  • Hmm I'm trying to sense the virginity in this one

  • I wish I could control my "Revolution" kite like this.

    Okay, I can fly indoors too, but this precision,

    especially while flying backwards, is just amazing!

    Respect, man!

  • I loved watching this young man and voted for him - pity had nothing to do with it.

  • i think that this kid is awesome to do what he did with his disabilities. but im not surprised that he only made it past audition. he was voted thru pity and pity alone. if you take away the song and his disabilities, he wouldnt have gotten anywhere and would have been laughed off almost immediately.

  • This was so relaxing. Whoever doesn't like the act or the Connor himself are completely heartless.

  • Beautiful. Simply beautiful. I almost cried!

  • Wow...what kind of act is this? Kite Flying? That's something new..

  • i love owl city aka Adam young were gona get maried in mah back yard...

  • cool

    

  • @immawhofan you are awesome

  • Learn all about the indore kites on travelleruk1(dot)wordpress(dot­)com

    Replace (dot) by symbol . in the address , article name is Indore Kite Flying ...really loved it.

  • lol

    

  • Its no easy task for sure, its difficult to learn how to fly a kite correctly and efficiently in the outdoors. He may not be the best out of the whole bunch, but the kid does have talent that is for sure.

  • this video changed my life forever

  • What a great cause, my family has epilepsy. Thank you for what your doing.

  • By far my all time favorite act on this or any talent show. Way to go Connor!

  • America can do better than this ! bull

  • @SickmanOfVietnam You can't do better so shut your mouth if your not going to show respect to someone who deserves it.

  • That little kid can fly. :)

  • Different yet unique!

  • gay

  • i cry cuz that kite symbloize to me free...... if u really watch it

  • gay

    

  • @vittoamp you have no heart

  • not amazing, but still cool

  • Honestly it was pretty good.. Good Job

  • truly inspirational and beautiful

  • WHAT SONG IS THIS,ANY BODY KNOW???

  • @ejw22 arms of an angel

  • @ejw22 Arms of an Angel, by Sarah McLaughlin. I think. :p

  • i gotta agree, it wasn't that great. but look at it from his perspective. it's like he's in another world when he flies his kites. cut him some slack and think

  • this felt like that plastic bag scene from american beauty

  • i think 404 people disliked because the bloody video kept acting up

  • innocent face

    

  • No pictures please

  • thats pants

    

  • 400 people didnt get that feeling :s

  • Let's be honest here, it wasn't that great.. They passed him out of pity.

  • @KreeseSensei yeah there is an element of that, but also it takes skill to fly a kite indoors with zero wind

  • @KreeseSensei hey why dont u go get a heart .. it was amazing and hey didnt cast out of pity they cast him cuz he has actual talent which is something u dont have so stop being an asswipe just ur jealous

  • @spaceangel365 That's very mature.. Now take your broken heart off the interwebs please.

  • @KreeseSensei I thought it was pretty amazing to see someone like him do that, but he did deserve to make it threw this round, we all knew he wouldn't win but he deserved to make it past the audition.

  • o my god thats like kinda beautiful :) i feel sorry for the kid and i hope he does well in his life

  • I have watched this several times and I still think he is amazing. Does anybody know where this kid is now? I'd love to know how he is doing.

  • @mypsychosis1 He's doing kite performances all over the place and going to college. Search Indoor Kite here on YouTube for  a lot more performsnces by al kinda flyers.

  • @kitehead1 they're assholes

  • what the name song

  • Comment removed

  • can anyone tell me what's the name of the song played

  • @badboyself2 "In the Arms of an Angel" by Sarah McLaughlin

  • epilpsy you can have mojaor fits with it and yes it can kill you look that up also

  • yes that was on perpose see what mistakes we can make?

  • no epilpsy whoops maybe i should pay more atention my self

  • just look it up and then judge him AUTISM

  • he has" autism" just to clear that up if you don't know what that is thats fine however you are on the internent so go look it up i have freinds with it its hard some times but i love them

    

  • one proud mum. :D that guy is the man.

  • there was something wrong with this guy but i cant remember wat it was wrong wif him but this is amazin

  • gotta say, hes pretty good at .. indoor kite flying, respect to him

  • N00B

  • anyone wish that they pressed the buzzer??

    

  • add a sob story and even the lamest talent can seem amazing

  • @KieroEsePony

    well its the truth if they didnt say the heartwarming story and there wasnt that sad music he wouldnt have made it in

  • this kid makes me want to punt a baby

  • no offense that is not really good talent

    he got in because of his illness

  • @glassesboy3 You're an ass.

