I’m a therapist and her statement that they have still chemistry and his statement that he keeps her as a girlfriend and a lover not just as the mother of his kids, is the key to a happy and enduring marriage.
Katie... I couldn't agree with you more I am a surfer who's been married 23 years also. About four or five years into it we went through a rough patch, you know you reap what others sew family passed Etc. But God pulled us through and I'm proud of them for working it out instead of finding a way out!
I've been married twice and I promise you had I been treated in the manner that Laird thinks about Gabbie, we would still be married. It is a perspective, though.
But he did not treat you that way because he did not want to be with you.
my dad was like that, he was such a sweet loving guy sober. After he drank he was mean and a different personality. Drinking is a tough one to conquer in a family.
No idea how Graham doesn’t have 1m subscribers
“ how can someone be with you if you don’t want to be with yourself” very powerful words from Laird
These longer clips are so nice! Flows so much better than when broken into a bunch of 2 - 3 min ones.
Gabby Reece is as real and as beautiful as a women can be. That glow comes from the inside out.
too bad she dyes her hair
He abandoned his own child just like his dad abandoned him (and he abandoned his wife and child for some woman he knew for less than a week). He sounds like a narcissist and so does she.
What woman in her right mind would have anything to do with a man who is not only married but has a baby? Just ick to both him and Gabby.
He raised the kid from his first wife as well as the other kids.
I get where you are coming from.
They were already seperated and he didn't abandon the child.
You just meet someone better for you, sometimes.it happens..and he has had a very long and sustained healthy relationship with gabby
They both seem incredibly toxic. Everything they say is odd
Comments of ego on Laird are spot on.
Confidence in oneself can reflect an egotism that most people simply judge as an undesirable characteristic, and yet...
Confidence is how this man revolutionized a sport before all others, while making changes in his life to bring balance within love of Family. Hats off and soulful smile to accomplishment for Mr & Mrs Hamilton.
Gabby is intelligent indeed
TH-cam brought me here after I watched her Joe Rogan interview
Queen she is
Yo same!!
yup.
Same! She def has something about her. I’d never really paid too much attention to her before.
me too!
Same here as well.
Graham can ask hard questions without feeling like he’s impeding or just trying to make a story. Knows how to make an interview a conversation even though he is asking all the questions.
There Is no need for interviewer, those guys always fuck things up........just let the guy tell a story, and what he want to tell.....maybe he doesnt wanna answer some questions........." but the people wanna know bla bla bla"....FUCK YOU!!!.......i hate interview guys.......
I've watched a bunch of Graham's interviews and I think he is my favorite interviewer. He's respectful he does his homework before he interviews anyone and he seems genuinely interested in that person
Such a great interview getting both sides. Great perspective seeing two professional athletes so vulnerable and honest. The honesty and respect and not giving up on each other. “I’ve seen you at your worst. I still love you. You’ve seen me at my worst” mad respect for these two!
I appreciate Laird's candidness -- he's not trying to fluff anything up, especially while answering some questions that required taking some accountability.
it's not candidness its called narcissism. he literally has no remorse.
Makes him a giant in more ways than one.
Laird is an absolute legend. He’s totally transparent. No B.S. The biggest surf innovator and charger hands down. Inspiring man.
@Fran Ra so THAT interaction 30 years ago negates all the rest of his life and makes you worthy judge of him.....HAHAHHA, you feeling the ALOHA yet?
@Fran Ra Did he pull your leash?
Yeah, so "inspiring" to listen to him talk about how he abandoned his wife and infant to move in with some chick he'd met a week earlier. I'm so motivated after hearing that!/end sarcasm
I think he is all about himself. Selfish
He seems like a narcissist
Outstanding interview. If you just shut up and listen, this interview can be extremely valuable to you or others in your life. Watch it a second time without distractions.
Thanks for telling me what to do.
Selfishness, Got to respect his honesty, very rare in people today.
@@youtubeKathy the marriage may have been over...for HIM, but there are two sides to every story. While I respect Laird's honest answer (and his nervous laugh after), I'd bet my surfboard the ex's take is different.
@@mftd9316 if the marriage is over for him than it's over for her too. It's better for both parties to have a clean break and move on than to cling on to something that won't work. But i'm of course speaking about rational adults with some semblance of self control.
Lol! Let's agree Laird's an honest man!
Yes , a real life villain! He reminds me of the joker with that laugh.
