  • Life changing. I still refer back to it when I am having a tough day.

  • Thumbs up if you're watching this in 2012.

  • Wow, i really am inspired by Randy Pausch!!! Has anybody seen his last lecture? It is really inspiring. The messsage he wanted to deliver to his kids has been delivered to all of us. RIP Randy! I hope that I will know somebody with your spirit in my life! :)

  • @HostingReviews1 Are ou saying this about Paush? I totally agree :)

  • I came over his book by chance in a local library, since I wanted to read a book in english.One of the most inspiring books I've ever read.

  • Randy Pausch is truly one of the most inspiring people I've ever watched-- along with Morrie Schwartz. And I truly wish I had gotten to know them. I'm actually using both of them as examples in my speech for my Forensics competition and I had decided that I will be using this Commencement speech as another entry for the same competition. Because, in all honesty, this is truly beautiful(:

  • Prof. Pausch is THE man

  • @livingisaight Really? What other role models do you have? Cause i fnd that hard to grasp. The guy is a faggot.

  • Very uplifting.

  • great speech

  • David Foster Wallace's 2005 speech at Kenyon is also really really good and thoughtful.

  • 5:58 the most bitchin mustache ever.

  • Randy is indeed one of the finest human beings that we have seen.

  • Who the fuck disliked this?!

  • this and steve job's 2005 stanford commencement are two of the most inspiring speeches i have ever seen

  • @maranello129 Ironically they both died of pancreatic cancer...

  • that was NOT only for the class of 2008, that was for everyone <3

  • Is it just me or were there sounds of someone jacking off from 0:34 - 0:48

  • @rugratz2222 every single word is true

  • he loved his wife so much!

  • @jungirliez That's the kind of love we should all look for. Someone who makes us better.

  • I wonder how it feels to live knowing that you will die at a given time... and if you have gone past beyond that "expiration date," thinking that you may be breathless at any given day. It takes a lot of character to smile given that situation. Wow, Randy! Rest in peace.

  • "We don't beat the reaper by living longer. We beat the reaper by living well... The question is, what do we do between the time we're born and the time he shows up?" - Professor Randy Pausch.

  • Read Rare Earth Forbidden Cures by Dr. Joe Wallach and Dr. Ma Lan. My passion bringing knowledge to everyone. Excitotoxins by R. Baylock.

  • Inspirational 

  • Oh folks I just saw the sorryibrokethetrees (the MORON) is farting around on other videos, giving his lecture on how he can cure the world from any ailment, don't you all wonder why he is not yet a millionair, why he is not represented on any TV-channel, don't wonder why hospitals are still up and working, we don't need them any more as DUMBASS is able to save the world...let's hope noone kills him for being a nuisance!! It would however keep us from having to do the job!

  • i love randy very much

  • @Ninisworld2901 good one! You sure told me!!!

    And blocking is such a sign of victory, isn't it?!

    LOLS

  • @sorryibrokethetrees

    Looks like you are fucking unemployed otherwise you'd be doing your MIRACLES right now, usually people are at work at this hour of the day....MORON

  • @Ninnisworld2901 Yeah? Where are you???

  • Oh and blocking has nothing to do with victory it just saves me from your further bullshit, it was very incidental that I have seen this comment, and OH..please get a check on the spelling problem

  • @Ninnisworld2901 How do you know if it's bullshit? I mean, how would you even know, you haven't talked to me yet. All you've done is listened to your own voice by exploding on me for your own personal reasons...that have nothing to do with me.

  • @Ninnisworld2901 And what spelling problem? Please name the mistakes, cause I can't see any. And it's Nobel Prize, not price, moron!

    Good job!

  • Randy, we love you, and you do continue to live on inside all of us

  • God bless Randy...and bless Jai and his children may he live on in all of us forever

  • So sad. Just read up on this guy. He died 2 months after this speech in July. You could definitely say that he lived a great life.

  • Randy's lectures always draw such emotion from people.

  • if the raw emotion and inspiration of a man can outdo the silliness of an outfit, then he is a great man.

