing up the book "heart of darkness" was hos favorite book in the world. About a westerners trip deep.into Africa. He said he looked for to visiting various countries in Africa more than another place
“Keep ‘em guessing til it’s too late” lol I love it. Anthony seems like he was a great person, intelligent, compassionate, talented and funny. I feel like the world is one good person short now. Depression is a scary thing.. Rest In Peace
What a huge loss. I was familiar with him speaking up for restaurant workers, and admired how he acclimated to so many cultures with such ease. I never realized how thoughtful a person he was until Me Too. He was definitely on the right side of history. It's always the good ones.😢
Suby Gurl its unfortunate thats its the good ones, the people with empathy and compassion, that tend to kill themselves. I dont think its a coincidence that suicide rates have been rising.
“Often the brightest souls are the most lonely.” I’ve been a fan of Anthony Bourdain for years. His battle was something he never hid. A truly amazing soul that we should never stop learning from. Rest easy Anthony.❤️🤘
He probably would have killed himself before now if not for that little girl. Maybe get educated about depression. My dad went out the same way, when I was 15, and I don't hold a grudge against him because I always struggled with depression too (before that happened even) so I understand it's a tremendously hard thing.
I miss this man. He took me on so many journeys that I would never do in my lifetime... Places I would never see, foods I would never taste. But it was a great journey... I wish we could of had many many more years of this. No one can ever replace him... Love this guy honestly... RIP hope you found whatever peace it was that you were looking for.... God Bless...
I wish depression didn't exist. It has taken too many good people, and I'm afraid it will continue to claim more lives. But it's a privilege to know someone like Anthony existed. Someone who lived so much, it drives you crazy realizing he's not alive anymore. May you be at peace, Anthony. You deserve it.
We need to improve the overall morale of our individual environments to truly combat depression. Raise up the spirits of the local communities. Promote local businesses, volunteer, join a club, adopt a rescued pet, donate to charity... So many examples; but yet all that can seem so daunting. (David Bowie's 'pressure' comes to mind.) With such small pockets of people that are able to help,(amazing to even have "extra" time) to be so civically engaged. And then you have the "other" types of people, that basically add to the "stuff" you should all warn your children to stay away from! The dark, disturbing, & harmful things that lurk seemingly everywhere, that suck good people toward the abyss of many agonies. I think depression stems from mostly external influence; negative exposures combined with overbearing weight of sadnesses & unresolve. As for Mr. Anthony Bourdain I have no guesses as to why he did what he did. It breaks many hearts all the same. I hope he is in a better place.
Be not afraid, for it will take more lives, not because it does on its own, but because we allow it, often blaming the person, projecting our own selfishness to rationalize away that we could have made the difference but didn't.
The impact of his passing has had widespread and intense impressions on my industry as a Traveling Bartender. Many in the hospitality industry have been influenced by his work and his spirit. He will forever be in the halls of hero's for many of us. May we all aspire to carry on his fight for equality and hold that adventurous and enthusiasm in our actions and our hearts. These next words pale to express the ideal fully but must be said. Thank you Anthony!
Robin Williams, Chester Bennigton, Anthony Bourdain, these are only 3 names of the many many people who were perfect on the surface, they bluffed with ease, hid their pain so well and made us blv that nothing was wrong all was right with the world but it wasn't so, and we somehow collectively failed and still fail every time someone gives up on themselves
Jaq Tweedie it's a collective thing, not myself or any other person but all of us a community and culture, if we aren't able to make the good ones stay, what are we doing? Are we collectively ignoring signs? Should we be more welcoming of people who want to share or just want an ear to talk to? I am just saying, we should all keep an eye out for each other may be just that much will help...
May their souls rest in peace. Depression is the devil playing mind games.They chose to believe the lies the devil told them that life is not worth living, that their loved ones are better off without them. If only they just believed how truly loved and admired they were, and how much they are wanted around they might still be here!!!!
