  • my grandmother has cancer, first it was from the lungs, and then it shifted to the spinal cord, anyway, my grandma knows that she doesn't want to live any longer, as she has no purpose for living life on this earth, and that her time is done, she stops eating from time to time, because she feels like she is ruining all of her children's lives, she feels like it's time for her to reincarnate to something good, or reincarnate and do her "homework".

  • Godbless you Johnny may you now and forever rest in peace and be up there with Freddie :,)

  • what a beautiful soul... i would like to meet him in his new form... He is such an inspiration...

  • just like Johny said its a very shallow person who dosent believe theres somthing after we die. God bless you my friend

  • I don't believe in an afterlife, but I do believe that what Jonny Kennedy has done is incredible for future generations. He has left a legacy. His persistence gave us all lessons. We've got one shot, folks. Jonny's story is an example of making a difference. Thank you to Jonny's family and friends and charity creators and charity givers to create a cure for EB.

  • R.I.P Jonny, You are a legend

  • For as long as your response is .. Your essentially saying absolutely nothing! Or just nothing intelligent.. If Johnny doesn't accept Christ then he's going to hell, the bible is extremely clear on that. You should be ashamed for such a poorly assembled answer. Before you can learn to critically think ... You much learn to think first! Good luck to ya

  • Nobody knew his pain, just him, he lived it, but now he's in peace, not suffering any more.

  • you could tell that mom was sick and tired, of course, she looks a lot fresher after a year her son passed away. she is a strong woman.

  • You're a tiger now, Jonny. Stronger than any in existence. Finally, your body reflects your personality.

  • i am so inspired

  • I feel like he would not be pleased to see people writing death threats to each other on his documentary... ahem people who previously commented.. But I think this should be a video shown in all schools & annually on television. It could change the world. In the time that I spent watching this, I can easily say that he is THE most inspiring & wonderful person I have ever heard of.. His most striking qualities were his sense of humour & his philosophical mind. I would have loved to be his friend.

  • It's hard to be sad for him. That sounds harsh, but he did everything he wanted, he inspired many, and he's in a better place now. He got the release from the pain he wanted, I am happy for him.

  • This blows me away, I've no words... All I know is that this needs to be seen by almost everybody in this planet. This is one of the most intensely educational and beautiful films I have ever seen... I'm just lost in love and sadness. Happiness and wisdom. What a fantastic soul. Jonny, you absolute charmer.

  • I saw this documentary for the first time when I was, I think, 9 years old. It stuck in my mind from the first time I saw it. He was so strong.

  • funny how he insults us by saying hes a burden, if hes a burden we would be.....a fat piece of poo rolling around the street causing messes everywhere. he is the strongest man ive seen and what he taught us is irreplaceable i think i can speak for everyone that johnny brought blessing into all of us

  • @hensonnnn That is an uneducated and ignorant reaction, shame on you.

  • Is there a chance he went to hell? Based on the christian doctrine

  • @wreckem881 YOU are for sure. I want to reach through the screen and end your life.

  • @wreckem881 Christian doctrine basically says a lot of things about this. But at the end of the day it is God's judgement and God's decision. If Christianity really is based on Jesus Christ than you'd think that Jonny, brave, beautiful Jonny, will be enjoying the peace and love of heaven for now and evermore. Also, you talk about being 'uneducated and ignorant' to hensonnn. That's ironic because your first question shows you lack tact. Look up tact in the dictionary. All the best. Row

  • Jonny easily is one of the most inspirational people I have ever seen... I watched this documentary years ago and I've never ever forgotten it, it's had a major impact on me. I admire even in the midst of his pain he still maintained a fantastic sense of humour. This truly was a life-changing documentary, one I'll never ever forget. R.I.P Jonny x

  • amazing man, well spoken ... wonderful person.

  • he had a great mother who took care of him this is so sad like shit im crying

  • His mother seems practically giddy at the funeral.

  • i'm glad he got to do all the things he wanted before he passed. he passed away a happy man, no regrets.

  • I have so much respect for Johnny. He was definitely one in a million.

  • ... It's so sad watching how he's become weaker in this last part! D: You feel like you know him when you've watched to 4 first ones. I would have been honored to meet him in real life.

  • What a powerful, story, if I had the money I would donate it all. All I can do at this time is spread awareness. There are so many genetic disorders around the globe that are not being aided. Thank you Johnny, and thank you to his friends and family whom keep his memory alive. I will not soon forgot about this. Goddess be with you.

  • too painful to watch. RIP Jonny Kennedy. God Bless

    I hope more and more people will donate more to your cause, and to the cause of countless other people suffering from cancer.