  • @OkayDoood whats your problem with the outfit ever heard of the university outfits in the USA for Graduates and the Professors and teaching staff at a Graduation ceremony??

    Seems like you never had the HONOR of wearing one.

  • your legacy lives forever!

  • I always cry like a little girl when I listen to professor Randy Pausch.

  • INDIAN TEST DENZEL WASHINGTON

  • @baruc3z But he's a fvking faggot!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • wow this was about 2 months before he died and he still looked amazing and still had the same spirit. R.I.P

  • yes! i just wish he stressed dignity (how you feel about yourself) more-so than pride (what others think of you)

  • @AeldidCornelia FUCK YOU

  • RIP.

  • i was part of that graduating class, and it really was an incredible moment - you could feel the energy and love in the stadium that day. this speech still has a huge impact every time i hear it.

  • @sorryibrokethetrees what the hell does that even mean, and how the hell is that comment even relevant? Maybe where ever you are, people have a complex of being ignorant and incoherent.

  • @pdpfatal37 Stop having a loser complex...nice way to fight back, man...lol

  • @sorryibrokethetrees you are such a fucking medical expert aren't you...go talk SHIT elsewhere you stupid knucklehead...what fucking tree did you smoke from....YOU LOSER

  • @Sternlein4USA I'm not takling shit. Ask me about any ailment you have, any part of the body. I'll tell you what concept you'll need to change.

  • @sorryibrokethetrees

    As a MEDICAL EXPERT I can insure you, that you are TALKING GARBAGE, and you are PROBABLY making MONEY, selling PEOPLE GARBAGE, stupid VITAMIN PILLS and CRAP such as have never, meaning NEVER EVER, cured CANCER or ILLNESSES as serious, and it pisses me off, that you dare post this on a memorial video of Randy Pausch, who very obviousely is cherished, loved and very respected by many of us, you dare to write he died because he was not swolling your CRAP PILLS??

    WELL STOP!!

  • @Sternlein4USA You're 20 steps ahead of me. Calm down. I'm just explaining what a fleau is at play here, not just for this guy, but for all Americans. I don't make money, I don't sell pills.

  • @sorryibrokethetrees

    Hey you idiot Sternlein4USA is totally CORRECT on what she is telling you, why don't you waiste other peoples time and do your own video, leaving comemorative videos alone, all of us who visit here, knew and loved Randy, and he sure as HELL was no FAILIURE, he was extremly sucessful, and contrary to you, he was loved by so many people so just go and get a life, win the NOBEL PRICE if you are such a smart ass curing the worlds ailments...just LEAVE HERE

  • @sorryibrokethetrees

    THE FAILURE COMPLEXES NAME is SORRYBROKETHETREES, let alone this very dyslexic sounding nickname, makes me guess on Analphabetism, sell your shit in your country and stay tuned, that one of the peoples relatives who believed in your CRAP and died nevertheless, is not stopping by to kick your sorry ASS one day...if your shit is so great, why haven't you won the NOBEL PRICE yet?? Unfortunately stupidity is not yet a crime otherwise you would be in jail serving LIFE!

  • @Sternlein4USA Lol you're trying to make this about commemoration, but it's truly about you being a loser. It's so obvious you make me cry... of laughter!

    Lol thanks a lot, this was great.

  • @sorryibrokethetrees Before you laugh get an EDUCATION, you dumb moron, learn English before trying to converse in it, because I can easily chew your ass out in German, French, Italian, Greek, Latin and Hebrew, is that enough on your dumb, little undereducated, "understand and speak no English" ASS??

    Then get lost and apply for the SWISS DUMBASS PRICE on having the CURE for all WORLDLY AILMENTS..because the rest of the world is just laughing at your chicken BUTT!

  • @Sternlein4USA Chicken butt? What are you, 5 ? I bet you can't speak another language for sh*t!!!!

    By all means bring it on!

    And the world's laughing at me huh....that's the kind of things 5 year olds say!! I wish I could attack you more, but there's nothing to add. YOU don't even understand why you're having a go at me. You're that stupid...

    lol. I sense a will to attack, but there's nothing behind it...I wish I could meet you in person, so I could really laugh...I miss that...