  • i dont know how some people have to say something bad about thins i mean come on people have a good heart thumbs up if u agree

  • @MrBaseballking00

    its a talent competition where people go to be judged. It would be a lame show if everybody won.

  • I thought they would ask to try!HAHA

  • diarge20 you are a TROLL and a Knob head . You have a young man who after this audition had to look at his mam because he was confused. Quite claerly has metal probs. But you slag him off.

    My comments to you is you tosser.

  • All these negitive comments. You all should be ashamed of yourselves.

    You have somebody who’s through his epilepsy and quite clearly has problems.

    This is for him helping deal with it. Kite flying is a skill and to music is even more difficult.

    I thought it was amazing.

    You should all try to do what conner does before e slagging him off

  • that was retarded. and terrible song choice. i couldnt help of dying dogs and cats while he was doing that

  • I LOVE HIS DIMPLES! :D this video made me cry. i love it. <3

  • Yeah well I guess he must be strange. Usually people's first instinct these days when needing to relax is pump themselves full or drugs or alcohol so I guess to a lot of people with no real talent it would seem strange someone turning to something like this for relaxation. Personally what does it matter what he does. He does it well and shows talent at it, which in turn makes him happy. I don't see the problem personally. I guess to be accepted by most people he needs to be high or drunk O.o

  • @J003S3PH He never said it made him mentally retarded. He said it kept him calm and lessened his seizures. Yet your assuming he is 'acting' mentaslly retarded when that could be just how he normally speaks. Does everyone have to speak perfectly clear with no inflection or waver in their voice otherwise they are 'acting'mentally retarded?

  • i dont get it but i love it :D

  • I'm sure it does take a lot of skill to fly a kite indoors, I just don't get why he got through. It might be a talent, but it was pretty boring.

  • How did you get into flying kites?

    Well back in... OH YAH, I HAVE EPILEPSY BY THE WAY.... where were we?

  • This is very difficult to do and takes many hours of practice. On top of that he is doing it to music which adds extra difficulty to this talen. Manouvering in time to music is something that many would find difficult. He is not justifying his talent by saying he has epilepsy he is just explaining how he got into it. I for one enjoyed his performance very much.

  • this is talent. i can't even keep a kite up outdoors on a windy day. this takes skill.

  • @crazycookie66 lol ikr

  • All of you saying this isn't a talent, then I'm sure you have no perception of talent. It's not about of pity. He has things in his path and overcomes them to create that. Personally I thought it was beautiful. The movement with the music. It was very serene and I saw it as touching. It's a unique hobby and personally I think it's all of that which makes him talented. Maybe I'm the only one who thinks this...but who the hell cares. He just flew a kite with no wind! That's pretty skillful, C'mon.

  • all jokes aside hear how do you fly a kite inside :L

  • Strange...but very captivating!

  • THIS ISNT A TALENT

  • @viperdan1234 he has a talent for flying a kite indoors. Just because it's unusual doesn't mean its not a talent.

  • @TehWinnerz  But it isnt a tallent, who cant fly a kite.

  • @viperdan1234 it's indoors though. I mean...sure I haven't really paid much attention to this so he might be using a wind machine or something...but my point was that at first glance he's flying a kite indoors which is something that I and, probably, you, couldn't do without serious practice/learning this guy's secret.

    Anyway, silly argument :)

  • @viperdan1234 try flying a four lined revoulution kite indoors and try what hes doing.......... not so easy especialy because he does not have to much space

  • now i wanna fly kites...

  • who ever dislikes this video needs to get curb stomped

  • How did this retard get as far as he did? People just feel sorry for him. Stupid fucking kite flying...

  • @elnino482 Your a jerk. And this comment you put just proves that your no better.

  • @Sims2VideoFunTime Nice punctuation, douchebag.

  • @elnino482 Well sir you are douching the bag so fush. ;D

  • @Sims2VideoFunTime "fush" Christ, aren't you intelligent?

  • @elnino482 Yep. Most intelligent person on this planet.

    But in reality - It was a joke. Get control of your anger issues. If your really hate this guy then go on America's got talent and do things for yourself then. Unless ofc you have no talent.

  • @Sims2VideoFunTime You know what maybe I will. Hell, I could fart in a fishbowl as my act, but of course they wouldn't let me get through unless I have some mental issue. This is "America's Got Talent" not "America's Got Pity"

    Fuck off

  • @elnino482 lol you kind of DO have a mental issue though ;D

  • @elnino482 You may be talented at what you do but there is no reason to put him down for what he's trying to accomplish. That is a sign of bad character and insensitivity on your part.  Just be thankful you don't have a disability yourself although your comments lead me to think otherwise. :/

  • @Dansilverbabe Okay I dont hate him as much as I do the fact that this is NOT talent and this is NOT "America's Got Pity"

  • some people on here are heartless. connor is great!

