  • Please can you visit Hong Kong? We need your motivation and humor =)

  • This is really inspiraational. :) Thank you Josh.

  • I love Josh Sundquist. So much. That's all.

  • I gotta cut my leg off! xD

  • I'm trying to convince my school to hire you to talk to us! I hope they do!

    (-:

  • USA! proud of ya

  • @Domo230 he don't use one cause his leg is still sore

  • @Domo230 hey

  • 15 dislikes? :/

  • "Uh, sir, there seems to be a problem with your leg."

    "Oh yeah no kidding, I DON'T HAVE ONE." lol!!!

  • omg! i'm tearing up! ^_^ so inspiring! i want ur book! :D

  • Why doesn't he use a prosthetic leg?

  • @Domo230

    He does from time to time, but generally he finds it clumsy

  • @Domo230 the nerve endings in the amputated part are sensitive and it hurts him he said it in a video

  • Love you Josh!

  • " Body parts aren't like Pokemon, you can't collet them all." - KassemG

  • awesome..I gotta find  7chobbers7 comment..Let the quest BEGIN!

  • I love how theres a whole argument on here anyway josh ur amazing and cuss words are nasty

  • Dude, you are more than inspiring!

  • amazing ... im in love

  • Josh, I love you!!!! You are awesome! I told my mother that I wanted to learn how to ski, and she said skiing was hard. I told her if you could do it with one leg, I'm pretty sure that I could do it with two. Love you again! Keep on limping. :)

  • @LordPipweed Oh, just shut up, honestly no one gives a shit about your opinion. Josh is an amazing inspiration, I would totally recommend his book to you except I assume you probably don't know how to read. Get a life and stop posting worthless comments on great videos.

  • I watched this 5 times already... Still love it

  • I laughed so hard when he said "Uh sir there seems to be a problem with your leg" "Yeah no kidding, I dont have one, thank you"

  • Awe Man I love you. You are truely amazing

  • this is awesome

  • I love you man... i've no words to say... you lifted my spirit.... i owe you...I have many worries... but as you say... we can approach in two ways... I decided to stick on my dreams.

  • I would love to have you at our school but I would burst out in tears the entire time

  • See that dislike bar? Because I don't. J

    Josh, I give you the best wishes in the future, even though you are doing great right now :) You have +1 Sub, Like, and Favorite.

  • @cymrutroll Um ok then that makes sense...

  • I love you, man.

  • @cymrutroll lool, that made me laugh

  • @LordPipweed What the fuck have you been smoking. You're probably some dumbass jock who hates reading and slacks off at school. If he's a disgrace to mankind then you're a piece of douchebag shit. You're judging books by their covers, which is ironic because you don't read books fucker. So just because a girls username has XBox in it makes her an emo disabled orphan nerd. Listen to yourself! What the fuck is your problem. Even I know you're a dumbass mother fucker and I'm fucking 12!

  • @KatAngelAri LOOL A 12 year old hahahah what a fuckin lowlife, u need parental lock on ur computer u little midget fuck off twat, ur probably some fat little nerd who sits at home reading books haha how sad, u must have no friends, no family. ur dads ashamed of u hes going to drink his own piss and die. what kinda lowlife reads BOOKS lmao, i bet uve never seen a movie before hahaha.

  • @LordPipweed First: Not a midget Second: I only weigh 90 pounds Third: Yeah I'm a bit of a nerd and im proud. Fourth: I almost never have time to read books at home Fifth: I have 137 facebook friends that are all my good friends at school Sixth: I have a huge family and i have a mom dad brother and sister Seventh: My dad isnt ashamed of me. I'm in the International Baccluereate Program (for people who are smart, the oppsite of you) and GT (Gifted and Talented) Eighth: I've seen tons of movies

  • @KatAngelAri So there you go. Eight pieces of evidence why that statement was wrong

  • @KatAngelAri i dont give a fuck about ur shitty life u muppet, shut up bitch i dont care if ur a member of some stupid baguette program u fucking cunt shut ur mouth fatty

  • @LordPipweed Once again, not a muppet, not fat, don't have a shitty life, it's a free country (free speech), and it's not a bread program dumbass. Nice comeback. You basically just said a bunch of stupid insults and said shut up.

  • @KatAngelAri pahaha what a dumb bitch, u just repeated urself again u worthless cow. u must have issues if ur watching a video of a man with one leg lmao. ur families probably all disabled and diseased with deformities u stupid inbred cow. i can tell by looking at ur picture what a stupid little slut u are. i bet u cant wait to get raped just like most women u pathetic cunt.

  • @LordPipweed Ok once again, No one in my family is disabled or deformed or diseased. Not inbred, not a slut, not a cow, don't wish to be raped, and not a cunt. Oh, also most women don't want to be raped. I'm done talking to you, you pathetic internet troll.

  • @LordPipweed He's a troll; just ignore him. (Trolls usually have no actual life :p)

  • Josh you are so amazing, i luv so much to watch you .thank u so much

  • @lordpipweed hey gayboy u come out of the closet yet? Bet you are crippled and bullied for it.

