    A sad loss to a great man
    I am a big fan of Anthony Bourdain and I have watched all his series and found them very entertaining and funny. He has a good view of life and culture around the world seeing the good, bad and the ugly. Tho I noticed near the end they became more dark and serious and not so funny. I was devastated when he took his life and I found it hard to continue watching his series. I did finish them and like I said found them too serious and not as funny. The humour mixed in with the serious was a good balance. This documentary helped me understand a little bit more about what was going on in his head, hearing more about his life, his feelings and emotions. Tho we will never understand why someone who seemed like they had it all could take their life. I know it's not about just what you have, but more about the dark cloud in your head blinding you from seeing what is great in your life. This documentary showed that Anthony lived with very highs and lows, however seems he struggled with both! Sad he took his life the way he did. Losing my partner the same way by the same act, leaves me wondering why someone would want to torture themselves this way!?
