[BlanchardAmy]

I have been so lucky to run the Boston Marathon -alongside (well actually far behind) last year 2011 and again this year 2012....and have been forever changed by their undying, unconditional love!!! The have taught my entire family that the only limits we have are self imposed!!! They will forever be my heroes!!! Love you both...and Kathy (the unsung hero) behind this incredible men!!!

[LosAngelesFresh1]

Guys, people are going to hit the dislike button JUST to see how pissed off people get... stop feeding into them and they'll go away... and this dad doesn't do all this for his son to see how many Likes he will get on YouTube, so at the end of the day the haters don't even matter.

[thenazgullord]

thats the dumbest story ive ever heard, he is not doing sports thats fucking stupid

[MrModifythis]

@thenazgullord why do you think thats stupid... not trying to start an argument but, what makes you think thats stupid?

[thenazgullord]

@MrModifythis if i were in this boy's condition i would find another way to be creative and not a sport which requires physical strength. besides having someone run and push you in a wheelchair is even further away from the idea of a sport.ie if stephen hawking took up basketball for handicapped every one would laugh at him but look at him now...

[skyllakos]

who is the big motherfucker ashole who pressed the dislike button?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

[roukohimas]

THIS IS THE REAL SUPERMAN!!!

[beggar247]

in the dictionary where you find the word 'dad' - definition >>> Dick Hoyt

[88ceejay]

now thats what you call a real iron man!!

[jamesamazing628]

I know that strengths and weaknesses, it's a simply a part of being human. I just realised that nothing is impossible in this world, this video is my inspiration and will definitely help me to pursue and achieve my greatest dreams in my life. In addition, I had tears on my eyes when I was watching this inspirational and motivational video, I am now determined to become more confident.

[Dykefalos]

you gotta be FUCKING KIDDING ME!!! unauthorized wmg!!! KISS MY FUCKIN ASS!!!

[popuuupop]

FUCK WMG!

FUCK WMG!

FUCK WMG!

FUCK WMG!

thats all I have to say

[janettehanzelka]

There is another video with the same interview called Father of the Century. Good lucj.

[djtoto72]

YOU TUBE!!!! just another puppet more from the government..........if you don't believe me just see what happens to my post!!!! FUCK WMG!

cheers! :)

[paulaotrtrtrtr]

Very bad decision Mr You tube, this is the moment you must no cut in audio, this is a special moment a very very rare moment you see a very specila kindness and true love bettween two persons, sorry if i can't explain better whatt I feel in my heart, I am Portuguese and I can't explain very wellmy feelings, but shame on you, You tube!!!

[bonobo2go]

The audio has been disabled - just like the young chap in the chair.....only he had no say over his disability. WMG disabled the audio because this video will not bring them profit.

SHAME ON YOU WMG.....and may your Lord look favourably on you at your time of judgement.

[willemard]

The message and inspiration in this video is great. Lucky there are more posts of this one.

To the people of WMG I have to say:

Music not being heard is not beeing sold

So al the crab about stealing the music, look at it from an other prospective.

If people hear music they like they gona want to buy the stuf...what they don't hear they don't buy. But it's not realy about the music, it about someones ego thats crying out loud for money

[blakkelure]

Whomever reported this video for containing music not approved by a big company that has more money anyone can dream for I hereby clear a dickhead.

[larbacmc]

I agree with you.

[HuNEsZiLaRd]

God Bless You!

[danielingram]

I am literally speachless when i watch this.

I sit in amazment that there is still people like rick and dick in this world.

This father and son just gave me a whole new perspective on life/love and family all together.

besides that you all pretty much said it all.

[jc5465]

This story is so inspirational i invited everybody i knew to my house we watched this video we poured out crying cause of the love

that this father has for his son

[DoThereIsNoTry]

We hear the words 'hero' and 'awesome' every day - this is what those words really mean.

To those that post crude, moronic or juvenile comments - 'what have YOU done today to make you feel proud?'

[cantfind]

when i see ppl like these, it reminds me what a truly wonderful world we live in..

[pvinpvin]

what a spirit lifting video... thank you Rick Hoyt. You are a true hero.

[nick4473hs]

i really repect both of them god bless their family

[fivefivenineone]

Love this story! God bless Hoyt family.