  • HAHAHAH omg, i would love to be there and throw something at his head and laugh at him try to keep his balance hahah

  • @LordPipweed OK your bein a freakin butthead!!!!!!!!! This guy lost his leg to cancer and he's a INSPIRATION!!!!!!!! I read his book and I'm reading it again!!!!

  • @XboxGamerGurl27 oh my god. what a fucking tragic piece of shit you are, i dunno who i feel more sorry for. the retard in the video or ur parents. ur mum and dad must be fucking ashamed. u play xbox and u read books hahaha how fucking sad. shows u obviously have no life and no friends what are u some disabled emo? i can see how this kinda video would inspire someone like u, disabled bitch with no paretns hahaha.

  • @LordPipweed How old are you? Nine? Just because he's missing a leg doesn't make him any less of a human being. People read books and use gaming systems all the time, and it doesn't make them "disabled emo bitches". How you managed to pull that out of your ass is beyond me. Before you make a dipshit out of yourself, you should think about what you're saying.

  • @zmuell pfff haha look at this guy, what a loser lol. u obviously dont know what ur on about u fucking lowlife shut the fuck up and dont respond u dickbrain. i was saying that only nerds/gay people read books, plus only nerdy kids play xbox, and shes an emo. thats such a failure of a combination so i was making fun of her, dont know where u came into it u sad bastard. and people like this guy in the video with missing limbs are just disgracing mankind, we dont need that fucking shit

  • @LordPipweed  shut up he rocks

  • Only now do I get the A-M-P-U-T-E-E at the end of your "... for math nerds" video's

  • I recommended you to my state advisor for our State Leadership Conference for HOSA this year :)

  • Hey josh, will you ever come to England?

  • I sent a request email to my principal. I REALLY hope that he hires you. If he does, I REALLY REALLY hope you don't mind coming to Florida.

  • im totally sending this to my principal!

  • Sending this to my principal and talking to my schools head pastor/chaplain! Fingers crossed! I'm sure they'll love you! I'm bringing your book along with me just in case they want to know more :D

  • @JoshSundquist I really want you to come to my school in Missouri! Every year we get a motivational speaker at the beginning of the year (we already had ours this year but We'd love another one) I really love your videos and speeches and would love for you to come!

  • You are a gift. Every time I'm have a low day I watch this video and it never fails to make me smile. Thank you so much Josh.

  • Ooooh. Just figured it out. Skiing is a winter sport. Winter Paralympics were in '06.

    Silly me!

  • Great talk! :)

    But, weren't the Paralympics in '04 and '08, and not '06?

  • I walk with a limp, and kids at my school always make fun of me for it. If they start it up again tthis year I'm going to say "Its not a limp. It's a pimp walk!"

  • you absolutely HAVE to come to my school!

  • You are so adorable Josh! You're such an inspiration to all and such a sweet and funny guy. I thought I was optimistic, but you beat me in that category! We all fall, but we have the choose whether to stand back up or to stay down. Nothing can stand in our way from what we want. We all can achieve if we believe. And you surely have proven that. Stay yourself! Oh and we should hangout sometime. :)

  • I love u John ur my hero!!! I love the sweeps also!!!

  • I want you to come to my school! School hasn't even started yet! How are you with 4-14 year-olds? x3

  • Josh, this is so awesome! jokes and examples to remind people of what they have.

  • 15 people are jack asses, and don't like this cause im pissed!

  • Amazing. 

  • Me and you should get together and go on a pimp walking session to that song.

  • if i werent in norway i would send this to my principal :3

  • come to England?

  • Come to Australia? Please? :3 i will send it to my year co-ordinator and principle...

  • I want to marry you. Now really, did any of your disaster dates heard you talk like this. I fall in love everytime I hear AND see your speechs. i love you very much.

    ( i hate that I'm just 14!!! :'''''''(

  • I want to marry you. Now really, did any of your disaster dates heard you talk like this. I fall in love everytime I hear AND see your speechs. i love you very much.

    ( i hate that I'm just 14!!! :'''''(

  • is the presentation you gave at the National FFA Convention a couple years ago? if so, you said one thing that really caught my attention and changed the way I look at things. when you said "sometimes the uniform you get is better than the one you wanted." it finally sank in some of the issues I was going through. you are awesome and i thank you!

  • Josh, when school starts again I am DEFINITELY contacting my principal about having you speak at my school :)

  • you made my week

  • I'm talking to my principle about this :3 Wish me luck!

  • would you be cool with coming to ireland?? :)

  • you dont want to come to england by any chance do you?

  • This Is 10000000000000000000000 times better than Dane Cook or any other Comedians!AWESOME!

  • omg...i was having a horrible day n i'm in a tough situation right now but when i saw this video you had me smiling and i even started clapping with everyone else in the video without even noticing...u made my day(: i love your energy and the way you look at life! i will never forget this video(: <3

  • Please come out to Herndon, VA! Our HS would love you!

  • hey josh can you come to privet schools or do you only do public cus i think we could afford you cus we are a orivet school

  • how would you like to come to Ottawa, Canada?

