Ойын-сауық

Saying that Christopher Reeve became nice after his accident is an awful thing to say and completely untrue.
Jack O'Halloran was revealing and honest about Christopher Reeve. He talked about things I had never heard before. Extremely interesting interview. Nicely done!
Interesting interview and I like him talking without hesitation. He's right, there will never be another superman like Christopher Reeve. I still got the old poster I got from the Theater's wall (long story how I got it) 😄 Love this interview. Thanks!
This was another great interview! It's crazy to think how long Christopher Reeve's has been gone. You can tell Jack had an incredible amount of respect for him. It was good he had this opportunity to clarify that it was one small moment between them and they were still friends afterwards. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Jack O' Halloran... a man with a boxing record of 34 wins and 21 losses. 21 losses!!! Jack, you were not a great boxer or actor or anything. and here you are judging a great man in Christopher Reeve and blaming his accident on his ego. Its only because of Reeve and the movie Superman that people know who you are.

LOL, I know. He talks like he was fucking Muhammad Ali. He was a palooka at best
Mr. O'Halloran even talks like a tough guy. I wouldn't want to meet him in an alley. He is very open and honest. Another awesome interview Chris. A big thumbs up my friend.
This guy was one of my fave old time Superman villains!! Great interview Chris!👍
Really enjoyed the interview. I was a huge fan of Christopher Reeves and was so sad when he had the accident. It's so hard to think of him being anything but nice to people, he seemed like such a nice guy. You guys are right about him being the best Superman ever 💛
I still remember that unfortunate accident. Very sad indeed. Great interview Chris! as always. Keep safe and keep rocking my friend
At the age of 14 in 1981, the P E teachers at my high school, offered us pupils various choices for our school sporting activities durung the next two years, but while some of these were free, others weren't. I desperately wanted to give the horseriding lessons a go, but my parents couldn't afford to pay for them, so I reluctantly chose swimming instead because that was free. I remember feeling very dusappointed at the time. Then years later, (after hearing about Christopher Reeve's tragic and shocking accident) I realised what a very lucky escape I must have had, as the same thing could easily have happened to me. Horseriding and showjumping are obviously VERY dangerous sports and after hearing about Christopher Reeve's terrible injuries, it frightened the life out of me and to this day, I've NEVER gone within fifty feet of one since. Incidentally, Jack O'Halloran still seems to have a lot of bitter resentment towards Reeve and that he is basically speaking ill of the dead. I feel very strongly that this is disrespectful to his memory. All he really had to say when questioned about this, was that he had a one off disagreement with him, but that he didn't want to criticise a dead man and left it at that, because Reeve is no longer here to answer back and defend himself. Also, if O'Halloran was clearly wrong about whether Reeve wore a helmet and padding during his tragic accident, it does make me wonder if he was deliberately being misleading about other details in the interview, too. That's my take on it, anyway. Others here may have different opinions. Either way, this interview you had with him was very informative and it certainly has enlightened me about O'Halloran's nasty and vindictive character in real life. Thanks for posting this, Chris. Well done.
Great interview .. very honest he was a great superman So sad what happened. Thanks Chris Love your questions and love how you interview. It’s more of a conversation and they open up. Awesome
Another great interview! So tragic what happened with Christopher Reeves and people are people (famous or not) and will always have normal altercations. The media always has a “story to sell” and they take things out of context! Enjoyed listening to this and hearing from someone who worked directly with Reeves.
Very interesting to hear this story I never had heard it before. I loved the part about not hitting him in the face, that made me laugh. Still seemed like there was still some resentment from Jack. He tried to keep things professional- but he did take a couple shots at Chris during the interview.

