HEY BRO just want to say keep on fighting dude` my dad has been a quadriplegic for over 20 years and let me just say you have 2 have a heart of a lion and an iron will to go on after this injury and i think you have both!!!! GOD BLESS N MUCH RESPECT
Hello, Chris! I am a handicapped artist living in New England, and found your corner of the world. Thanks for letting me in - all of us! I decided this vlog entry was a good place to start. I too, am vlogging how I master my corner, and prospering. Peace.
Sorry for my english... I think you don't only help other peoples with injuries like yours. U help anybody to be positive and think "what do I have?". I realize we are always wanting more and finally whe are never happy. all my sympathy and respect
I don't know what to say to you, other than I found your vids tonight and I'm addicted. I hate what's happened to you. I admire that you have the strength to keep participating in life and with people. I had two friends go driving high one night. The car rolled & a young man with his whole life ahead became quad. It's changed everything he is until he's a sad, lonely person who I can't be friends with because he begs for sex constantly. You'v adjusted so much better. You're a true legend.
Chris, awesome videos you have posted. A friend of mine (Zach) and I were riding motorcycles on Nov 29th 2009 and a car pulled out and hit Zach head on. He lives today as you do because you are survivors. He just came home for the first time Wed. 4-14-10. he may want to post videos of life after "the accident" and us building him a trike. thanks for the inspiration and as Zach says "Choose to exist or Choose to LIVE" You both have alot of life left to LIVE.. Thanks again
Chris, you are not only an inspiration, but also a role model. You put yourself in ciberspace to help others deal with their lives in a better way. That takes courage, sensibility and integrity. Be assured is not in vain. It sure helped me today! God bless you!!!
Soooo? You make all these videos at your own expense and the real meaning is that you want to HELP others with new ideas and better ways of obtaining the results that until a day ago you didn't have.
I got married after my injury. We are having a wonderful life! Just remember to be patient, stay calm and laugh you asses off every chance you two get!
get a playstation 3 and play online with other people..its away to communicate..and its fun...off the record get some weed it makes it more funner! wish you the best.
Hi Chris.The possitive thing is that u r alive.And you look strong enough to keep on living.u look a little sad.Don't worry there'll be more happy moments on the way.take care.
this is what was meant to be, u can inspire anyone that was ur destiny to inspire ppl from watching this, seriously it has made me think alot about others and myself, thank you
You are a special person! I noticed how your voice almost broke because you were saying something you REALLY feel. You are RICH Chris a lot of bipeds should have the size of your heart and feelings.
Some people, like us, are tetraplegics but at least our minds and hearts (feelings) remain sane there are many that make ugly comments about your work, that's their problem, if they don't like to see or hear what you post why come and read?
I might be tetraplegic but some people's brain (if existing) nee far more care than their bodies.
I don't like snakes, warms, centipides or any crawling human/animal.
Chris Colwell, the reason is to help, upgrade the level of acceptance of the "new arrivals"; your reasons are what YOU REALLY ARE: A VERY NICE PERSON full of love and care, enough to give to others.
History happens only one way in this universe and every way in our imagination. The slightest change to the simplest action and we would be in another world where this never happened and you would be a different man with a different story told elsewhere in another way. Your willingness to open your life and your soul to the world here in this way reflects the character of a truly great man. There aren't many of those left in the world you know.
I'm a freeflyer on my way to deland for the first time. I was checking out skydiving video's and came across your story. Wow what an inspiration you are to me and my fellow skydiving community. I will keep you in my heart and spirit as long as I'm able to skydive. Godspeed, Dr.Peppa
I'm a freeflyer on my way to Deland for the first time. You are definitely an inspiration to me and always will be for my entire skydiving career. Godspeed to you, Dr.Peppa
hey you. good reason for tubing! i'm a quad too, C6 and I tube to share my artistic vision. come stop by my channel... i'm subbing to yours ♥ see you around!
I`m sorry, but quadriplegics cannot move arms nor legs, this man can surely move his arms, so can someone explain this to me? I`m not trying to insult anyone..
Quads can have limited use of limbs & still be Quads. I'm an example of a text book C6 Complete Quadriplegic - I can move my arms because I have use of my biceps and have feeling down the half of my arms closest to my body but I have no use of my triceps or fingers. I can flex my wrists and so wear a special splint to bring my fingers together so I can grab & hold things... but I am *definitely* a quadriplegic. Hope this helps you understand a little bit more!
Please do a little research, intentional or not- your comment IS insulting. The term quadriplegegic does not mean that a person is completely paralyzied. It can refer to loss of sensation, mobility, or both. I've never met this young man so I won't speak for him. However I do notice a loss to some degree of mobility in his hands (I think), which means that a lot of the muscles in his arms are also affected. Hence the term quadriplegic. That's my non-expert "simple" explaination.

