@@weirdo5555 YOU ARE SCANDALOUS. After their Divorce, DiMaggio underwent therapy, stopped drinking alcohol, and took up other interests beyond baseball. He and Marilyn remained close friends after her marriage to Arthur Miller ended. They read poetry together and he was always there for her. *_He did Not Beat her and treated her kindly._* She joined him in Florida where where he was a batting coach for the Yankees. They reconciled and a few days before he was just about to ask her to remarry him she was found Dead which Devastated Joe DiMaggio.
@@TheBrownIsland Marilyn said she wasn't going to remarry him plus she was dating someone at the time. She was actually annoyed by him because he kept trying to get back together with her and she didn't want to she even started ignoring his phone calls
@@weirdo5555 After they divorced they remaind friend and Joe helped her in her deepest hours of need. Marilyn always knew she could turn to Joe for help. He changed. So if Marilyn Monroe, who cut her ties with many friends and associates who let her down over the years, kept Joe as one of her few trusted friends, then I believe she knew he would be kind to her . Therefore I choose to belive that if they do meet in the afterlife, they will be good together.
Greysen G. Looking at your profile picture, your black if I’m right? She stood for strong civil rights along with black lives. Read up on one story where a black woman wasn’t allowed to sing in a club and Marilyn bought front row tickets and listened to her sing for a week.
Jeff Ourun no, if you wasn’t so up ur arse you’d know she was being drugged. She was depressed and nobody cared. They still objectify her and used her knowing farewell how broken she was
@@Realtrollking2988 but his legacy will live on forever. Humans hundreds of years from now will know of him and what he accomplished. Pretty significant.
The reason that people are mentioning MM in a video about Joltin' Joe is because they were so intertwined with each other. He loved (more like adored) her so much, that he never remarried. He did mistreat her during their marriage, but, being a true man of principal, went to therapy to help control his jealousy and anger. They were both the best at what they did, and somehow found each other. That happens so rarely. They were two halves of a whole, and were as close as two people could be at the end of her life. They had planned on remarrying before she passed. His last words, according to his attorney (who was present when he died) were, "I'll finally get to see Marilyn (again)". This in no way diminishes the interview with Joe in this clip, because it was such an important part of his life.
Thank you for this comment on Joe and Marilyn. I totally agree with you. Plus, Joe never spoke publicly about her, or capitalized by writing a tell-all book on their *private* relationship. He never stopped loving her and he had roses sent to her crypt for years after her passing in 1962. Joe's a standup guy in my books and a real class act ❤
Total class act and a man of integrity. Baseball was important to Joe, but Marilyn was his true soul mate and he utterly adored her. He took care of her when she was at the lowest point of her life. May they both Rest In Peace together forever 🙏
I thought that was Joe’s “self proclaimed@ title. Just like Michael Jackson called himself the “King of Pop”. Willie Mays & Ted Williams, both lived longer than Joe DiMaggio, and they were better players.
@@vintagecardcurator He did beat her, however, at the time of her death they were reunited, he got her out of the mental hospital she was put in against her will, then went on vacation together to Florida in 1961, and they were to be remarried. He was the person who banned all Hollywood people from attending her funeral, he picked her body up from the morgue and stayed with her. He was a troubled man, a temperment and jealousy but he did love Norma Jeane. Never once did he sell her out in the years after her death. In them days it was no uncommon for women to put up with brutal tempers of young men. Sad but true. It seemed he worked on himself and Marilyn loved him again.
@@artvandelay409 She probably deserved it, toxic women always get a pass. They can verbally, emotionally and even physically abuse men for years and years without anyone batting an eye. But as soon as the man retaliates just once, he's painted out as the bad one lol. It's ridiculous.
Joe, the son of.a Fisherman! His dad wanted him to be one; as well! His baseball skills exceeded his fisherman skills! I'm so glad that he did because he is one of the greats! ⚾⚾⚾⚾🎬

Not only was Joe DiMaggio one of the all time greatest legends , he was a really good person. Never heard any crap about how he carried himself. He lived & played in a special time when kids could look up to their favorite players. They were good examples for our youth.
^Don't know what or where you two are basing your opinions from. Joe DiMaggio was someone who truly loved Marilyn. He was the only famous person at her funeral and left a rose on her grave for YEARS.
I doubt the hit streak will ever be broken, especially given the current emphasis on drawing walks. Pete Rose has the second best streak of the past 100 years, and it was 12 games shy of Joltin’ Joe. And, don’t forget, after missing one game, he went on to hit in 16 straight. Quite the year, 1941, with Ted Williams also having the last .400 season. I doubt anyone will ever again do that either.
Back when he said it people actually got hits. Today it’s all about Homeruns. Which is stupid not all players should be aiming to be power hitters it’s just not there for them.
little known fact, after the 56 game hitting streak was broken, the very next game he went on a 17 game hitting streak, so he could have easily had a 73 game hitting streak !!
Joe Dimaggio & Ted Williams the greatest baseball players of all time, I say that because look at the # of bat's they had compare to other players. the stats are insane. Williams would've easily had 3,000 hits had he not missed 1943-45 because of his service during world war 2. both were in their prime when they served.
A wonderful bio, Joe Dimaggio, The Hero's Life by Richard Ben Cramer is a must read for any Yankee and DiMaggio fan. Check your local public Library for it.
It still bothers me that as wonderful a man as he was, he roughed up Marilyn Monroe. That is a very very hard thing for me to forgive him for. Physically hitting Marilyn? There's no excuse for it.
@@WallStwizkid True man, kind of like that Pete Davidson guy. Both ugly, but somehow know how to charm the ladies. Maybe it's the money, who knows. Biggie smalls was bagging sheila's too, lol.
It couldn’t have been a Dodger that caught that ball. 0:37 Because the Dodgers win the national league. The😊re is was no interleague play until the 1990s.
"The greater all around player"? I don't know what pipe you been smoking but that's not even close. Babe Ruth. 90 wins as a pitcher and 714 home runs. The most unreachable record in all of sports.
Aggressor of women, stop saying he's with Marilyn, he was one of those who contributed badly to her mental health to the point that she killed herself, Marilyn deserves peace. Stop excluding and pretending it didn't happen
Oohhh get a grip, you’re part of the problem, bringing negativity to this comment section for no good reason. I suggest you do your research before throwing out bold statements like these! I don’t think Marilyn would be proud of fangirls like you…
What? He wasn't perfect but how come she always turned to him? It was Arthur Miller who treated her badly and Joe tried to change from being possessive and jealous
