He was honest and straight to the point on these topics everybody thinks that Hollywood is good it’s glamour money cars everything that you could possibly have a JDF is saying that’s not everything
@@cjrobles2.0 just got finished watching the whole interview made me cry a little bit this really is a great interview and you should really put this out there you should put it all over the place people need to hear what he had to say
Such a kind hearted man. I know everyone says they were so loving when someone passes away but, this man was a real one and the world lost a beautiful soul when he left this world. Rest easy and God bless jason david frank, thankyou for all the love and time and thought you gave to us all. 🙏✝️🔥❤️
How can you say that? I mean rest easy? Suicide is forbidden in the bible and Qur'an. Three of the worst things a human can ever do is 1)murder 2)suicide 3)Disbelief in Allah/God. Dishonourable mentions rape,racism. Another hero who broke my heart
@@MuhammadAli-xw4yc two seperate beings bro allah and jesus. 2timothy 2:15 tell us to wrightfully devid the word of truth. The commandments were for the nation of isreal not the gentiles. Gid knew we could not save ourselves thats why he came in the flesh, jesus christ. When he died on the cross the veil was torn. Then saul who latter became paul on the road to demasucus God himself jesus christ revealed the mystery which was kept hidden from the world in God which is ephisians 3, that we are saved by grace through faith and not of ourselves. Peter was for isreal, and paul was the gospel to the gentiles in the dispensation of grace. Things of old have gone we are now in grace, revelation is the age to come when the Antichrist reveals himself and grace ends then you will have to once again work for salvation. I see you are muslim obviously i am christian so i can only speak for my belife and what it says. Yes the bible and the 10comandments were give to moses for isreal Gods chosen people, but for us gentiles who were brought in by grace through faith in our lord jesus christ, we are not under law because jesus fullfilled the law. God bless you. Thanks for your comment. I hope this helped you understand christianity a bit better. Peace and grace to you.
Thank you so much for this. I needed this today. I miss JDF a lot. I had the pleasure of meeting him so many times, and he was always the nicest, most down to earth people that I have ever met. Mental health is something I've fought with all my life. I'll be 43 this year, and my mental health issues will never go away, but I find things to do with my time to take my mind away from it.
@@helco2856 Sadly,I think he was smh..I was a big Power Ranger fan..but he was probably a Freemason along with the rest..The Elites ALWAYS target the ones with mental health problems and ones that come from broken homes,because there easy to break and manipulate.
I feel like finally Jason took his mask off and if you can tell you can see the thinking already is going towards suicide and what not...like it eerily adds up. But on the POSITIVE end Jason gave the i dont care bout being the tough guy. He was him without the mask. i think he was seemingy rather lonely its funny people can be lonely and be surrounded by thousands and i feel us fans were there for him. He as us sees us fans as his second or immediate family. It was a special connection with JDF in my eyes. He was " one of us" and i feel this was a cry for help from him. He seemed to want to talk philosophical..to be REAL. not just chit chhat or acting but like when you hsve a beerwith someone RIP Jason David Frank as Zordon once said your a very honorable and coregeous man green ranger. RIP Buddy.
I’m still speechless and skeptical he would choose that path after being so passionate about mental health. What stands out is that anecdote at 22:10 apart from 1:05:00. Very eerie. I hope he found peace now. He made many lives so much better from the work and values he carried out in life. I’m grateful I met him at NY Comic Con not too long ago. He really left an amazing legacy. I was left in shock upon casually finding out the news in transit to Anime NYC as Johnny Y. Bosch abruptly left the convention that morning (in relation). We were gutted and so down when his passing was confirmed that morning. I don’t think I will ever understand why. JDF went too soon. He had so much more to live for!
He needed help as much as anyone else, he found healing in helping others dealing with the same, and he wanted to normalize the discussion both in talks and in art. Can only imagine how Johnny felt in the middle of a convention.
I've met JDF several times and watched a lot of his interviews over the years. This interview was the most enjoyable to watch. It was apparent JDF had a lot on his mind and you did an excellent job allowing him the latitude to speak freely in a non-judgmental environment. Keep up the great work!
Such a good interview.🥺 1:05:30 got me. I still can not fathom it." I'd rather not die cowardly on my knee's and fall. I would rather fight on my knees and continue to fight until I bleed because a fighter is a fighter and I don't give up."
This is definitely a clear sign that even the most wise and experienced people can still be struggling with mental health more than you could ever perceive. His voice carried FAR and this is such a strong interview, just hits so damn hard... We lost one of the best.
This is the day I met JDF💔 I went to his panel thanked him for the impact he had in my life. Appreciated the passion he had for his craft and fans and Commended him for speaking/ spotlighting mental health… JDF Rest in Power King😞
I regret not taking the chance to meet him. I so many conventions I passed on and now I'll never get to speak to one of my childhood heroes. This interview was a great insight to who JDF was.
