  • And I thought I had problems....

    Respect. Will. Inspiration.

  • I shook this guys hand. He is a very good frend of my aunts. I didnt even kno this video about him was on youtube until I stumbled upon it.

  • The world needs more people like him and Cyclist!

  • This guy is way to cool we need mare people with his out look on life.He makes you want to go out and ride no matter how bad you feel or he does me.I take my hat off to this guy.All I can say is way to go man way to go...

  • That is just awesome :-)

  • wait a minute...he is riding fixed with ONE leg???

    i have seen God.

  • What a man

  • kids are stupid! 

  • cars is the reason for all our problems.

    example- oil, accidents, polution, kidnappings etc.

    there should only be public buses that go out of cities

    and in the city people should only ride bikes.

    not only will that reduce pollution. but it would reduce FAT ASS PEOPLE!

  • MAN THIS GUY A HERO FOR SAVING THAT KID

  • Praise God

  • This guy puts things in perspective.

  • respect

  • I think this video sums up the concept of, 'getting over it and moving on up!'.

    Respect for doing exactly that.

  • Determination! This guy is a great example of it! 

  • raise some money or get a church orfond raiser groop to buy you the leg you need to do you job easyer there is lots of places to get help out there

  • That aint nothing, a friend of mine has no arms or hands and works as a dentist!

  • wow, he's the shit.

  • this guy is awesome..... long live biking!!!

  • his insurance said his leg is a luxury?! what the hell are they thinking? it is amazing what he does with what he has, but how stupid can the insurance guys be?

  • I love you man! And there are so many people cry about little things.

  • one of the most awesome vids on youtube!

  • screw carbon bikes! this guy says it's lighter!

  • This man is an inspiration

  • Lost leg...Not heart.

  • Great story! Went from the streets to doing something he loves! I give a thumbs up to him and the lady that gave him a second chance and gave him the money for him to buy his bike! He puts all other messengers to shame!

  • This Man's fucking amazing.

    Usually, a missing limb will affect certain people for life. This guy manages just fine. It goes to show that why should such an impairment keep you away from something. He figured a way to make a bicycle suitable for him. Thanks for sharing. 5 stars.

  • I just realised someone suggested a fundraiser two years ago and no action taken? Come on people, ask yourselves, what would Tom Morello do!

  • this dude rules, what soul power we should get a fund raising thing together for him.

  • that guys a bad ass.

  • ride on ! ride while you hear ac/dc ride on!

  • dude, hes riding fixed

    to ridiculous

  • realy moved me!

  • That must be a powerful leg

  • Good for you...I know what you mean about being free when your on your bike...I feel the same way....More people should ride a bike......

    Peace to ya

  • you think nyc could have gave a reward for saving a life,oh my bad, you have to jump on a train track for that

  • they won't give him a leg because they say its a "luxury" what the fuck. the man is a bike messenger in new york city with only one fucking leg. greedy assholes. and this is inspiring, I'm going to ride today and be thankful i have both legs!

  • Good call. Ride on!

  • Ride on!

  • absoulutely amazing, you r a cycling god!

  • Good on you mate. Keep up the great work.

  • Props to Dex , damn man your crazy but skilled!

  • :)

    :)

  • RESPECT FOR THIS MAN

  • wow, lost a leg to save a kid! guy is a hero

  • one leg riding pioneer

  • that guy is BADASS!

  • How inspirational. The scum at the insurance company should just give him a fake leg already.

  • I'd like to see this guy in a ass kicking competition.

  • R.E.S.P.E.C.T

  • That man is pure inspiration

  • nice one, i see what you did there

  • rustypirat3 = loser

  • Anyone who "Really" rides in NYC, knows this man. A true vet in the game!!

  • Thats a man!

  • impressive ^^

  • i would lend u my leg

  • impressive

  • dudes the shit.. he took the risk to save that kid

  • I cross threaded my pedal once and my pedal fell off, so I biked 5miles home. Its  doable if you have toe clips or a fixed gear bicycle because you have to get the pedal back up. I imagine bicycling with one leg is much easier on a fixed gear.

  • This guy is freaking amazing. He is following the american dream as it was meant to be.

  • No, he is not letting anything stop him from enjoying his life even with losing his leg.

  • It's probably more reality than your small mind could hope to dream off. At least he is doing something positive, unlike you.

  • rock on man your a real American pulling you self up

  • fixed too.

  • this guy rocks!

  • wow what a positive guy. mad props

  • i admire you man

  • this shows that everyone can accomplish someting

  • Man, you're great!

  • Wow

  • you're just jealous he's more happy with one leg than you are with two

  • your a twat trying to be controversial right now

  • ha haaa haaaaaa

  • he is crazy!

  • i admire this guy.

  • my hats off to you man keep it up and do be carefull good speed

  • Dude! Live hard, rock on, ride fast.

  • Frickin' amazing guy.

  • good on 'im

  • We should start of fund to buy this GUY a LEG.. He could have kept on begging but he decided to GO TO WORK instead.. We should definitely get this dude a CYBER LEG.. He would KICK ARSE THEN even more than he does now

  • Truly.

  • @flyby7a

    I'd almost rather help him take off one of his crank arms. That way he'd have a theft-proof bike.

  • wow! thats a real insperation
