[teebeaubobo]

Video response IS required! good evening USA

[parkdad]

I was wanted to see how things went. This video was very inspiring at the time (but the last 3 years have been crap) and I always kept this video in the back of my mind. I hope the last 3 were better for you.

[StealthShot360]

[chilly1867]

[rockinjammer]

A really great video - inspiring

[dsdassociates]

First time watching this video. But not the last. Respect for your tunnel vision. If you like to read, which you must if you are an actor, Check out the book , 4 Hour Work Week. You will understand why I recommend it. I won't wish you luck. You've already predicted your 'luck'. Success is a LifeStyle. Live Well.

[04Ace04]

Man,

This video is perfect to see on a down day.

Thats awesome man :D

[insaneshayne]

Thank you very much ACE I'm glad it could lift your spirits!

[insaneshayne]

NO, THANK YOU!

[JimiHenbricks]

Hey Shane, Very inspiring. I loved it. My dream is still to be a stand up comic too. I went to NYC with a wig and a dream when I was 18. Well I'm 37 with 2 kids and still have that dream. I've been in a couple of movies already.

[JimiHenbricks]

IWould you be interested in making a funny movie with me? Its about a guy who drives a rusted piece of crap station wagon and lives on samples in the grocery store & much more.Just a brief desription.I would let you be the star I dont mind and I'll be the co-star.I just love making movies.Let me know.

[rockinjammer]

Insane, it would be extremely helpful if someday I could contact you about a plan specifically for acting?

I am just now beginning to pursue a career in acting, and I have read a couple of books, but still need help/recommendations.

[insaneshayne]

[whistlinphil]

"I can do this!" is something I think a lot.

[larryYehudah]

Great inspiring story. Your truth comes out through the honesty you're able to include. I've been around the block a few times and somehow what you say makes me want to move my butt more. Thanks for beeeeing you!!!

[insaneshayne]

The stories were all true. Thank you for watching and commenting.

[insaneshayne]

YES!!!

[insaneshayne]

Exactly! Thanks for watching.

[insaneshayne]

[LazyFilmProd]

Very good vid. Inspirational

[Gam3rGUrl]

I agree with what you say but it doesn't have to be all about the degree. But I Appreciate your message.

[rockinjammer]

Insaneshane,

I am currently a freshman in high school and I want to pursue two things in life: Acting (Improv Troupe is available at my school, I am attending it), and Business

Do you think I should take the initiative now?

What suggestions do you have for me?

[forbiddenforgotten]

Follow your dreams. Your video is very inspiring and very touching. You've already taken the steps towards your goals. You WILL be all you want to be. I admire you. Keep it up, love.

[TwilightReign666]

Dude, thanks a lot for the inspiration, in 3 years I gonna write you a response when my band will get real famous :P

[monstersparkler]

This isn't funny, this made me cry :(

[mendezfree]

but unless i do something against my morals and standards,lol.

[IntenseMagic]

A+++ Dude... very nice!

[devraipoison]

Thanks for your comment to my video! You're really cool. Watch also the response that I wrote to your comment on my video! We are the campions!;)

[MamaMiaCantBe]

wow cool man hahahahaha thanks to me muahahahahahahaha!

[darkmagic475]

very inspiring, glad there was something to keep me going

in such a easy to digest form. Thanks

[LrdWayland]

this is a pick up video. ^-^

I would like to do my million dollar thing in three years, but unless i do something against my morals and standards,lol. You have got to make more of these

[nordfromnord]

That makes sense, keep it up.

Let me know if u make u're goal then.

[insaneshayne]

I think you are right Agent. Thanks for your comment.

[matt3794]

I'm sorry dude, I don't think you're funny, I don't think your're going to make it. I just think your're in for a bunch of heartache. Wake up before it's too late. Get realistic and forget yesterdays dreams.

[insaneshayne]

Just because you don't think I'm funny doesn't make it a reality. There are many more people out there than you. Also, it not just comedy I want to do...It's your opinion but what your saying makes you sound like a complete fool. I guess that's what everyone should do, just give up on their dreams because what's the use.

[insaneshayne]

Thank you Phyrex999, I won't.

[insaneshayne]

I hate keds

[insaneshayne]

LOL

[insaneshayne]

Thank you very much diabloaa.

[insaneshayne]

Thanks YOUcan.

[insaneshayne]

Awesome. Good luck with your candid camera type gig. Let me know if you get some videos up about it...I'd love to check them out.

[insaneshayne]

Thank you very much for your support and awesome comment slipknot. Great point about allowing them to have jobs. :)

[insaneshayne]

Very wise words. Thank you for commenting and watching.

[insaneshayne]

Me too, but I had to paint it now to sell the house. SUCKS!

[insaneshayne]

Thank you for your comment and encouragement.

