Reach Your Hand Up High | Part Six: Steve Whitmire 

Steve was amazing at everything he did. I really miss him with the Muppets.

Some things really do just seem like destiny. First puppet Steve ever tried to build as a kid was Kermit, it was his high school nickname, Jim’s wife scouted him out and he has the same birthday as Jim Henson himself. It’s like he was truly born for the role

This was awesome! I'm a big fan of Steve Whitmire as well as Jim! This video was an amazing tribute to Steve! I love Steve as Wembley Fraggle and Rizzo the rat! I totally agree with Steve when he said there is no this version or that version of Kermit. Kermit is just Kermit and he exists as himself. That was very well put. To me Kermit will always be Kermit no matter what version and I'll love him either way! Thank you for making this! 💚🐸🌴🐀

That was totally Awesome!, Steve Whitmire is a great Muppet Performer, great job Making this Tribute.😃👍

I will always remember Whitmire by his performance as Wembley❤

Such a shame Steve got fired. Gonzo and Rizzo are the best comedic duo, and pair of wemblin’ fools!

Can't believe Rizzo is dead, it's now only Gonzo and Pepe which I prefer the trio approach instead. At least Weldin is picking up the slack though

I'm sorry about Disney betraying him for their own greed.

He’ll always be Kermit and Ernie to me!

Fantastically edited video! I loved it ❤

These tributes are amazing! Can't wait to see who's next

your stuff never fails to impress!

6:28 that's the closest I've ever heard him get to Jim. I barely hear him do that

3:07 I never knew that was Steve! how did I miss that as a kid?!

7:28 what is this from?! Steve is such a fantastic singer I need to find the full version to this

Are you gonna do a video on the series on Brian Henson anytime soon?

7:29 What Muppet project was this from?

Here's my thought on Steve's cameo in "Space"; "Ha-ha-ha, ha-ha!" Who can guess where I got that from?