AlexMcNugget-Ravioli I recently bought a Kate Spade slippers and wondered to myself why someone so obviously talented would not believe she is loved and admired and wanted? Depression is truly an evil disease.
Depression is a horrible disease and, unfortunately, a very intimate and private one. I've been battling it daily for over a decade and still, there's not a lot of people I feel I can trust with this part of my life. The truth is, until we collectively get out of our comfort zones and talk openly about mental health - without stigma or prejudice - we'll keep seeing more and more tragic cases like Mr. Bourdain's. May he rest in peace...
Beautiful soul. You never know the struggles people have, especially ones they have wit themselves. Such a tremendous loss not only to those he inspired, but to everyone he met around the world. Be at peace Anthony.
LOVE HIM!! So much wisdom in one helluva man. His appreciation and sympathy for unknown cultures will be hard for anyone to compare. A true inspiration. RIP Tony. You will be missed forever!
I put off watching this for a bit...I knew it would make me cry ...inspiring and uplifting and so enjoyable to see two intelligent people having an intelligent conversation...glad I was able to get to it
Gacha Studio Flythatbird2 Me too, I'm going to miss him and his humor and watching his shows.. It was gut wrenching for me as well..Never saw that coming at all !!!💔💯
Same here. Listening to him mention Asia, I feel like wow. He was so turned outward, putting the spotlight on friends and others or sharing his insights on the world with the world, but we never caught on to his struggle. He was more sensitive and pained than the words let on. Sometimes we have to listen with eyes ears and gut.
"Curiosity is a virtue". Thank you so much, Anthony Bourdain. And as a woman I will always be thankful for you questioning your perspective regarding the abuse of women and reflecting so openly on female friends not confiding in you. That is so rare and really huge for every woman watching this, especially female abuse survivors. And I know you aren't here any longer, but thank so so much!
It pains me so much because he was so a part of the current world's climate and had such beautiful ideas and had such a beautiful soul. The good side lost a a great soldier. Unfortunately that is a possible outcome for knowing the darkness in this world. I just wish he stayed and kept fighting with us and for himself. I hate that we lost such an amazing human being.
What a sad loss for this world. Anthony Bourdain, you were a shining example for the rest of us with your thoughtful explorations of the world, your empathy, gratitude and humility, your kindness, and your zest for life. Our world is a darker place without you in it.
RIP Tony. You've shared so much and opened so many eyes, hearts, and stomachs to how big and how small this world we have is. Thank you, you are so missed.
He seemed like such a kind person. As someone who has seen anxiety up close and has had suicidal thoughts, it just breaks my heart to imagine the torture he endured, while making such an amazing show.
Without having discovered this man, and his shows, I doubt I would have ever had the guts to start working in the food industry. Let alone trying to become and stand out chef. Much love dude. R.I.P.
I miss him so much. The world is a bit dimmer without him. Who would've thought someone could have the effect he had from multiple travel shows. We could really use him right now. Rest in peace.
The food we eat is for but a moment and the memories are for ever. For the moments of joy you spread in the world using food as your medium was an art of its own. Keep cooking up there.
He’s right I live in Florida and I met my now husband who’s from South Africa . The people there are the most amazing and Humble people . Some parts look like south Miami Beach , you be surprise how well things are when you leave the US and travel
May I live a life worthy enough to share a table on the edge of heaven and enjoy a cold one with Anthony Bourdain, Tupac Shakur, and Richard Feynman. RIP brother.
The definition of raw, honest, and healthy masculinity without any of the hypermasculine, frat-boy, toxic shit. Maybe at one point in his life (during the early days described in Kitchen Confidential), but he has really become a phenomenal role model for men and people in general. I just wish mental health didn't get the best of him. RIP Tony.
This guy made me change my view on food. I'll never reach his level of being able to eat every thing and anything, but the respect I have for the stories told through food is on a whole other level. I still wonder what he'd think of my cooking, and I will mourn him not as an Icon but as the teacher, cook and storyteller he was.