It hurts me when Stan Lee and Kevin Conroy passed away, but this one hurts me the most because he's my childhood hero, my favourite Power Ranger, my favourite Sixth Ranger, and i still miss him to this day. I can't get over it, i wanted to meet him and, like everyone else, i thought that i had plenty of time for that because we never expect something like this to happen. I hope he looks after all of us, he loved us, every one us, even if he didn't met us all, we were his kids. Thanks for the video. Big hug.
Well the difference between Sten Lee, and Jason David Frank is Stan Lee had a long life, and died at old age. I’m not sad he died. I’m happy he lived a long life. When people get at that age they get tired. Yeah it’s sad he’s no longer around, but it will happen sooner or later, and I’m happy for him, but with Jason David Frank he had many years in him, and had so much potential. So I’m more upset with Jason then I am with Stan Lee
He enjoyed this conversation so much that he didn't want it to end. Everytime you almost wrapped things up he kept talking, I dont think he wanted it to end because he found it therapeutic. You are a greart host, thankyou for giving JDF a chance to talk about this. He had alot to get off his chest. Real shame he decided to end it all but this video is an important part of his final days.
I can't wait to see Legend of the White Dragon! He was an inspiration for a generation of kids like me. As a fellow warrior, I joined the military after Sept 11, '01. Now a Veteran, I've been dealing with my mental health issues. JDF hits so many points on depression and anxiety and the way things are in society, which is affecting everyone in it. We will continue to fight that good fight. He is missed. Rest in Power and Peace, Jason David Frank!
Listening to this interview, I tend to get the feeling that Jason David Frank was battling his own monsters within him for a long time. Not only him being the Green/White Ranger helped other people in their lives but I felt that maybe that was one way he was also helping to save his own life during that time too. Sadly like the Green Candle, it was bound to be burnt out, it just became tragic.
Thank you for sharing. It is still hard to process his passing. I met him twice in my life. He was so kind and down to earth! May he rest in peace. #RIPJDF💐❤️🕊️🙏🏽
This interview breaks my heart! I always wanted to meet JDF and tell him he was like a dad to me. First male role model I ever had! I wish I could have been there when he needed someone!
He did this from the heart not for money, and nobody knew JDF was dealing with his own mental health problem. I think JDF wanted more than just PRs at 49. I know he wanted take his acting career to the same level as Chuck Norris. Thank you for entertaining and inspiring 90s kids JDF.
@@ChrisHillASMR I have no clue. I just know in my heart that he wouldn't have done that to himself. There is 101 different things that could be the truth behind what actually happened. Only JDF knows. I feel they still need to investigate it.
A lot of the time people like him will tell people the opposite of what’s in their head to try and motivate and help people. You do it to try and stop anyone else from becoming the pain and darkness that you have become. When your mind is screaming at you like a it’s in an asylum trying to escape , you don’t want anyone else to be like that. You motivate people because you can’t help yourself.
Listening to him talk. I just wish I could’ve have been a voice to help his heart or at least give him some comfort! It ain’t easy being a hero but he’s changed my life for the better and God bless him and I’m thankful he became the Green Power Ranger otherwise I would’ve never known him!! Also my name is Tommy so that helps too!!!! 🙂🙂🙂 💚 ⚡️
I can't imagine how hard this was to edit. Thank you so much for letting us get one last conversation with JDF, he really opened up and this feels like a gift. RIP Brother
Thank you for taking the time and effort to edit and upload this, especially in light of Jason David Frank's recent and tragic passing. JDF is so raw, so real, and so human in this interview-moreso than in any other one I've seen him give over the last 29 years. That speaks to your talents as an interviewer and as a genuine fan of his work, and where he was mentally and emotionally at that time, where he felt comfortable sharing things with the fanbase that he might not have only a few years ago. This man was a childhood hero to millions of us, and having this profound look into his head and heart at this one particular moment in time is priceless, poignant, and timely. Again, thank you. And God rest his soul.
Yea I think it was mostly where he was at the time, that’s why he told him to let’s do this interview right away asap without eating first. His White Dragon film supposedly deals with these topics too according to the director, it seems to have been his biggest priority/passion and also a gateway into better method acting for him.
Mental health is complicated. You can tell he's stressed. Something to remember the passion he has about what he's talking about is because it's important to him . Ask yourself why. Suicide is a moment in time. A choice you can't take back. Everyone wants to believe it was an explosion that caused it but what if it was a quiet moment. The thing I've taken from Jason is his strength and love for the world he wanted to leave a legacy and he did.
this is sad, because less than a month later JDF was gone.. it made me cry, thank you for posting it because it is relatable to alot of people especially his fans, thats why he was so loved... ❤ 💔 💔 ❤😭
I can see your nervous in the interview, Def how it is around him lol. That's a legend there man. He started taking a lot of advice from other celebs in the end that was his hero. He was struggling, but Tammy put him over the edge, he held out for the longest though.