  • @Sternlein4USA And American education is a joke, you're not smart enough to comprehend how dumb you are.

    That Paush guy is a complete retard.

    Here in Europe we barely talk about education, because nobody has a lack of it!

    How dare you claim to "chew my ass" in other languages, you don't realise that english is the only thing you know, I've lived in 3 different countries, and my english is fvking perfect from a European point of view. You're so low.

  • @sorryibrokethetrees

    Look dumbass there is no English from a EUROPEAN view you asshole, I am GERMAN..so go fuck yourself, I suppose you go and cure fucking Switzerland, and wait till your EGGSHELLS come falling off from behind your ears..before trying to summon anyone on your HEALING POWERS...stupid MORON

  • @Sternlein4USA There is english from EVERYBODY'S point of view YOU MASSIVE MORON. The whole world tries to keep up with english and american movies, clips, and shit food.

    But I won't attack you too much on that, as its general comprehension you seem to have trouble with. It seems that you don't understand anything at all, so I'll give you some slack.

    And what's this about eggshells? As we says in French, you can't just say everything and anything...

  • @Sternlein4USA And here's your smack in the face, IF YOU WANT TO DISMISS MY "HEALING POWERS" as you put it, why don't you try me? There are no pills or anything. I tell you what concept to change and it will heal the area of the ailment. Some heal slower than others but there is always a betterment.

    The only way a sane person dismisses something is to first try it. So after all your whinging and insults are you willing to come to your senses? (lol)

  • @sorryibrokethetrees

    So damit DU auch geschnallt hast, dass ich das mit "deutsch sein" nicht nur so gesagt habe, möchte ich Dir nahelegen, dass Du mit Deinem Wunderheitlmittel doch vielleicht erst versuchst den Nobelpreis abzuräumen, dann kannst Du Dich vor Kunden nicht mehr retten, bis dahin urteile nicht über Menschen die Du nicht kennst in der Schweiz gibt es genug kranke Menschen, denen Du mit Deiner Hilfe zur Seite stehen kannst, mach Dir erst mal LOKAL nen Namen !!!

  • @sorryibrokethetrees Ja Du dummer Hund konträr zu Dir kann ich nicht nur in meiner Muttersprache korrekt sprechen sondern auch in meinen Fremdsprachen, geh in ein Schweizer Krankenhaus und mache Deine MIRAKELHEILUNGEN DU einfallsloser, arbeitsloser LOSER, go and do your fucking miracle healings on Swiss Idiots go to a Swiss hospital and CURE them all, I am sure they WAITED for you ya unemployed LOSER

  • @Sternlein4USA So, where's your answer, I'm still waiting. I've given you enough time. What was the point of this?

    All you have to do is VERIFY, CHECK what I say, to see if it's true. I know the ailments of the whole body and what they represent.

    I'm not here to fight. Why are you here to fight? Health is important. So?

  • @Sternlein4USA And what's this about an education anyway? Do you realise it has nothing to do with the subject??  And I don't sell pills, can't you read? Anyway, I'm sure you'll disregard this and attack me on some unrelated subject for no reason, like you've done here....

    So, I don't know why I even bother. It would be easier talking to a monkey...and stop saying ass, unless you're willing to back it up by meeting me in person. I'll fix you up real nice :-) Trust me baby!! Just come !!!

  • @Sternlein4USA My god how retarded are you? Nobel price? For selling pills, something I never even claimed to do...

    Bravo! You're completely retarded. I've never experienced anything like it. And sorrybrokethetrees is wrong, it's sorryIbrokethetrees, and if you find anything dyslexic in that, you're retarded. And what's all this about academia, it's not the most important thing. It's something retarded people focus on. Normal people focus on morals and human values. You're just on an ego trip.

  • oh my god, 74 people dislike this??? HOW?

    74 people are made of stone!