Yeah, totally. Jack just didn't seem very fond of Reeve at all. Thanks a lot for listening and for the great comment!
That's an awesome interview there! I enjoyed listening to both of you! Thank you for sharing this honest interview with us! :)
Wow, what a unique POV story on this! I remember just how devastating it was to learn of his injury (presumably I guess!) his fall in a horse riding accident. Great interview!
Loved this interview, Chris! I always enjoy your conversations very much. Very interesting people you bring on, too! Thanks for sharing with us. Like #62
That was such an interesting interview! It was short and very Sweet...It's something new I learned. Great job as you always do. Awesome guest and interview! Like👍👍🌲⚘🌲⚘🌲⚘🌲⚘🌲❤❤
Chris you’re doing great. Tragic story that seems almost forgotten. Keep it up man!
I used to love these films when I was growing up and I remember his character. Brilliant interview and great to listen to.
Man I remember when that unfortunate accident happened, crazy. Reeve was an awesome Superman. Great stories by Jack O'Halloran, fantastic interview Mr. Contra. Cheers amigo :)
Another capturing interview, Chris! Thank you. Christopher Reeve is still the best Superman. It's a shame what happened to him. I gave 'Superman Returns' a try not long ago and stopped after about 30 min. Hoping the future Marvel and DC movies shine.
*WOW* great interview! Thank you fro sharing. I liked him a lot.
I remember hearing about Christopher Reeve. So sad. Great interview Chris. I hope you have an awesome thanksgiving 🐼🐾😁
Really great and interesting interview Chris ... so sad what happened!!! Merry Christmas! Best Wishes Angeline

Another really cool interview, dear Chris !!👍89... Thanks for sharing !😘 Have a peaceful Sunday and please, stay safe, my friend🙏 Warm greetings, Arlette
I love this! And it's so true, everyone has fights from time to time. Awesome video!!!
I love your guests! Sometimes the guest are not necessary the very top names ... but this is why it's so refreshing to hear this! I just can't get enough! You had another good talk with Jack!
This is really amazing interview. Interviews so sincere makes him feel more attractive. Good sharing.
So cool too hear about how it went down behind the scenes!
Hey Chris 👊🤩. First time hearing about this incident. News travels much faster nowadays 👨💻👍. I liked all the Superman movies as a kid. Pretty sad tragedy for him. Glad to catch one of your uploads my friend. 👍
Very nice interview! It's sad that it takes a accident to make someone nice to people.
Fascinating interview, Chris. Wow, so cool! I loved the movie and the actors.
So interesting! Thanks for sharing this :) Keep it up! Have a wonderful weekend!
great interview! Love Superman! 👍
You have the coolest interviews. This is way tooo cool! what a cool guy
Very interesting information about the relationship between Christopher and Jack! I enjoyed all the details included in this interview! This guy really loves to talk! :-)) You always have such a way with your guests and you "go with the flow" of their discussions and allow the interview to take on a life of its own. Awesome job, dear Chris (and this dude sounds like a handful)! Ha, ha! Yeah, thanks for the clarification about the helmet; I was pretty sure that Christopher Reeve was wearing a helmet at the time of his accident. I hope that you and your family are staying safe and healthy. All the best to you, Michelle

Great interview, Chris! Very interesting! :)
Wow, I didn’t know anything about this story. A serious illness or injury can really change a person🙏 Nice interview🙂
This is fantastic great interview very interesting to listen to the information shared here .I really found it fascinating great share
Always such insightful stuff Chris! You get to talk to the coolest people!:)
Excellent interview! I love the original Superman. Definitely top 10 best movies of all time and Christopher was the best Superman of them all! Jack is amazing also - when you are the only guy to ever almost defeat Chuck Norris, you know you’re tough! Great job Chris, you got the gift man! I really mean that, you are so good with interviews and letting people tell their stories 😎
Wow Fantastic interview on Superman 👌 Like 💘💋
Ultimate respect for Christopher Reeve....appreciate this interview!
Chris, Great interview man so awesome to hear his side of things. I agree Christopher Reeves did an Amazing job as Superman. I figured it was something small that was over blown big like 40 man hope you have a wonderful week. 👍😀
Great interview, really interesting view that Jack had on Chris.
“Please not in the face” lol. It’s really sad what happened. Thanks for sharing
Great interview 👍👍
It was so sad what happened to Christopher Reeves Great interview Chris
What.. This was one of my favorite movies growing up... Your The Man Chris.. Always a good show man🤘
Oh! Really interesting to listen to Jack. Thanks!
Nice and interesting interview Chris!✨
Interesting interview. I like Superman movies and Christopher Reeve is always my favorite Superman.
Great interview
Hi Chris! Wow this is an interesting interview. I Loved Christopher Reeves as Superman. As a horse person, it broke my heart that he had this accident. Jack brought up a very important point about wearing a helmet when riding...especially when jumping. I did not realize he was not wearing one. Most barns don't let riders jump unless they are wearing one. Great interview as always. 😊🌷🌼

Actually, after this interview I looked it up, and it turns out Reeve was wearing a helmet at the time of the accident, O'Halloran was incorrect about that. I left a correction to that in the description box. Thanks a lot for listening!

