paralympic games athens final 800m.ll T12 world record 1:53,

[CentsTwo]

for all those asking they are low vision

[LukeReed627]

What is worse is that the Paralympics excludes events for people with extreme disabilities - and understandably many of them are quite bitter about it and hate the Paralympics - perhaps they are not aesthetically pleasing enough for the organisers...

[TYLerlittmann]

all of your are messed up, sayin they are normal, its obvious they are not.

[TheIBOOMTiNGtv]

LOL at the black dude at 0:20

[1nicknick599]

@TheIBOOMTiNGtv dude stfu hes like blind faggot

[AgTFXCRunner]

WTF are wrong with these guys? Shit, I might as well run in that race...

[Footey222]

Their problem is the need to run an excessive amount

[zygi14]

Well 1119 seems to be wandering a bit. Makes me feel bad, I can never help but feel sorry for people with disabilities =(

[kopk888]

only 5 people?lol

[dylanryanshiz]

i would be on the groud dying after that

[467076]

rofl at 0:24 he almost fell

[mlane5595]

ummm well i can run a 6:50 mile well its not good so i have so trainning to do im 13

[lakash123]

@mlane5595 my mile is 6:10 im a 14 yr old girl... that is really good !!! are u a boy or girl?

[spuddy315]

i agree, that is pretty good if they cant see more than 2 metres away, however i am 13 and at the moment my best time for 800m is 2.07. im hoping to get under 2mins when im 15.

[racketer]

nobody gives a fuck

[ATTY487]

im 14 and get about 2:03 - 2:02 but if you keep training you will break 2 mins when your 15.

[snowstorm094]

@ATTY487 rofl im 16 and i run a 2:14 =/

i think i might need to start training hardcore

[NYGiantsfan123]

@snowstorm094 i ran a faster time my freshmen year, no one cares.

@ ATTY487 Cool story broskie, no one cares.

[ddduncan7]

@NYGiantsfan123 thats really good, but are you disabled? didnt think so. think before you speak, you probably offended some people.

[NYGiantsfan123]

@ddduncan7 Are you disabled yourself? Read the comments of the people who i was responding too, try not to be so quick with your words, and maybe you should think before you type.

[melovetorun]

What is their disability?Does anybody know?They look normal.

[sgftrackie13]

agreed

[reardoski]

they are visually inpaired, they can not see things more then 2 m meters away..

[racketer]

sight

[farameer9]

@melovetorun there all blind

[LiamProbert]

for a 12 year old that is brilliant

[asainasain6969]

and i don't mean that to the vid i mean that to chokefries

[798lalande]

Just wondering what the disability is

[ChokeFries]

they make it look so easy

[ChokeFries]

i am 12 years old and i have run the 800m 4 times:

1st attempt: 2 minutes 57 secounds

2nd attempt: 3 minutes 17 secounds

3rd attempt: 2 minutes 54 secounds

4th attempt: 2 minutes 41 secounds

can someone please tell me, is this a good time for my age?

thanks

[Winston408]

For your age i'd say that is not bad at all. 2:41 thats quite good keep running and bringing it down.

[ChokeFries]

thank you very much for your advice :)

[Winston408]

no prob

[798lalande]

if you're a girl that's excellent, if you're a guy that's normal. Thing to remember is that guys get significantly stronger every year.

[ben1996123]

yeah thats good,im 13 i cant do under 5 mins

[MachikiRox]

LOL A toddler can run under 5 mins. im 13, only been doing athletics for a couple of weeks, got 3.22

[ben1996123]

yeah, but i fail

[asainasain6969]

ur times are decent they aren't way fast... but they rn't slw.. u should work on it becuase u sound like u could do it pretty good. do the 400 i think you would be good at that..talk to me and i might be able to give u some tips somtime

[ChokeFries]

thanks very much for your advice...i will try the 400m sometime

[LARABOB2007]

Dude for a 12 year old thats pretty good. When I was 12 i ran a 2:52 and today im 16 on the edge of a 2 flat but u have to keep training.

[ChokeFries]

just did a 2:34 yesterday :)

[Tylerbmlss]

@ChokeFries lol when i was 12 i could only do like 4 minutes and 7 seconds in the 800m and now i do like 2 minutes and 14 seconds and i am 16 so you will be fine

[bulldog5210]

That was really fast but...how were those guys disabled?

[BombHillsNotTests]

really amazing!

[sorenbraybrook]

they're amazing :)

[bionicboy11]

don't ever call any one a retard its wrong. they are fantastic people showing that through athletics that they can overcome there disabilities.

[Shane444888]

i dont get it how are these guys paralympions. Are they retarded?

[trackstr400]

amazing tha parapalegics are in better shape than the average american...

[IIJakethesnakEII]

you mean way better shape

[Lyndehouse]

i wish this video stayed up--it is inspirational as i was not a handicapped person, won loads of races and only had a 1:55 pr

[Lyndehouse]

what's their disability?

[bluehighlighterfreak]

i think they have trouble walking or something. probably a spinal injury that makes it nearly impossible to walk or run. im just guessing though.

[iamreally9]

how come they dont run the bend in lanes?

[mwGmeiner]

in a lot of high school races and less serious international competition the 800 is just a waterfall start. These guys aren't going to kill each other trying to get out.

[crazymansam8]

0:25 when he falls of the track omg thats so hilarious yet makes me feel bad

[fjeew2k]

same here

[sparkl1nwat3r]

"nacheteavila" thanks for putting all these videos on. Very nice to watch people with spirit and strong commitments with their sports. Much respects. Pls post more of the paralympic sports!

[riessypiecy]

They don't even seem like they are handicapped even though they are, thats supposed to be a compliment

[MoneyMan169]

lol wudnt it be funny if they all got to the end and got told they ran the wrong way round the track so it didnt count :D haha

[lotusgtracer3]

no. not at all.

[SpinergyDude]

Yup these guys are the real deal everyone. And, I will see to it this get some more air time all over. :)

[IllinoisHighwayMan]

The paralympics should get more TV exposure in the United States.

[fjeew2k]

in norway and european countries too

[delic619]

these guys have no problems physically but they have sight problems. see he was wearing glasses. amazeing run though

[deco9987]

Really an inspiration, i wish i could run even a sub-1'55 800m.

Good race

[Thund3rxD]

seems like these guys are normal...

[nacheteavila]

hi we have a dissability we have a big problems in the eyes

[adridram77]

@Thund3rxD haha they probably have one finger slightly smaller than the others so they call it paralympics

[stefanstefan81]

a bit slow

[morioh]

That's because its the Paralympic.

They all have some kind of disability

[nacheteavila]

hi we have a dissability we have a big problems in the eyes
