Man...I was in Los Angeles with my best friend just 2 weeks ago. It was just awesome. Venice is the coolest and most casual place on this planet. I miss the whole city of LA including the legendary pier in Santa Monica... I even miss Denny's, Wendy's and of course In and Out😊😋 Then we were in San Francisco for a short time, that was just awesome. Anyway, California is forever in my heart now and I will be back. Greetings from Germany

Hey Mike..I loved how emotional you became when your dream came true. It's more than just a physical thing, it represents your journey and the place you have made your home. I am recovering from long Covid, but your videos inspire me to get better and travel again.. hopefully one day I will be able to thank you in person. God bless sir.

Seeing the pure joy for you to have fulfilled a dream made my sunday. I found your channel unfortunately from the videos of the decline of parts of the city and to see this makes me feel it too there's always a better way man. God bless you sir.

Love your sense of humour brother 😉✌

Thanks Mike! What a gem of a video. Thank you for the history of the Hollywood sign and your experience of touching it first hand. GIV, The King Of Hollywood!

Congratulations! Wow what a special day 👍

It is a honor to see you fulfill a dream, Thank you for your inspiration. Your tears brought tears to my eyes. You'll never know how many lives you've touched and encouraged, You are a blessing. Note: The Hollywood sign now has traces of your DNA and fingerprints.

Good job MIKE-Mike-Mike-mike.. Im Happy you git to do this my friend.. Cheers to you..👍🤗😁🇺🇲

Very happy for you, Mike. You earned your trip to touch the sign. The sign would hug you back if it could 😉

Yes! Giv you said you would one day do it and now mission accomplished 👏✅ so cool! Fantastisch 👍

That's awesome! You achieved a dream to touch the HollyWood sign! High five!

Oh wow ...we are so very excited for you to finally get to touch the sign !!! I was almost in tears with you ..as your super wish !!! Wooo hooo

Well done, Mike! May all your dreams come true.

Mike, you are absolutely an AMAZING person! I am proud and honoured to call you my friend. Even though I am 3,000 miles away on the Blue Ridge of the Appalachian mountains. We are so similar in life thinking. Appreciate the simple things in life. I am over the moon happy for you that you finally got to touch the sign!!! I hope you got to touch every letter. I would have hugged you when you became overcome. I grew up in Hollywood, in the 60's and looked at the sign every day for many many years, We drove up there a few times. Your background of all your videos and all the little personal feelings you tell us are truly unique in You Tube videos. That's one of the things that make your videos so special and sincere. Ausgezeichnete Arbeit!!! There are many things I would love to go see and remember in Hollywood. Mike listen to this next statement. This is no BS. If God ever found a way to get me back there, I would be overwhelmed and honoured to meet you!!!!!! Ich bete, dass Gott Sie mit einem langen, gesunden Leben segnen wird, mein Freund. Gott segne dich Mike!!! I pray God will Bless you with a long healthy life my friend. God Bless you Mike!!!

Great Video Mike A dream come true. Happy you got to Touch the sign. Thank you for sharing your Videos. Blog safe

Good video way don't you ever give me the tums up.....and I have been good to your videos

Great video! I lived in LA for over 30 years, and I always loved the Hollywood Sign! Thanks so much for preparing this special video. I notice that you are getting really close to having 300,000 subscribers! Hope that you are preparing to do something special to celebrate! 🥰🎉

Really awesome ! Only been there once and it really is an iconic landmark. Congrats Mike !

CONGRATS, G.I.V!! Managed to Mantifest your Dream come true from the Universe! 👍💪 your a Good example of Good things that Can Happen.

Excellent presentation! I enjoyed this very much! Thanks Mike!

Back in the early 90s you could hike up there and not get in trouble. I have a photo of myself standing in the 'L"

I got quite close to the Hollywood sign about 40 years ago, standing on the road above/behind it. On that day we were there, not too long after a heavy rainstorm the ground was too muddy to safely go down and touch it, so we didn't. I'm somewhat envious that you got to paint it. Lucky for you, your dream came to fruition.

German in Venice your a living legend. Keep kicking ASS!!!

Du bist wirklich ein glücklicher Mensch - so einfach zufriedenzustellen! Danke für das Video, war wirklich SUPER!

I'm SO happy for you Mike! If anyone deserves to do this, you do. I feel your excitement and enthusiasm and you're a great ambassador for Hollywood. Wait until your mom sees! I would like for Arnold to meet and greet with you in Venice but I wouldn't hold your breath. Maybe one day if he has something scheduled there for an event it may happen for you.🤞

Tears of joy right along with you! Congratulations on achieving this beloved goal of yours!! & thank you for bringing us along! I'm only slightly annoyed that lazy Arnold Schwarzenegger didn't come help you with the Hollywood sign!😅

I understand the emotion, I have worked in film for 30 years, and still love Hollywood.

Mike!! Don’t cry cuz it makes me sad!! You are such a kind soul.

Hello Mike moved you honor❤️thanks for telling us the story of the most famous writing in the world❤🦌❤️

So happy for you Mike!!!!!!!

I got teared up as well when I was watching you on the Hollywood sign😢😢 Thanks Mike!🇨🇦🇨🇦

Mike, my girl and I have a great admiration for you. You are so genuine. And that's a very rare trait these days.✌️❤
