Man. I love you. Seriously. Glad you made it.
I love that a heart attack doesn’t keep this man from talking for 20 minutes. Love you Kevin!
Considering you had a MASSIVE heart attack you look amazingly well. Good job hospital staff and Kevin you're a husband, father and have a multitude of loyal fans so please get some rest and take care of yourself. Much love from a Welsh view askew fan

Never commented on your stuff before. But I've been a fan since Dogma and wanted you to know that I think you're one of the good guys. Stay well.
Has a massive heart attack. STILL MANAGES TO RECORD A VIDEO WITH ENTHUSIASM AND WIT. Legend! Still rocks the hat whatever the situation 💪🏻 get well soon Kevin! Safe to say we’re all wishing you well!
I don't want to live in a world without Kevin Smith
Wish I would have commented sooner , Mr Smith . So glad that you are recovering . The world has lost enough laughter. Bless you and your family. Take care.
I feel like I have to check in with Kevin Smith every day online. So glad you are still with us!

You sir are an inspiration. Friggen nearly died and you're still seeing the brightest side of life. Glad to hear you are ok, hope you have a speedy recovery!
Glad you are still with us man. Thanks for all the good times you shared with me through you work and looking forward to many more. You still around doing cameos in your 90s could only make the world a better place!
Glad you’re still with us, Kev! Old school fan who was a Video Store jockey when “Clerks” came out, and the World will continue to be a better place with you in it.
Shit dude, please don't die. You're one of my favorite people.
Dude, you were there for me since i rented Clerks on VHS in 1994. Love ya bud. Be well.

Glad Kevin Smith is Still Alive Today After The Heart Attack and This Story is Amazing From One of My Most Respected Film Directors!
Dear Kevin, you're a kind and sensitive soul with a big heart (and a big mouth) that has always told the truth, even to your own detriment within the industry. Your stories on stage have always kept me laughing, entertained and enlightened, while your films are full of life and laughs and made with love. Keep ticking along, Kevin. There are many great years ahead of you. Not just in terms of the next evolution of your filmmaking career (which I believe will be truly great whatever it may be) but just in terms of your family and friends - watching your daughter grow-up into adulthood and get married or start her big career. Growing old with your close friends and still laughing about the same crazy shit you always have. Putting your positivity and creativity out into the world and inspiring your fans (and even the unconverted) with your often self-deprecating, always passionate, sometimes soul searching words of wisdom. You're one of the good ones and we need more people like you in the world. As Arnie once said, 'Stick around.' Lots of love to you. Survive. xxxxx
I'm a silent fan (never commented, wrote, tweeted, been to a live show) but I want you to know, Kevin, that you're an actual part of my life - you're my brother - and I love you sincerely. Please get better and stay better. The world is better with you in it. :')

Kevin is so laid back and down to earth, I pray he stays around for a long time because I believe he has so much more to give us and his best is yet to come.If anyone is this buisness deserves great things it's him
Glad you're still alive and kickin' man. Always inspired by your humility and introspection. It reaches up through our groins to all our hearts.
“Bro you take my underwear off i swear to god I’ll have another heartattack” lmfao 😂😭 I love Kevin Smith so much
Hang on till infinity war please, recover...remember its a great time to be alive
I think we as Kevin's fans are obviously relieved he's ok but the rest of the world got to see what a Wonderful Soul he has. We love you Bro!!!
I’m overjoyed that you’re still with us Kevin. You’ve brought so much light and love and laughter to so many people’s hearts. We all hope you stay with us for many years to come. And never doubt how much you are loved. You’re truly one of the greatest humans in this fantastical business we call Show.
I'm glad your still here bc your daughter and wife still needs you.

The force is strong with Kevin
Kevin, all the positive energy you've pumped into the universe has come back. Example:. How many times did you save Jay by getting him in rehab and taking care of him so that eventually he meets Jordan. Then in your moment of need, who is there? Jordan. The positivity you have sowed is amazing. Keep adding to that big bucket of win that is your life, because you've made a giant impact on mine with countless movies I could lose myself in , countless books and countless podcasts to get me through boring parts of my day. So in closing , when that ferry man came that day, the immortal words of Silent Bob had power....."No Ticket!". Thank you for everything you've given us Kevin. Here's to many more years of awesome.