  • Man I really want you to come to my school. The only problem is that my school is made of 75% of people who think it is cool to do stupid stuff during convocations. They talk, scream, mock, embarrass, and make fun of the speakers. Man I need you to make them understand why you are the greatest speaker ever!!!

  • i would tell my principal to think about this, but my school is full of douch bags..... :/

  • could you do a video on your teenage years? im in high school and an amputee and it has been since kids can be harsh and ignorant and being a teenager, your self confidence goes down. was it easy for you?

  • tell me how to do teliportation

  • I just laughed cried, laughed then cried again.

  • Did you ever come to Wisdom Lane middle school in Levittown NY? 

  • would it be possible to come to england :) 

  • ill ask my principle if you could come even though we live in Dominican Republic 

  • it's funny that this video is supposed to fo to the schools principals and in the side you can see josh six pack XD

  • If I wasn't out of school I would show this to my principal. X3

  • I really am going to send this into my principal next school year.. the only thing is I'm afraid the stupid kids at my school will disrespect you and interrupt you during your speech, and I'd hate for that to happen because you're awesome...but I'll send this in anyway because I really want to hear you speak :)

  • Note: I myself am 12, but I want to make sure it would be reasonable for our group before I present it to my mom (who is the leader of the group)

  • Josh, there are no guarantees in this, but how expensive would it be to have you come out and speak for my homeschool group (of maybe 30 people ate most) in southern California? We've got a VERY low budget, but it would be a great experience for all of us kids. We range from toddler to alumni (21 or so), but most of us are in Junior High and Highschool so you'd have a good audience. I know you usually speak for larger crowds, but like I said: It would be a great experience for us.

  • "The whole is greater than the sum of it's parts" Looking for Alaska? 

  • This was truly amazing, so inspiring

  • This is amazing, really inspiring. :)

  • you should come to Canada i would love to meet u:)

  • hey josh, this is really amazing. i live in vancouver, canada. do you think you would be able to speak here? it would be awesome.

  • you made me laugh, you made me cry. Sent it to my principal!

  • I love you Josh!! Do you come to Canada to speak?

  • You made me LOL, and you made me cry.

    That was the most inspiring thing I've ever watched, you helped me get a different perspective of the problems I'm facing these days. I can't thank you enough.

  • i'd so love for someone as touching as you to come speak at my school. you'd lift the hearts of many people and show that if you can do the things you do anyone can. unfortunately. I'm in England in europe. but as long as you keep doing the things you do anywhere you do them youre an amazing person. and good luck with everything you'll do in your future.

  • Hey, just wondering, but has anybody told you that you kinda look like Jason Mraz? 

  • the close ups scare me... but the speech is great!

    

  • It's summer, do you think I should wait til the next school year to send it to my principal?

  • I just saw the comment about coming to australia, seriously... If you came to australia, it would be the best day of my life <3

  • I really love you to come to The Netherlands. I hope someday you will because I really want to meet you in person, but thats probably never going to happen =(

  • Would Houston be expensive!? :please say no!!!

  • would California be too far? yeah...i dunno where you live..soooo(: 

  • Josh would you come back to Colorado? even to a high school with only 400-500 students in HS? even if it was a K-12 but only speaking to the High School? Because Id LOVE if you came.

  • @JoshSundquist what a dream if you came to australia!!! pleaseee make it come true josh!

  • @JoshSundquist Could you come to Richmond Hill, Georgia?

  • Just sent in a request to my principal. FINGERS CROSSED!!

  • So inspirational I wish I lived in the USA :(

  • 2 questions can you come to canada and elmentry/junior high school

  • @JoshSundquist

    You're my inspiration. You have a disability, one leg. I am 13 years old and have a physical disability also. I was born with Spina Bifida. It mean I had a break in my spine when I was born. It effects a big part of my motor skills (I use a wheelchair) and some other nerve related issues are also caused.

    I just want to let you know you've made me so much more conferrable with myself. I'm not so "why me..." anymore and I just accept the fact that I am different.

    -Thanks josh!

  • you are amazing! 

  • do you use the same stories everytime? when you went to my school i heard this one, it was really funny

  • Although I do feel bad about your situation Josh, That's pretty fucked up of you to go cow-tipping. That shit ain't funny bro.

  • I am going to my dermatologist to be checked for melanoma soon, even though we're pretty sure I have it... This speech gave me the strength to accept the result, be it positive or negative. Thank you, Josh.

  • thank you i really needed this today.. anyone else having a horribly shitty week?

  • inspirational….wow

  • what school was this at? it looks familiar to my highschool auditorium

  • I would like to Know if He does speaches in Canada?

  • I read your book in like 3 days dude! You're so inspiring.

  • this is so sweet.

  • Even on bad days I like too think it could always be worse.

  • Woulda been awesome if you added in something including "In a van down by the river"!

    You are a pretty cool person, being able to laugh at yourself and I admire that!

  • the word 'cancer' must be taboo....

  • Hey JOsh...Was that at ASWEGO???? I don't go there ( I go nereby) but I just was there!

  • What douchebag goes cow tipping?? It's cruel as he'll. Dick.
