No picture of Jim Henson can make me sad. That man did more good and touched more lives than most of us could do collectively. I will probably die not having contributed anything to the progression of human life and that is what I would call sad.

By 2 a.m. on May 15, 1990 he was having trouble breathing and began coughing up blood. He suggested to Jane that he might be dying, but did not want to bother going to the hospital. She later told People Magazine that it was likely due to his desire not to be a bother to people.

Damn, man.

Damn...

Now that's someone who will always be remembered....what time does Sesame Street come on?

The Lovers, the Dreamers, and Jim.

During a family vacation at Disney World my dad noticed that Jim Henson was having breakfast a few tables away from us. The restaurant was virtually empty and my dad told us to go ask for his autograph. I was about 8 and my sister 12, we were both to shy to go and ask him and just sat there feeling bashful. It wasn't but a few months later that he died.

Thanks a lot dad!

I always remember seeing this magazine cover as a kid after Henson passed and it always stuck with me as one of the saddest pictures I'd ever seen.

There's also Joe McNally's version for the cover of Life.

No, the saddest photo is the one taken at Disneyworld with Alice in Wonderland holding hands with the little girl who had cancer who died shortly after.

Actually, this is a little disturbing when you start to think about it.

OK, I teared up a little.

Sad Kermit comes to mind...

It's sad in a very happy way.
Or maybe happy in a sad way.
I can't quite decide.

bleclere · 2 years

There's a nice statue of him and Kermit on a bench in front of the U of MD student union. Here.

[deleted] · 2 years

Watched the Muppet movie on the plane the other day.

Why did Kermit leave the swamp he loved?

"To make millions of people happy"

Jim succeeded in that goal as well.

It's amazing how close you can grow to a fella when he has his hand up your ass for 20 years.

This makes me want to cry. Poor Kermie lost his best friend. Jim Henson was a great life taken too soon.

A very sad picture, and all your comments are enough to bring me to tears.

Frank Ox had some great things to say about his friend. It's a long video but you need to watch to the end.

I have never watch sesame street, but every time i see the funeral for Jim Henson, it brings a tear to my eye. Just knowing that a man could bring so much joy to so many people gives me a bit more hope that our childen will be raised more educated for him. I did watch Fraggle Rock though and enjoyed it so much.

Capolan · 2 years

wow...that actually made me sad. I need to go take more medication now.

sirtomgravel · 2 years

I saw a magazine cover of Henson after he had passed. It was on a rack in the supermarket. I had no idea he had died. I sobbed in the aisle.

OptimisticPrime · 2 years

We have a statue of him outside of our Student Union at the University of Maryland. Pretty amazing.

turkourjurbs · 2 years

Rock solid proof that there is no God. What possible reason could there be for a man like this to go so early? Dick Cheney's still around and a man that made millions cry laughing gets the short end of the stick. God wanted Muppets I guess.

Jim Henson was a hippie?

lamest_remarks_ever · 2 years

The screenwriter Henson that awed,
Had perversions extensive and broad,
He oft put his hand in,
His anuran companion,
(I'm saying he fisted a frog!)

chka · 2 years

That's some extreme fisting...

xchokeholdx · 2 years

Here is something to cheer you all up a little.

if you listen closely, you can hear Jim losing it a little (giggling)..

the end though will make you feel all soft and fuzzy inside.. go hug something!

It saddens me that he died 2 weeks before I was born. I've seen the shows he's done and I have learned a lot from watching his creations. But I will never know what it was like to walk this earth with Jim Henson. :(

safehome · 2 years

I wonder how many years of therapy it would take to forget that some guy had his hand up your ass for the majority of your life.

eternalkerri · 2 years

It is sad that Kermit has to revisit emotionally the sexual violations he was subject to on a regular basis....

Yeah, horrible joke I know, but it keeps me from thinking of how much I really miss the old Muppet movies...heh, I just discovered that Firefox spellchecker reminds you that Muppet is a proper noun and deserves the respect of the capitol M.

[deleted] · 2 years

I have been... and always shall be... your friend.

I've done some looking around and despite my best efforts I've yet to find a larger picture I cannot - if someone has or can dig up a link that'd be awesome, my fiance and I would love to print and frame this :x

shiny_brine · 2 years

His funeral was "an epic and almost unbearably moving event." That's not too high to aim for as funerals go.

The Street was the only thing my mom would let me watch on TV. Of course the only other options were Mr. Rogers, ZOOM and The Electric Co., and that was just to wild back in the day.