  • What an inspiring person, what a great professor, what a shame he had such great suffering, who ever said "the good die young", Randy must have been very good and was obviousely needed in heaven, he got called.... I will always remember him, and his words always give me courage again, when I think I need to give up....I am grateful for having "met" Dr. Randy Pausch

  • @Ninnisworld2901 What an inspiring person? what are you, high? He's completely fake, his maneurisms are all conceited, he's totally full of himself!! and he's infinitely ridiculous!!

    How can you see anything else? What is it you're seeing?

  • @sorryibrokethetrees Just take it and shove it ASSHOLE

  • @sorryibrokethetrees you are a faggot a web troll just talking shit, knowing shit, beeing a complete DUMB ASS which others told you plentyfully here...so just take a fucking hike and do NOT talk to me, I do not wish to coverse with IDIOTS, people with so many deficiancies...that I will not take the time to mention those to you as you are well aware of you being an asshole, one just need to review the plenty of comments given to you by others....ASSHOLE

  • @Ninnisworld2901 lol could your answers and thinking be any more simple and limited?

    The people who critiscized me are you!!! and this weird German man- who are completely biased! You only want to hide the truth about Paush being a fag, so you may as well just cover your ears and go "lalalalalalalalalalala"

    hahaha loser!

  • This man is one of the most inspirational people that I know of

  • @music1594 oh it's nice to have complete idiots with us!:)

  • @sorryibrokethetrees, I was wonderring if you realized that Randy died of pancreatic cancer. Because pancreatic cancer has so few symptoms, at the time of his diagnosis, the cancerous cells had metatstatized to his liver and he had a total of ten tumors there.  Although attitude may prolong life (which is why Randy lived longer than expected), in the long run, death is inevitable, especially with pancreatic cancer. I was wondering how you would cure someting like that.

  • @sorryibrokethetrees Whoa.. What's your problem? Did I say anything to offend you? Are you happy you called me an idiot? Does that make you feel better now?

  • Aww i know a book about him fighting through his disease

  • Hail and Farewell, Randy. Thank you for your many gifts to us all.

  • you were such a great person, Randy..everyone will remember you always. The messages that you deliver to us just knocked the way how we have lived so far in this world..we really need to appreciate our lives more by doing every single thing at our best and not loosing our passion to do so before the party is over. Rest in Peace, Randy. I believe your kids and wife will be proud of you.

  • Anyone else read The Last Lecture?

    Great book. Very inspirational.

  • He's the best

  • what is with that bitch in the back with a sour face?

  • We don't beat the reaper by living longer, but by living well, and living fully — for the reaper will come for all of us. The question is: what do we do between the time we're born and the time he shows up.

    It is not the things we do in life that we regret on our death bed. It is the things we do not. Find your passion and follow it.

  • 71 people can go kill themself

  • that old lady on the wheel chair is fucking creepy

  • Reminds me of a quote that I have on my wall:

    "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.

    Explore. Dream. Discover."

  • wow, this speech is so similar to the steve jobs stanford speech

  • I want a dress like that.

  • @andrewmacia Hahaha....

  • @andrewmacia

    then get an education and become a professor lecturing at one of the countries finest universities and you will get that too until then don't bore the hell out of us

  • white people is smart

  • best quote ever finding someone who's happiness is more important than mine

  • aww he really loved his wife!!!!!! shes lucky not that many guys out there that will love u for who you are...

  • @kinav07 well can you blame guys, women look like shit without makeup and you don't see how they really look until you get into a relationship with them and then its too late! You've already signed up!

  • @whole27 hahahaa.... well, i guess guys should learn a lesson and tell grls to take off their makeup before "signing up" if thats the issue lol :)

  • @kinav07 No but women look terrible without makeup and look good with makeup but that's not their real face! So its a lose/lose:)

  • @whole27: If you're dating a person because of how they look, yeah, you're a dumb ass and obviously it's your loss. Women don't look like shit without makeup, either, or else men also look like shit.

    They just look BETTER with makeup. It's called an enhancer for a reason.

  • @Romeighla hahah, what!? Women look horrible without makeup! There is a reason why most women wouldnt be caught dead in public without putting on their "face" first.

