That's Incredible!

The reviewer of "John Davidson" has misspelled a word towards the end of his review on the actor / singer. He spelled "Komono" Dragon when discussing this person. The word is actually spelled 'Komodo" with a "D" & not an "N". A simple error to correct , but easily missed. I'm not too sure if it was spelled accidentally or if the reviewer actually thought this was truly how the name was spelled. I'm pretty sure he or she doing the review thought this was how the word was spelled. Regardless , a spell check & correction of this spelling error needs to take place otherwise someone will firmly believe this reviewer in question is a bad speller which points to his or her lower education level with such obvious blatant disregard for basic reading & writing skills in their education. I am merely requesting that the spelling error in this case be corrected & resubmitted by the reviewer / author or personally by IMDb.com themselves. Thank you.

In the history of American television, "That's Incredible!" must rank as one of the most tasteless and dubiously educational of all time. Time Magazine called it the "most sadistic show on television". Why? Well, the show didn't exactly start out that way. It began a lot like "Ripley's Believe It or Not", "You Asked For It" and a circus sideshow all put together. I remember seeing acts such as folks walking on coals or glass, a yogi would could scrunch himself into a tiny plexiglass box and the like. However, as the show progressed, in order to keep people watching the stunts became more tasteless and outlandish. In particular, they had stunt people doing progressively more and more dangerous things...and several resulted in people being horribly mangled...it was show shown on the air!! I remember two of them well. One involved an idiot stuntman running through a tunnel of flames and when it was completed, he'd burned his fingers off...and they showed his charred and still smoking stumps!! Another one (and one of the last) was when an idiot was going to jump at the last second as cars plowed at him from opposite directions. He didn't time his jump properly...and his foot was ripped off! By this point, the show had run its course, the network was embarrassed by yet another publicity stunt run amok and the public began turning to other programs. Clearly a low-point in human history...entertaining but also a show that often made your skin crawl or embarrassed you for liking it!

Yes ladies and gentlemen! If you watched this show, you will remember that a 4 year old golf phenomenon was introduced to us for the very first time. He was there with his father/coach showing how well he could strike the ball at such a young age. The hosts, as well as the audience were amazed by the young golfer. Later, he went on to win many accolades and tournaments in college and hit the PGA by storm. He won Major championships and is a role model for the grand old sport. Although recently losing his major influence, mentor, close friend and father, he himself has become a father for the first time. Winning the U S Open this year was bittersweet, but for him not to win on Fathers' Day weekend... well.... that would have been harder to imagine. He may not pick up a club for the rest of the year, but his mastery will still amaze all players of any age when he steps up to the tee. Today, you would be hard pressed to find anyone, even casual observers, who haven't heard of him. Of course he goes by his nickname now.... Tiger.

That's Incredible ! Was a family favorite growing up. It seemed like everyone in our group of friends watched the show. We never knew from week to week what we would see.

I loved this show as a kid because of the wide variety of stories they handled on it. There was something on it for everyone from the funny to the supernatural. It was always interesting when they talked about hauntings like in one episode where they mentioned that the ghost of Mary Surrat who was hanged for the Lincoln assassination was still haunting the old courthouse where she was sentenced. They had another one about people who claimed that they died and went to hell. There was one line on there that sort of became a joke at the time "Remember this stunt were showing is very dangerous, do not attempt this at home".
