I have the deepest respect for Jonathan. He has been a wonderful actor, not just in Dark Shadows. A wonderful human being. Don't go dumping on this posting because for those of us who did not attend, it's much nicer to see that he was alright as opposed to merely hearing that he had fallen. To srm818, thanks for the post as there are many fans who are just happy to see Jonathan and you at least answered with this video some of the rumors that are running around.

[srm818]

Thanks, yeah I'm a big fan of Dark Shadows, hence why I was there. I just posted this to document what happened. I was suprised by all the negative backlash I had gotten over this video.

This video is very dispectful to Jonathan.  To post it is in very bad taste as are the childish comments left in reply to Nancy. I would suggest you all read a little Emily Post(?).

[srm818]

This is just a record of what happened. It wasn't like I added in Benny Hill music, or sped up or slowed down the footage. As for Nancy, she's way out of line, so any negative comments she gets is warranted.

She's a writer and she is broke!

[cassandracollins]

It just amazes me how some people love to speak on the "behalf" of celebs. Is it REALLY about Frid or you looking important for scolding srm818?

[Shivasavasana]

Why the hell post this?! Why focus on his faults, instead of celebrating his great talent and class? The man is pushing 90 years old, at that age no one is perfect. If you make it to his age, you'll never be half the man Frid is. At least he's still going out and living life. Show some f@cking respect!

[SecretWife56]

He is OK! Thank Goddess! No sarcasm intended, but at that age a fall is doubly scary due to the possibility of a broken hip! I have MS and bad balance so worry about the possibility of falls!

[Xombiegrl]

That made me cry!! He was my first crush. Now I'm 50 and I still love him soooooo much! 

[MrOgthug]

why did u show this???

[mrweirdlygruesome]

Every time i view this I cry..So sad...

[MysticLady2011]

Jonathan shows us once again why we love him.

I have mixed feelings about the posting a video such as this , on the one hand there is the supposed "right to know" aspect, but then there is the supposed "right to dignity" which is not without merit.

I side on the right to view but after having watched I feel ashamed somehow and wanted to crawl under a rock somewhere.... Sophia @ the David Henesy YT Page.

Poor Jonathan, I hope Mr. Frid was OK.

[4freespeech]

As long as people insist on wheeling out ancient fossilized heroes

of their childhood just to comfort themselves stuff like this will happen.

PEOPLE GROW OLD AND DIE- EVEN US BABY-BOOMERS for whom

so many believed YOUTH was the ULTIMATE GOAL.

Remember the slogans of the 60s?

"Live fast, die young and leave a beautiful corpse."

"Never trust anyone over 40."

Dark Shadows was a goofy afternoon soap-opera that

featured a vampire as its star instead of a Doctor or

business tycoon.

I appreciate the fans adoration and love for Johnathon. I am glad that he is okay. Mr.Frid has alwya had grace and dignity.