  • Comment removed

  • The saddest part of it was not that he died, but seeing him progressively get worse.

  • incredible man i watched this a couple of years ago and cried my eyes out...god bless you johnny

  • I'm speechless..I feel tired a bit sad, I really don't know what to say. but thank you for sharing. thats all i can think about for now.. im really sad.. =:(::::

  • omg this was the saddest thing i have ever seen but so beautiful because now hes free

  • I am not someone who is easily inspired by others, but Jonny really has done just that. He is very likely the most interesting and wonderful person I've ever heard of. I normally only donate to animal charities, but I will definitely be donating to D.E.B.R.A as well from now on. Jonny, wherever you are, you have touched many, many people. Knowing that there was a person as lovely as you in this world has definitely made a difference in my life.

  • It`s so sad because as the days narrowed down you can see his energy just decline so quickly . He wasn`t the same as he was the first few videos

  • What an extraordinary, courageous, and witty man! He would have been a friend to treasure. The world is a poorer place without him, but I am thankful he is at peace and free from pain now.

  • omg i like literaly cried at this :'(

  • when i die i will put a tiger on my coffin and below it it will say JONNY KENNEDY

  • okay. I am holding back the tears. This was one of the deepest things I have ever watched. What's really amazing is how pain can make people do incredible things. Maybe this is the real and most incomprehensible proof of the existence of an ultimate justice in this universe.

    I hope to meet this man when I'll die.

  • Absolutely beautiful. Words don't do this justice. Extraordinary man. Extraordinary life. I think Jonny took every opportunity to learn the lessons he needed to learn.

    I just lost a friend recently. It's a wonderful feeling, knowing that she's finally free. Jonny can finally take a deep breath without pain. What a blessed thing it is to be without pain!

    Amazing. Absolutely amazing.

  • Esses 5 videos são os mais valiosos do youtube, pois mostram uma lição de vida. Jonny você merece o ligar mais bonito ao lado de Deus e todos os anjos do Senhor cantando em sua homenagem!!!

  • He was SO lovely! My heart ACHES, BREAKS ans SOBS for you Jonny! God Bless you and I KNOW you are in heaven!

  • This was life-changing... 

  • r.i.p johnny and merry christmas 2011 we wish you luck for your very happy and fun afterlife

  • omg its so sad:(

  • The most amazing, most inspiring documentary I have ever watched.

  • That was a good 50 minutes of my life... How inspiring.

  • I shed a few tears but they were tears of joy in that he is free now ...his pain is gone from him finally

    thank-you to all for sharing this remarkable life-story

  • 5:00 there's the bright blue sky with the puffy white clouds Jonny wanted... You were an amazing insperation to many people Jonny Kennedy. I hope you live a wonderful afterlife.

  • While I don't believe in god or an afterlife... but his words on life were very inspiring. My petty problems are nothing compared to his, what an inspiration. What an amazing, good-hearted, powerful person he must have been.

  • Wow. What a inspiring human- What a wonderful family.

  • That Pizza Box was him!!! It was a joke from him!!!! hahah See you never know when he will pop up, even as a pizza box...RIP lil man...see you in the future

  • WEll now he has no pain

  • I have seen this documentary many times and now everytime I hear Don't Stop me know I think of Johnny R.i.p

    

  • This guy is an inspiration to world!!!! I cried so much...but he leaved us a big lesson of life...just live your life and enjoy it!!!! Life does suck sometimes, but you just go on just like him!!! I wish I could met him...he was so adorable and kind...I just wanted to kiss him and hug him...

    R.I.P. Jonny Kennedy...World has lost a beautiful soul but God has a beautiful angel by his side since then.-

  • You sir were not worthless, a burden or a waste of space....god made you perfect on the inside...in mind and spirit...and as you said, he just gave you a dodgy case.

  • You weren't worthless Johnny, you were a gift to us on earth. So sad to see someone like you go.

  • why would the mother say at the end that he was not worthless as he was when he made this documentary...? so that people could rethink and abort the baby if she has a potential EB baby? every baby has souls and she should have told him that he is loved and cared by many people instead of calling him worthless.

  • @jamaigloo she wasn't calling him worthless, she was saying that he may have felt that way, and making this documentary may have helped him feel like he was worth something.

  • who the hell dislikes this.

  • wow

  • I cried at the end when he passed on, not because I was sad that he died, but because I was sad that the world had lost such a wonderful and inspirational person. Thank you Jonny

  • This was one of the most inspirational stories I have ever watched. What an amazing person, huge heart & gentle soul.

