my fam got 3 of his paintings

[Hapshepsut87]

Really? And how are it? How your fam got this painting?

I supose that get a Johnny`picture is very difficult... he personally knew Johnny?

[Hapshepsut87]

Yes, it`s a good place, but I'd like it to be updated more often.

Its a real shame that there's no known recordings of the "sawing the man in half" trick he and Robert (and the magician and dwarf of course) did. I would love to have seen that, seems like it would have been a hoot

[Hapshepsut87]

The site "Johnny Eck Museum" there are some photographs that could be about that trick in the "magic", and there is a picture of the midget who played his "legs" in the "photographs" and "friend of ".

[GrimsClockwork]

Oh sure I've seen those, that's such a great site isn't it.

Nice video but it gets cut off at the end :(

Or is that a sly tribute to Johnny? ;)

[GoddessOfCats]

You know, he's actually a very handsome man. I'd marry him!

Happy 100th birthday Johnny!

how did he pee



[scojoseattle]

All right you can't fool me! Where are all the real UTube commenters?? This couldn't be YT with HUMANISTIC AND COMPASSIONATE COMMENTS! Where are all the normal a-holes who would say ignorant things about unfortunate people typical of the inbred rednecks of the US?? Is someone holding them all for ransom for a year's supply of Copenhagen, Humpback straights and Schmidt animal beer? Mr Johnny was also a musician, painter, and photographer!

Peace and Blessings to all you kind folk!

he was cute ^^

[joeyvader]

I have a huge tat of Johnny on my right shoulder!!! It's the pic of him, head-on, standing on one hand on a stool...

[Bobzeaux]

"He probably would have had a wonderful career as a news anchor..."

And he'd wrap up every show by bidding the television audience at home good night, then non-chalantly walk on the table offscreen. *lol*

Does anyone know if the Eck twins' magic trick was ever caught on film?

[ralucagymnast]

Joihnny was amazing; I love his one-armed handstands! That takes A LOT of strength and balance, even for someone like Johnny, who didnt have the added weight of the lower body. Remarkable man.