[cammon88]

this man and his son will have a special place in the kingdom of heaven

[tehUBERn00blet]

I wonder what it feels like to see fan-made music videos of your accomplishments...

[SilverCrusader2]

Amazing...

[GotNothinSon]

Very touching...

[tehUBERn00blet]

I hope you get a stop sign shoved up your already-scarred-by-anal-sex asshole.

[Dansllvn]

I just can't find the words. It really makes you think doesn't it? Wow.  Tears and smiles at the same time. God bless you all.

[mmatazo]

man respect !

[mugengaia]

man...just stumbled on this randomly...

and for once in such long time, I never took notice for all that my father did give to me.

I was pretty much raised in a dysfunctional family where the two parent argued endlessly. But I hated my father even knowing how unconditionally loving he was towards his children.

Boy am I crying in tears right now...

This video made me realize how loving my father was to me.

And I will never be able to thank him...

[kduggan91]

What's important is that you realize this now. It's never to late to thank him. If he's gone, I'm positive he knows how you feel.

[kickkboxer]

yeah... i hope i can only be a half a father like him!! but he is the living example for love!! and now i can only imagine how great our god in heaven could be! i cried also!

i hope one day he will get the honor to be nominated for the father of the year!! god bless u man!!!

god bless u guys!!

[thegymfreak]

I can only hope to be half of a man as him. He should be nominated for father of the year.

[cessenzemarie]

teary eyessssssss :'S what a great dad...

[analim32]

I saw this in church once and I cried!

and now my desk is filled with tears again!

what an amazing father! so inspiring...!

[absyus]

whew! awesome,heartwarming and inspiring story.. hope this gets to the bottom of the father's.

[wowhamoodoo]

i wish my dad was like that

[fuckDictatorIsayas]

i felt your pain sis/bro.i know you can't help it since its beyond control.but what i wanna to say is that just be the best father or mother you can be to ur son or daughter.peace

[ilovepink1078]

Much respect to this family. This is so much more than inspiration

[onsightrecovery]

[applesnbananas11]

Much respect to this family. This is so much more than inspiration.

[goin4ad8go]

i cried for the first time in 6 years watching this. i dont cry easily.

[nate92407]

THIS video has inspired me to keep on going on helping my children till the end I hope one day people that are able to do things will appreciate life and be greathfull for what they have just like me god have mercy on us god bless you and keep on running sincerly a mother and the race of life

[Cosmicrippe]

dang made me cry

[kimberlivideo]

I love that video and think its the greatest inspiration

[NaColts8]

wow this is amazing... even are gym teacher showed it to us!

[jmjbreezin]

Love is all about God because God is Love. You can't love anybody without the love of God in your heart. God bless you Rick and Dick. More power to the both of you.

[urho88]

Talk about egoism and self-centered view of world. Atheists and agnostics don't love other humanbeings? You're both laughable and disgustingly strait-laced person and i take that kind of phrases as an attack against people who see the world differently. Take your head out of your a** and stop insulting people.

Video is touching. That's how to treat other people who cant care about themselves. Huge respect.

[jmjbreezin]

God bless you brother obviously you took my comment the wrong way. Lot of respect for Dick and Rick. I love the video, it touched my heart. All I meant is that God's love is flowing in the heart of the Father for him to care for his son that way.

[aabbo89]

respect!

[hoemmed]

respect to that.

[dferrer7]

Great father as our parents..

[ambersoccerXD]

Wow, thats amazing.

I'm tearing up right now.

The fact that he loves his son so much.

Some people don't even take time out for their kids.

He is a realy Hero<3

[tremblayn1967]

Vous êtes SPLENDIDES ....

FÉLICITATIONS !

[cleo5340]

Mr. Hoyt is an inspiration and hero, not only to his son but to those of us fathers who hope we can be inspiring heroes to our sons too!

[philihuarsi]

...por favor alguien puede subir el video con relato en español ...porfavorrrr!!!!!!!!1

[mikesaidwhat]

Deseo que podría ayudar con el español pero el mejor que podría hacer era traducir su comentario usando los pescados de Babel. Si lo encuentro en español lo fijaré

[philihuarsi]

Es un verdadero ejemplo de padre!.. ejemplo de amor!... y ejemplo para toda esa gente que siempre pone excusas para no hacer las cosas...