This video should have alot more views and likes than what it does! Thank you for doing this interview! He is such a cool down to earth guy exactly like Tommy Oliver.. God rest his soul 🙏
So this kinda popped up on my feed a few hours ago and I am glad that he decided to sit down and talk to you. I'm still sadden by his passing and it was more of a punch due to losing my aunt two months before. Thank you for sharing this and I have shared it on my Facebook feed for some of my friends who are also fans of his.
JDF is one of a kind. Think about him very often. The connection he had with anyone who has had the fortune to be around him was magnetic and he resonated at a special wavelength. If you were ever at any of the conventions or the meet and greets, he transmitted such great positive energy and always was able to chat it up person to person. JDF put so much sacrifice on making himself accesible to his fans. Met him numerous times and I can sum him up in 2 words Genuine Hero. Thank you for approaching Jason and asking him for this talk. This is one of, if not the most special video I’ve seen Jason in. I’ll be back to visit this one again and again. This is a phenomenal piece you created and thank you for sharing it with us. Rest In Power JDF
Thank you so much for sharing this moment with Jason. I’m in tears because I see myself in him so much. I miss him 😢God bless him soul. He saved a lot of peoples lives.
This was an amazing, deep interview. Thank you for sharing. It was heartbreaking to hear him say that he would rather die fighting on his knees than to just give up & die. The pain we experience can be so much sometimes. Hope we all take a minute each week as busy as we are to help even in a small way like a word of encouragement to someone. Please share this interview as much as you can. It was an example of Mr. Frank at his finest offering insight, inspiration and kindness.
I was so glad to have met him when he was hitting up comic shops during covid. And it was San Antonio as well. My daughter did not know who he was but he still was so nice to her. I just feel that there is way more to all this. I truly don’t think he took his own life. But in the end we will never what happened in that room
I've been having a hard time with his passing lately and I can say this was the best interview I've seen with him. He really opened up as much as he could in a public forum and that was only possible because of you and how you made him feel. I wish I could go back in time and talk to him and say please find another way. He indirectly told us all in this interview everything he was going through. Ugh, you are so missed my dude...
CJ, I want to say thank you for sharing this video on TH-cam for everyone to enjoy, and to listen about the mental health issues that JDF was going through. I was not able to watch your entire interview, but I know that I will someday, but I am glad that the topic of "mental health" has been brought up by him, and by so many other people on social media and online as a whole about how important our mental health is. We need to continue to spread awareness of mental health to lots of other people that we might come across in our journeys. I know that at times it is difficult for me to talk about my mental health issues as well, but it is not a problem to me anymore. What I find difficult is being able to help someone who is in need of help. Yes, the only thing that we can do is talk to them, but if they are going through some sort of crisis in their life, and they live so far away, it can be difficult to contact them and talk about what their issues are. I think that we all need to be more aware of people's struggles, and if we see someone who might be dealing with mental health issues, even from TH-cam videos, we need to reach out to them and ask if they are doing okay, and ask if there is anything that we can do for them.
There arent strong enough words for how fantastic this interview was. Thank you for doing this. I've known Jason a long. He knew me by name at cons. I love/loved the man. He was wise beyond on his years, and a great, amazing man. Just cant thank you enough.
Suicide dosent end the chances of life getting worse, It eliminates the possibility of it ever getting any better. RIP JDF you were my Hero and alot of our Heroes!! =(
I’m so glad that you did this interview. I get in the moment when I meet a hero, get nervous, and forget to ask and say what matters. This means a lot to me. Thank you. 👊🏾🏆
Man this interview is so powerful! I’ve followed this man my entire life (like many others) I thought I’d seen and heard everything he had to say until now. This is the most important interview of his and so close to his passing. You should be proud of this and thank you for taking your shot in line and one last time proving how priceless this man was and will continue to be thanks to his legacy. RIP JDF we love you and thank you for who you were 💚
Thank you for sharing this! I didn't finish all of it yet but I am very appreciative of this as someone always dealing with mental health. Losing JDF really hurt as also a Fox kids 90s kid over here.
Thank you for sharing this truly amazing interview. It may be an hour and a half long but it flies by because it's so in depth and inspirational. You can tell there was a lot that he needed to speak about and even there he was still giving us stuff. Dropping million dollar gems with each thing he said. Thank you JDF. Your legacy will live on forever, bro.
This conversation is Truly Amazing! Thanks for sharing 🕯️💚🙏 JDF was My Hero since age 4 I'm 34 Years Young now I wouldn't be in Martial Art's and where I am now without Tommy Oliver back in the 90s Him and Bruce Lee ☯️🐉🙏 I finally got a chance Thank God last year at Galexycon and man JDF I booked 4 minutes with him bless him he talked for 12 And got to Thank him for Everything 🙏❤️ It ment the world to Me and I'm Just Thankful, Man this talk you can tell he was really engaged with this Interview not just for camera but I know like he said He could read people So Thank You for this man keep going with Your Podcast 🙏
@ace360 I’m glad you did the GalaxyCon meet & greet. I’ve done a lot of those. I could totally see JDF giving you all that extra time. I appreciate him being like that. I grew up watching Bruce Lee too.