An honest mad man
Reminds me of a guy that has a few beers and u realize how much u never wanna be around him again.
EXACTLY right.
guitarsurfer2010 pretty sure he had plenty of his own $$. But yeah, he seems like a douche.
wow..you nailed him man..cant stand this guy and his big ego !
Boy you don't know Laird.
@@ONCEuponAtime999 jealous much?
0:05 Watch how he squirms when she points at him and says "I like you" She has an uncanny ability to communicate and connect. A real queen of a woman. Mr. Hamilton lucked up big time.
A true queen would *never* allow some douchebag to move in with her a week after meeting him, and especially not a married douchebag with an infant.
I think she got the bad end of the deal
You must still date your wife. 🙏
great comment
Wow! Great that you asked really tough questions and they were both willing to be with it and answer in a way that shows their imperfect humanity without getting angry or not answering.
I think humanity would be much better off if people were actually honest about all of life, the good and the bad so most people aren't blindsided in relationships and end up thinking that there is something very wrong about themselves when it gets too difficult.
Great interview!!! ♥
This interview was done so well. The back and forth between Laird and Gabi flowed smoothly.
"I'm a big wave rider... we commit!"
*leaves wife and infant daughter for another woman*
tclass99 I mean if it’s not working it’s not gonna help anyone most importantly the child on the way of the parents are miserable and forcing themselves to stay in a toxic, unhappy environment. After a few years I finally understand this. My ex left me when I was 5 months pregnant. At the time I bashed him and though he still has lots of growing up to do - looking back I know he did the right thing bc I was at a too vulnerable spot to let go. We are much happier now and my daughter is number one in all this.
Lizeth Guzman Thats awesome. So long as the child/children are looked after and come first then its a good outcome
Guys come on... he was already separated. Ridiculous
@Jennifer Boehm his DAUGHTER doesnt agree with you
almost too real ! This is so totally different from the norm interview- REAL HONESTY being expressed here !! Right on !!
Great great interview so honest and real I think they’re fantastic couple good to see them showing them real selves
Kudos to them for being so honest about their relationship. I disagree with comments here to the effect that Gabby is necessarily smarter than him. Living passionately does not always look intelligent. But living without passion is always foolish, and it's those that live without passion who judge the most. On the contrary, being good at stuff is intelligent. Laird's good at stuff.
Lmaoo what is this comment even suppose to mean
Sko Bird the people who judge other people should probably be judging themselves more.
@@gu3sswh075 Nah sounds like some bootlicker stuff. I can judge any man that ran out on his wife and baby at home. Am i perfect? Nope. Am i even a good man? I honestly dont know, but atleast I have enough morals to not leave a new born and wife. Scum is what that is. I have fought my father and nearly every uncle. Play dog linebacker in highschool and lost a two year college scholarship for beer. But dang, if i ever did that to my wife, i hope my brother would beat me sick or just shoot me. I would disown him, and we are close, if he did such a thing.
Good god, clearly you're not terribly smart. "Good at stuff"???
Laird is a narcissist: a pathological narcissist. His entire life is about being admired by others, which is the modus operandi of every pathological narcissist like Elon Musk, Steve Jobs, Donald Trump, Kanye West and many more.assholes like them. They live their entire lives driven to achieve just so other people will admire them....
They lack empathy for others (not unlike a psychopath).
They're they worlds' walking douchebags who are entirely self-centered.
.....and it's all because their parents didn't love and take care of them before the age of 5 that their brain development was negatively impacted and warped their personality and moral compass.
We don't "admire" people like this....we feel sorry for them because they have no inner sense of genuine self-worth and they are desperate to cover that up by over-achieving in as a mean to overcompensate for the fact that their parents never loved them. They're entirely selfish and self-serving. There is nothing to admire about being self-serving.
What is admirable and respectable is kindness....altruism....true courage to help others (not the drive to win a surfing competition).....and spending one's life being a genuinely decent human being.
Of course, you may be a narcissist yourself, which is probably why you believe "being good a stuff" is admirable. LOL That sounds like some pathetic world view a narcissist would have. Let me guess, you didin't have a father growing up?
"I've seen tou at your worst times and I still like you, you've seen me at my worst times and you still LOVE me." How telling.
Jameson Cross -- kind of took that differently...she and the interviewer were standing close and she was looking at him and it seemed like she was going to say "I still love you" but felt awkward AF looking into another guy's eyes saying it, so used "like" instead.
