The Night John Belushi Died (De Niro and drugs)

De Niro liked to party.

[fieldmarshaldj]

John Belushi was loved and should still be with us. DeNiro, conversely, should’ve been devoured completely by his own hate.

[EagleUSA]

Some can handle having money — others cannot.

[atc23]

Belushi was a good guy. DeNiro is a little bitch

[EEGator]

Plenty of poor & average folks are destroyed by drugs and alcohol.

[Savage Beast]

What could possibly be more boring and squalid than to hang out, party, and set off on some sort of spree with a guy who’s trashed with heroin and cocaine?

[DivineMomentsOfTruth]

They lacked faith. All they had to do is ask God for a Joyous life and it would have been theirs.

I love how the media tries to paint Cathy Smith groupie to

Gordon Lightfoot

Ron Wood and Keith Richards

The Bands Rick Danko, Levin Helm and Richard Manuel

As the villain

Belishi and his cohorts would have gotten their cocaine and H from someone if not her

Like the stars are somehow above it all

DeNiro and Harry Dean Stanton were serious bad boys back then

[a fool in paradise]

Some would say that when you see a friend in a trashed out state you’d try to intervene on his behalf and not enable him by each doing lines with him at separate parts of the night he overdosed.

[colorado tanker]

Belushi obviously was killing himself. His “friends” seemed fine with that.

Drug abuse leads to an early death:

John Belushi
Richard Pryor
Elvis Presley
Robin Williams
Jimi Hendrix
Janis Joplin
Sid Viscous
Jerry Garcia
Keith Moon
Brian Jones
Keith Richards(mostly dead)

[morphing libertarian]

Richards will live to a hundred or more.

[Sans-Culotte]

How I envy the lifestyles of the rich and famous. /s

[woodbutcher1963]

Richards must have super human DNA to survive what he has done to his body.

[yesthatjallen]

How is this group of people different from any other drug-addled group other than they have money and inflated egos bolstered by fame?

This was all normal to them. An intervention would only end the party.

[wastoute]

And this guy has the nerve to say anything about our President?

[Rummyfan]

In the end, no one could save John Belushi from himself. They all indulged him instead.

“How I envy the lifestyles of the rich and famous”

It is glamorous isn’t it.

:: Sid Viscous ::

Did he meet a “watery” death?
Smoked too much centistokes?
