@jdizzler thats coz u only recognise the stars in it ;) do some research and find out who the other athletes are...you'll be surprised. Everyone works hard to be where they are
@KlaasStortebeker I understand where you're coming from, but when you are in the locker room, focused on your opponent, usually you don't think about who can reproduce more but rather who can win!
@effthedodgers your an idiot. Some of those "faggot" sports are way harder in every way compared to some of the "badass" sports. Have you ever pushed yourself so hard in a baseball game that you died? I watched a sophomore this year collapse right in front of me and die a week later from running so hard in our state cross country meet. Look it up. Montana state xc. Have you ever blacked out running bases in a game opposed to blacking out at the end of a track meet and falling on ur face from ex
I don't know about this ad. If you take the theory of evolution and put us present humans against the humans of 200 years ago, just because the theory of competition says the underdog can prevail, doesn't mean the past would win this battle. We're stronger, we would survive.
Man. That's intense. Athletes are so amazing. Just seeing them perform, every time...my body could never do what they do. Just absolutely amazing. Huge respect for all the athletes out there.
How this ad COULD've been better (for the football (soccer)) part was to NOT put all the "top" teams and players. THis ad's about defying odds, put some wweaker teams and show them triumphing over bigger teams. That will really reach out to me.
Having said that, the rest of the sports was enough to inspire me.
@drakez0mg well previously playing this team away we lost 12-5! coming up to this game we lost 3 players in our team leaving us with only 2 lines and one goalie, as for the recent game we were all over them first 2 periods and up by a goal i think and then they brought it back and we lost... haha still a good game to play!
Actually, the theory of evolution NEVER claimed that "only the strong shall survive." Just the ones who are most adapted to their respective environments :)
Everytime I watch this video, I can't help but tearing up and getting goosebumps. The amount of passion and emotion that it emits is powerful, and an inspiration.
it's ironic how it's talking about the underdogs, the weak ones who win because they have stronger competitve spirit - and they show superstars who're always on top
Right when the video started, I began to get chills. I myself hate Nike, but I love how they inspire people to go beyond what they think their limitation is.
I converted this into an MP3 for my ipod and have it halfway through my running playlist. When he starts talking i know the words off by heart, and it makes me feel regenerated, like I only just left home and have a full tank again to finish with. You should try it :)
3 people really do not appreciate the pressure and stress and strength and passion that atheletes give for our entertainment and their joy and its not always their joy when they get hurt or when they lose. so think about that for a moment and they better regret what they were thinking when they disliked this vid
I love watching this... I listen to it.... I live this... whether i'm running 400m dash, or playing football/futbol/soccer for my team to go on to the next round, or facing the best team in my league... I'll always remember this.. .and never forget it
@miguelangdl you realize that only athletes would look this up and watch it right so we are probably not fat and we are probably outside a lot. i listen to this before every game, so shut up
This isn't a Nike ad, it's the voiceover from a Versus ad over Nike footage. And the original creator of this video had it removed a few months back. He's who you should be thanking.
I watched this before I ran in the mile for my fifth grade track meet yesterday and I broke 6 minutes with a time of 5:59.98, winning the district meet, no kidding. And yes, I really am only 10. :) thnx Nike!!!!!!
@m00oo00 My little brother is in 3rd grade and a while back he ran a 6:33 mile. i hope he gets to being as good as you in 5th grade (yes he is only 8)
@valtothemaxx That is awesome!!! i wish i ran that fast in third grade... :) Tell him to keep up the good work and he could be a great runner. Tell him that "To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift" -Steve Prefontaine
@rockinsurfkid Paula radcliffe wasn't an underdog in the 2004 olympics she was favourite to win and she didn't come close, so i think she tried to run in the 1600 metres and had to stop from exhaustion or something if i remember correctly, also don't say 'from Nike' as if nike produced these athletes, any sports brand such as nike, adidas , reebok ,asics simply sponsor promising or established athletes. btw
The irony is all the the people in this Ad are top athletes, not one of them is or has been an underdog, e.g Ronaldo, Rooney, kobe Bryant, paula radcliffe, Ronaldinho
@EnzoLuca10 He was obviously pointing out that Kobe Bryant can be beat..meaning that he is also human. He is trying to make a point that everyone is human, and determination can beat skill whenever.
@SteveinHD who was obviously pointing that out? because i'm pretty sure this advert has been made by an amateur and therefore the speech has no genuine correlation to the film. i get the point of the monologue i'm just saying all of the athletes in the film are 'top level' and it would be more apt if it was focused more on athletes who have had to overcome difficult obstacles or won against the odds
@ubercanucksfan i think your'e a bit confused mate, i meant the VIDEO is an amateur video or 'Fan made'. Of course their there's a difference in proffesional sportsmen, if thats what you're asking
@SteveinHD Calm down. what do you mean 'i act' of one youtube comment? i have nothing against the sportsmen in the video in fact i'm a United supporter and adore Rooney and still appreciate Ronaldo. It was simply an observation. i'm suprises me it's elicited such an ill informed response but just to be clear i like the video, i think it's well made, i have nothing against the people in it, so to anyone else who's so offended piss off
@EnzoLuca10@SteveinHD hey guys i really appreciate the feedback...i originally designed the vid to outline that all these athletes have worked hard to get to where they are and at some point they were underdogs...probably not under Nike tho :P It was a little project i did when I worked for Nike and head office loved it... unfortunately Versus didn't hence why my original got taken down.