  • People saying that others only like him because he's sick... no. Rather, his sickness made him find this beautiful hobby. I think it's a lovely video. A very peaceful, spiritual performance. I could see him touring and country and going to meetings at Buddhist or Zen clubs (universities have them, for example), and treating them to a peaceful show.

  • You know what this is fucking crap! I never knew about this until my girlfriend showed it to me on here. I do not watch America 's got talent that often. You know I have epilepsy also, so if the only reason you like his performance is because of his disorder is bullshit! I might as well go on America's got talent and say I can shit out the largest turds ever and they will vote for me. This guy makes it look like people with epilepsy are mentally challenged! It is offensive

  • I dont fucking get it, why ARE THERE SO MANY DISLIKES? I dont see YOU(people who disliked this) do something as brave as this if you have a brain disorder. Conor, I respect you deeply!

  • he was my favourite on this show. he was the best.

  • only in america can someone get through a talent show by flying a kite

  • He came to my school! it was amazing i loved it! got chills :D

  • Fact-If I had done the exact same performance, I would have been laughed off the stage.

    I feel bad for the kid, but if you take away the sad story, all you're left with is crap.

  • I watched this young man perform and for some reason he reminded me of my nephew. I cried and couldn't explain why. Then in Sept.2010, we lost him in a swimming accident. Now, it's still hard to watch him but comforting at the same time. I find the song choice amazing for my situation. I thought he was great!

  • i bet this guy gets high a lot!

  • @IIEXTINCTII is that a fat joke?

  • @littleallred008 no you dumbass

  • @behcet123 dang dude calm down, I was being sarcastic

  • @littleallred008 wow dude that was a shit joke

  • @IIEXTINCTII he's sick he doesnt smoke....u sound very ignorant

  • @IIEXTINCTII

    FFFUUUCCCKKK YYYOOUUU! can you not see he has needs?!?!?!? ASSHOLL

  • @IIEXTINCTII WTF

  • all of you people seem like your high in your comments

  • @bokkawokka dude shut the hell up they are touched because of this guy my dad and cousin have very bad epilepse its no laughing matter when you have it really bad like this guy they cut part of your brain out so you dont die ass hole

  • Why does every youtube video I go to have some "debate" going on? I mean, c'mon guys, half the stuff I see on here is so irrational it would make a 5 year old laugh. Sure, this guy will not win the competition, but he does have talent and there is definitely something special in his performance. If you can't see what others see, fine, but there's no need to waste ten pages of comment space to get your point across.

  • I couldn't really care whether the guy has epilepsy. I just like this performance. I find myself asking "Why does this work?" and still don't have an answer. Maybe I don't need one. Granted, it's not a million dollar talent, but I could sit through 30 minutes of it and really enjoy myself. Well done.

  • This is not mesmerizing.. Your disability is irrelevant to kite flying. You make me feel like a bad person for disliking you. I hate you for that. But not as much as I hate your kite flying. Guilt is at the root of your success. You bring me great sadness.

  • I'm not religious nor a fan of McLaughlin, but to see this boy transform from an awkward interviewee "in the rough" into being blissfully free from the harsh reality around his every day life, his spirit soared through that performance - he didn't even seem to notice the critics anymore. That wasn't pity voting. That was someone uniting the hearts of people everywhere without needing a meat dress and T&A to do it. Just beautiful.

  • Indoor revs cost around $300.

  • Comment removed

  • Does anybody know where this amazing young man is now? I would pay to see more of him and his beautiful art.

  • @mypsychosis1 He goes to my school...Bend Oregon...

  • you go kid......transfer to water and defy gravity.......in the wind..

  • Flying a kite has never been more beautiful....

  • @downfurlife I'm thinking that was pretty bitter. If the facts you were stating were so obvious what was the point in stating them?

  • @lAmMichaelSwearingen The song was picked to relay what he feels when he is working with his kites and what he wants everyone watching to feel when we are watching the movements. Not for us to feel sorry for him or look down on him in anyway which sounds like what you are doing.

    @iGOTCHOPPERS1 Just because somebody has some kind of disability doesn't automatically make them retarded and his life story and reason for coming may be touching; but it wasn't a "sob story."

