My Dad took his own life in 2009, and the passing of Gary Speed really hit me. I feel for the 2 boys and his family in general. Suicide of a loved one is like a nuclear weapon going off in your life.
You can have all the luxuries you ever yearned for, But unless you are of sound mind, you will struggle to contain the emotions that run through your mind, Depression can, and will destroy the very best of us.😢.RIP Gary,
Sadly I know a few similar suicides inside loving families with young children, for the vast majority of us its not in our mind but for a few it makes sense...so bloody sad 😢
I’ll never forget the shock I felt learning of Gary’s passing. From someone who suffers from depression, I understand how powerful the mind is. Rest easy Gary ❤
Unbelievable player what I seen of him at Newcastle he’d be a 70 million pound player today I can’t ever recall him missing a game and never was subbed off But always had a feeling he wasn’t happy in life but footballers are only human no matter the money or fame RIP GARY SPEED and thanks for the memories 👏👏👏
Feel you, brother. My best friend did the same.... it's like part of me is dead since. All those shared memories and time spent in each other's company, having someone around that knew me so well. I feel like my foundations have been undermined. Hopefully, we will see them again on the other side
God bless Gary he was an inspiration for Leeds saw him play many times and score many great goals an absolute shock his life ended this way rip Gary speed
Rest in peace, Gary. No need to worry now. I've struggled with demons in my life, too. It's almost too much sometimes. Pity about the gaffe in this film about the Romania penalty, which poor Paul Bodin missed, and the annoying A1 voice. You're a true Welsh legend, mate and we could do with you now. Bless you. Rest easy.
I could not help reading your comment. You mentioned struggling with your demons. My friend mentioned fighting against her demons but she did not go into it much.
Met him at golf club in Portugal had pic taken most generous person I’d met had the time to chat. Sad day when he died my picture will stay with me forever
As someone who works in suicide prevention - particularly among young men, I can't express enough to everyone who has commented here with their own experiences just how heartwarming it is to see so many people really understanding that depression doesn't discriminate. The message really is starting to get though and that's such an encouraging thing, even in the face of every tragedy. Every story is different and nobody can judge. I have no doubt that all are resting peacefully 🥺
Absolutely tragic. No other words will do. I have a family member who suffers terribly with depression and I worry all the time . RIP to a football legend. MOT
The point of this was the letter which you never read out properly. He says I'm going to go to sleep now and hope I never wake up , not hope I feel better when I wake up ? Just thought would I point that out because that's the truth 👍
I had a very strange feeling of déjà vu when i heard thr terrible news of his passing. Like i heard it while waking up , on the radio and that i thought it happened 2 or 3 weeks earlier . I didn't feel shocked at all . Weird . Very sad and very missed .
This AI voice over and script is awful and completely at odds with the subject matter. Gary Speed deserved better than this cobbled together clickbait.
Gary Speed did not score the Penalty in 1990 at Cardiff Arms Park v Romania. No one did. Paul Boden took it and missed. Wales lost. Romania went to Italy World Cup 1990.
@easygoingbloke, And David O'Leary took the penalty that knocked out Romania for Jack Charlton's team to move on. Jack ex- Leeds Captain and world cup winner.
You can have all the money in the world but it doesn't always make you happy.especialy if you have demons and cronick depression.i lost a mate to suicide he hung himself didn't show no signs its been 3years now the pain is a bit better now but I will never get over it .
What has been the point of this pointless story of Gary Speed . . . Yet another cheap and tacky earner for whoever with no new information on Gary’s death and all information could have been gathered from any football publication. You continue to load pointless football stories on this medium with minimal research and zero new facts.
In deep affect and feeling of hopelessness he probably chose to end his life. An extremely tragic and devastating death of a man in his early fourties. I hope I don't bring out feelings of showing disrespect in any way or form towards Gary Speed as I put forward that I believe that there's circumstantial evidence that Gary Speed was a terribly unlucky victim of sexual abuse from a pedophile football youth coach at a very early point in his career. As far as I am aware It has been well established that Speed, early on, was among other young, upcoming footballers who were exposed to a pedophile football youth coach. From reading a lot of unpleasant background stuff about this years ago , I wouldn't be surprised if what happened prior to his death was that Gary Speed chose to keep a horrible secret about being a victim of sexual abuse, and if so ultimately his scars from having experienced sexual abuse could easily have been the underlying tricker of suicide after an argument with his wife; an argument which in hindsight could be perceived as "the last straw that broke the camels back" for a deeply depressed Gary Speed. Much, much more depressed than anyone knew. This is very tough to talk about, but nevertheless I'm surprised nobody has brought up the question about sexual abuse in Gary Speeds life - in this thread. Sexual abuse shouldn't continue to be tabu after all the shit about this terrible phenomenon that has risen up to the surface in the last decade or so. In football and other societies - as well as in society in general.
Very poor, words used that are not common place in the uk....i guess the person doing this is not from this country as some terms used are rather unusual..World qualifier cup !..should be World Cup qualifier and others instances too Zero Zero draw !...the letter is not read as it is written either....pictures of an ambulance from another country!.....such a lot of fluff to fill the time
BWFC ARE CAPTAIN LOVELY MAN WORSHIPPED BY THE BOLTON FAITHFULL 😂Alan Shearer said it you wouldnt have known the night before his tragic death ,laughing and giggling on tv my birthday 13 th october just turned 40 that year ,,(day) as it was in 2004 great lad very missed
@@mrbenn1489 His wife left him in the house but when she came back she found she had left her key so slept in the car. When she woke up, she found Gary's body (she found the key then). Yeah, I really believe that.
Really how do you know? I want a proper source. Do you have any care for the family. His boys who will never get their dad back might see this? Stop spreading rumours