... I'm 3 mins in to the video and I feel so conflicted. One part of me thinks "why are you showing me this guy who's gone, now? It's painful" - but then again I do know why: to honor him and see his perspective/brilliance in his own right. I think "wow it's so great to see Anthony again!" and at the same time, sadness because he's no longer here. I watched him for years on the travel channel - it was such a random thing to me, but I was hooked. Now I'll never get to meet him... Rest in peace, Anthony. Thank you for your work.
I’m still shocked to discover how much I really loved him.. I see these shows when he makes an entrance and it shakes me up. A personality is a powerful thing.
Thank you, Trevor, for getting this on TH-cam. I missed it. I thought I watched everything but this somehow, slipped through. I have admired this man, Anthony Bourdain, forever, it seems, before he went to “parts unknown”. It was like I had met him before, the first time I watched a show with him. I am saddened, as I am sure many other admirers are, about his suicide. The people who feel the most, those who have the most passion and emotion, those that love the deepest, be it people or their craft, often times are the ones that lose hope in humanity’s failures. Both you and I know that you are not gone, no-one ever is, but it is sad that the vessel you inhabited has passed. My heart hurts. See you around, Anthony Bourdain.
Yes, Rest In Peace. I watched Mr Bourdain’s show Parts Unknown because of my son who recognizes what I might like but don’t know about. So I’ve watched episodes with him and learned many things about the state of countries and the people who live in them. Some from these shows in which Mr Bourdain is a respectful participant/observer and much from my son, also respectful and knowledgeable. So Mr Bourdain touched the lives of people who watched these shows in ways he might not have known. I saw he could be critical of himself in the programs, mostly hidden by a manner that suggested confidence. He had already tragically died before I watched any of his shows, so I was always aware of that as I watched him, as though I would see traces of an explanation, even knowing that that will not be possible to find.
It is not a secret that food is a link beetween people, culture and civilizations. Sharing food and appreciating it is the first and best way to welcome someone, to make contact and to learn about cultures and people. :)
"Travel is lethal to prejudice" ... that is a POWERFUL statement!! If you haven't traveled and experienced how someone else lives then you are missing out ... its life-changing
Miss you Tony. Your spirit lives on in the memory of your fans, whom you touched in a positive, enlightened way. Spirit lives on, but may your soul rest, finally, in the cloud of ephemera that hovers above our universe.
Rest In Peace brother. He opened so many eyes to the marvels of countless cultures. Anthony exemplifies the beauty of globalization in a time when we are becoming more and more isolated. His legacy will live on!
His suicide has affected me much more than I ever thought possible. I'm angry, sad, and so many more conflicted feelings. Miss him TERRIBLY! The world lost someone who made a positive difference.
He became a gift to all of us in what he was doing and who he was...a flawed and scarred person...as we all are...giving us so much and teaching us so much about the world. A way for all of us to see the world and experience the world...ans LEARN about what is outside of our window...our town...our country. Why did he not see how much he mattered and the good he was doing...maybe that just is not enough in the end. This is coming from a Social Studies teacher who literally quoted Anthony Bourdain to his students numerous times. As he said...don't be a tourist...be a traveler...get out and see and experience the world...even if it's just your oqn corner of it. Love you Tony...crusty bastard...
Im so sad watching this. Miss him so much😭 no one can live up to your level of class, intelligence, experience. He will forever be the legend in food world.
When I was in middle school and high school I used to watch his shows and learn so much about the world that school could never teach me.
I used to sit there and get a little depressed wondering as just a poor Burmese immigrant, if I would ever able to travel to all these places one day too.
Years later, I’ve been very lucky to be able to travel to 23 countries now. This summer I went to the restaurant he and Obama ate at in Hanoi and I started crying tears of joy. It was one of those rare moments in life where I felt like “I made it.”