Thank you for this. My heart is will forever be broken that he is no longer with us but these words he spoke with you I feel like were for all of us too. I will cherish it and come back to watch whenever I need to see his face or hear his voice. Thank you again.
Weeks later he took his life, he sounds so tired in his voice, his breathing was labored he’s literally hyperventilating at times you can tell. His blood pressure was probably through the roof…❤❤❤
What a pleasure to watch. It feels very special and personal, getting to hear him be candid about some inner feelings and thoughts like he did. I appreciate the interview.
Out all the Interview I had seen of JDF this been the best one I seen so far. Is a deep interview. Thanks for sharing with me. I meet him in real life and his lost hot very deep in my heart 💜. It been more than one month and still hurt. Keep up the good work. RIP JDF. 😢 🙏
Thank you for sharing this interview it really hits home. We need more discussion and relating to one another in this chaotic world. I subscribed can’t wait to see what else you do in the future! You have my support!
Hope you’re doing well and thank you for posting this. There’s a lot of insight into who he truly was and what he was going through. I was shocked and confused and hurt when I’d heard about his death. However I appreciate you for taking the time to talk to him and share this with the world. This has helped me be able to better understand his situation and ultimately grieve this untimely loss. Thank you again. #RIPJDF #JDFforever
@CJRobles Thanks a lot for uploading this interview which was done just mere weeks before his untimely and tragic passing. Like yourself, I grew up watching Power Rangers including the original iteration of MMPR. Jason David Frank and Austin Saint John were two of my favorites and I idolized them. I remember dressing back in the 90s as a little boy as the White Power Ranger for Halloween. He had so much to live for, had a charmed life, and was a veritable inspiration. He was a classy and decent person who strived to make other people's lives better. I still haven't come to terms with his death. I wish I could have been there for him last month on 11/19/22 and done something to save his life in his time of despair, despondency, anxiety, and suffering. I think if he had one good friend with him on that day to give him support he would still be with us today. I hope that both Jason David Frank and Thuy Trang are in a much better place🙏🙏. It's sad how the most honorable people leave this world far too soon. I still can't believe what transpired just a month ago.
This is a Strong interview to hold buddy, people will be watching this for years! - well done! / Struggling this week with the passing of JDF, The Geezer was my Hero! - Thanks for this!
It’s taking me a while to watch this. I luckily got to met him multiple times over the years. Still hard to believe that he’s gone. Thanks for the memories brother.
What a memorable interview. Thank you for taking the time to interview him. Glad that he was down to do one with you. Rest In Paradise Jason David Frank, you will always be our green ranger.
CJ, I believe God put the dream in you to start this project because it’s helping so many people, too! If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have these meaningful moments! Thank you for following your callings!❤
Thank you, he will be miss for sure. I hope you save these uploads for the future incase youtube ends up deleting them or something new comes along and wipes out youtube. Nobody knows what the future may bring, but definitely for sure this man's legacy lives on and people will still be seeking his mental health advice here and there. I know I am. I appreciate your content. Goodluck bro. Best Wishes
Thanks for sharing this video. When I found out about his death, I cried. I agree with some of these commenters about him looking tired and broken.😢 RIP JDF(Tommy Oliver) 💚🤍❤🖤💔
Great video. Sadly, he died just the day after my birthday. I remember feeling just so shocked and numb the next evening when I got the heartbreaking news that he died.
Thanks for uploading this. It was great to watch. I've been struggling mentally lately, and jdf was always a great example for me. Watching your video has helped. It was good to see him and hear him again.
CJ, this interview you conducted was an overwhelming combination of heartbreaking yet inspiring. Heartbreaking because Jason David Frank's passing is beyond unfair and cruel! I did not want to believe it at first because I thought it was a hoax and that my hardened skepticism overruled my better judgment. However, as more legitimate sources flourished, I was upset, saddened, shocked, and morose. Inspiring because it was through Jason David Frank that I learned to appreciate Tommy's journey as a Power Ranger on a more profound level. Furthermore, it is through martial artists like Jason David Frank that I found beauty, strength, courage, and determination in the martial arts.
Thank you for this video. Not only do I love JDF and Power Rangers, but this discussion was the real deal man and I haven't heard anyone say povrecito since my great grandma that passed away 12 years ago.
Hey CJ thanks for sharing this interview with JDF. I just came across your video on TH-cam and i really injoyd watching it. Jason really was a awsome guy and he will be missed. Thanks again man
"Dedicated to Jason David Frank and everyone who is and has battled with mental health and the darkness of this world" In darkness we dwell and seether in pain We didn’t create this hell, but it’s where we remain Following a light that shines through these depths Hoping salvation is the prize that we get For every victory we achieve, add two more loses to the books It’s almost as if relief is just bait that’s on a hook A vacation from pain is a ticket to addiction We must learn to deal with this burden or live our lives in a fiction The lies we tell ourselves to get through the day May just be the bullet that takes one of us away An honest assessment is where we all must start Pay no attention to the voices in your head; you must listen to your heart You can make it out, there is always a way But for those that have lost their battle, there is one thing that I must say I understand your pain, and I feel your despair Rest easy brave soldier, God has you, and he was always there

This is definitely a clear sign that even the most wise and experienced people can still be struggling with mental health more than you could ever perceive. His voice carried FAR and this is such a strong interview, just hits so damn hard... We lost one of the best.