Absolutely honest interview, that makes it truly inspiring on both sides. My respect and gratitude for sharing those personal struggles with all of us. We all learn on this process.
We are all children playing adult. What you put out is what you get back. Don’t matter if you’re playing or not. Just something to remember.
did anyone else catch that what she said towards the end about each other , " ive seen him at his lowest and i still LIKE him...while he's seen me at my lowest and still LOVES me "......?? 8:41
You will never get this guy until you see an ocean swell at 50 to 60 feet and understand the balls it takes to come off the top.. Then you will get it.. Go find the greatest athletes in the world and see if they will do it..
Watch any elite boxer or Mma fighter. Bet Laird doesn’t have the “balls” for that.
Ball-ism... who has the biggest balls? who cares?
@@joygernautm6641 BJ Penn surfs and will tell you he wouldn't get out of the boat to surf the waves Laird surfs BLINDFOLDED
Oh, I get this guy. He is *entirely self-serving* and a narcissist jerk who abandoned his wife with a baby (just like his father abandoned him). That's all I need to know about his lack of moral character and commitment.
@@le_th_ lol, he's been married to Gabby for about 20 years now. That's commitment. Seems like your bitter or jealous about something.
"when you are not groomed to be successful" wow what a comment
Love is not a feeling or emotion, those come and go with time, Love is a commitment, remember what the vows say, Their is wisdom in them.
No, love is both, not just the latter. You can have commitment, sure, it “works”. There’s still got to be some underlying sparks still lit and ready to burn bright when such a season calls.
How can it "be over" when you just had a new baby, then just walk out. Wow.
Well he might not have ever wanted to be with the woman long term but was trying to be a good guy and get married, then when given a better opportunity like he says selfishness took over.
He comes off as a narcissist
@@theresamitchell2111 Yes, indeed. Did he marry a guy?
@@brianbaumann5389 That is not the way marriage works there buddy, if it did, then no one would be married for an extended period of time. Marriage is hard. Living with someone else isnt easy. They get sick. They get down on their luck. Once you say those words, only a few things justify breaking it.
Oh wait, the wedlock rate is 70 % in the black community and the nuclear family destroyed, so I guess your theory is working to destroy long term relationships.
I guess he and you never realized marriage isnt for the ADULTS but for the KIDS. if you cant understand that, then grow up there buddy. Its not a far right accusation either. Obama has said the same thing. the experiment has been run. kids do better in every category when they come from an intact family but blah blah blah. if im not talking about money and self gratification, then those like yourself dont listen.
Well you live your life, and when your ticket for judgement day comes, have fun explaining your actions.
@@bornfree8073 Yeah, like once he found true love, he raised his first daughter with his two other children, and been married for 20 yrs now. Maybe you will need to do some 'splain'n on your judgement day. Who made you the righteous man in your own mind? Out spreading garbage you heard on YT, without a clue to the facts.
I respect the fact that he turned his life around by quitting drinking (I did the same so can relate) but I can't wrap my head around abandoning my daughter. In fact, my daughter has kept my marriage together. When you have kids it's not about you anymore it's about your kids and what's best for them.
🤣🤣🤣🤣Falling in love with his Gabby was like catching a big wave.
Naw, he just wanted to get away from his wife and infant (like his own father did). The douchebag never falls too far from the douchebag tree.
It is what it is but do not try to clean it up. You cheat on your wife. You are either married or you are not - there is nothing else. Shows a lack of morality, commitment, and concern for others. Do people really believe he would not do the same thing to Gabby? Has he already stepped out on her?
Two really low life people. He was Married and they had a Newborn baby. This was a selfish decision on Both their parts. He could have left the marriage in a respectful way he owed that to the woman who married him and gave him the gift of a child. They couldn’t wait two or three months until the shock and pain had lessened for his wife and family? Selfishness, they wanted what they wanted it was childish, selfish and hurtful! It also doesn’t show your daughter the right way to be.
So Gabby was like oh your married with a baby, sure you can come move in with me.
Of course, she's a narcissist just like he is. It's always about them boosting their ever-deflating and flailing brittle ego and she felt special by him abandoning his own wife and child, that's just how psychologically and morally fucked up she (and other narcissists like her) are. They are all about "winning" by any means necessary.
Right? Say what????
@@le_th_ that's....about right.
@@motoz30 Sadly, yes.