Derrick Gott very very VERY well put sir! I feel exactly the same as you and left a similar post on here but very good yo! It makes you wonder, what the world would be like if Bob Dylan or civil rights leaders such as MLK Jr was never here, or Muhammed Ali, or revolutionary guys like Che Guevera, & John Lennon, even Tupac Shakur was never here. Kev-dog belongs in this category imo. While so different from each other, they were all so beyond passionate in their craft, beliefs and fought for them no matter what the critical consequences were and it's for that reason that, people cannot turn away from his brilliance and LISTEN. Especially with a voice that interprets to, & speaks to several generations. My point is, we need Kevin Smith. He might not think so and disagree but we all know that if Kev-Dog weren't around there would be a significant difference in our world. Sure maybe a small significance but a big enough impact in my life. So hopefully he sticks around reading & sharing from his book of geekdom and continues to make us smile

One thing I've learned over my half century on this earth is that it's exceedingly hard to give more love than you get back. Kevin Smith is about nothing but love, so the reaction he got surprises me not at all. There aren't enough like him in the world.
Best wishes Kevin, thanks for sharing.
The Story Kevin Smith Tells is Very Touching In My Mind Glad He's Still Alive!
All the best, Kev. Also, it goes to show you: The most direct way to a man's heart is through the groin.

Hey Kevin. Not sure if you actually read these; but Im going to be one of those weirdos who shares too much publicly. I'm 40 and survived a massive heart attack 9 months ago. My occlusion was in the RDA though. Either way; the experience is crazy and the angio and stent saved my life too. I also felt hella weird having my groin shaved - my cardiologist ended up using the artery in my arm in the end. The good news i try and concentrate on is that I'm here for my daughter.( I always think it's weird when people pour out to strangers but...) I went through the same battle and i want to encourage you to talk about it. It's refreshing to hear someone else say they felt the same things I felt and you might save someone's life by talking about how subtle the symptoms can be (except that profuse sweating that was terrible) I remember telling one of my friends that I was ok if I didn't make it; the lack of nervousness about dying was strange. The morphine might have had something to do with that. I'm rambling. Either way there's a lot of good work left for you to do! Good luck with your recovery and from a fan and fellow survivor; take the pills and follow the Drs orders. You have a lot of time left!
Thanks for posting this; I wish you a full and fast recovery.
World is not ready to lose you sir! You have so much to offer along with so much to experience! Glad you’re feeling better! Snoochie Boochies !
Praying for you brother
Hope you get better!
Kevin, I love everything you do and wish you a speedy recovery.
Only Kevin Smith could make me laugh and tear up during a vlog. You're a wonderful person and I'm very glad that you survived and are recovering. The world needs people like you to bring us great stories and laughter.
You can't die! YOU STILL NEED TO SEE INFINITY WAR! Glad you're not dead, man.

