Rest in peace, Grizzly Adams.
One of my favorite childhood memories with my grandfather was watching that show.
-
Ah man I loved that show as a kiddo.
And what the heck why are all these great people dying, we have surpassed the standard "in threes" now its just getting creepy.
-
So did Alan Rickman and Celine Dion's husband.
-
Every week I could not wait for his show to come on. As a boy the world stopped for me during that time. The theme song will always have a special place in my heart.
-
This is worthy of a bump. All I ever wanted to do as a boy was to grow up and live like Grizzly Adams.

R.I.P Mr. Haggerty....Great show, I loved it, If I remember right Dan was not an actor, he was an animal trainer with the good ole movie star good looks. Does anybody know if he was the trainer of Gentle Ben also :dunno:
-
So we are all lamenting the loss of a man who portrayed an accused murderer who ran away and hid in the hills instead of facing the music and having his day in court. :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: the good ol days aren't so good when you break it down.

He wasn't the trainer from what I was told, but think he had part ownership. Ben was actually a sow. It died a few years ago and is buried by some old growth firs overlooking the Dungeness River. Have heard it was the oldest brown bear known of.

There was more to it then that though,He felt he had no choice,He knew he didn't commit the crime and he knew the only person that could or would prove his innocence was dead.He left his own daughter behind so she could have a better life.If he would have stayed they would have hung him.Thats why after he met Mad Jack (Denver pyle)Mad Jack several times had to stop him from going down and just turning himself in. :twocents:

Just saying how many here would support this action today? Just trying to make people think a little. Doesn't mean I didn't like the show as I said I wanted to be the other guy. :chuckle: :chuckle:

Loved that show when I was a kid. Rest in Peace Mr. Haggerty.

probably a good thing he died. Poor man would be sick at the *censored* on TV now. Kardashians WTF. I always was eager to watch an episode.

Ive ran into a couple "outlaws" hiding out from the law....one beat a cop for being "rude"...beat him with a 2x4 if I remember....he was literally one of the nicest people I've met in the back country...tried cooking us bacon and eggs while we were visiting...very nice man
The next guy was a total ghost, never actually met him, but I came close a few times...he had it made...sob stole my canoe once...would be interesting to know his story

CHILD SUPPORT :peep:
SORRY COULDN'T HELP MYSELF. :chuckle:

I kinda have beard envy too.
Not gonna lie.
-
I just remember him being on "Battle of The Network Stars" :chuckle: And when it was his turn to sit on the little platform for the dunk tank segment ...he could wiggle his man boobs :tung: Whatever chick that was in line to throw the softball to knock him off couldnt stop laughing.
Good times.

Back in the day when they would film at what is now the Olympic game farm they would get gentle Ben to rip cabins down by putting a blue berry pie inside and then locking it up, he would slowly and methodically rip the cabin down, my mama got to work with Dan haggerty a couple times when she worked for the game farm, she said he was a really guy and treated everyone like you were a regular friend..
