  • Thank you for your inspirational actions and showing that good can happen in the world. Thank you for giving me something that I want to be a part of and spread throughout my community. Thank you for Peace Day and all it represents. This film and what it documents has touched me deeply and hopefully Peace Day 2010 will be even bigger and have even more people engaged in PEACE.

  • Peace now, because I can not wait anymore. If one man can do this imagine what everyone of us can do. Wonderful video!

  • very nice!

  • Great journey!

    Well done movie/music as well.

  • LOVE LOVE AND MORE LOVE

  • Utterly inspiring.

  • If in 7 years, this is possible. I believe in the near future, there will be peace all over the world, and it will be eternally.

  • Heal the world. world peace. we´re all the same, no matter where we come from. unite unite :)

  • Peace at home

    Peace in the wolrd

    Peace one day

  • i am one...and all it takes is for one, in multitudes, to get on board the grass root message and start demanding peace.

  • got shivers throughout the whole movie, I teared at the end. This is one
of the most amazing/ Important projects in the history of humans. 1 day
of peace is the begging to peace every day. Humans need to see that peace, (even one day) is possible. and... if so,
they will know that its possible for more than one day, etc... once
humans acknowledge it as a possibility, they will begin to attract it
more through their states of mind and the law of attraction.
!peace one
day!

  • Doing something like this and being persistent over 10 years is just incredible. I salute you sir and the spirit in you.

  • Any thing is possible! It only takes one person to begin a change for Good-ness!

    For All!

    Don't Stop!

  • So,yes,its possible and when known there's no place for violence or agressivity because in that state of new-concsience love,calm and peace are present.Show to the world that there's a really alternative way of life beyond the economic,political,religion and power interest .I applaud you.

  • Teach them to find themselves,to know how take contact with their own soul now and forever.Tell them is possible feel the love that everything in that world is made of, by listening our souls, meditating,looking at the world beyond the mind, believes and judgements.

  • The world is great as long as there are strivings like this one and people to follow them!

  • Great video, really impressive.

    I never heard about this day. I can help to make subtitles for that movie in Russian.

    World should know.

  • THis was one of the most inspiring films I have ever seen. It is so amazing to think of what one person can create when they choose to stand for something and believe in the possibility and continue to take action. As I watched this, I was moved to tears the whole time. If we can continue to have more and more days of peace, the cynics will have no ground to stand on and there will truly be nothing in the way of creating peace. Thank you Jeremy Gilley! You are amazing.

  • Everyone wants peace. everyone needs peace. it seems so simple. Lets keep fighting for it.

  • Awesome! I could not stop watching!

  • thank you so muc for sharing this quest with us. as much as my heart is broken at how hard it is to get something so positive through, I'm still incredibly inspired by what you've been able to achieve. Greetings from Brazil, keep spreading the love! Love - C

  • This is my first time posting a comment on YouTube and I'm doing it to say "Jeremy Gilley I salute you". You're such an inspiration. I watched the show on the BBC today in Cambodia and by the end of it I had tears in my eyes. Awesome. Keep fighting!

  • This day is good in the short term but in the long term it is actually hurting are race. Because we humans are over populating this earth. War is natural to are characteristic it is in are DNA. We humans have war in are blood, it is part of are primitive instinct. With good comes evil.

  • I've tasted war, injuries and deaths. I've seen the horrors and saddness. Peace is something I wanted to see my entire adult life. I am still suffering from the effects of the battles and still mourning the deaths. This is so far, the best docu I have ever seen. Good job, carry on doing what you need to do.

  • Give Peace A Chance.

  • This is jz gonna HAPPEN! I cant think of anyone on Earth who does not want peace!

  • More people should know about this 0.0

  • We want PEACE! not one day, EVERYDAY!

  • you are pure inspiration.

  • Incredibly inspiring. Thank you, Jeremy Gilley. Makes me wonder what the world could be like if everyone got over themselves and their cynicism and worked as hard and optimistically as he does for peace and understanding in the world.

  • respect!

  • Wow, that was really awe inspiring. I hope that in the future everyday will be peace day, and I will help spread the message.

  • Congratulations Jeremy and to all the unsung hero's behind the scenes.

    I'm a New Zealander now living in Israel. I am incredibly frustrated that every young person, boys and girls, must do 2-3 years of army service here. These young people do not want to fight.