    RIP Johnny Kennedy. xx

  • I just watched this.. amazing man! RIP Jonny x

  • aaahhh dear johnny! I lost one of my children with my husband and father in 1997. Watched your story tonight, and you would be so very pleased to know you bright a big, big smile to face! A tad of saddness, but smiles mostly! You and my son and many others are free of pain and worry, sadness and sickness! I pray that I live the time I have left as admirably as you lived yours!

  • fuck you channel 4 for blocking the rest of these i now have to watch it on 4od with shitty ads

  • i have pretty severe eczema all over my body and i know how painful it can be to do the slightest move on my worst days things like having a shower is fucking agonising but everytime i stand there in pain i think of this man...definately a inspiration

  • Oh wow I balled like a baby this was so amazing

  • In most societies of Europe, to say someone is "worthless" means they are sickly or very incapable of doing a certain task. It is not meant to be insulting at all.

  • Aww I grew to love him in like an hour and then he looks all...lifeless at the end D:

  • HI LOUIS JONES!!!!! IM IN MEDIA!!!!

  • @LYEMaTTy I knew u would say some thing like this lol

  • Thumbs up if you cried. RIP Jonny.

  • Comment removed

  • Amazing story, i welled up:'( Rip inspirational story Rip

  • Wow. I was sad, inspired and uplifted by Johnny's film. I'm sure he's happy now, free from his condition. Rest in peace or living it up as you probably would prefer!

  • that is really sad :(

  • What an amazing man you were Jonny. You are such an inspiration with the way you went through life and handled what it put in your path. RIP and may you be pain free in whatever comes next.

  • Comment removed

  • rip johny

  • prtty sure tigers dont break the laws of gravity .. lol

  • god bless.. what a spirit

  • God Speed Jonny <3 <3

  • r.i.p dude. lil johnny, inspiration to millions.

    sometimes i listen to/ think that i have it hard. the past year or two i had troubles but when things are bad i try think of how you kept your chin up even though your in excruciating pain, still cracking jokes. as many people say we are happy with the knowqledge you are pain free now. much love and respect xxxxx

  • this was soooo sad! watching him die was horrible! im soooo glad he lived the life he wanted living with that. :)

  • He seemed to have a great sense of humour, which in all fairness was admirable. I remember watching him try to put his hat on, drop it... stare at it for a while and then just say "C**t" in a really small dramatic voice. it made me chuckle... The way he said that word, not the fact he couldn't put his hat on, I mean. RIP Jonny.

  • i remember watching this on TV in like 2004/2005. haven't seen it in 6years since great documentary.

  • Truly an inspirational story. He was a good man.

  • This breaks my heart every time I watch it.

  • that made me so happy and gave me a new way to think about life.

  • What an absolute brave soul!!

  • strong person. 

  • im overweight and im always deppressed about it, and i see this and it makes me think to appreciate the way i am.i can lose weight but there was nothing he could do,only the lord knows why, he has a purpose for everything , and its to show people like me and you to count our blessings, and im sure the lord has good things waiting for him, even jonny said in this video theres a purpose for everything.

  • @302jkfsd Johnny could bring the world together

  • @302jkfsd You should stop eating cakes then.

  • @StonesTHATdontROLL you are so ignorant to think all overweight people eat cakes actually im not a cake eater i have a thyroid conditon that causes fluid and weight gain and i dont eat junk so the next time you see a fat person dont assume thats what they do eat cakes and junk actually alot of fat people eat very little, and one more thing i can see you have no sympothy for people and quick to judge whose gonna wipe your ass wen you get old you probly be alone

  • @302jkfsd I'm sorry some ppl have no class... no compassion. You needn't explain yourself to anyone, certainly not the likes of an ignorant jerk like that. Hold your head high. Your top comment is exactly what Johnny wanted ppl to get from his story. xx

  • R.I.P. Brother

  • Awfully awkward song to play at a funeral... Still appropriate for such a brave man. Sweet dreams, Jonny.

  • In my biology class we had to research a genetic disorder and i chose EB...at the end of the presentation i put "For Jonny"

    R.I.P Jonny

  • Comment removed

  • what a great man!

  • This Johnny fellow is one of the most amazing human beings I ever saw.

    If there is a heaven, this guy is among the angels.

  • EB is such a horrible disease, i know someone that had it, he passed away last week at just 16.

    R.I.P

  • @AlexYates1994 So sorry. My brother passed away at 16 ( in 1995) from the same form of EB that Johnny had. This was so hard to watch. And you are right, it is a horrible disease, the most horrible. So much pain is involved.

  • This is heartbreaking, Jonny seemed like a wonderful man. I dont think anyone deserved to have EB. I cried so hard from watching this.