[victorbluu]

This is difficult to believe, well, it´s real, I am astonished, great guy, great father

[Dnab55]

I cried so much when i saw this

[ROCKERFELLA65]

God Bless. x

[ilikeu6]

ok. not to be mean. but this has nothing to do with god. this guy shows love with for his kid! and its sooo beautiful. it shows how much a father will love and put his own body into harms way, just to give his son a good life. this movie made turned my life around. these two made me think of life, and there motto is YOU CAN and that says alot!!!

[EVANGHELIC]

My friend, It really TALKS about the GREATEST love ever shown for the mankind: GOD's LOVE. This video is just a pale exemple comparing to the love shown to us by GOD HIMSELF! Be blessed!

[HighFlyinAFGuy]

You're not being mean, ilikeu6, you're absolutely right, it has nothing to do with god, it's solely about the man's love for his son. Even in the interview, when she calls him a hero, the dad says "I just love my family." HE doesn't make any allusions to a similarity to god, so why should anyone else.

[Y0ungWi11iam]

i have to give a speech on this subject tomorrow...Im terrified ^.^

[elbaboe]

THis is truly inspiring!! This was perfect timing for me to see, because of what i am going through. Thank you Lord!

[desorden150]

This made me cry.

[PunkMartyr]

I watch this video sometimes just to remind me of what good man is capable of

[MsMcLovin89]

What a inspiration It does prove to never give up, especially a loved one God does work in miracles. may rgis father and son be blessed

[emilgui]

wow just incredible! as she says he is more than a father,he is a hero!the moment he got excited and spilt a tear made me spill some too.how much potencial can a human soul have?here is the answer

[marinebiologist411]

[JAACHA]

What an incredible father that gives his all for his son. Sort of like John3:16!

[dannyphillips88]

It is a testament to the story that the comments are all positive on here. Such an incredible video is entirely deserving.

[plselvam]

lifes battles dont always go to the faster or stronger man;but sooner or later to the man who thinks he can.

this in spiration will take us to great heights,but can we do atleast one percent of this for someone who needs us.

[chryzangel]

im really so touched. 5 years ago a had a baby affected with a down's syndrome, she died after a year and a half. im missing her so much...

[MsMcLovin89]

Sorry to hear this JUst be strong and hang in there we always wonder why things happen god does not do things that we can not handle, my saying is he needes a strong little angel girl to help him in heaven

[jools92126]

This world needs more people like Dick & Rick. Love is all we need. The world would be better if we all loved more.

[cocoachile]

Estas son las historias de vida que realmente vale la pena comentar y alabar, ya que no solo nos dejan una tremenda lección de amor, sino que ademas nos dejan un ejemplo de vida, tanto a los que somos padres como a todos los que tenemos una familia.

Gracias por su ejemplo de vida a todos, padre, madre, hijo y el resto de la familia, ya que para mi al menos, son todos heroes desde el momento en que deciden vivir la vida para hacer feliz a su hijo.

Un fuerte abrazo y gracias por su ejemplo.

[RAQUELMU]

Después de ver este vídeo, relativizo mis pequeños problemas y siento que puedo seguir enfrentándome a las pruebas que la vida me pone, con motivación y alegría. No hacerlo, es un insulto para las personas del vídeo. Se lo debo.

[mikesaidwhat]

Gracias por sus comentarios, ellos se aprecian mucho

[stevenseagalbkn]

Después de ver este video, creo que lo heroes no son ciencia ficción, realmente existen, y sus super poderes superan nuestra imaginacion. Muy bonita historia.

[mikesaidwhat]

Gracias por sus comentarios, ellos se aprecian mucho

[apyles]

This is a example for every man and woman, of how should we be treating not only our sons and daughters but how we as human beings should treat others. Thank you Mr. Hoyt you are a example for many fathers like me to be better and to push my self to the limit everyday in benefit of my son.

Thank you.

[OrlandosLover]

So inspirational. It brought tears to my eyes. I completely sobbed through the video set to "I Can Imagine." This video is more upbeat. I was so thankful that someone posted a little history on Rick and Dan, because I was curious to know more about them. Thanks!

[mikesaidwhat]

My pleasure, watching them has inspired me to enter and complete Ironman South Africa in April 2008. And to do it for a cause higher than my own ego.

Love can conquer all things.