This is the day I met JDF💔
I went to his panel thanked him for the impact he had in my life. Appreciated the passion he had for his craft and fans and Commended him for speaking/ spotlighting mental health…

I regret not taking the chance to meet him. I so many conventions I passed on and now I'll never get to speak to one of my childhood heroes. This interview was a great insight to who JDF was.
He looks so tired 😢
It hurts me when Stan Lee and Kevin Conroy passed away, but this one hurts me the most because he's my childhood hero, my favourite Power Ranger, my favourite Sixth Ranger, and i still miss him to this day.
I can't get over it, i wanted to meet him and, like everyone else, i thought that i had plenty of time for that because we never expect something like this to happen.
I hope he looks after all of us, he loved us, every one us, even if he didn't met us all, we were his kids.
Thanks for the video.

Well the difference between Sten Lee, and Jason David Frank is Stan Lee had a long life, and died at old age. I’m not sad he died. I’m happy he lived a long life. When people get at that age they get tired. Yeah it’s sad he’s no longer around, but it will happen sooner or later, and I’m happy for him, but with Jason David Frank he had many years in him, and had so much potential.

He enjoyed this conversation so much that he didn't want it to end. Everytime you almost wrapped things up he kept talking, I dont think he wanted it to end because he found it therapeutic. You are a greart host, thankyou for giving JDF a chance to talk about this. He had alot to get off his chest. Real shame he decided to end it all but this video is an important part of his final days.
I can't wait to see Legend of the White Dragon! He was an inspiration for a generation of kids like me. As a fellow warrior, I joined the military after Sept 11, '01. Now a Veteran, I've been dealing with my mental health issues. JDF hits so many points on depression and anxiety and the way things are in society, which is affecting everyone in it. We will continue to fight that good fight. He is missed. Rest in Power and Peace, Jason David Frank!
Jason’s poetry is beautiful. The video on his TH-cam for mask was amazing. Very deep man with a lot of soul and heart. Rest in peace.
I'm so so so sad over this. I really miss him. I can't believe how hard his departure hit me.
This doesnt make sense. He talked about suicide and did the opposite with his life
Listening to this interview, I tend to get the feeling that Jason David Frank was battling his own monsters within him for a long time.
Not only him being the Green/White Ranger helped other people in their lives but I felt that maybe that was one way he was also helping to save his own life during that time too.
Sadly like the Green Candle, it was bound to be burnt out, it just became tragic.
Thank you for sharing. It is still hard to process his passing. I met him twice in my life. He was so kind and down to earth! May he rest in peace. #RIPJDF💐❤️🕊️🙏🏽
This interview breaks my heart! I always wanted to meet JDF and tell him he was like a dad to me. First male role model I ever had! I wish I could have been there when he needed someone!
Yeah man he was a good man like me and people should respect people like that.
He did this from the heart not for money, and nobody knew JDF was dealing with his own mental health problem. I think JDF wanted more than just PRs at 49. I know he wanted take his acting career to the same level as Chuck Norris. Thank you for entertaining and inspiring 90s kids JDF.
This was 21 days before he passed. God rest his soul 💚 we love you Jason
Im literally crying rn...🥺 I love him so much❤❤ he was so sweet rip jason david frank 😔❤
Thank you for this. We won't just love and admire him as a hero for the rest of his life; we will love and admire him for the rest of ours.
Thank you for sharing this. He has told us flat out right there in the end of the interview that he would have NEVER killed himself!
What do you think happened. Its a sus af situation
@@ChrisHillASMR I have no clue. I just know in my heart that he wouldn't have done that to himself. There is 101 different things that could be the truth behind what actually happened. Only JDF knows. I feel they still need to investigate it.
A lot of the time people like him will tell people the opposite of what’s in their head to try and motivate and help people. You do it to try and stop anyone else from becoming the pain and darkness that you have become. When your mind is screaming at you like a it’s in an asylum trying to escape , you don’t want anyone else to be like that. You motivate people because you can’t help yourself.
Losing his daughter could’ve been the breaking point. Depression is an illness. It’s only hard for you to understand cause you weren’t in his head.
Listening to him talk. I just wish I could’ve have been a voice to help his heart or at least give him some comfort! It ain’t easy being a hero but he’s changed my life for the better and God bless him and I’m thankful he became the Green Power Ranger otherwise I would’ve never known him!! Also my name is Tommy so that helps too!!!! 🙂🙂🙂 💚 ⚡️
I can't imagine how hard this was to edit. Thank you so much for letting us get one last conversation with JDF, he really opened up and this feels like a gift. RIP Brother
Only just seen this interview and I had tears in my eyes. Thank you so much.