Seriously great stuff, man. Shows that you can do anything you put your mind to, and yours is strong. Lotta debate about what your abilities are (kinda surreal, people telling you that you're a para, huh?)...Anyway, thought you might want to do a video just explaining what your injury level is and what that entails. Keep up the good work!
: ) you are an insparation, i have a MUCH less serius life long deisieas: diabetes. Keep on makin vids. chris. BTW wat exactly is Quadriplegia? if you dont mind me asking.
Your a such great and brave guy chris! Watching your videos definitely inspired me to reach my goals in life, good bless you! I wish you nothing but the best! Thankyou
Mate, you are the epitome inner strenght and courage. You obviously have a supportive family and a hardcore circle of friends. I take my hat off..All the best.
Thank you ~ yes, it's important for people to understand that quadriplegia is not always like Christopher Reeve. I don't get out much either .. I'm too busy on the internet! lol Peace and blessings to you always.
Thanks for sharing Chris...I was down and you touched me. One of my good friends also had a parachute accident and now he is a Tri-athlete, Jeremy Newman is his name, in a chair...I am healthy, but sad...thanks for showing me how much I have to be thankful for.
I don't mean to sound rude in my question below if anyone thinks so, but I've found that quadriplegia can involve partial movement in the upper body. So i've answered my own question.
While looking for tunnel flying vids, I wondered what free-flying would look like if someone with real form and creativity and some dance style really got into it. And there you were! Love the upside down Buddha pose. Cool, man! I can see why that was your favorite thing to do. God bless you in your current journey. I imagine someone with your spirit and grace can create and hang with a whole new way of being in the world. I can see you still have your own brand of cool! Warmly, Sooz
You made me CRY dude. "INSPIRATIONAL" DOES NOT EVEN COME CLOSE. I jump, ride, base basically all those things I feel I need to do to feel alive. It does cross my mind "what if?" and to see you and hear you speak with such immense strength and fortitude breaks my heart. If in my daily life I had one ounce of your spirit I would be a stronger and better man. Keep it up man. Thank you.
God bless you Chris. I have 195 skydiving free falls on record but I haven't jumped since 94. Skydiving is an exciting sport but it does have its risks. I hope you eventually regain some feeling in your legs and body. I'll be praying for you.
Perdon por no tener un ingles acorde a lo que quiero expresar, aunque entendi todo lo que quisistes decir.
Quiero que sepas que la adversidad que tuvistes no doblegara el valor de tu espiritu por contar a las personas lo que te sucedio y el valor de ese espiritu sera el que te llevara a ser una mejor persona dia a dia.
your strength and perseverance is very impressive to say the least. your desire to share the challenges you face and overcome to help inspire others is moving.
Thanks for sharing your life with us. It helps on so many ways. Keep creating good music and give us a chance to get into your world. In world of tones ... we feel ... everything.
Keep on making your videos. As a physical therapy student, it really helps me to understand a spinal cord injury functional ability. It looks like your doing great.
Keep up the awesome positive vibe.. you are making a difference upon society to understand what quads/paraplegics have to go through on a daily basis.
Wow...I know a lot has already been said along these lines, but I can't really think of anything else to say that wouldn't be that cheesy other than you are an inspiration. Thanks for sharing your day(s) with us. :)
Hi, Chris. Your videos have made me feel better. I tore ligaments in both my wrists and it has been a long recovery and left me bitterly depressed. I too was doing a dangerous activity (Aikido). Your vids. have made me realize that I still have a functional body. Best Regards, Sean
I feek like I know you now that I watched you through your entire day. I have someone really dear to me in similar situation to you. I really feel like you are close to me. Wishy you all the best and get to go out with someone you care for and someone cares you!
And I'm proud of you....I know that sounds wierd but I'm more proud of you than any other athlete. You are even more of an athelete because the skills you use are excellent in the most immense degree.
Well here I am two hours after my last post.... I've watched all of your Utube posts and now I've changed my mind. You kick serious serious ass. Off to bed. I have to do a massage in 7 hours. I never miss sleep but you enthralled me. Love to talk with you some time. You are a superbadassmofo.:)
I have a lot of respect for you but words can't express how bad I feel for you. I have a mild form of cerebral palsy and I've skydived three times. I've been thinking about doing it again but now I'm reconsidering. On the other hand making things public takes away the negative power. I totally respect you and wish you the best.
hey man i am sorry that u had the accident and now have to face a much tougher life. but its inspiring to see how you have dealt with it and that you are sharing your experiences and your strengths with others. keep your spirit free man even if ur body has new limitations. you are not alone, we're all with u.
Man, I'm with you! You're inspiring, I've no doubt!Gain something positive? Everything! For example your face in the sky, this is inspiring, and positive! Your comments for YouTube, this is brave and positive! In a few years, I'm sure doctors can fix your problems, and you deserve to be the first to jump again! A lot of people are with you, I'm so sure. Keep it up dude, in the end, we all live in the skies..
Thank you buddy, you show how we need care our life.
Peace and Lovo to you man, and remember that you have a nice treasure on earth, becouse you are learning here how to spread the joy of live to everybody.
Hey Man, Great work on all the stuff youre doing! I have definitley gained some things from your videos. You are keeping things real all the time! Thanks for the stuff, you inspire people beyond what you know.