    Peace Day shows these young people that the rest of the world support peace - that war isn't perpetual. So when they vote for their leaders they know they are not alone in their desire for peace and that vote will make a difference.

  • wow!!! normally documentaries bore me but this was incredible... i cried!!! love it...

  • knowing that people like Jeremy still exist in this world gives us the hope that peace will become real someday.

    You are a great man Jeremy.

  • Jeremy Gilley

    i shall remember that name.

  • Peace

  • THat's SO Terrific!!! :D

    I .. man.

    (pause)

    This is great. I'm speechless.

    To more peace days to come!!!

    That day documented (in 2007?) was a Great day. For Tons of people. Possibly billions of individuals.

    Let's all help any way we can to make all the next Peace Days successes.

  • Fantastic. I did not believe something like this could be done. I still have not heard of world peace day in the media. It should be everywhere.

  • In ancient Greece there was a Peace Day and it was called the "olympics" sounds familiar? It wasnt just competition between athletes, war/violence on that day was considered hubris so anyone who made war/violence on that day would supposedly be punished by the Gods. Now that the Olympics are supposed to be universal, why aren't they a Peace Day ? Maybe cause competition sells more than peace...:/

  • I love this video. End.

    You are a very great man and all who supported it. If you just think, just think, then why are we fighting. What is the point, everyone will die sooner or later. So why not just make the best of it????!?!? Live life the longest instead of shooting each other! I fully understand the struggle in this video. Don't be stubborn. GOOOOO PEACE ONE DAY!

  • There will be complete peace one day...

  • THANK YOU

  • i love this show!

  • That's unbelievable.

    It's hard to believe that one person could do something like this!

    Realy amazing!

  • PEACE be with you

  • PEACE NO WAR ! =)

  • I'm so glad you've made this film. I joined your efforts from the first moment I heard of it several years ago. I will continue to believe in peace not just for one day, but forever. I may never see it in my lifetime, but I can still work toward it!

  • One of the best documentaries I have ever seen.

    I'm full of joy to see that there are more people that truthfully want to aim for Peace on Earth. Whether it be days, months, years, and hopefully for a lifetime.

    Maybe the ceasefire wont keep going on, but these views and thoughts will reach through peoples hearts and hopefully make them change for good.

    For Peace.

    One Love.

  • Excellent Film. Peace, Paz.

  • Best documentry or initiative seen , More Jeremys needed in this world to make the Peace day into Peace for ever!

    guys post the video link on ur socialnetworking sites status rather than all non important updates.

    Lets go for it!

  • I am thinking to watch again !!! The idea is great and should be internalized...

  • Incredible.

  • that was awesome

  • im glad i came across this video. i will now tell more people about sept. 21st im just sad that i found this video today and not some time earlier. i just hope that eventually everyone in the world will celebrate this day and that we can truly have not only one of peace but a lifetime

  • cool!

  • Peace two days goooooo!

  • That's truly inspirational. If we touch the common human chord and persevere for a peaceful world, we'll have it.

    "The world had enough to satisfy everybody's needs..." Mahatma Gandhi.

  • WOW! The best documentary ever!!! great person!

  • Yea we want world peace not wars.

  • Im greatly inspired and moved by ur motavation to dedicate your life to such an important cause that everyone should be supporting. People dont understand that they can truly make an impact in the lives of others in the future just by speaking up and following what they believe in. Thank you for showing the world wat one person can do to alter the minds of so many people. I wish you the best of luck in your journey and hope to one day be able to follow your start.

  • I commend you Jeremy for all of your efforts in creating peace one day and seeing it through. this is a truly inspirational video and idea that is now real. thank you!

  • When you begin to doubt you're vision remember all things begin with a seed. It takes tons of sunlight, water, time, and good soil before its stem can push out and be seen. It takes even more time before it reaches maturity. We must begin by planting the seed. And man, you have been planting lots of seeds! Great job! You are an inspiration!

  • It should be a holiday...there should be no war.

  • Peace is an achievable goal and i have no doubt about it... The new revolution of this century is going to be an awareness and consciousness that we are all brothers and sister with similar objectives/needs and this planet is our house for a very short time and to fight against each other will make absolutely no sense ... Alex Fort Lauderdale

  • This is great, more people should know about this, for a youtube video this good, it isn't really as commented/viewed/rated as it should

  • I support this video because in 1932-1933 ther was a famine in Ukraine that killed 12.5 million people because of Russian communists. The whole world just started talking about the news. Greetings from Ukraine an existing country In the middle of Poland and soviet Russia.