Thank you for taking the time and effort to edit and upload this, especially in light of Jason David Frank's recent and tragic passing. JDF is so raw, so real, and so human in this interview-moreso than in any other one I've seen him give over the last 29 years. That speaks to your talents as an interviewer and as a genuine fan of his work, and where he was mentally and emotionally at that time, where he felt comfortable sharing things with the fanbase that he might not have only a few years ago. This man was a childhood hero to millions of us, and having this profound look into his head and heart at this one particular moment in time is priceless, poignant, and timely. Again, thank you. And God rest his soul.
Yea I think it was mostly where he was at the time, that’s why he told him to let’s do this interview right away asap without eating first. His White Dragon film supposedly deals with these topics too according to the director, it seems to have been his biggest priority/passion and also a gateway into better method acting for him.
Mental health is complicated. You can tell he's stressed. Something to remember the passion he has about what he's talking about is because it's important to him . Ask yourself why. Suicide is a moment in time. A choice you can't take back. Everyone wants to believe it was an explosion that caused it but what if it was a quiet moment. The thing I've taken from Jason is his strength and love for the world he wanted to leave a legacy and he did.
this is sad, because less than a month later JDF was gone.. it made me cry, thank you for posting it because it is relatable to alot of people especially his fans, thats why he was so loved... ❤ 💔 💔 ❤😭
I can see your nervous in the interview, Def how it is around him lol. That's a legend there man. He started taking a lot of advice from other celebs in the end that was his hero. He was struggling, but Tammy put him over the edge, he held out for the longest though.
This video should have alot more views and likes than what it does! Thank you for doing this interview! He is such a cool down to earth guy exactly like Tommy Oliver.. God rest his soul 🙏
So this kinda popped up on my feed a few hours ago and I am glad that he decided to sit down and talk to you. I'm still sadden by his passing and it was more of a punch due to losing my aunt two months before. Thank you for sharing this and I have shared it on my Facebook feed for some of my friends who are also fans of his.
Thanks so much for sharing this. His death truly hit hard as I have been in the same spot. Miss the gent more than can express.
JDF is one of a kind. Think about him very often. The connection he had with anyone who has had the fortune to be around him was magnetic and he resonated at a special wavelength. If you were ever at any of the conventions or the meet and greets, he transmitted such great positive energy and always was able to chat it up person to person. JDF put so much sacrifice on making himself accesible to his fans. Met him numerous times and I can sum him up in 2 words Genuine Hero. Thank you for approaching Jason and asking him for this talk. This is one of, if not the most special video I’ve seen Jason in. I’ll be back to visit this one again and again. This is a phenomenal piece you created and thank you for sharing it with us. Rest In Power JDF
RIP JDF 🙏🏼. You will be missed dearly my friend. Once a ranger, always a ranger. #90sbaby #growingupinthe90s
Thank you so much for sharing this moment with Jason. I’m in tears because I see myself in him so much. I miss him 😢God bless him soul. He saved a lot of peoples lives.
Thank you for the interview for letting us understand what jason david frank was going through R.I.P Jason david frank 🥺🥺
Thank you for sharing this interview with the world. Once a ranger. Always a ranger.
This was an amazing, deep interview. Thank you for sharing. It was heartbreaking to hear him say that he would rather die fighting on his knees than to just give up & die. The pain we experience can be so much sometimes. Hope we all take a minute each week as busy as we are to help even in a small way like a word of encouragement to someone. Please share this interview as much as you can. It was an example of Mr. Frank at his finest offering insight, inspiration and kindness.
I was so glad to have met him when he was hitting up comic shops during covid. And it was San Antonio as well. My daughter did not know who he was but he still was so nice to her. I just feel that there is way more to all this. I truly don’t think he took his own life. But in the end we will never what happened in that room
I've been having a hard time with his passing lately and I can say this was the best interview I've seen with him. He really opened up as much as he could in a public forum and that was only possible because of you and how you made him feel. I wish I could go back in time and talk to him and say please find another way. He indirectly told us all in this interview everything he was going through. Ugh, you are so missed my dude...
CJ, I want to say thank you for sharing this video on TH-cam for everyone to enjoy, and to listen about the mental health issues that JDF was going through. I was not able to watch your entire interview, but I know that I will someday, but I am glad that the topic of "mental health" has been brought up by him, and by so many other people on social media and online as a whole about how important our mental health is. We need to continue to spread awareness of mental health to lots of other people that we might come across in our journeys. I know that at times it is difficult for me to talk about my mental health issues as well, but it is not a problem to me anymore. What I find difficult is being able to help someone who is in need of help. Yes, the only thing that we can do is talk to them, but if they are going through some sort of crisis in their life, and they live so far away, it can be difficult to contact them and talk about what their issues are. I think that we all need to be more aware of people's struggles, and if we see someone who might be dealing with mental health issues, even from TH-cam videos, we need to reach out to them and ask if they are doing okay, and ask if there is anything that we can do for them.