I dreamed of moments like that and I’m finally traveling to beautiful places and trying so many delicious foods and meeting so many genuinely nice people.
I’m so thankful for him for showing us the world and connecting us to different cultures through food.
I’m sure there are millions of other travelers who were inspired by this great man.
I hope he finally found his peace.
Thank you for sharing. You are a beautiful soul.
Well said.
Beautifully said... Anthony Bourdain was special indeed. I look to go to one of the places he's been and just reflect on him. May he RIP
Beautiful, my friend! Life is a journey, and a great meal is the first to start your journey!
"The history of the world is on your plate" This guy was a genius and he's sadly missed
Yankee Drummer I caught that too! Wow, pretty effing profound! One in a million..
A really great guy. A genius? Nothing like it
Throwing around the word genius because that was the first word that popped into your brain and you're too lazy to bother thinking a little harder...
Not only thoughtful and well-spoken but outspoken and unapologetically honest when speaking his mind. Anthony Bourdain. The polar opposite of POTUS. The embodiment of what it means to be a citizen of the world. An international treasure.
Can’t agree more
You said that very well...
RIP Anthony. I am a Nigerian and I appreciate the fact that you thought highly of my country and Africa as a whole. RIP
And that was where he wanted to visit the most. Growing up the book "heart of darkness" was hos favorite book in the world. About a westerners trip deep.into Africa. He said he looked for to visiting various countries in Africa more than another place
R.I.P. dude. One of my favorite TV show host ever. He actually inspired me to get out of my comfort zone and explore the world.
Kodjo Dagba expired? This isn’t the time for food jokes bro.
if you are exploring the world with a bunch of money in your pocket then you haven't left your comfort zone yet
Inspired
THETHICKONE06 Thx.
Chris Gravenhorst Sorry, I meant to say inspired. I corrected it.
“Keep ‘em guessing til it’s too late” lol I love it.
Anthony seems like he was a great person, intelligent, compassionate, talented and funny. I feel like the world is one good person short now. Depression is a scary thing..
Rest In Peace
Danielle Eriksson absolutely all of that. yes.
You really fell for it. That he was depressed???
420Megaskunk
...and so???
Well you should have paid them then
Probably murdered
What a huge loss. I was familiar with him speaking up for restaurant workers, and admired how he acclimated to so many cultures with such ease. I never realized how thoughtful a person he was until Me Too. He was definitely on the right side of history. It's always the good ones.😢
Suby Gurl its unfortunate thats its the good ones, the people with empathy and compassion, that tend to kill themselves.
I dont think its a coincidence that suicide rates have been rising.
he had clinical depression, it got to him
Yea,people like Chester, Bourdain and Walker are gone. But we still have Mcconnal, Trump and Kim Jon Un. The world is insanely cruel and unfair.
“Often the brightest souls are the most lonely.” I’ve been a fan of Anthony Bourdain for years. His battle was something he never hid. A truly amazing soul that we should never stop learning from. Rest easy Anthony.❤️🤘
Rest in Peace Mr. Bourdain. The world will miss good men like you
Ben Wasserman he left his 11 year old. And wasn't a very outstanding father sadly.
If there is an afterlife, their food just got awesome. RIP Anthony :(
He probably would have killed himself before now if not for that little girl. Maybe get educated about depression. My dad went out the same way, when I was 15, and I don't hold a grudge against him because I always struggled with depression too (before that happened even) so I understand it's a tremendously hard thing.
Suicide sometimes it's just unavoidable for some people. A troubled mind can't always be worked around, don't judge a man that you did not know
Dylan Bratisax Ever think the depression played a role in that? It's hard to keep close relationships when your head is all fucked up.
I miss this man. He took me on so many journeys that I would never do in my lifetime... Places I would never see, foods I would never taste. But it was a great journey... I wish we could of had many many more years of this. No one can ever replace him... Love this guy honestly... RIP hope you found whatever peace it was that you were looking for.... God Bless...