Good to see your on the mend and haven't lost that sense of humor that made me a fan.
Have a speedy recovery, man. ✊
I cried. Seriously cried like a little kid when I heard the news. Hope you stay well.
Proud of you Kevin, you're awesome man. I'm grateful you're still with us. Thank you for adding so much value to us.
My world has been forever changed by you and would not be the same without you. Thanks for fighting on.
Hey Kevin, I’m so happy you’re ok. I’m 2 years older than you and I refuse to live in a world where you get to check out before me! You have been a giant inspiration to me and you are without a doubt the reason why I continue to follow and chase down my dreams. You are the only celebrity I’ve yet to encounter that seems to remain completely accessible. You’re down to earthy-ness combined with your sense of humour and gift at communicating with others continues to astonish and inspire me. So thank you so much for staying true to yourself and spreading the messages to everyone that if you want it, just go get it. I love you man, please don’t scare the shit out of me like this again, if I felt the way I did when I heard the news of your heart attack I can only imagine how your family felt. Besides, I have a question I plan on asking you whenever you get around to a Q&A in the Montreal area. So stay healthy and come visit. Much love.
I'm so fucking happy that you're ok, Kevin.
I know the weirdness of negotiating with doctors in the midst of medical crises all too well. "I get that this is serious, but personal space! Can't I just sedate myself? WALK ME THROUGH THE PROCESS." I'm so relieved you're doing so well. I know we've never met, but I feel like I can breathe now.
Thank you, Kevin. Stay strong and get better.
Kevin Smith is still alive... Best News Ever.....Get well soon...
I was laughing so hard when you said, Not after DOGMA.... what a great movie. Dude you are an ICON. Take care we need ya man. All the best.
I almost had a heart attack while searching this out, making sure you were ok. Love you Kevin!
So good to see you up and about. Godspeed and recover!
Take care of yourself, Kevin. A world without Kevin Smith would be a sad world, indeed. We all love you, brother!
As a 47 year old fan of your work, I'm glad you are still with us, and in recovery. Take care, man :)

“This should be agony. I should be a mass of aching muscle - broken, spent, unable to move. And, were I an older man, I surely would ... ... but I'm a man of thirty - of twenty again. The rain on my chest is a baptism - I'm born again ... ” ― Frank Miller, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns Seems like a good quote for a batman fan.
Hey Kevin! I'm sending all my prayers and well wishes for your speedy recovery. I know you said that it's been one hell of a ride so far. But YOUR ride is far from over! All of your best twists, turns, dips, loops, flips, and corkscrews are yet to come! I want to thank you for all the years of enjoyable hilarious, films, and entertaining live talks, so comical and poignant at the same time. Through your character Silent Bob, you've managed to communicate VOLUMES of valuable things, especially when compared to self-important people who cannot seem to stop talking without first thinking about what they're going to say. Ironically, your verbose and highly entertaining stand up talks are every bit as enjoyable... every bit as funny, interesting, engaging, and poignant as Silent Bob managed to be while saying virtually nothing. As you face this latest hurdle in your life, I see all the humor, self-deprecating humility, and bravery that has typified who you are to so many of us, your fans. We are going to look forward to enjoying those same qualities in you for many, many years to come. We love you, brother. And May The Force Be With You.
So glad you made it through. You and your work have had such a profound effect on my life. Very happy you get to continue your journey.
No force ghost glowie for you yet mate, your powers are needed too much here. Heal quick & look after yourself!

Kevin, I met you and Jay back in the late 90s. This was right after Clerks. You guys were touring colleges and whatnot and I opened up for you as the DJ. You guys were very very cool back then and you are still some of the most down to earth dudes I can think of. Glad to see you doing okay man! Rock on!
"I'm that guy now." That hit me man. I felt that after my diagnosis with ulcerative colitis a couple years ago. It's a new life my friend! We didn't ask for it but as you said, it's the cards we were dealt. Someone told me a few days back that I had a real positive outlook about it, and I said well yeah NOW, but I've been through the initial dark period. After that you gotta move on, anything else is just wasting time that you now know is precious. Live man, live well!
I’m glad this turned out well for you. Your absence in the world eoukd leave a sad hole. To this day, whenever I’m in a funk or just feeling down, your Jin Peters story is an absolute grantees pick-me-up and laugh-getter. And this past week, I’ve been listening to your Burton/Schumacher Batman commentaries and they just put me in a great mood, because you echo so many of the exact things I think and feel about these first four movies. So thank you for the laughs and entertainment, in whatever form (movies, podcasts, movie commentaries, etc.). I wish you all the best.

Just another testament to this man’s spirit. He has a massive heart attack, and survives. Two days later he’s letting us, his fan base know he’s gonna be alright. I have no doubt that he’ll make this a new story to share on stage. This world would surely be a much darker place without you, Sir. Get well real soon, Mr. Smith!
So glad to hear you're on the mend, be safe, much love all the way from Tasmania.
Thank you for sharing this experience and thank God you survived! Prayers and positive thoughts coming your way!