Yeah maybe she isn’t so smart, must have been some amazing attraction. Most women would be like “what did you just say about being married and a baby too?”
Came here after watching Laird on JRE and what really struck me is the difference of a classic interview and a modern podcast. Graham did a decent job here, don't get me wrong, but the classic interview format, where one person (guest) should be authentic and honest while the other person (interviewer) tries to stay "objective" and keep his own personality out of the conversation as much as he can has just become sooo outdated its barely even watchable anymore.
Interesting observation, but I'm glad both still exist. I really enjoy both from time to time.
Gabby is cool. More about her.
He sounds like a jerk. He’s hasn’t answered one question honestly. He seems very codependent.
As somebody from Hawaii and from the surf community aswell. Alcohol is our biggest problems and you can say most have the personality of an infratry soldier. Our partying brings out the assholes in us. I’ve had sponsors drop me because my partying and low placement in surf competition. Like laird when you start to lose the things we love we can either run or change and I’m going on 3 years sober but 12 yrs out of the surf community. Trust me surfers have the most misunderstood minds because everything is a joke. Just to give you a little insight on most surfers
Thanks I really enjoyed it interview two great people really like Gabby super lady
Hey sweet little baby....I know your vulnerable and need me, but Daddy is going to take off for greener pastures.... we will work this out in 10 years......Everyone who abandons their family for greener pastures use the excuse "it was already over anyway"....
I swear I had just watched the clip where he said he didn't want to be like his step dad or dad who abdonadoned him when he was 1. Yet he abandoned his kid when the kid is 1? Lol
Getting hit with a pipe when you're a kid can create a "Larry". Glad he found a way through that anger.
Did he?
He was already a narcissist before he ever introduced that boy to his mother. Narcissistic Personality Disorder develops in children prior to the age of 5.
Regardless, no child should ever be hit with a pipe and especially not by one of their primary caregivers.
le th Repressed rage and co dependance perhaps, but he is far too caring to be a narcissist.
@@rmoon01 It seems like you don't know much about what happens in the 1st five years of a child's life that turns them into a narcissist and how that shows up in the very tell-tale signs of their behavior as an adult because if you did, you'd be able to recognize it.
@@le_th_ As a matter of fact I do. But what I really want to know is, why the fuck do you care?
Gabby resembles Kirstie Alley
She said she like him and then in the same breath she said he loves her,nice
Lol I noticed that as well. Freudian slip? I wouldn't be surprised if all females felt like this
That irritating laugh laird does after says something... 😑
If that is irritating it you, you better check yourself before you wreck yourself.
His obnoxious laugh is Hilarious
irritating people have irritating laughs ;)
It is a nervous laugh that conceals emotion.
Eristhenes You get it, it’s nothing to do with being a psycho lol. It’s making light of something heavy. Crazy how judgemental these guys are, I think his security over his insecurities is what drives them mad?
People here seem to respect his honesty, but does he really need to laugh about leaving his wife and newborn kid behind?
Its called a 'Gallows laugh'
I totally do this. It’s not because I think it’s inappropriate things are funny it’s more a reaction to awkward or uncomfortable feelings.
He can laugh because he actually parented that child.
He and Gabrielle raised that child - as well as the two children they had together.
Ivan Lendl One of my favorite tennis players!
In another segment of this interview, he talks about having his birth dad walk out on his mom and his stepdad walking out too. He says he knew that he would never be like that. Then he says in this segment that he would never change that he walked out on his child's mother. Sorry, end of me watching this guy. He's his own biggest fan.
Laird and Gabby - come on you two - the two of you make an AWESOME couple, you guys live in paradise - work your shit out and move on....
They did. They’re still married - over 20 years now.
his response is "selfishness" about leaving his wife and child and laughs? WTF?
Maybe it's a protective reaction. I can see that he could be cruel and self-destructive sometimes, at least in the past. He has Interesting strong personality. I hope he hasn't killed or crippled anybody.
He's very straightforward and clearly is at peace with his past and his choices. He has a good relationship with his ex-wife (whom, as he said, has already his ex when he left) and takes proper care of his daughter, so why not laughing about his own honesty now?
Yeah, he sounds like an idiot
He laughs because there's distance from how selfish he had to be at that point in his life. If it happened a month before this interview, he wouldn't have laughed.
It happened a long time ago, so tragic things can be seen as funny (tragedy + timing= comedy).