Interesting review and content. Thanks for sharing - Jo
quite interesting! keep up the good work!
Nice hearing J.O'H's personal understanding and disliking of Christopher Reeve and how director Donner brought something out of the Superman star that just worked! Wonderful interview, Chris! 👍👍 Cheers! \|/
This was really interesting, illness or an accident can definitely change people's personality. New subscriber here. 👍
I don't think I've ever seen the original superman. This was interesting. Big like!
All of his villains have outlived him. Jack seems like a guy that will sense your bullshit so keep it real and I'm sure you'll get along with him. Treat others kindly, regardless of where you are in life and don't be an asshole.
This is a great share but nothing surprises me stars that think they are indestructible and untouchable. Great listen Chris
Super interesting interview brother
This was so interesting! I love how he said the accident made Christopher Reeves kinder. It's funny how your ego can get in check so quickly after a near miss like that... But it's not case with everyone, unfortunately. Anyway, I loved this short take from the interview!
I'm a big fan of Superman. He's the best Superman for me. An inspiration, thanks for sharing my fren.
OMGoodness I just learned so much😳 I’m in shock a lil
Great interview Chris. Always good to hear a good story you weren't aware of. I dont think superman would have fared well in that battle. Have a great day bro.🇨🇦👍🤘
This is an interview you don't hear everyday. Wow. A lot of layers in here. New here!
Chris Contra - thanks for posting. I read about an altercation in IMDb; I thought it was a false rumor. Then after hearing this, Jack says it's true. I don't know about you, but a person can't just slam someone against a wall and throw them down on the floor, regardless of how much said person goes berserk. What Jack did was assault and battery. If I did that because a guy verbally bashed my dad, and made a scene, and I slammed that guy to the floor, I would get sued. Also, there are 2 sides to every story. I heard Jack's side. I haven't heard Reeve's. And I know we never will (RIP Mr. Reeve). Anyway, I've never heard of any negative criticisms about Christopher Reeve, except from Jack O"Halloran. Everyone says that Chris Reeve was an awesome guy. So, what does that tell you about Jack's credibility? Add to that the fact that he was wrong about the helmet. Chris WAS wearing a helmet. Lastly, I still do have respect for Jack because he played a very strong and scary villain--he ranks up there with General Zod, Darth Vader, Ledger's Joker. I wish Jack would’ve taken on more roles. And just like what everyone says, I agree that Chris Reeve is the BEST Superman ever. Superman 2 and The Dark Knight are my 2 favorite superhero movies of all time. (Sorry, even though Avengers 1 and Ave End Game were phenomenal movies, Supes 2 and TDK will always be my Top 2). Thanks again Mr. Contra!
Interesting interview Chris xx
I can’t help but think Jack O’Halloran would have made a FANTASTIC Edward Teach ( Blackbeard )!!! He was toweringly big and tall, exceedingly smart, and had a PERFECT face for it!!!
I loved Christopher Reeves as Superman. Interesting how people think there is a feud and only one argument in four years. So sad about he's accident. Interesting that O' Halloran said he's personality changed after the accident?! Good share as always. Sending good vibes your way and full support from your friends at POSITIVE MIND DYNAMICS.
I love superman! Christopher Reeves is the only superman. Thank you for sharing this interview. Hope to see you again soo. Keep safe👍😊
We just went to the Superman Museum in Metropolis, IL. So I was excited to see this. I love hearing about all these behind the scene dirt!!!! To me Christopher Reeves was the best Superman by far. So crazy that Superman became paralyzed.
Sounds like an old mean grudge told in a "kind" way. Or maybe he's just telling the truth (or his truth) without any restrain. But the whole comments on the accident are disrespectful, you never know what really caused the accident and I doubt that an helmet would stop the shock on the spine, it just protects the skull. Anyway it's very low to say that even if he means it.
Cool interview. I never heard his speaking voice. I just knew him from Superman and he scared me as a kid.. haha
*This dude is cool. Great boxer and and done some awesome films!*
I love how straightforward he was- good personalities, good interview!
wow! I think my biggest fear in anything is getting a life changing injury! I deff never heard of this story! nice sharing :)
Interesting perspective that Jack had of Christopher. I remember 1995 the year of the accident. It shocked the world.
Rofl! - "Not the face!" It's really sad to hear what happened to Christopher Reeve, though. I didn't know about the accident. :-( I just read a bit and saw that he did a lot of good and influential work for people with spinal injuries after that. Happy he survived the fall!
