I watched that again today before work. It was on when I was getting dressed. I seen it awhile ago and seeing it today I was still amazed that this guy was so strong even through all the shit he had to go through. Have you guys seen it?

Hah...I saw NLOL's new avatar about, oh 2 seconds ago, and it's of Heinz Baked Beans which immediatly made me think of this documentary because he gets the baked beans thing on his casket. And then I saw this post....that is just creepy.

I cried a lot as well. So sad, so touching. That Queen song always reminds me of him now.

He kind of reminds me of Cancer Boy from that movie Brain Candy

Really good programme, the queen song was one highlight but the best bit is where Nell McAndrew is chatting to him about raising more money for his charity and he is being all serious but when she walks away he admits all he's really bothered about is looking down her top.