There arent strong enough words for how fantastic this interview was. Thank you for doing this. I've known Jason a long. He knew me by name at cons. I love/loved the man. He was wise beyond on his years, and a great, amazing man. Just cant thank you enough.
Suicide dosent end the chances of life getting worse, It eliminates the possibility of it ever getting any better. RIP JDF you were my Hero and alot of our Heroes!! =(
I’m so glad that you did this interview. I get in the moment when I meet a hero, get nervous, and forget to ask and say what matters. This means a lot to me. Thank you. 👊🏾🏆
Man this interview is so powerful!
I’ve followed this man my entire life (like many others) I thought I’d seen and heard everything he had to say until now.
This is the most important interview of his and so close to his passing. You should be proud of this and thank you for taking your shot in line and one last time proving how priceless this man was and will continue to be thanks to his legacy.
RIP JDF we love you and thank you for who you were 💚
Thank you for sharing this! I didn't finish all of it yet but I am very appreciative of this as someone always dealing with mental health. Losing JDF really hurt as also a Fox kids 90s kid over here.
Thank you for sharing this with us, CJ. 💚
This video about mental health is so good !
This is possibly one of his last interviews before he died. RIP JDF
Thank you for sharing this truly amazing interview. It may be an hour and a half long but it flies by because it's so in depth and inspirational. You can tell there was a lot that he needed to speak about and even there he was still giving us stuff. Dropping million dollar gems with each thing he said. Thank you JDF.
Your legacy will live on forever, bro.
This conversation is Truly Amazing! Thanks for sharing 🕯️💚🙏 JDF was My Hero since age 4 I'm 34 Years Young now I wouldn't be in Martial Art's and where I am now without Tommy Oliver back in the 90s Him and Bruce Lee ☯️🐉🙏 I finally got a chance Thank God last year at Galexycon and man JDF I booked 4 minutes with him bless him he talked for 12 And got to Thank him for Everything 🙏❤️ It ment the world to Me and I'm Just Thankful, Man this talk you can tell he was really engaged with this Interview not just for camera but I know like he said He could read people So Thank You for this man keep going with Your Podcast 🙏
@ace360 I’m glad you did the GalaxyCon meet & greet. I’ve done a lot of those. I could totally see JDF giving you all that extra time. I appreciate him being like that. I grew up watching Bruce Lee too.
Thank you for this. My heart is will forever be broken that he is no longer with us but these words he spoke with you I feel like were for all of us too. I will cherish it and come back to watch whenever I need to see his face or hear his voice. Thank you again.
I hope I listen as much as is needed. He spoke for all of us
Thank you so much for posting this! Subscribed. Take care and God bless you
Rest In Power JDF. The Good Die Young.
Holy shit man, thanks for sharing this interview. I can't finish it up... my heart aches.
Thank you for posting this CJ, jdf was such an awesome guy. Still cant believe hes gone 😢
Weeks later he took his life, he sounds so tired in his voice, his breathing was labored he’s literally hyperventilating at times you can tell. His blood pressure was probably through the roof…❤❤❤
I won't say his blood pressure say tho but u can see the raw emotion
Notice how when talking about mental illness and struggling, he didn't make it about himself at all, he talked about trying to help other people.
What a pleasure to watch. It feels very special and personal, getting to hear him be candid about some inner feelings and thoughts like he did. I appreciate the interview.
Thank you for doing this. As a content creator, what JDF said really resonated with me.
Out all the Interview I had seen of JDF this been the best one I seen so far. Is a deep interview. Thanks for sharing with me. I meet him in real life and his lost hot very deep in my heart 💜. It been more than one month and still hurt. Keep up the good work. RIP JDF. 😢 🙏
This was a wonderful interview! Thank you so much for sharing this!
Thank you for sharing this interview it really hits home. We need more discussion and relating to one another in this chaotic world. I subscribed can’t wait to see what else you do in the future! You have my support!
Thank you so much. I really appreciate the support.
Hope you’re doing well and thank you for posting this. There’s a lot of insight into who he truly was and what he was going through. I was shocked and confused and hurt when I’d heard about his death. However I appreciate you for taking the time to talk to him and share this with the world. This has helped me be able to better understand his situation and ultimately grieve this untimely loss. Thank you again. #RIPJDF #JDFforever
@CJRobles Thanks a lot for uploading this interview which was done just mere weeks before his untimely and tragic passing. Like yourself, I grew up watching Power Rangers including the original iteration of MMPR. Jason David Frank and Austin Saint John were two of my favorites and I idolized them. I remember dressing back in the 90s as a little boy as the White Power Ranger for Halloween. He had so much to live for, had a charmed life, and was a veritable inspiration. He was a classy and decent person who strived to make other people's lives better. I still haven't come to terms with his death. I wish I could have been there for him last month on 11/19/22 and done something to save his life in his time of despair, despondency, anxiety, and suffering. I think if he had one good friend with him on that day to give him support he would still be with us today. I hope that both Jason David Frank and Thuy Trang are in a much better place🙏🙏. It's sad how the most honorable people leave this world far too soon. I still can't believe what transpired just a month ago.