Doesnt add up to me. Evidence is some letter he wrote while at school?
@@Globaldave1970The letter was from his early days at Leeds not Hawarden High school
@@eshehcha Whatever. Is that the first his wife knew about it.
@@Globaldave1970Yes it was, she was devastated and turned to alcohol because she blamed herself
Sadly I know a few similar suicides inside loving families with young children, for the vast majority of us its not in our mind but for a few it makes sense...so bloody sad 😢
God bless gary,depression doesn't discriminate its such a painful way to try and live.❤

Depression has no face. R.I.P.
I was in London celebrating my birthday with friends when i got the news My birthday will never be the same now Fly free Gary MOT
What a terrible weekend that was. My best friend took his own life only two days before Gary.
Feel you, brother. My best friend did the same.... it's like part of me is dead since. All those shared memories and time spent in each other's company, having someone around that knew me so well. I feel like my foundations have been undermined. Hopefully, we will see them again on the other side
Legend… R.I.P. 🙏🏻
God bless Gary he was an inspiration for Leeds saw him play many times and score many great goals an absolute shock his life ended this way rip Gary speed
RIP Legend!
One of the greatest players I've had the pleasure of watching on the Elland Road pitch...and a lovely guy off the pitch...RIP MOT...
Very very sad he was a class footballer
Didn't rate him. Played the odd good pass and was good in the air, but that's it.
Rest in peace, Gary. No need to worry now. I've struggled with demons in my life, too. It's almost too much sometimes.

A great footballer so sad r.i.p
How tragic . The mind is such a complex thing , nobody really knows what other people are going through .
R I P Gary. Gone too soon 😢❤
The point of this was the letter which you never read out properly.
He says I'm going to go to sleep now and hope I never wake up , not hope I feel better when I wake up ?
Just thought would I point that out because that's the truth 👍
The first game I saw Gary play was for my team Leeds United vs Sheffield United when he scored the 4th goal in a 4-0 win
people are so cruel in the comments. Stop spreading lies and rumours. The family needs to be left alone
Legend
RIP Gary ⚒️
He must have thought he had no options left. Great professional footballer. Very sad.
RIP Speedo ❤

Agree, like one of them shocking American voice overs , must have said Gary about a 1000 times ffs
Gary Speed did not score the Penalty in 1990 at Cardiff Arms Park v Romania. No one did. Paul Boden took it and missed. Wales lost. Romania went to Italy World Cup 1990.
Neither did Wales win Euro 2016. (in your dreams). Poorly researched.
@easygoingbloke, And David O'Leary took the penalty that knocked out Romania for Jack Charlton's team to move on. Jack ex- Leeds Captain and world cup winner.
It was in qualifying for the 1994 WC not 1990.
amazing couple so good looking , just the turmoil of marriage R I P god bless
We all live in our own reality. we hid our depression behind our smile.how are you today.
He was a great player ❤
Great Leeds star so sad
it was so strange.i saw him appear on football focus or something,a few days later,i heard that he had committed suicide!what a shock!
You can have all the money in the world but it doesn't always make you happy.especialy if you have demons and cronick depression.i lost a mate to suicide he hung himself didn't show no signs its been 3years now the pain is a bit better now but I will never get over it .
If you have an argument with your nearest and dearest NEVER leave it like that. Always try to make up or at least reaffirm your love for eachother!
Rip garry, steve Swansea ❤
the comments here are so cruel. Feel bad for his wife and his children who lost their dad
Gary Speed...
...Newcastle United Legend...
RIP Speedo
Bless to fam 🎉🎉🎉

All speculation. No-one knows
I loved him when he played for the Toon he was class and such a sad loss and so young
I think alot had to do with the football coaches in his past rip Gs
Speed was abused.
if he saw a professional for depression , hed be ok R I P
He wasn't depressed. His wife cheated on him
setting your sights too high., and stress is a bugger
wtf is 'disapper'?!
Carol not Carl ffs, a zero nil draw? Stop it with the AI and don’t be so lazy
Everton just wasn’t the peak of his career 😂
Obviously American produced video as they know nothing about football
stop misleading people
It is AI generated as is seen from the ambulance image so likely to be incorrect.
people are cruel
What a date 11 11 2011?
Very poor, words used that are not common place in the uk....i guess the person doing this is not from this country as some terms used are rather unusual..World qualifier cup !..should be World Cup qualifier and others instances too Zero Zero draw !...the letter is not read as it is written either....pictures of an ambulance from another country!.....such a lot of fluff to fill the time
Weird commentary on this video puts you right off. A 'zero nil draw' for God's sake.
Either the commentator here is an AI or knows absolutely nothing about football. There are so many mistakes in his commentary!
Very poorly narrated.
You need to know the difference between a transfer fee and a contract plus other mistakes like "The Bolton Wanderers" WTF 😅
Crunched eyebrows are always a give away that a person is not in sound mind.
@er3947, Give over. The whole western world is an open air lunatic asylum and you are making pronouncements about the "signs?"
My dad always has his eyebrows down. He committed suicide. I’m the same although I’ve not committed suicide yet.
@Hello-hellowearethebillyboys hope you don't,I know nothing can make us happy but be strong.
Died 11-11-11. Any significance?
he died 27.11.2011? what you on about.
In the video it states he passed away 11 November (which is incorrect)
No secret, this is common.
Hearts only find peace in the remembrance of ALLAH.
Anything else is depression, misery, alcohol drug addiction.