[insaneshayne]

Thanks for the comment tarantul85. :)

[insaneshayne]

Thank you KOTM05 I really appreciate that.

[insaneshayne]

You're right.

[insaneshayne]

LOL Yep. Thanks for the comment.

[insaneshayne]

So you think just because people live in the slums they are destined to die there? You can change your path in life!

[ieBrazil]

Tnx man for the reaply... first of all... And no, I do not think they might die in there as one may suppose. But they won't (in totality) change their lives if concrete conditions are not created, available to them, even if they wanted it a lot.

[insaneshayne]

I haven't seen many other videos about "Taking your life back and making yourself happy." I'm sorry that you feel this way. Thank you for your honesty.

[pcfreak4874]

wow dats good:S woow dat is goed niet dus<< is dutch

[Gustava10]

[Xenogamer777]

Inspiration, is the first step to action with motivation.  L.

[TheLeftNutOfGod]

Hot damn, you are one inspirational homeboy. You've got a good message. I'm glad I somehow found my way to this post.

Also, improv is the official rocket sauce. Man, I haven't done that since high school. Sure, I graduated 2 years ago, but damn! I'm gonna go and do some improv!

Keep on rockin' in the free world!

[angelkatsilverqueen]

These walls can't be my haven

These walls can't keep me safe here

Now i guess i got to let them down

[PxIxSxSxOxFxF101]

i am impressed that you have responded to over a thousand messages i have to congragulate you man that shows that you do have a desire to pay attention to everyone and try hard!!!

P.S. when your famouse can you give me a million dollars

[chrispmc]

wow. this video is one of the best on youtube because it has a proper message and you mean wat ur sayin, not just doin for people to say good stuff or just for show. ih ope you get waht you want in life and your wife is incredibly lucky to have a guy like you for a husband

[scifiradioguy]

I think that the crux of this is "Give yourself permission to be what you want to be."

[insaneshayne]

That is pretty much it! Well said...Thank you for the comment! :)

[kicker414]

[latiasandlatios4ever]

[ePhilosopher]

[thomasa]

[JCReborn89]

Fuck Yea!

[supimAndriy]

interesting

[hknapp888]

Your determination is admirable. Focus on a goal and go! Best to ya.

[GothicRoxanne]

ummmmm ...I dont know what to say

Good Luck MAN I hope you'll be what yiu want to be :)

Ill pray for you ..~

[Artman9]

Incredible, I am not from USA we never saw each other(thats for sure) but I support you and I belive you will achieve your goal. Best of luck

[Lucass240]

Sounds like a plan to me. The road of tomorrow is paved by the decisions of today. It is hard for most to believe but your life is is a result of your thought pattern. What you get in life is a reflection of what you are putting into it. What are you feeding your life? Happiness and gratitude? worrying and complaining? what is is you want in life? Think it and receive it. Put it in your life. Like attracts like.

[chocolat1983]

can you explein me what he want to do , because i dont understand english enouth ( iam french)

[angelkatsilverqueen]

Wow, this is the first U tube vid that I have ever seen that makes a real and pertinent statement. Most of the vid's are just silly or for archival purposes but this is a call to everyone out there to get started and make a difference. Bravo...You had me no the verge of tears~

I am ready to take up your challenge, I am ready to make my life happen~

I'll see you in three years!!

Best of luck and THANKS for the nudge!!!

[jeanismohamed]

fagggg

[HappySmackyPro]

Good luck man, I'm going to start my 3 years soon.

[chrispmc]

wernt u listenin? start it TODAY! thats what this awsum post says

[demoxraid]

Strong Desire is no substitute for actually putting the time and effort into it. You can do it without ever making a video like this or even having less desire but in a favorable position

[shadowstalker321]

nice video dude...you know you could be a motivational speaker they make some good money

[streetdna88dna]

this starts me thinkin.

great speech man!

[Blackwolfleader]

oh yeah and also. Take the world in your hands and in 3 years, succsesful or not, atleast beable to say that you tried, bcause not many people do, and that's saying something for ourself. a true visonary.

[insaneshayne]

I agree with you Blackwolf. I appreciate you taking the time to comment like you did. AS long as you give it all you have you cannot fail. Thanks for watching!!

[Blackwolfleader]

(cont.) If getting where you want to go involves studying, working harder, going that little bit further, then I say do it. Like I said, everyone makes a start in life. Where will yours and everyone else' begin? As copied from a book I have read, "does the walker choose the path, or the path choose the walker?" Choose your path, don't let it choose you. I may be young, but I understand life...

[Blackwolfleader]

O.K., I am probably one of the youngest people to comment on your video, but even young, I understand. What your doing is an inspiration for people who've given up on life, people who are struggling, me, and people in general. If what you need to do to get where you want and need to be in life is work harder and keeping your dreams and hopes high, then I say go for it. Everyone makes a start somewhere, weather it's big or small.