He doesn't really think that it was funny he left his wife and child, but he was living in a barn and in a bad spot with that relationship...so he jumped ship.
All you arm chair psychologists, hes an alpha, right or wrong, they do what they want
Why do so many couples look like girl/boy versions of each other? 🤯
When you're spending time with someone you like when they laugh- you laugh as well. Since both of you are making same facial expressions over time you get wrinkles on the same places. And since you're spending time together a lot you pick up others traits (laugh, body movement etc).
Something like that
They looked alike way before they were ever married. But yes, I was just about to comment, they both look alike.
You know when they say opposites attract? Maybe after awhile those opposites start to look like each other and things start to click? :P
ANSWER: Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Surely you remember the story of Narcissus who fell in love with his own reflection on the surface of the pond and could not walk away from the pond because he was so busy admiring his own reflection?
That should answer your question, and today they are clinically known as narcissists (and they walk amongst us and look just like you and me but are entirely self-absorbed and all about winning.
Truth.
This guy seriously deserves more credit....... His wife appears to be the intelligent one in the relationship though!!!!! Remember when she played beach volleyball...... Awesome player
Yeah, let's give him credit for abandoning his wife and infant and moving in with some chick he knew for a week. Maybe we should give him a medal of honor. /end sarcasm
@@le_th_ never implied that !!!!! Don't judge someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes !!!!!!!!!! End cliche !!!!!!!!!
@@gregorykillen4564 If you believe that BS that's your business. When I see the obvious behavior and comments of someone who is CLEARLY disordered in their thinking and behavior, I'm going to continue to call it exactly as I see it.
You are the best Dr. Thank you for this.
The smartest decision this man ever made was getting into a relationship with Gabby after knowing her for 8 days and marrying her -- if he had not -- where would he be today -- not in as a good a place as he is -- she is the roots of the tree known as their family - without her in his life he may not be alive or he would be living in a hut, drinking and surfing - she gave him a family life
VERY FEW Celebrities are honest !!! They tell you what you wanna hear.
He is supremely confident, bordering on cocky. He was a heavy drinker and probably a jerk back then, but somehow thought she couldn't do better. Incredible.
I think you misunderstood what he meant by that.
Abandoned a wife and kid for a new piece
“She’s my girl, my lover, I’ll never leave her........unless she gets fat.”
As long as expectations are managed in advance, even that would be acceptable
Kinda interesting that he basically did the same thing to his first wife that his dad did to his mom.
Either they have something most don’t to figure it out like they have or they found the one and only therapist on earth who helped them figure it out.
Girl..., I feel ya. I live with a surfer. 🌊🤣 Super stoked he saw the light. Cheers to life in harmony or trying to. 🤸
She’s so beautiful and talented.
....very true, and also allowed some dude to move in with her after 1st meeting him a week earlier AND he was married with an infant and she knew he abandoned both of them to move across the ocean. She's a narcissist (like most athletes) and lacking in empathy for others as he is.
This is a highly self-serving, selfish, unempathic couple who have spent their lives in pursuit of "winning". Narcissists are not worthy of respect or admiration when you dig below the surface and recognize they're pathetic self-absorbed people without an altruistic bone in their body.
Beauty and talent and shallow pursuits (and I say that as a female who is very talented and beautiful and still recognizes that means absolutely nothing if I don't also have empathy for others and a healthy degree of altruism and being a human who considers how my actions might impact others).
I cannot dispute or criticize her aesthetic beauty or his athletic skills and accomplishments.
Like I tell my wife "you love someone because of and inspite of."
Laird and Gabby How can I explain
when I saw both of you? separate
passing ( now to my luck) in store I worked. everyone contagious said LAIRD is in here! (she's here w/ him.)
My husband , a Malibu surfer was in movies first time I saw him (Gabby)
So, I waited on both of you. Gabby first- later Laird. You two- all these yrs later, I finally LOVE YOU TWO!
Man this is the real marriage example. It’s about getting through the shit and still knowing you can love and respect each other through forgiveness.
"My girl" Laird. That says it all! You're an amazing guy.
Good fucking god, he left his wife and infant and moved in with a stranger a week after he met her. Nothing amazing about him. He's a pathological narcissist and any informed, a half-intelligent person can see that at a glance.
Graham is a great interviewer...
Laird is on the spectrum maybe?
sgtchewy Maybe just an asshole?
