    I'm from northwest Indiana and my dad took me to see James Dean's grave a couple of times. You're bringing back some fun memories for me of my dad. My dad looked like a red-headed James Dean, dimples and all. Thank you for this video and all you and Trey do!

    Fairmount is beyond charming. I absolutely melted seeing his home, made all the more beautiful against the sunset sky. I've never had the pleasure to see it in person, but it already feels like home. I can easily imagine spending holidays there or even just casual nights. The smell of freshly baked goods cooling in the kitchen, the wonderful crisp Fall and Winter breezes. Cannot begin to express how happy I am that you and Trey had this experience and that you got to connect with one of James' relatives. I am so elated that after all these years it's still in the family.
    If I'm wrong then please feel free to correct me, but about 15yrs ago I vaguely recall something about James leaving his handprints in cement in a garage or at some home he had. I always thought it was this one, because my fuzzy memory places it at a white house and the prints are against a wall. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

    • @SpaGuy
      @SpaGuy  Před rokem +1

    You and I are about the same age. I've been a fan of Elvis all my life. I have loved all your videos. Wouldn't say I'm a huge fan of James Dean, but this may be my favorite video you have done! From the video of the funeral home, the then and now cemetery. Which I love seeing before and after pictures. Meeting his first cousin. And he was exactly how you would hope he would be. To you guys, walking into a treasure in the farm. Just awesome. Love, love the video. Thank you!

    Thank you Spa Guy and Trey for this great video .
    We lived in a town Up State New York ,on my way to work I would pass everyday a big beautiful farm with a big barn and on the side of the barn there is a very large painting of James Dean and Elvis and
    I always would wonder why James Dean.
    Well! By You filming the farm where J.D. lived in
    I guess it explains why a farm would have the painting of
    James Dean.
    Obviously, He is associated with a farm being that he grew up in one.
    Furthermore, so many times we see something odd that we don’t know why.
    However,by watching your videos Spa Guy we find answers to our questions.
    Thank you!
    Arrivederci!

    Omg thank you for showing what they did for jimmy’s stage! I didn’t know they actually did that! Can’t wait to go there! I appreciate your video so so so so much! I live near James deans garage apartment in Hollywood hills and I went there last night to say hello and speed around in my convertible around his favorite places. James was so ahead of his time. And truly treated people like Jesus Christ would… he befriended the friendless.. and loved the unlovable. This part of his “toxic macho American male” image isn’t discussed enough. He hated.. so much of what fairmont stood for.. this is lost too…

      By tearing the building down.. it’s surely saved someone’s life.. as it want safe and people went into it abandoned. Would have taken at least 50 million too repair it. Surely that money would benefit something else jimmy had passion for like equality for Jewish people.. African Americans.. and the community he was apart of the gay community.