[shmejunior]

lol, i gota few things to say. call me sad, but i just browsed through all your HUNDREDS of coments, and i was just wondering how many people who said they would come back and check in 3 years for an update actually will... secondly you must have some real patience responding to almost all of your coments, and not getting angry with all the wankers (excuse the language) who keep havin a go at you. An finaly, good luck!

[insaneshayne]

Thank you very much for the kind and supportive words shmeunior. I hope everyone does comeback to check out the progress, it will be cool. Also, yes it does get a bit sad to see how many unintelligent, uneducated "wankers" think that they can hurt me with their words.

[creepy2poles]

I would say good luck but you're making it happen. Keep rocking for those who can't, should have, and won't follow their dreams. One day, I'll have my 3 years but right now is not the time. Be well, my friend!

[insaneshayne]

Thank you creepy2poles, I appreciate the support.

[avatarkayla]

you are so right! the same things have hapened to me all through my life!! todsy even. but its these kinds of happings that help me to strive for more to prove them wrong! best of wishes when you become great ill be your #1 fan! ;P

[insaneshayne]

Awesome mark. Well, best of luck to you and I hope it's not to stressful for you. You are very welcome.

[insaneshayne]

Awesome to hear that and I hope things turn around for you. Best of luck and thanks for subscribing and watching.

[insaneshayne]

Good luck to you and thank you very much for the comment.

[insaneshayne]

Thank you drown! Do you love Tulsa or what?

[echokiller]

[Mastereditor]

i loved this video!

[northeast38]

Great video! =)

[befoggingexposure]

you can talk shit about this video or you can take in what he's trying to tell you, because he's speaking from experience. if you want something bad enough, you'll do what it takes to go out and get it

[leighnichole]

amen

[2ndPistonHonda]

maybe your calling is motivational speaking, mr. shayne.

[CaptPalmsy]

cool :)

[ravenvillan]

wat is this guy talkin about i thogh this was spoused to be funny

[sammy43028]

this is a true thing that happens! its not a chain letter! its kinda scary at first but it really works!! paste this message into 3 comments and press ALT F4 and your crushes name will appear on the screen!!! its soo weird!

[Elliott29LB]

who really gives a shit what this guys has to say

[nianna22]

wats with all the animosity?

[freetobe79]

Fuck in three years ill be getting out of jail! haha

[TravisB47]

il fukn kill u faggot

[PacifistSoldier84]

that you are the master of yourself. and you can make things happen if you believe in it. no human being can measure one's limits. so go for it..

i myself have 3 major goals that i have to accomplish.

and BeSmaht is right. focus.. and do maintain yourself. keep your passion burning no matter what man..

[Understandings]

You can answer this or not, but I invite you to ask yourself what fame means. Specifically. I agree with you that it's worthwhile to do everything you're saying, but as I'm realizing in LA right now, fame and fortune is not a 3 year plan kind of thing. More like a decade, honestly. (just my experienece) Rock on though. Improv rules.

~RL

[miguelake]

amen brother ur right.

[BeSmAHt]

I think that thats great but one thing that I have realized is that passion is NOTHING without discipline and focus. Passion is great but inconsistent but discipline cna get you through

[zacarie]

i belive you man

[dannyphantomzgurl]

i am sorry but i must post this..ur headline say three years..so HAPPY DANNIVERSARY!! THREE YEARS OF DANNY PHANTOM!!! dont respond plz!

[GeneralVolkov]

best of luck man, uve inspired ME

[shootr44]

one of the best vids ive ever seen...hands down 5 stars

8

[Kimcee4younme]

Alright. I'll take you up on your challenge.

But if I don't do well, I'm going to be angry. Not at you, not at casting directors...hell, not even at MYSELF. I'll be angry because I tried and failed, and no one is accountable for it.

Any words of wisdom for that?

[insaneshayne]

I'm sure you can do more than just inspire people. Good luck though...

[insaneshayne]

Awesome! Thanks for watching.

[insaneshayne]

I am going to track my progress here on youtube for the world to hold me accountable. Thank you for your comment.

[insaneshayne]

I appreciate that very much ciouscritic. Thank you for watching and commenting honestly.

[insaneshayne]

KYTTRUYTR?

[insaneshayne]

You are very welcome waasamber.

[insaneshayne]

Thank you amb, I appreciate it.

[Johnscum]

Easier said than done, don't soak people up in false hope.

[insaneshayne]

You have to believe in something; it might as well be yourself.

[agent7788]

Do whatever it takes. Does that mean murdering my boss so that I can apply for his job? Oh wait...that's not what you mean..