Travel is lethal to prejudice...and the antidote to ignorance🕯

My heart sinks when I think about him ....... Why??? ......I wish I there to help him in any way I could ...... RIP
What a pleasant surprise! Thanks for posting! Missing him every Sunday night forever. This is a great clip that captures why we love him so much!
Marlene Green i miss him too that’s why i came here.

He was murdered and framed for suicide
he inspired me to not judge a people until you taste their plate and struggles. missed him. thanks for the show on lagos
RIP Anthony
News of his death shocked me back to the reality of how short life is and how truly destructive depression is. Rest in peace Anthony Bourdain.
ziljin happy he’s dead lol. If you can’t use chop sticks, you’re a dumbass? What a toxic mindset.. no wonder he’s 6 feet under #h-addict
You are an IDIOT...if you do not know what the F you are talking about then do not comment. Translation...shut the fuck up.
@@Willyk200921 you must really suck at using chopsticks! Sucks to be u.
Beautiful soul. You never know the struggles people have, especially ones they have wit themselves. Such a tremendous loss not only to those he inspired, but to everyone he met around the world. Be at peace Anthony.
RIP Tony, you changed how I saw the world, and I am forever grateful. Rest well buddy.
Such an articulate man, I love hearing him speak. May he be resting in peace and free of all the torment that he experienced.
Such a great interview. Rest in peace Anthony.
LOVE HIM!! So much wisdom in one helluva man. His appreciation and sympathy for unknown cultures will be hard for anyone to compare. A true inspiration. RIP Tony. You will be missed forever!
May he Rest in Peace.
Mike Flores May he Rest In Peace and join the fallen who have risen to the stars.

I put off watching this for a bit...I knew it would make me cry ...inspiring and uplifting and so enjoyable to see two intelligent people having an intelligent conversation...glad I was able to get to it
I miss this man like I miss an old friend, a kindred spirit. Someone whose words and journies I drew energy from ❤️
He was such a treasure. This death was a kick in the gut for me.
Gacha Studio Flythatbird2 Me too, I'm going to miss him and his humor and watching his shows.. It was gut wrenching for me as well..Never saw that coming at all !!!💔💯
I don't believe it happened..can't be his truth..😭
I still can’t understand
Same here. Listening to him mention Asia, I feel like wow. He was so turned outward, putting the spotlight on friends and others or sharing his insights on the world with the world, but we never caught on to his struggle. He was more sensitive and pained than the words let on. Sometimes we have to listen with eyes ears and gut.
“I think curiosity is a virtue.” Here’s to always being curious! 💞
RIP Anthony! One of the greatest person on TV who gave voice to people through their food.
"Travel is lethal to prejudice"...love this..RIP Anthony I miss your shows and your incredible culinary experiences
2 of the most educated people I admire having a conversation. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ They needed a drink and some food to make this perfect.
I just finished reading Kitchen Confidential yesterday. I hope he has peace now.
"Curiosity is a virtue". Thank you so much, Anthony Bourdain.
And as a woman I will always be thankful for you questioning your perspective regarding the abuse of women and reflecting so openly on female friends not confiding in you. That is so rare and really huge for every woman watching this, especially female abuse survivors.
And I know you aren't here any longer, but thank so so much!
Mr Anthony was an amazing human beings, you could feel his energy through your screen, he lives a great life.
He wrote (spoke?) poetry about food. It is still hard to believe we won't see him again. He will be missed dearly.
Thanks for reposting this. He seemed like a very cool and passionate man. Real. He will be missed.
It pains me so much because he was so a part of the current world's climate and had such beautiful ideas and had such a beautiful soul. The good side lost a a great soldier. Unfortunately that is a possible outcome for knowing the darkness in this world. I just wish he stayed and kept fighting with us and for himself. I hate that we lost such an amazing human being.