@@DUNGEONDRAGONZ very true.
Yes, the narcissistic spectrum. He's a pathological narcissist.
@@zak-a-roo264 nope
Get real! Laird Hamilton spent all his life running waves, does it. He is a surfer, dude, not bright to say the least, he can't run, he can't fight. Follow his advice is you have all day to train. Why accept any advice from someone training 10 hours a day!
Laird is no good for any sport after training all day long. Give us examples of real people that have to work and are excelling at any sport. People that have real lives.
My father walked out on four kids and a wife for another woman. I have no respect for my old man. I can’t look at LH the same anymore
Sad to hear about yur dad doing that Wolfgang. Truly sorry. My earthly Father stuck around and worked his fingers to the bones along my mother and worked through stuff with my mother. How do two people stand at an altar to marry saying they love each other. Start a family. Then bail. Somethings wrong with that. Hamilton should be ashamed of himself to admit he touted infidelity. Adultery. Abandonment because hes enslaved to thinking with his genitals as opposed to staying committed to his vows. How many men and women have done this to each other and have no conscience over those they've hurt and betrayed and the children are hurt the worst. This kind of societal moral breakdown sends self centered messages rippling through those who learn about this stuff and tears the fabric of an otherwise societal need for examples. These two adults need to repent of their wrongs. God forbid. Society will still praise them for their athletic achievements seeing them as good people. Their actions were and are wrong. The need brokenness and humility.
She's a total catch.
Every time I see him talk deep and open up himself he covers with a smile to shake off the heavy subject but his eyes look soo sad while the mouth goes wide up. It's must be a reaction either of the expectation
you can see the whole picture... nice
What it is is a personality disorder: a Cluster B personality disorder and it's called pathological narcissism or Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
That "take for granted" attitude is a killer... big mountain to climb and recover from ...kudos to Laird and Gaby for getting thru that ugliness. Cuz it is UGLY.
Insights here are real bless them both.
Gabrielle, is so beautiful. I am so impressed by her ability to stay so incredibly fit. At 50! Please forgive me if I am wrong but her husband comes off as a bit arrogant and a jerk.
He is an arrogant jerk, and she is no better for allowing a married man with a baby move in with her a week after they met. No decent woman would have anything to do with a man like that.
@@le_th_ And, how dare they stay happy and married for 20 years. I guess they'll just have to live out their misery together.
@@00vTv00 Narcissists don't feel misery, that's what borderlines experience. Narcissists are too busy filling their ever-deflating egos with accomplishments, accolades, and admiration from others to be miserable. It takes a lot of work to do that every day.
From multiple interactions with Laird, he's got mean aloha
Seems honest to me
Well they both seem like very nice people however i reckon “Larry” made sure that Gabby got her karma for taking somebody elses husband 😭 like you never know someone til you live with them, right? I’m surprised at Laird saying that he wouldnt change anything hes done-surely he didn’t include leaving his baby behind?? I understand they he and his first daughter always had a relationship but you think he wouldve known better? Two dads skip out on him. I think it goes to show how negative Familial patterns are liable to be repeated by those who arent made concious of them
Real Humans with focus and SELF ENLIGHTENMENT .... Very cool
wait--so he was married with a child and abandoned his wife for Gabby?
After hearing them both talk, there is no way that marriage works out.
He seems like a good dude but man I cannot stand people who laugh at the end of their sentences like that...
'hey why did you pick up and randomly leave your wife and infant daughter to move in with a random woman'
"uhh selfishness HAHAHAHAHAHA"
i like to hear a psychologist's breakdown of why people do that, it seems almost psychotic to me
LOL
A good dude??? You can NOT be serious? He abandoned a wife....and his own infant....one week after meeting someone, and then moved across the ocean to be with her (keep in mind, he didn't even know her and chose her over his own baby). Is that your bar for "good dude"???
Your subconscious is more intelligent than your conscious brain. Do you know how I know that (and why you don't know that?)?
Your subconscious is telling you to get the fuck away from anyone who laughs like that because they're not "safe" or "healthy" people to be around. Your subconscious brain recognizes that this person is a pathological narcissist who is entirely self-abosurbed and also highly deficient in empathy for others and that he is a danger to you and anyone else who isn't a narcissist (except maybe someone more dangerous like a sociopath, psychopath or malignant narcissist, which is a sociopath with narcissistic, sadistic and paranoid traits).
PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS BRAIN TELLS YOU because it will save your life even when your conscious brain is being duped.
There is a very good reason why you dislike that laughter because it is maniacal laughter by an entirely empathy-deficient human being who you mistaken believe is a "good dude". SPOILER ALERT: decent human being don't abandon their own infant to move across an ocean to move in with a stranger (and you fucking know this already so WTF???)
Take the chopstix out of your eyes and start seeing self-absorbed, self-interested people for what they are.
I mean, this man actually TELLS YOU that he is selfish. He admits his own selfishness is what drove him to do what he does. LISTEN!!!! and PAY ATTENTION!
When people give you the *GIFT* of being honest about who they are....SELFISHNESS....believe them the very first time they tell you and get the hell away.
Better yet, when your subconscious brain send your conscious brain a warning....i.e. something is "off" about this person's laughter and the topic they are laughing about is wildly inappropriate.....GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM THEM BEFORE THEY RUIN YOUR LIFE.
....or prepare yourself to learn a very difficult and (possibly) painful lesson.
I sincerely hope you do not find yourself a few years down the road wishing you had heeded this advice because if that is the case, it means you have had to learn this the hard way (which is how I learned this, and I do not recommend that path if you can avoid it). Best wishes to you~
That's called a coping mechanism
Have always admired these two always!!!!❤️🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
So much to admire, right? He met some hot chick and abandoned his wife and infant a week later and moved across the ocean to live with her. Gotta respect those two. /end sarcasm
Your moral compass is about as warped as they come if you admire that (and I bet you're a narcissist, just like them).
le th Lol ... hey life happens.. many years have past .. maybe you need to go talk to someone for your hang ups!!
@@carmenj5045 Oh, I see you're one of those people who likes to sweep ugly truths ("the past") under the rug as though they're not an indicator of a moral defect in someone's otherwise stable character.
I'm not surprised, especially since you try to turn his moral deficits around to suggest I'm the problem for pointing them out.
My hang ups? LOL So typical....(shift that blame you onto someone else why don't you? Opps, that's exactly what you did LOL)
Do you know what blame-shifting indicates when combined with a desire to sweep ugly truths "under the rug" rather than shining a light on them?
le th Listen .. I’m about done with you , ppl have pasts , make mistakes , he didn’t kill some one .. unfortunately for you what he did wasn’t as your concerned the right thing .. you or any one of us Jew what really went on in his first relationship & who gets this fucking bothered by what he did .. if you go around and judge everyone .. holy shit , you must be bored as hell .. your really wrapped up by what Laird Hamilton & Gabby do.., he has costed you , I didn’t follow their divorce and custody battle did you .. Maybe you should worry about the corruption that’s ruining the world or pollution or animal or kids getting beaten by unfit parents .. anyhow .. lol I hope you can get on with life .. I have worked through my life my problems & I’m sure they all have ., lol wow get fucking real buddy .. this happens in life , most don’t know how their path will be .. pls though.. tell us all how fantastic & “ perfect “ your life is you small minded person , bet we can tell who you vote for and wait you probably don’t wear a mask either .. now , fucking leave me alone you little fucking douch bag ..Get Bent🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾✌🏿✌🏿✌🏿✌🏿✌🏿
le th Again ... Fuck off you goof.. keep shining a light on things that don’t matter to you .. not your problem ..we will go on living our lives
I'm no psychiatrist, but he reminds me of a true narcissist.
Theresa Mitchell... please explain the narcissist comment
My thoughts exactly.
Is that show on netflix?
or is it just in your head?
@@letyvasquez2025 His "head" is clearly knowledgeable and educated, whereas your head seems to be deficient in knowledge and how to properly identify the well-documented behavior, thought patterns and common things narcissists say.
Do you always broadcast your own ignorance by posting evidence of it online?
le th
Only to you sweet cheeks.
Thank you for being one of the elite few who voluntarily utilizes their time effectively only to respond to blatantly moronic responses such as mine.
Keep at it.
You’re gonna go far in life, kid
She is so beautiful. Stunning.
Yes, and with a stunning absence of empathy for others and a stunning ability to allow a married stranger she knew for a week to move in with her right after he abandoned his infant child; a stunning lack of empathy for others, indeed, as well as a stunning degree of self-absorption and self-interest (like most professional athletes).
I really wondered which was my first problem of the day.
His fact he is so motived is also his downfall to not know when to ease up. A narcissist.
