  • 1 Month after my first comment...

    It's just the best video on youtube !

    Why we can click "I like this fucking video" just one time ?

  • Sûrement la meilleure vidéo sur youtube

    ---------------

    Probably the best video on youtube

  • My cousin likes the hate so keep it up if you don't like it ^_^

  • stupid macon ga goth freaks that couldn't jog 10 feet sent me here because they fail at everything so they think this is funny. in all honesty the song choice was spot on given what its truly about. that kid refuses to quit which is way more than 80% of the world would do.

  • @TheDariancraft75 so **cking speciaaal....

  • Brilliant!

  • please tell me this is a joke lol

  • LM FAAAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SO GOOD

  • i like the part where the girl falls

  • heyyyyyyy make a vido of ur self

  • Best part of this video is at 1:51 when the girl in red finally clears a hurdle, looks at the crowd smiling, and then slides into home plate hahaha

  • tru tv sent me

  • God, this is sooooo painful to watch, especially cause it's in slow-mo. It just makes me think, what the hell was her coach thinking? Surely she wasn't much better in practice...

  • little red sliding hood...

  • Poor girl. :(

  • Why?!

    

  • QWOP

  • Why are they in Track and Field....

  • LOLL 0:37 the song : " just like an angel", and she takes pwn # 1 :P

  • i still laughed... BAHAHAA

  • @SuperBUGGzBUNNY ..please stop laughing whilst velu selling eelam to sinhalses!

  • this one is funner  watch?v=f9cmfZFh89o

  • 0:37 DOWN!!!!! JAJAJAJAJAJA!!!

  • LMAO!!! Inspirational??!! is that what it was supposed to be??! ha ha ha ha, that was HILARIOUS!! it was great on Tosh and im still cracking up everytime i watch it...slow mo is even better! thanks, i havent laughed like that in a while!!

  • as hilarious this video is at times, I feel that the original's music just makes that video amazing

  • how did the chick in red beat her?

  • @NaughtyShowComedy because she got disqualified

  • I felt bad for laughing some times, but it's an inspiring video, for sure.

  • You re my hero Alexis :) love ya

  • lol

  • slowmo crash always got me

  • This is a very deep statement. It applies to all. No matter who we are. We will all stumble. Bravo... to those who get us and dust themselves off/begin again-one step at a time-especially in this economy. Some who posted on this video are one of three things: 1) immature and don't know how tough life can be; 2) ignorant and refuse to see what is around them; or 3) just plain mean and indifferent to those who struggle to achieve but cannot due to reasons that are not their fault.

  • TOUGHEST TRACK SPORT GOING. AT SCHOOL YOU ARE FORCED TO DO THIS STUFF TO MAKE UP NUMBERS. THAT WAS "TRUE GRIT"

  • These girls are amazing to keep going like that. Most heroic thing I've seen.

  • Do a barrel roll

  • This is so hilarious. It makes me laugh every time I watch it.

  • I actually kinda feel bad for the girl in the white...

  • hahahahah this shit is so funny

  • I know this video was already viral (check out the roadrash on Alexis' left knee after her first fall and you'll understand why her timing was a bit off), but the addition of such haunting vocals (the radiohead lyrics are in perfect sync with the ending) has created something greater than the sum. Indeed, a very touching masterpiece. 

  • they should be in the special olympics

  • I feel like I'm missing crucial information to be able understand what I just watched.

  • please like alexis on facebook - alexis courage

  • who ever invented hurdles was a real fucking asshole

  • @donkeyparts too right, embarrassing fat and gangly kids alike since their inception. I'd say there's thousands of Alexis Courage's out there. Bastard things

  • Self flagellation with hurdles should be an Olympic sporting event.

  • I think they're doin it wrong.

  • Dumb broad, no one cared.

  • OMG. This is hard to watch and yet so funny for so many reasons. While the focus is Alexis, she and the young lady next to her need not participate in hurdles if they have this much trouble! I was crying from laughing when she decided to go AROUND the hurdle and the girl next to her did a whole body fall AFTER she cleared the hurdle. Good grief!! I'm still LOL!

  • i wasn't sure what i was getting myself into when i clicked on this link.. my first instinct was to not laugh because i thought they were special ed runners

  • haha, if only this was a 300 IM

  • 19 people were beat by Alexis...