    R.I.P Jonny you are miss

  • I remember crying to this :(

  • as worthless as he was?

  • @lilspliff69 I'm assuming she mean't "not as worthless as he felt he was"... hoping anyway...

  • @postcardpinches not sure why I put an apostrophe in meant... lol In my defense, it is 2:30 in the morning.

  • I LOVE how he say "im away now" at the end bless :'( xx

  • Man this really made me think, what a brave man! R.i.p

  • He is the greatest soul, and as well as his Mum and his brother

  • and Jonny just showed us how strong he was . how he wanted to go an be free from all his pain. thats how we felt when we lost our brother david . fore they r both free from pain , free to do anything that they want to do. they r lookin down on there love ones , just like all there loved ones r lookin up to them . so rip Jonny Kennedy , an David . u will be truly missed an loved for ever

  • i had a brother , who was much older then me , he passed away when he was 27 years old , people made fun of him , be cuz he was different . he was not like me an u . he himself . he had a disease that caused him to become blind, not able to walk nor talk. but all my brothers an sisters looked passed that , for he was our brother an we loved him so much . we miss his even more then we could ever say. he's been gone for 8yrs already but it still feels like yesterday. no one is worthless .

  • To be 'worthless' in this life or in the eyes of this carnal world, is the best investment for the life to come. As I see it, these are the type of people who will be the rulers of the coming righteous age

  • more people should be like jonhnny .. I lovr him and I hope he is doing great ! I hope his family can smile instead of cry when they think of him.

    He is truly an angel and a huge insperation to all who ever knew him! To be delt the hand he was delt he sure as hell handled them cards right ! This documentry touched my heart as im sure it will anyones .... John was a blessing and I hope people can open thier eyes and see it not about what you dont have its what u do with what you do that counts !

  • Rest in peace Jonny. Now I want to listen to Queen...

  • Im happy he died. Not because he was gone but all the pain he had gone through everyday of his life. This man is great and he showed the world that he could do whatever he even through so much pain. I repeat Im happy he died not because he was gone but because he didnt have to go through any more pain. Rest in peace Jonny. We all love you and miss you dearly. You were an inspiration.

  • I LOVE HIS MOTHER...WHAT AN INCREDIBLE LADY! I DO NOT THINK THAT SHE MEANT FOR THE COMMENT THAT SHE MADE TO COME OUT THE WAY IT DID. (AS WORTHLESS AS HE WAS). I THINK THE STATEMENT JUST CAME OUT WRONG.

  • @angelicinspiration1 I'm pretty sure she was saying that thats the way he felt about i...

  • @angelicinspiration1 yeh i think she ment not as worthless as he felt

  • WHAT AN INCREDIBLE HUMAN BEING JONNY WAS. UNBELIEVABLE COURAGE.

    PEOPLE OF THE WORLD,,,,JONNY IS A ROLE MODEL! WHAT AN INCREDIBLE INSPIRATION! OUR PHYSICAL BEING IS NOTHING BUT A SHELL. SO TRUE!!!

  • WHAT AN INCREDIBLE HUMAN BEING JONNY WAS. UNBELIEVABLE COURAGE.

    PEOPLE OF THE WORLD,,,,JONNY IS A ROLE MODEL! WHAT AN INCREDIBLE INSPIRATION!

  • WHAT AN INCREDIBLE HUMAN BEING JONNY WAS. UNBELIEVABLE COURAGE.

    PEOPLE OF THE WORLD,,,,JONNY IS A ROLE MODEL!

  • Cheeky bugger, he had such a wicked sense of humour. Bless him. Rest in peace, Johnny.

  • amazing video and amazing guy as i can see a vast majority agree

    all these people on here who laugh at this are not worth even arguing with, just know that when you people die.. whos gonna give a fuck, noone!! youre sick!

    godbless

  • I cried so much waching this.

    I really found him beautiful. That beauty that comes from the inside of a beautiful soul.

    RIP Jonny. You deserve It. Looking forward to skydiving from a cloud with you.

  • hes amazing 

  • @peppermintcandyxxx amazing thas thru

  • @solarni1 i know its amazing

  • Jonny was a proper man.

  • @aagandesg I can't comprehend people who laugh at others who are in pain. They have no conscience. I understand that in most cases, it's because compassion wasn't instilled in them growing up...but they're so repugnant, that I wish that there is an afterlife dimension of anguish to teach them how foul they are. I should pity them, but I can't. And that's my fault. But I can't change it.