He aged 10 + years in the space of 4. A lot must've been weighing on him. RIP.
What a sad loss for this world. Anthony Bourdain, you were a shining example for the rest of us with your thoughtful explorations of the world, your empathy, gratitude and humility, your kindness, and your zest for life. Our world is a darker place without you in it.
Damn I still cry hearing him speak and watching him. I miss you Ant!
RIP Tony. You've shared so much and opened so many eyes, hearts, and stomachs to how big and how small this world we have is. Thank you, you are so missed.
He seemed like such a kind person. As someone who has seen anxiety up close and has had suicidal thoughts, it just breaks my heart to imagine the torture he endured, while making such an amazing show.
My two most favourite celebrities in one frame...still can't believe he is not with us anymore!!!!
You were loved!!!! Rest In Peace 💖🙏🏽
I wanted to cry seeing this. He was one of the most important influences in my cooking world.
"our body is not a temple, it' an amusement park Enjoy the ride" Anthony Bourdain
RIP thank u chef
Without having discovered this man, and his shows, I doubt I would have ever had the guts to start working in the food industry. Let alone trying to become and stand out chef.
Much love dude. R.I.P.
Rip sir, this is the first thing i have ever heard from him and he seems a good man. He spoke so well of my Country Nigeria.
RIP, the world needs more like you. I miss you. You gave us so much, still can't believe you're gone.
Yes, he is so missed. I relate to so much of what he says. RIP
I miss him so much. The world is a bit dimmer without him. Who would've thought someone could have the effect he had from multiple travel shows. We could really use him right now. Rest in peace.
@Social Network you should be him for Halloween. Far more interesting than a TH-cam troll.
@Social Network lol.
"The history of the world is on your plate"
Those words really spoke to me just now
The food we eat is for but a moment and the memories are for ever. For the moments of joy you spread in the world using food as your medium was an art of its own. Keep cooking up there.
He’s right I live in Florida and I met my now husband who’s from South Africa . The people there are the most amazing and Humble people . Some parts look like south Miami Beach , you be surprise how well things are when you leave the US and travel

Such a genuine and insightful interview. Love you Tony!
Heartbroken and Grateful all at once. Thank you Mr. Bourdain for bringing the wold and its people closer.
This guy ignited my passion for food, culture and life.
You can only have respect for this Guy . Honest and straight forward man💪🏼
RIP, you have positively Influenced so many
... I'm 3 mins in to the video and I feel so conflicted. One part of me thinks "why are you showing me this guy who's gone, now? It's painful" - but then again I do know why: to honor him and see his perspective/brilliance in his own right. I think "wow it's so great to see Anthony again!" and at the same time, sadness because he's no longer here.

God damn... this opened the wound.
I'm crying... I miss this guy!
He inspired me so much. I just got back from my first solo trip and used his advice in my travels. Live like the locals. RIP
RIP Anthony Bourdain
I’m still shocked to discover how much I really loved him.. I see these shows when he makes an entrance and it shakes me up. A personality is a powerful thing.
RIP to one of the most beloved people on the planet. Anthony, you will be missed.
Thank you, Trevor, for getting this on TH-cam. I missed it. I thought I watched everything but this somehow, slipped through.
I have admired this man, Anthony Bourdain, forever, it seems, before he went to “parts unknown”. It was like I had met him before, the first time I watched a show with him. I am saddened, as I am sure many other admirers are, about his suicide. The people who feel the most, those who have the most passion and emotion, those that love the deepest, be it people or their craft, often times are the ones that lose hope in humanity’s failures. Both you and I know that you are not gone, no-one ever is, but it is sad that the vessel you inhabited has passed. My heart hurts. See you around, Anthony Bourdain.
Wow... you can really tell that those “me too moments” were really weighing on his conscience. I feel so bad for him.
I love that icon! He brought civility to a hellish week on Sunday nights and I still hum to his opening tune.