  • Peace and Love i wish <3

  • This has inspired hope in me for my local community. Thank you so much for your dedication. Your passion has changed my perception of the ability that human beings have to remain hopeful about something that seems hopeless. thanks again and please don't ever give up! I won't.

  • Jeremy Gilley you are a hero... my hero! i want to follow in ur footsteps :) Im only 15 and i want to change and rid this world of all the negativity. I will support in any way ^_^

    Peace n Love from Trinidad

  • In a world where so many can't see, when one leads others to a vision of a better tomorrow, only then can that vision and that day come.

    Thank you

  • What a wonderful example of the power of determination. Congratulations. Thank you for all that you did.

  • Un capo realmente,

    Saludos y suerte !!

  • very moving vid , amazing effort..I wish you all the success. Only comment I have is see if you can devide the video in small parts. Couple of ppl i know did not watch it because it was 1 hr long...usually ppl dont have that much time in office to watch long vid. If you have small videos like in 10 part with 10 min. each then ppl can watch different parts.

  • Truly Amazing, Thanks so much

  • I haven't really seen anything like it..I must admit this is one of the best documentary movies I've seen..congratz on that, I can see all the effort that has been putted in here. I salute!

  • Inspiring , showing just how much each "One" can accomplish if he/she puts their minds to it. Congradulations on making so many people aware of your effort that you may already have saved many lives.

    CCintheUSA

  • Wow, this is such a great cause, I even feel kinda ashamed for not knowing about i before, but it seems to not be as popular as it should be (even for a 6 days old video) it should have plenty more comments, ratings and views.

    Comment, rate, "favorite" and share this video so the message can be spreaded.

  • PEACE ♥☮ PLEASE

  • Amazing. Like the one guys said in the film, even if a ceasefire of an entire day doesn't come to pass, he will already have saved thousands of lives all over, that alone is the cornerstone to where this movement is going to lead the next generation into. I applaud you Jeremy, one man's vision CAN change the world, it is only a matter of everyone else believing that it is possible.

  • We want the Coca Cola peace bottle in Romania too

  • there will be peace in earth within the human race on day!! i just hope to be alive in that day. greating from portugal ilha da medeira

  • I love this movie.I will do all that i can to spread the idea.Now its two days after,and the first time i ever heard of this.The thougt is still great thoug. All my support from Norway.

  • Peace on earth!! It's real.

    Paz en el mundo!! Es real.

    Greetings from Mexico.

  • I watched the whole film. I will recognize day for now on and I will spread the word. Thank You! Also, If you need a filmmaker to help you out with any future projects, I am more than willing to help.

  • Awesome film. I am a skeptic, and dont believe that there can ever be world peace. But after watching this video and see it come true for one day.... well, let me just say that this brings a lot of hope. Great effort and marvelous work.

  • It puts me to shame, living my comfortable life. Jeremy Gilley, Jude Law and all those amazing Unicef and Afghan workers are just remarkable. Sept 21, will never be the same for me. I will pass it on. Make Peace the new Faith!

  • wow!!!!! only peace for 1 day and he used over 10 years to do it? :o

  • What a shame that such a great cause only got this many views. you are a wonderful man.

  • Thank God for the people who are willing to take risks to help others. You are all beautiful !!!!!!!

    Thank you!!!!!!!

  • Humanity is a disease. We don't respect ourselves. We don't respect each other. We don't respect our planet. What value do we have?

  • nice

  • Nothing PERFECT will ever come from the minds of IMPERFECT men.

  • thank you for your amazing work for the world ~ for the children ~ absolutely beautiful

  • thank you for your amazing work for the world ~ for the children ~ absolutely beautiful

  • This is so beautiful. The inspiration and the effort to do such a big thing from one man made my heart cry. Now all it takes is for war to stop in the entire universe.

  • So even if a day existed where 99.9% of the world desired peace, one single person could shatter the loving silence with a gunshot.

  • oh my god, Ahmad Fawzi is.... scary. That man does not WANT peace. He is happy with all his power.

    Happy Day of Peace everyone!!

  • Thank You..................