  • great song though

  • This is fucking horrible

  • i never understood why people elected not to use the blocks.... its such a big advantage to those who start standing up.

  • I'm surprised to see so many negative and demoralizing comments about a child who has more balls than most of the people any of you will ever meet.

    Ridicule is the easiest response for chicken shits when they see someone try at something and fail. You do it because you are afraid to make an attempt at anything. Failure is a prerequisite of reaching our human potential. Looks like she's on her way and you are not.

  • @rickleeoconnor how does she have anymore balls than every other yahoo around? pretty much every idiot on earth participates in some kind of school sport...and most doing so more successfully than this young lass

  • @baronbuttox Dude, failure is inevitable. It prepares us for success and a greater responsibility. It is somewhere in the middle of the journey from the beginning of us attempting to change ourselves and overcoming that which lay just beyond our knowledge. This girl is different than most because she isn't afraid to try and not succeed. Our moments of failure and fear reveal our true character and nature and she is a great example. You don't have to be the greatest athlete if you have heart.

  • I have been deeply moved by this young woman. Thanks a lot. I will not committed suicide. You have saved my life. I will continue forever in spite of all my poor life.

  • At 1:06 when they say "you're so fucking special" I can't contain myself

  • While the one in red failed the most, the girl in gray had an extremely hilarious, pathetic air about her.

  • GREAT video !!! Thats Courage !!!!

  • Nice Radiohead cover. Such a great video

  • You've got to be sadistic to think this is about courage. Its about child abuse!!! Who the hell let that girl on the track without any preparation whay so ever!?! I feel for the poor girl. Parents should be prosecuted. Thanks for posting the vid though...

  • INCREDIBLE!!! HILARIOUS!!! This is going viral soon... TOSH.0, can we get a web redemption!?!

  • INCREDIBLE!!!  HILARIOUS!!!

  • Ugh, that was painful to watch. Just goes to show dumb determined people put themselves in a lot of pain, when smart people give up and find something they are actually good at. I blame this girl's coach.

  • Haha I was in tears when the girl fell at 1:51. It's just...so...painful to watch her slowly stumble to the track

  • Oh....man!

  • esto es poesia

  • Zombie walk at 1:34 is pretty cool.

  • So...I'm guessing that move to varsity is probably a long shot. 

  • technically.. she didnt finish... she walked around one of them... just sayin

  • just goes to show you, human will power can lead to the destruction of the soul.

  • Nate berkus will know about that.

  • Courage would be to not walk around the hurdle and finish hard

  • you go girl

  • es una verguenza que se dedique ha otra cosa o las que corren a su lado no son chicas corage lo que pasa es que entrenan no se si lo que quieren con este video es volvernos tontos o que aplaudamos to hasta la crisis brabo por creernos gilipollas

  • aleluyah

  • WHAT EVER YOUR NOT GOOD AT.....DO NOT DO IT AGAIN>>>HAHAHAHAH

  • The best champion !!!

  • 112,000 Congrats. You gotta love the traffic on your YouTube channel. Check out these guys other work, good stuff.

  • It's much more Heroic with the music. Before, I felt like I was watching a 14 year old girl's psyche break. Like it kinda felt like a soul-snuff video. I could hear the kids laughter echoing through the school hallways and it made me feel a little sick.

    But Radiohead makes this video both heartbreaking and triumphant. ...Cheers

    to the person that decided to add this song! This video is the story of

    a girl who decided to do one thing -- endure. Awesome.

  • f---kin classic, the skinny chick in the gray should think about eating those hurdles

  • Ah, the Unspecial Olympics.

  • best video of my life

  • omg and THIS is why I NEVER liked hurdles!! LOL they are like the dodge ball of running!

  • 1:54 the girl in the red sweater is smiling cuz she made the hurdle... but then she tries to steal second or something.

  • such dedication...

  • I LOVE THIS

  • Can you please re-do this with Barber's Adagio for Strings. It would be even better. Thanks in advance.

  • I liked this video. If you're a parent with a daughter, a daughter who tries to do her best and make you proud, then you've experienced something like this, where you're so proud of her just for trying, and you love her even more. It made me smile, and I hope her dad appreciates what he has.

  • Oh man this is hard to watch in slow motion, especially when the camera zooms in on her slowly as she's on the ground about to cry towards the end.

  • Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:12-14

  • Hahah they suck so hard, and she skips a hurdle so she is DSQ anyways. Not that it would matter if she wasn't because with that time you won't get any points anyways!

  • I thought the rewarding mediocrity was bad. Now we are rewarding failure?

  • The coaches for each of these young ladies should ashamed that they put their atheletes in such a blatant position to fail. ...ugly. ...disrespectful to the human spirit.

  • Preetty sure I peed myself. You go girllll

  • im sorry but this is pretty funny

  • im sorry but this so funny

  • To all of you who see this as being inspirational, Thanks. To you who don't see it as inspirational, well, you lose.

  • @jpvideopro I see this on one hand as 2 girls who both can't jump hurdles obviously, on the other hand I get what you mean, I just don't think it's reflected that well in this video.

  • It was hard to watch the slow motion.. but it IS inspirational to see her keep going, especially nowadays when too many people just give up when things get tough.

  • все-таки удивительное и странное  существо- человек,,,,,,,

  • That was painful to watch.

  • Wait, is this a school for special education? If its not, that was the saddest attempt at hurdling i've ever seen. It made me laugh how horribly they failed. If it is a special school, than its great that they kept trying

  • I'd tap that

  • Jumping, how does it work!?!

  • The courage to continue to suck at hurdles.

  • rotflmao!

  • one of the hardest things to watch ever

  • Poor girl in red. Epic fail. No. Epic fall.

  • mashup! great work as always guys.

  • If you're wondering where the black people are, they're in the Finals.

  • Some people should just give up!

  • Comment removed

  • WTF...This is trippy...Funny though

  • Use elbow and knee pads next time, kay? Maybe a helmet too..

  • 1:50 I lol'd my ass off at the girl in red. I love how she looks into the crowd, smiles and then eats shit.

  • @FlatEatSleepRepeat Make sure you watch the original version. I think her parents were cheering her on at that moment. You can hear a guy go 'oh nooo' after she does the face plant

  • i peed watching this...

  • Also the girl second from the right had crazy hops. I'm not sure why the other girls even showed up

  • Little Red Sliding Hood stole the show

  • This is great.

    

  • there is a difference in trying and gettin yourself back up and sucking so bad at something you need to just be done with it. this girl clearly has no athletic ability she even jumped one and then fell. she sucks at sports. maybe she should just read a book

  • lame!

  • This isn't courage!!! Someone had to show courage en say:" Girl you're not running until we're shure you're up for the task.

    Fire that trainer!!!

  • Fuckin crying at 1:50, the chick in the red sweatshirt flashes a smile at the side like "HA! I finally made it over one!!!" *SPLAT*

  • @killlerclown omg aha this made me laugh so hard dude that girl smiles at mommy and daddy and just takes a fall hahahaahaa funniest shit ive seen

  • Comment removed

  • Who the fuck is teaching these girls?!

  • Brilliant

  • Alexis Courage is on facebook!! Search for her community page.

  • I lol'd hard

  • WOW...how sad that something inspirational ends up a joke on here by the ignorant people. You can bet Alexis will go alot farther than any of you with your hatefull attitudes

  • @ljbain5 Yes, because a poor girl way out of her league falling over and over again pathetically is inspirational. I've been in a very similar position to her in a track race and trust me, the thing running through your brain is not "Oh boy! I need to gather my courage to keep on going!" No, it's "Oh god get me the fuck out of here this is so embarrassing fuck my life."

    Not to mention that the attitude of "Wow she has amazing courage to keep on going" isn't just fucking stupid, it's dangerous

  • Little Red Sliding Hood made my day.

    1:49-2:02

  • We're all good. Greater Good Comedy Gave us credit and props for the video. Thanks.

  • Who's doing the Radiohead cover?

  • where are these weak ass children from!?

  • She'll grow up to be President.

  • Wow these are some amazingly unathletic girls. They need to quit sports and take up knitting or something that doesn't involve physicality. And way for Alexis to cheat by skipping that one hurdle, earning herself a disqualification.

  • @kimbosprite says the fatty hiding behind a keyboard

  • @ENJOYtheLITTLthings LOLLLLLLLLLLLL if only you knew! Regardless, ad hominem and incorrect attacks such as yours are irrelevant; two of these girls are still obviously HORRIBLY unathletic.