It's not necessarily when you can't move at all, but rather when they're both impaired.
From what I can tell, Chris (although he does make it look easy!) has minimum hand control, and no finger control.
Therefore, a quad.

Keep on making your videos. As a physical therapy student, it really helps me to understand a spinal cord injury functional ability. It looks like your doing great.
Keep up the awesome positive vibe.. you are making a difference upon society to understand what quads/paraplegics have to go through on a daily basis.
Thanks again,

Wow...I know a lot has already been said along these lines, but I can't really think of anything else to say that wouldn't be that cheesy other than you are an inspiration. Thanks for sharing your day(s) with us. :)

Hi, Chris. Your videos have made me feel better. I tore ligaments in both my wrists and it has been a long recovery and left me bitterly depressed. I too was doing a dangerous activity (Aikido). Your vids. have made me realize that I still have a functional body. Best Regards, Sean

And I'm proud of you....I know that sounds wierd but I'm more proud of you than any other athlete. You are even more of an athelete because the skills you use are excellent in the most immense degree.

Hey Chris (Again)
Well here I am two hours after my last post.... I've watched all of your Utube posts and now I've changed my mind. You kick serious serious ass. Off to bed. I have to do a massage in 7 hours. I never miss sleep but you enthralled me. Love to talk with you some time. You are a superbadassmofo.:)

Hey Chris,
I have a lot of respect for you but words can't express how bad I feel for you. I have a mild form of cerebral palsy and I've skydived three times. I've been thinking about doing it again but now I'm reconsidering. On the other hand making things public takes away the negative power. I totally respect you and wish you the best.

Man, I'm with you! You're inspiring, I've no doubt!Gain something positive? Everything! For example your face in the sky, this is inspiring, and positive! Your comments for YouTube, this is brave and positive! In a few years, I'm sure doctors can fix your problems, and you deserve to be the first to jump again! A lot of people are with you, I'm so sure. Keep it up dude, in the end, we all live in the skies..

How did I end up subscribing to your videos ?!
Doesn't matter I guess. The accident footage was "impressive" but what you do with the entire situation is admirable.
Keep up the good work with your music chris !