    A good looking man looks far better without makeup than a good looking woman without makeup.

    There are a lot women caught without makeup that look awful. I dare you to post pics of yourself with no makeup, not even blush

    Some women look decent without makeup but lets be honest, most women look like shit without makeup.

  • @whole27: I have pictures of me up without makeup, but I do NOT know you, therefore, do not need to show you.

    I've seen plenty of women EVERYWHERE that look perfectly fine without makeup.

    I suppose it's the way you see things, but...if that's the way YOU see things, you are very ignorant indeed.

  • 39!

    wow

  • beautiful

  • 70 people don't want to be reminded that they wasted opportunities in their lives and don't have the guts to try again now, so they surf on to the next porn video instead.

  • @rugratz2222 What were you actually checking my IP?

    Alas, what you say applies to me. Do not like being reminded of it... but you hit the nail right on the head.

  • @rugratz2222

    That reminds me. I think I'll watch porn tonight. Thanks for your comment.

  • @rugratz2222 Totally agree, time is so valuable. Even our fun should be useful and healthy - basketball or climbing inst. of crap-movies

  • @rugratz2222

    8 have read your comment and were inspired to check out some porn, too.

  • @rugratz2222

    Once of the wisest, most honest comments I've ever seen posted on youtube.

  • @rugratz2222 Excuse me, mr. self-righteous. I don't need reminding of the wasted opportunities and I still do have the guts to try again now, and I still watch porn. :-)

  • 6:02 bottom right, THAT DUDE LOOKS LIKE BOBBY LEEE!!

  • What a beautiful mind. God bless his soul.

  • Comment removed

  • @arnie200008  dude, you are SICK

  • Rest In Peace Randy Pausch. May God bless your family.

  • Thank you Randy...RIP. May your family be blessed always.

  • Comment removed

  • INCREDIBLE RANDY PAUSCH

  • Life lessons to be learnt and remembered forever.

    Thanks Professor Randy Pausch!

  • im so touched!

  • I wished I could have been there to listen to him personally. his thoughts are what the new graduates should be hearing. Very nice thoughts. Strong thoughts that has moved me.

  • I wished I could have been there to listen to him personally. his thoughts are what the new graduates should be hearing. Very nice thoughts

  • We don't beat the grim reaper by living longer, we beat it by living well and fully...

  • @blooddrunk420 You are an idiot. That speech was given about 2 months before he died. If you don't appreciate the message (which, as it seems, is one you should really learn) at least show the respect the man is due.

  • his words lives on

  • I wonder why there are 70 people out there who hit the negative rating on this video?

  • @Brambledemon sorry i meant to hit the reply...idk, people never cease to amaze, luckily neither does he.

  • @Brambledemon

    My guess is people of a certain religion who felt he should have been talking about dogma.

  • @Brambledemon Because they haven’t been presented with that gift of death as yet!

  • what a wonderful man. i can watch his lectures all day...

  • i rarely cry, and even more rarely do i cry tears of joy. this is one of those times.

    randy pausch was a sweet and inspiring man. i never met him, but his genuine affection so eloquently communicated through his speeches makes me feel as though i do.

  • What a great person. So inspiring.

  • What a great person and story. So uplifting and inspiring.

  • rip from belgium

  • I like listening to Pausch

    Quote

    We beat the reaper by living well. Grab for the things that are cool. Find your passion and follow it. Passion is fueled within and results from respect from your peers and grounded with people. It is about what people think of you, it is your relationships.

    End Quote

  • Pure gold

  • Thanks Randy for changing the way I see life in only 6 minutes.

  • Yep, I cried too

  • he makes me cry and hope at the same time

    and i realized once more what a looser i am...not to the standards of society (money, job....) but to the fact that i still dont know what it might be that i have passion for

  • @louis1x Unless you're on your deathbed, it means you still have the chance to find the focus for your passion. Don't give up.

  • @Astragali

    thank you

  • I cried

  • passion, find it follow it

  • Thats was nice

  • strong guy...God bless him