The travel shows would never be the same. R.I.P Sir
Yes, Rest In Peace.
I watched Mr Bourdain’s show Parts Unknown because of my son who recognizes what I might like but don’t know about. So I’ve watched episodes with him and learned many things about the state of countries and the people who live in them. Some from these shows in which Mr Bourdain is a respectful participant/observer and much from my son, also respectful and knowledgeable. So Mr Bourdain touched the lives of people who watched these shows in ways he might not have known. I saw he could be critical of himself in the programs, mostly hidden by a manner that suggested confidence. He had already tragically died before I watched any of his shows, so I was always aware of that as I watched him, as though I would see traces of an explanation, even knowing that that will not be possible to find.
Never take life for granted.
That's a great way to put it.
We saw and thank you Mr.Bourdain.
It is not a secret that food is a link beetween people, culture and civilizations. Sharing food and appreciating it is the first and best way to welcome someone, to make contact and to learn about cultures and people. :)
"Travel is lethal to prejudice" ... that is a POWERFUL statement!! If you haven't traveled and experienced how someone else lives then you are missing out ... its life-changing
Rest in perfect peace Anthony. Thank you for contribution to man kind.
This is a dream episode for me. Two of my favourites sharing screen❤️❤️❤️❤️
For a second, I thought he came back from the dead to do an interview.
You doubt his power to do so? He just chooses not to--we have to earn him back.
like a Mandela Effect? not this time!
Me too. I'm sad now
That would’ve been awesome
Veronica Turtle Heart. I was so confused ...and not gonna lie, that thought kinda crossed my mind
I'm going to miss this guy, he's a humble, open minded , great guy. I've grown up enjoying your shows. Thanks for being you
Such a shame to have lost him so early. I hope the food is up to snuff wherever he is now. Rest in peace!
RIP Tony. Thanks for caring so much and making the world better. You’re missed. I hope you’re at peace.
A true inspiration, rest in peace Tony
Miss you Tony. Your spirit lives on in the memory of your fans, whom you touched in a positive, enlightened way. Spirit lives on, but may your soul rest, finally, in the cloud of ephemera that hovers above our universe.
This was an emotionally conflicting interview, but thank you so much for uploading it.
Rest In Peace brother. He opened so many eyes to the marvels of countless cultures. Anthony exemplifies the beauty of globalization in a time when we are becoming more and more isolated. His legacy will live on!
His suicide has affected me much more than I ever thought possible. I'm angry, sad, and so many more conflicted feelings. Miss him TERRIBLY! The world lost someone who made a positive difference.
He became a gift to all of us in what he was doing and who he was...a flawed and scarred person...as we all are...giving us so much and teaching us so much about the world. A way for all of us to see the world and experience the world...ans LEARN about what is outside of our window...our town...our country. Why did he not see how much he mattered and the good he was doing...maybe that just is not enough in the end. This is coming from a Social Studies teacher who literally quoted Anthony Bourdain to his students numerous times. As he said...don't be a tourist...be a traveler...get out and see and experience the world...even if it's just your oqn corner of it. Love you Tony...crusty bastard...
From the interview I gather he is a good man, especially to women😊👍.rip
shiny dev - was
itsmepuja you are right😊, but look at it this way. His soul might still be around in heaven, or reborn n he is still good to women n everyone now too😀
May Is Mental Health Awareness Month. RIP Anthony. You Brought Joy To Many.
God damn I miss this dude
What a genuine person. Such a great loss.
Bourdain was a really cool and inspiring guy.
Im so sad watching this. Miss him so much😭 no one can live up to your level of class, intelligence, experience. He will forever be the legend in food world.
"239 pounds, apparently" - lmao.
Who else is struggling between laughing (at his jokes/wit/intelligence) and tearing up (that he's gone)?
I miss you Anthony, you spoke to my heart, my mind and my stomach.
