Bacon Numbers and Google

[Xyzse]

Type in the search bar in google any actor from any country dead or alive after:

Bacon Number {actor/actress}

And find the degrees of separation.

Highest I've gotten thus far is Dolphy at 4.
Dolphy's Bacon number is 4
Dolphy and Riza Santos appeared in Dobol Trobol.
Riza Santos and Michael Madsen appeared in Road Raiders.
Michael Madsen and Chris Penn appeared in Reservoir Dogs.
Chris Penn and Kevin Bacon appeared in Footloose.

15. Okay I finally broke down and tried this...

Through President Clinton or SoS Clinton I am at 5 through the former CEO of the comoany I worked for, lent the First Lady the company townhouse and played golf with the President a few times.

more questionable -

Through Sharon Stone, and this is a vague memory, 5 or 6. My fathers third wife's parents sold their home to Sharon Stone's parents who was in He Said, She Said with Kevin Bacon. Can't remember the exact details and the marriage was short, she passed away 5 months after the marriage so I only heard the story once.

My mother knew Charles de Gaulle, and de Gaulle's Bacon number is 3.

Actually, my Bacon number is 3. I was interviewed as part of a panel by the now-retired Chicago newsman Warner Saunders after the death of Cardinal Bernardin (Archbishop of Chicago, died 1996).

Warner Saunders was in Ali with Christian Stolte

Christian Stolte was in Novocaine with Kevin Bacon
