It strikes me that Dr. Kevorkian was a unique, amazing, beautifully complex person. I had tears in my eyes when I learned of his death. My CZcams icon is a cartoon drawing of him.
I don't know why people give this guy such a hard time. His views on euthanasia are spot on, he doesn't force anyone to do anything they haven't explicitly asked for.
Life doesn't suck, society sucks! If you believe in a god ,imagine what he/she thinks about this noble project called life taken over by mans greed for money. Just imagine how it would be if there was no greed....imagine!
@mphandel - Lessee. If I'm god, and I have a choice between the following two people, which one's it gonna be? Person # 1 -- Ended the excruciating pain and suffering for over a hundred people while having the courage and strength to be unyielding in what is right in spite of tremendous adversity and loss, while never profiting one dime. Person # 2 -- Some guy who comes on CZcams posting hateful slurs and claiming to have all the answers about death and god. Hmm. Which way would you go?
I think its time for Jack to practice his art on himself I think there should be a vetting process in medical schools so individuals like Mr. Kevorkian can be picked out and send to study political science or any other nonessential subject but this man reminds me of Ted Kaczynski [the Unabomber] or even Dick Cheney ... This funky mad indevidal was a doctor? last time I checked doctors save life taking life is left for the executioner 5***** for your video
@silencetraitors - Yes, I did come on strong with my argument -- there is no fucking way he (or you) can tell me what happens when a person dies. So there. There's my argument. And I win by a landslide. Hahahahahahahahaha :)
What I don't get is why Jack Kevorkian wishes he'd never been born and yet he keeps living. I think he is tragically misunderstood in many ways, but his comments about not wanting to have been born confuse even me.
@silencetraitors - haha yeah I "got owned" by some asshole on the internet who claims to know what exists in the afterlife. What should I do? How do I recover from this? I feel so depressed and sad. [hysterical laughter]
"one could be happy only when he realizes that the aim of life is not to be happy"
so profound words

Wow, still here after all these years. Dr. Kevorkian was amazing- flaws and all.
A very wise man. R I P
All he is saying is give us a choice. The older I get the more I worry (like Jack) that I may not have a choice when I most need it.
This man speaks the ultimate truth - who knows why we are here and where we go when we die.
much respect. RIP.
RIP sir, respect
he needs to write a book, hes a fucking genius!!!
rest in peace ...
This is video is amazing! It's a deep look into a real man. Talking about life and death in real and subtle terms.
The man
Awesome.
When you're young, you go liberal.
When you're old, you go conservative.
And when you're dead, you go green.
Dr. Kevorkian is an aging hippie. XD
It's a great regret his was a hand I never got to shake.
R.I.P. There's no license plate on that thing though.
LoL... Good Ol Dr. Death goin green
smart man
Jack: I wouldn't drive on the highway with this thing
Interviewer: Yeah that would be SUICIDE!
@MsHoppytoad Even though I never met him I still feel so sad that he's gone. The world lost an incredible mind.
I'd love to pick Kevorkian's brain
God bless dr. Kevorkian and gives him death without suffering!
he's my idol
Why isn't there the option to reply to other comments anymore?
@MrBeaterbox He's great!
@getorphan - And to what 'contradictions' are you referring
What was the name he gave at 4:09?
Arthur Schopenhauer, German philosopher.
@mphandel - And what does that mean
@marvelousmarv89 He wrote three.

@TranshumanCyborg Me too. Hopefully his Hepatitis C won't do him in before I get the chance!

@thelyanwe Actually he said suicide

Kevorkian is so right. People have invented religions and stuff because they are too weak. Paradises and stuff.