  • Peace is a wonderful concept and I wish that death and hate would cease to exist. However, it is an unfortunate truth that no matter what they do, the leaders of these nations can not directly control the actions of individuals indirectly representative of them. If one gun goes off in Palestine, it would reflect poorly on the president of Palestine and the same for the citizens of Israel.

    People are emotional creatures and often times the easiest emotion to respond to is anger. (cont'd...)

  • peace and love to all!

  • Today, September 21 2009 and only 1874 views on the video.

    This effort need more views, just for the day next year.

  • You are truly an inspiration, Mr. Gilley and so are those who have brought peace and continue to around the world. I will do my part, as well. Thank you!

  • Just thank you for this video.

    I'm trying to think of anything else to say but I am, in all honesty, lost for words. Amid all the chaos the world is dealing with, this video- this day, actually- is a beautiful gift of hope. God bless, and keep striving for peace. We're behind you (and trying oh so hard to be as inspirational as you) every step of the way. ♥

  • Amazing.. thank you

  • and if all else fails Try and try again. do not give up

  • Such an unnecessary day.

    Peace should be permanent --- Sad the world is too arrogant for that to happen in the near future.

    At least some people are trying to change that attitude :)

    Keep up the work!

  • Not meaning to rain on anyone's day but; as long there is two humans on this earth, there will be wars.

  • sad but true

  • God really uses you, if one man can achieve one day of peace, it makes people think of what can millions of peaple achieve if they do their parts as well.

    God Bless

  • Spread the peace

  • Cool idea. I wonder why there are only about 1,300 views... come on YouTube, put it on top rotation at least for a day :-)

  • We saw this in school.

    Thanks for posting. :)

  • Indescribable. That is why we need more people with an effort like this. We need it to become world known and part of everyday life.

  • I am in an American who believes in peace but, most of my money goes to fight two wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. I am tired of paying for something I fundamentally do not believe in. 43 States in the United States are held up by the war economy. I am not a cynic but, the very structures of our civilization promote war and conflict. As long as taxpayers support war it will continue.

  • This film shows that you can't just declare "peace". You have to work through the concrete grievances that cause strife. As he discovered when he showed his commercial to the Arab League.

  • i will pass. what is the point of one day when everyone you loved die? This day is meaning less as long as there are companies that start wars for profit. if i was him i would look for a way to make a human life more valueable then money.

  • I'm in

  • Nobody needs to die by the hands of a soldier. Governments need end the petty bickering between each other for the rest of man kind. Senseless killing needs to stop, you don't fight fire with fire. We must have peace. We are one. Peace.

  • wow this is really amazing. sad that people post billions of comments on other videos as this one only has a few... simply beautiful..

  • It is increnible!

    Start is always the hardest. You managed to bring peace to the whole world for at least a one day. One day is a huge deal! It's a fundation for future peace events and movements worldwide :D great work. I'm a supporter and willing to involve :)  many thanks from Croatia

  • at the beginning of the meeting my eyes got big because everyone seemed to be getting on the defensive as if being attacked (strange) ok let me finish watching

  • Support from Colombia! amazing video!

  • So cool

  • You cannot have a peace day until you actually go after the people/government(s) supplying weapon/ideologies, and helping to fuel certain aggressions towards certain groups, rather its over oil, land-rights, or child slavery abroad and here in the states. We must stop the war machine and in order to do that you must remove those in power that only think of war.

  • love it 2day is peaceoneday !!!

  • the dudes a linguist/excellent orator, the plea he makes to the arab nations in the first five minutes of the film is pretty powerful given that it was improv

  • Inspirational...I guess one person can make a difference. Amazing truly amazing.

  • great effort for a noble cause sir. i am also a supporter now.

  • What a wonder film, and a wonderful idea. It all starts as an idea, at least we now have an idea like this to put forth into action. Love to all ( all meaning ALL)

  • God foresaw the failure of human efforts and inspired the Bible writers to foretell the conditions that we see today. These conditions are the sign that his time to act has drawn near. (Matthew 24:7, 8; 2 Timothy 3:1-5) Yes, Jesus Christ said that this generation that now faces so much bad news is also the generation to which the good news can be announced that Gods kingdom is at hand.—Luke 21:28-32.

  • this is a wonderful idea. i'm REALLY hoping this works.

    but we all know how people are. fighting is an instinct. we've been fighting for how many years now.