MacGruber is real?
Het zijn sterke schouders die de weelde dragen kunnen 🙌🏼👏🙌🏼.
Something is very wrong under the surface
This is Princeville Kauai…I recognize the background. Super neat place to stay.
Gabby reminds me of a guy I went to school with.
She would make a very handsome man with her aesthetic features.
Legend. Insecure people will call him arrogant but he isnt at all. He's confident. He pioneered one of the craziest sports ever so he has every reason to be.
he's both confident and unsure. as we all are. i don't see why having pioneered a crazy sport should be a reason for becoming self-confident.
@@didoview Ummm have you ever done something amazing that you didnt think was possible? I have. When you do it you a) swell with confidence about life, and b) realize your expert and stand up for it. He knows his worth as do I, which is why I recognize where he is coming from. You are cut from a different cloth which is why you dont understand our perspective. Find your worth and stop apologizing for it.
She is an absolute badass
Rotten to the core, allowing a married man she met a week earlier to move in with her knowing he just abandoned his infant child across the ocean.
Yep, we should all aspire to be so "badass" because self-absorption no matter the cost to other (even an infant) is perfectly acceptable. /end sarcasm
Laird's Day:
4:00am. Alarm goes off. It's either Lose Yourself by M&M or Eye of the tiger.
4:05am. Starts 3 hour workout that includes walking to Oahu and back underwater. Holding an enormous boulder.
7:30am. Breakfast. Usually steaks cut from champion Barcelona bulls, in an omelette made entirely of egg whites and testosterone.
7:35am. Takes care of business. By being awesome.
10:00am. Mid morning snack ? Does Laird look like a man that "Snacks". I don't think so.
12:00pm Lunch. Laird ate a four pound steak for breakfast. Laird don't need lunch.
5:00pm. Paddles into 50 ft wave outside his house. Shreds.
5:05pm. Attacked by 15 ft white pointer while paddling back in. Punches shark so hard, the whole species is extinct immediately.
5:10pm. Cooks an amazing, healthy dinner using fresh seafood and vegetables from Kauai.
7:00pm. Drinks one bottle of Pinot Noir.
7:01pm. Makes sweet love to his rich, blonde, hot, intelligent wife.
8:01pm. Yea. For an hour. You read that right.
8:02pm. Drinks second bottle of Pinot Noir. Answers social media questions about him being on the spectrum.
8:05.pm Sleep.
Repeats.
I know I might be wrong about the second half of Laird's day. It was just a joke. Please don't reply angrily. It was all just a joke.
@Jones Jones I prolly would too if I was Laird Hamilton.
The second part was more accurate than the first.
Awesome! Loved it!
wow I think the man conducting the interview must be a psychologist
Damn Laird musta been bangin tens loolololol
That girl / woman is so smart, God...! coming from Joe Rogan show. She is a real Queen...!
Creepy... not sure how to feel. Not someone I would want to be around.
She's not as smart as everyone thinks!! He's a selfish piece of shit !! His laugh gives him away !!! He will pull an OJ on her when she returns the karma and leaves him for younger man !!
That's probably because you're a decent human being.
This guy is about a pathologically selfish as they come. He's an unapologetic narcissist, and he is well aware of it, too, which is how he can cackle about his own selfishness.
....and what kind of loser abandons his own infant one week after meeting someone and moves across the ocean to live with them? ANSWER: a narcissist (or a sociopath or psychopath would also do this).
Good for you for being wise enough to recognize how toxic a human the is.
@@le_th_ bravo well said
@@gregprouse1173 Thanks for your kind comment.
We all have to face the inner demon that lives in our lower selves. Look in the mirror and fin out who you really are
I commend you for being someone who can not only recognize that about yourself, but also post those words publicly for others to see. Few people have that level of insight and willingness to acknowledge it.
@@le_th_ yes indeed. It would be great if more people were willing to face themselves and understand themselves. The world would be much more harmonious. Its kind of lonely being able to see things and not being able to share with others that can understand. :)
What a awesome couple.
I believe the correct word would *narcissistic* couple.
They are both obsessed with winning.
She allowed a married man to move in with her a week after meeting him, knowing he just abandoned his infant across the ocean (and his wife).
Now, if you think being a narcissist is "awesome" you're either uninformed, ignorant about the pathology underlying the disorder, or you may be a narcissist yourself.
I had no idea. Thanks for the info.