Thank You so much for posting this, this was one of the most personnel interviews Jason could have given.
This is a Strong interview to hold buddy, people will be watching this for years! - well done! / Struggling this week with the passing of JDF, The Geezer was my Hero! - Thanks for this!
Man, great interview. RIP JDF. We're all sad he's pasted on. But it would've been a cool idea if JDF had like his own podcast.
It’s taking me a while to watch this. I luckily got to met him multiple times over the years. Still hard to believe that he’s gone. Thanks for the memories brother.
What a memorable interview. Thank you for taking the time to interview him. Glad that he was down to do one with you. Rest In Paradise Jason David Frank, you will always be our green ranger.
CJ, I believe God put the dream in you to start this project because it’s helping so many people, too! If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have these meaningful moments! Thank you for following your callings!❤
Thanks for this special Interview!! I was thinking a lot about his death lately! Such a great guy.
Thank you, he will be miss for sure.
I hope you save these uploads for the future incase youtube ends up deleting them or something new comes along and wipes out youtube.
Nobody knows what the future may bring, but definitely for sure this man's legacy lives on and people will still be seeking his mental health advice here and there.
I know I am. I appreciate your content. Goodluck bro. Best Wishes
Thanks for sharing this video. When I found out about his death, I cried. I agree with some of these commenters about him looking tired and broken.😢 RIP JDF(Tommy Oliver) 💚🤍❤🖤💔
Amazing. I really appreciate this video. I'm glad there are so many trying to fight for mental health today. Especially for men.
Thank you for posting this man
You can tell he’s talking about his divorce struggles when he’s talking about fighting on his knees and his name being dragged.
RIP JDF...our hero...
Thank you so much for posting this video 💚 I miss this guy
Great video.
Sadly, he died just the day after my birthday.
I remember feeling just so shocked and numb the next evening when I got the heartbreaking news that he died.
Thanks for uploading this. It was great to watch. I've been struggling mentally lately, and jdf was always a great example for me. Watching your video has helped. It was good to see him and hear him again.
CJ, this interview you conducted was an overwhelming combination of heartbreaking yet inspiring. Heartbreaking because Jason David Frank's passing is beyond unfair and cruel! I did not want to believe it at first because I thought it was a hoax and that my hardened skepticism overruled my better judgment. However, as more legitimate sources flourished, I was upset, saddened, shocked, and morose. Inspiring because it was through Jason David Frank that I learned to appreciate Tommy's journey as a Power Ranger on a more profound level. Furthermore, it is through martial artists like Jason David Frank that I found beauty, strength, courage, and determination in the martial arts.
I know you heard this before...but thanks for posting this man.
A lot of us appreciate it.
So lucky Im glad you got to meet him i wish I could of
LLJDF, deff going to be watching Legend of the white dragon in September 2023
Thanks for posting I was looking forward to meeting him at a con next year's but unfortunately he has passed on but this video is priceless.
Thank you for this video. Not only do I love JDF and Power Rangers, but this discussion was the real deal man and I haven't heard anyone say povrecito since my great grandma that passed away 12 years ago.
Hey CJ thanks for sharing this interview with JDF. I just came across your video on TH-cam and i really injoyd watching it. Jason really was a awsome guy and he will be missed. Thanks again man
Ty CJ for sharing this interview
Thank you for posting this. Im going to watch those poems.
It wasn't fair. Jason, I am so sorry. I wish you were still here. 😔 Death is not the end.
Ty for doing this & sharing this it helps alot ,R,I,P, JDF ty for being are hero
"Dedicated to Jason David Frank and everyone who is and has battled with mental health and the darkness of this world"
In darkness we dwell and seether in pain
We didn’t create this hell, but it’s where we remain
Following a light that shines through these depths
Hoping salvation is the prize that we get
For every victory we achieve, add two more loses to the books
It’s almost as if relief is just bait that’s on a hook
A vacation from pain is a ticket to addiction
We must learn to deal with this burden or live our lives in a fiction
The lies we tell ourselves to get through the day
May just be the bullet that takes one of us away
An honest assessment is where we all must start
Pay no attention to the voices in your head; you must listen to your heart
You can make it out, there is always a way
But for those that have lost their battle, there is one thing that I must say
I understand your pain, and I feel your despair
Rest easy brave soldier, God has you, and he was always there
That was beautiful and written from the heart. Thank you for sharing.
@@cjrobles2.0 It's been a while since I've written any kind of poetry, but I was inspired to write it after watching "In My Head" by Jason David Frank. th-cam.com/video/P1ht3-oJL28/w-d-xo.html
