Very cool video Dave, I really enjoyed it. I remember in 1970 or so I was about 10 years old my mom brought home a paperback version of the Guinness book of world records. I just remember being in awe of Robert Wadlows picture of him standing next to people who barely reached his waist. I can’t remember is sandy was in the book or not but she may have been. It’s fascinating.to see where they are buried. Good job Dave and see you on the next adventure, God bless.

Thanks for leaving a kind comment. I think Sandy said she is in the book. I remember it too. I was 11 in 1970.

I meant to add that it was pretty heartbreaking to hear Sandy say her love life was zero, ad she had never been on a date. Poor lady. She seemed so sweet.

I grew up in Portsmouth Ohio in the 70s. My mom watched Bob Braun everyday. He would raise money for kids at Christmas time with the Ruth Lyons Christmas Fund.

Good to hear. I'm edited Heimlich and others this week. This trip went perfectly and every step was right on time. It was good to meet subs, but all but Fred was camera-shy. Headstones above ground caught hunting time in half.

I remember as kid reading about Robert in the Guinness Book of World Records. Poor Sandra Allen! She certainly had a good attitude in front of the camera. I can only imagine her heart break from childhood, teenage years and as an adult. Proctor and Gamble is not something you hear about anymore.

Great video. One small correction. You meant to talk about Powel Crosley, Jr., who died in 1961. But you showed the foot stone of his father, which is a few feet from the correct one.