  • Well, for what it's worth, I hope this becomes an actual, globally-recognized event at some point in the future.

  • I truly wish that i could be a part of this organisation that is working towards the freedom of the people of the world from war and violence of all kind. I think that it's a good move on behalf of all the nations, persons and organisations that are involved and are pushing this worthwile project. I also admire that Mr. Jeremy Gilley is pushing this worthy cause with every cent that he has and I also admire that he is starting by just asking for a day,

  • great !!!!!!!!!!!

  • I agree, you're work is very important to the progress of we humanity as a whole, and just one day of peace a year can instill hope in others to make that day happen again and again. I want to thank you for the incredible task you have taken up and wish you the best of luck on all that precedes you.

  • powerful. its amzing how many different types of people wish for peace but it hasnt happened yet.

  • simply amazing. your work should inspire all.

  • Where's the Transcript? Closed Caption? Subtitle? Please??

  • today is the 21st of september, the original date for PeaceOneDay. I think this is an amazing project and the amount of effort one man has put in to have one day of peace around the world is amazing.

    he has dedicated so any years and its very insperational.

    But I think its sad that people can post 10000 comments on comedy videos and not on serious videos such as this.

    I just want the director to know that his work is incredible and people out there DO care, and that people are thankful to him.

  • totally agree, this film was so awesome and inspiring! i actually just posted it on my facebook and told everyone to watch it!

  • Unfortunately, people in general are lazy (they don't want to think) and greedy (selfish desire to be recognized amounts the thousands).

  • I totally agree! I just made a similar comment on the Saving Lives: Peace Day is Working video! I am sad that people don't find this cause to be THE most important cause on our planet! PRAY AND HOPE FOR PEACE!

  • today's peace day????

  • I agree, it is somewhat sad how this has only 11 comments, and so little views, but perhaps it is not due to a lack of interest, but the fact that it is nearly an hour long. Unfortunately most people aren't willing to spend an hour out of their 24 hour day to watch a youtube video.

    Jeremy has definitley proved that a single person can make a huge impact. Just imagine what could happen if a state did the same, an entire country did the same! An entire continent! We can make a difference!

  • It's only been up for 3 days,

    So hopefully this video will get alot bigger o, ,o

  • Seriousness is a weird issue. Giving importance to naming a day to remember we need to not kill and cheat each other is nice, however, a comment is nothing on an issue where change comes from the self.

  • I wouldn't have said it any better!

  • its because people don't go to youtube to look for World Peace. they come for comedy purposes and such.

  • i agree!

  • You can always link it everuwhere you can...you, me and everyone who watches this video...

  • I totally agree on everything you've said. :)

  • Wow I haven't seen or felt that kind of movement for a long time! I wasn't planning on watching a hour long video tonight...I would like to know if you are doing anything in Guatemala. If not maybe we could start that movement for next year.

    Thank you for your inspiration!

  • Indeed. Next time someone asks who I'm inspired, and moved by, I will immediately respond Jeremy Gilley.

    Seriously..this is amazing.

  • PEACE.

  • this is absolutely wonderful!! thank you

  • yaaa world peace day sounds like something that should be like a holiday!!!

  • Now all we need is 364 more days of peace per year. Hey gotta start somewhere. What a truly inspirational effort. Thank you Jeremy!

  • hehe how

  • Excellent

  • Brilliant.

  • i didn't no the today was 21 of september peace

  • amazing, simply amazing

  • why can't we all...get along?

  • peace unite's the world..and am a fan of love and prosperity.this movie has provin to us that nottin is impossible.save the world..really loved it..jst wish our leaders around the globe can correspond on a peaceful piont of view.

  • This movie was on RUV, an Icelandic television station and I watched it and I think it is truly amazing! I want to do something to make the world better. I want peace above all things other. x

  • This young man is so far ahead of his time. So many corporations and private individuals make so much money off war, that I seriously doubt that we will ever have peace in the entire world.

    Peace is something we must fight for with our with support for people like Jeremy who are working so hard to achieve peace.

  • Peace and Love guys :)

  • Great movie! I have now watched it in its entire length..Peace! I support this 100%

  • Peace Maker!~!!!

  • amazing, really inspiring. I just wonder why I haven't heard about it until now?!

  • Peace!