  • They didn't want to hurt his feelings because he's semi retarded with a sob story lmao $5 says he didn't make it past the next round

  • and no, I don't have a heart or compassion. I'm an infantry Marine, somebody has to be like me ya feel me

  • Comment removed

  • @fzymousie *hands over the $5* Lmao Amy, come on girl, it was obviously pity keeping your son afloat. You may love him as if he's number 1 and thats understandable, but your son is not the 12th most talent person in our entire, expansive, triumphant nation; specially with an indoor kite act. Yes I'm harsh and an asshole but I'm a realist and see things for how they truly are. I never said your son was retarded, just "semi retarded" which is a lack of better words for having a major problem

  • how can you hate on this vid i guess there are some people in this world with no heart

  • =')

  • goosebumps

  • omg i love him he is sooo sweet <3

  • What if his kite caught on fire during the performance?

  • @BakingRecipes Then I'd Lol.

  • I feel really happy for Conor :) i have a question what does "x's" mean , i heard him mention that a couple of times

  • @MrZomoor See the big X's above him? If an act is horrible then It is X'd. If it get's 3 X's then the performer has to stop his or her act.

  • I can not believe people are discussing this still. Someone responded to my post from months ago. The name of this show is America Got Talent. Not America got pitty. I get it, it is cute. However, what he did with this kite was not talent. I have trigeminal neuralgia. Sometimes it is hard for me to open my mouth. But, I have more respect for myself and your time than to go on national TV to make puppet faces. However, this would be difficult for me. My 12 year old flies a kite. Grow up

  • @Downfurlife Bitter? Or just jealous?

  • @str8out It is a retarded kid on a show that did something my 12 year old could do. The name of the show was not we have pitty for retarded kids rather we have talent. I get it; it is a shame. Possibly he should do special olympics. The fact he is retarded does not mean we should pretend his kite flying is amazing. If he likes it cool. However, he was quickly voted off never stood a chance. So ti was a pity vote. I am neither jealous or bitter. Rather stating truly obvious facts :)

  • @Downfurlife

    I thought it was remarkable, just the way he did it. When he walked out at first I thought it would be lame and a pity party, but I was wrong. I was happy to see him later in the show and voted for him. Indoor kite flying is not as simple as he makes it look here, there is no wind to hold the kite up. To synchronize it to music is even trickier.

  • @loner1878 lol

  • @Downfurlife

    Run out of snippy little insults then? Big man you are, loser.

  • @loner1878 What do you mean? This simply was no vegas act. It was a retarded kid with a kite. I get it he is disabled; because of that it was impressive - it was. But, this was no vegas style act. Give it up. The retarded kid lost and for good reason. The company who owned the kite he flew pasted this publicity stunt all over the internet, magazines and their website. Honestly it was exploitation of a handicap man. Anyhow - he lost.

  • @Downfurlife

    Half the things on AGT are not fit to be vegas acts. I knew prefectly well there was no chance in hell he would win or be a vegas act but I enjoyed seeing his performances all the same. Funny, I never saw one of those ads.

  • @Downfurlife Obviously you yourself are not well and need some anger management.z Step outside yourself you selfish person and see the beautiful things in life. Even you deserve to be loved. Warts and all.

  • "You have epilepsy, you can't do anything."

    "BITCH, I CAN FLY A KITE INDOORS"

    OWNED

  • @chreveir hahaha i loled

  • Little Allred is my Friend :)

  • Malgré tout ce que les gens peuvent dire, moi je pense qu'il a réussi à faire d'un simple cerf-volant, tout un poème... C'était très émouvant et vraiment très joli !

  • Juste fantastique ! Très émouvant.

  • Before trying to abuse of cats and dogs, just try to fly a kite indoor with NO WIND. Who cares about the song, as depressing as it is, when there is no air depression to fly the kite ? How does he do that ? I'm sure it is not the song that flies the kite.

    Do I post ? ... YESSSSSSSSSSSSSssssssssssssss

  • I've always loved this song. Who the hell would say it reminds them of abused cats and dogs? WTF

  • @crazycutie11 theres a commercial for SPCA that shows abused animals and it has this song playing in the background.

  • @crazycutie11 because if you watch commercials on tv about abused animals, this is the song that plays..

  • how does he do that?! thats awesome!!!!!!!!

  • What's the song ??? ♥

  • @JinyChannel 'In the arms of an Angel' Sarah Mclaughin though Kelly Clarkson also sang it: )

  • omg im on tv

  • What is that song called? I so want to listen to it again! And I don't even know who sings it!

  • the fuck is this shit.

  • @atonkat ummm there is no video response to it