  • that was a awesome, courageous and inspirational story, growing up with a condition like that he had plently support from his family and friends but it was his time to go, to end the suffering for himself and his falmily, God Bless.

  • What a courageous and wonderful man!! we all lost a beautiful spirit but god and heaven gained a beautiful angel. <3

  • you know it's sick when people con the goverment,and say they are sick when they are not, look at this guy tough as boot leather, I can understand the pain he was going through, I had an attack of sjs and I was in agony for 6 weeks, this fellow is one tough guy

  • atleast he lived thro the millennium

  • My god, what a man, what a disease, what a pain...

    Some parts were hard to watch like changing the bandages, my lord he must have suffert a lot.

    Cried most of the time watching.

    Rest in peace you brave soul with a heart of gold

  • @aagandesg Yes its very fucked up to laugh at him. I could not imagine the pain he went through everyday.

  • bloke was an inspiration,so brave

  • RIP Jonny-- You're truely amazing.

    I wish someday to be as understanding of the world as you've shown me :)

  • rest in peace brother

  • I hope he's happy, where ever he is. He really had an amazing out look on life.

  • Rest in peace Jonny kennedy , brave soul you were. God recieved an awesome angel.

  • This is my 3rd time watching it and every time Queen starts playing i ball my eyes out.

  • I feel sorry for his mother, there must have been a sense of relief at the same time as sadness when Jonny passed away, relief that he was at peace. His brother seemed a nice enough bloke, i felt sorry for him too.

    What he says about life and having to learn and that our bodies are a shell, it's so sad and yet so inspiring. I'd advise anyone with doubt about their lives to watch this.

  • wot a guy x

  • Jonny Kennedy the super sonic man :)

  • did he pass away on the bus ride? RIP brother.

  • I hope when my time is up, I can embrace death half as well as this beautiful soul.

  • i feel so sorry for this guy. i hope knowone ever has to go through what he went through... :( R.I.P jonny.

  • now he's free of all pain, but his story broke my heart pretty bad.

  • channel 4 has blocked this on other channels under copyright i hope they don't stop it all together because I like to watch it from time to time and spare johnny a thought or too he inspires me to keep going in my own struggle

  • I actually teared up watching this :'(

  • I can never hear this song without thinking of Johnny...such a sad story, but what a brilliant outlook he had on Life....and his Heinz 57 coffin was classic

    R.I P. Johnny

  • When he was in the cuffin, he wasn't dead. He was moving his eyes.....

  • @jdavidgaviria yes he actually was Dead at that time. the way the screen moved made it look like his eyes moved but they didnt. I thought the same thing at first but then I relized it was just the screen "Moved" that made it look like that.

  • To fight like that means something- you weren't worthless, Johnny.

  • this guy was a legand

  • at 6:18 that boy looks like jonny when he was a kid.

  • Somebody reeeeally needs to present this documentary to every single Emo in existence.

  • did his mother call him worthless at the end?

    he wasnt, at all. RIP JONNY

  • She meant not as worthless as Johnny thought himself as. Man this doco made me really take notice of my own illness, how I THINK I can't cope, but all I have to do is think of HIS suffering and I know I can go on.

    Beautiful soul, may his charity get all the help it needs.

  • damn i remember watching this when i was younger made me sad

  • so dramatic life..... but i admire his strenght

  • jonny died on that train back home...he was 36...makes you realise how fortunate you are if you are in full health, it's the most important thing we take for granted...RIP mister kennedy...

  • this is a lesson for us....life is very important, and we dont realise this...we only see money and cars and big houses and we don't think about our life..... thanks jonny... your place is in heaven...

  • The strongest man! Absolutely amazing!

    Rest in Peace!

  • omg i love him ,i agree the words he spoke i will as long as i live not ever forget his strength! not enough earthly words to describe how this made me feel,period. Thank you Jonny ! you have helped me and others,you were never a waste of space, only people that are are killers and sex offenders my friend! i will never forget you or your story, love you always sasha from wisconsin!

  • man this had to be the most inspiration vid i have ever seen to watch johnny go threw wat he went threw but with a smile on his face was heart warming...now thats a person who lived life and to think goin threw wat he did he still lived life to the fullest then most ppl....thank u johnny for teaching us a life lesson....and to his mother and bother god bless

  • Comment removed

  • arn't we all in misery and pain every day thats the beauty of death whether you believe in god or not. ps i don't think thats the point of the documentary !!

  • You must be the most bravest person ive seen. Bless you.

  • WOW I WOULD LOVE TO DONATE MONEY TO THIS

  • the pain u felt wen ur dressins were bein taken off made me cry, u were a funny guy, never met you tho :( RIP x
