  • I saw this movie tonight and it is very funny, yet sad at parts. Darius and his crew came to my school and they are so cool. I hope all of you visit there website and buy a movie!!

  • Saw this film tonight. It was great. Thanks.

  • I have to do a presentation in my class next week on anything. Normally I'd skip that day because of stage fright. But I can't wait to spread the word about this cause to my classmates. Darius deserves it.

  • Spread the word to get Darius' message heard.

  • My best friend works at a gas station near a high school that DGW had visited. On that night, I was visiting my friend when a large RV pulled in, 5 minutes to closing time. hearing Daniel, the driver, talk about the cause as he filled up the vehicle, gave me chills and forever changed my life.

  • my new favorite movie! well, one of them lol. i bought a dvd and a "canootersnooter" t-shirt!

  • this was our diversity film this year and i got to meet Darius!!!! he is so sweet and i bought one of the dvds and a t-shirt

  • we just watched this in video graphics class and it was an amazing movie. Our video graphics class is now talking about having a fundraiser and have a screening of the movie to the whole school. Good luck darius!

  • That would be so amazing! Let us know if we can help...

  • visiting** my bad

  • DGW is visited my school tonight and everyone here can't wait to meet Darius and the rest of the crew. Darius is a valiant person who has accomplished so much, and inspired many, including myself. GO DARIUS!

  • When darius came to clemson, it changed the way i viewed the world. it used to always be me, me, me. but meeting him, giving him a hug, and be around the people that showed the nation the selflessness and the friendship of them. i want to do all i can to find a cure to DMS. go dgw! y'all rock =D

  • DMS? Dont you mean DMD?

  • yes... goodness i have issues typing. thanks for catching my mistake.

    still in love with his story.. definitely stuck with me.

  • yeah the D is right next to the S, I just realized... This was a powerful movie, i have DMD myself and i was inspired, i am 14, i just stopped walking 3 months ago.

    We will all as a people trip over the cure hopefully :[. Thats a nervous face!

    There are also people who dont care, i am sorry for them. People ask me if i need my wheelchair. Being smart i said "no, i stole it from someone who needed it, what do you think?"

    Oh well, what are we gonna do?

  • we can keep trying... keep having hope. i wish there was more i could do that just donate money...and i'm glad you can still keep a really great sense of humor, even when people are ignorant. =}. and don't be nervous. i think things are changing rapidly...have hope.

  • there is so much more that you can do than just donate money. All you have to do is get people to watch the film. Have you seen the whole film?

  • daruis is coming to my school next week, we have raised hundreds to the charlie fund (daruis has a 5 year old brother and is trying to raise money for him to save him).we also donated some of the money for the making of the DVDS. The whole school has seen the movie.

  • 5565kr, you are incredible. We can't wait to visit!

  • what skool do u go to?

  • I'm pumped this is getting so much coverage now. Buy this movie people, you won't regret it!

  • I am totally donating! This movie looks incredibly moving and life-changing.

  • It made me cry yet again. $20 is a small price to pay for such an incredible addition a film library, not to mention the other reason to buy the film. I've already given many as gifts.

  • LETS GO GUYS, LETS DO THIS!! 20 dollars that you would otherwise use for yourself, you could use it to actually save lives. 20 dollars comes easy, very easy so let your next 20 dollar purchase be this dvd and actually get something worth your money. it will definitely help those people in need, and yourselves

  • Uh wow!

    What did you do with your life today?

  • This is one of the absolute best and most inspirational movies and undertakings I have ever seen or know of.

  • This documentary will leave you speechless!It has won 28 film festival awards, has landed interviews on Nightline, The Today Show, and Ellen DeGeneres. There is a long list of locations across the country the entire crew will be visiting for interviews/screenings. NO big corporation or movie distributor is doing their marketing--IT IS ALL WORD OF MOUTH. Please consider helping them tell this story by buying a DVD/hosting a screening in your city. You won't be disappointed!

  • what is his disease called?

  • Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

    Please buy a copy of the film. It's funny, extremely entertainting and very inspirational.

  • jjjjjjjj

  • kkkkkkkkkkk

  • Duchenne Muscular Distrophy

  • I lost 4 cousine because duchen myopathy, it is good to see some one is making the best out of this horrible disease

    go dariush

  • Pimp my wheelchair??, not to sure it will make a second series?, but you could try? # sitting on 22's, smoke some weed?#.

  • i wld probably want 2 cry if i watched that movie

  • You will, but you will laugh twice as much. I'm from there home town and have watched it over 12 times, it is THAT good.

  • Same here. I watched it in my Drama class at UGA and then the guys came in and we had a huge group discussion. By far the best (and most rememberable) movie I saw that entire semister.

  • go darius!!!!!

  • I am very happy for Darius, for his mother, and for his brother watching down on him. I'm glad that Darius and his friends are taking so many adventures in as they work to beat Duchenne's muscular distropy. Thank you for showing us this!

  • God Bless you all, you are in my prayers. I can't wait to help, if there is a cause worth dedicating your life to, this is it.

    Best of Luck, I'll do everything I can to help!

  • pimp my wheelchair

    brought to you by mtv.

    the channel with no music

  • dats my first name,get it why put in kingDARIUS1996

  • hola qe  tal

  • RESPECT.

  • just brings a tear to my eye....

  • fghfgjg

  • this was pretty much the movie of epic win.

    go darius! ^^

    go darius goes west~

  • nice vid

  • i'm kinda confused. is the money going towards pimping his ride or to make more dvd's?

  • They were trying to get his wheelchair pimped in the movie. The money from DVD sales goes to research for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

  • The goal of the DGW Foundation is to sell 1 million copies of Darius's Award winning film in 1 year. By selling a copy of their documentary, they have the power to devote $17 of every sale to promising DMD research. If one million DVD's are sold: at least one million people will become aware of the disease, at least $17 million dollars will fund DMD research, and because DVD's don't go bad, a part of Darius will live forever. The year began 9/1/08 and will end on Darius's 19th bday, 9/27/09.

  • What a fabulous video! I hope everyone passes this along!

  • keep it up

  • I think this could work. Everyone buying the dvd needs to forawrd the video to everyone you know in your address books and so forth.

    If I got this sent to me in email I would watch and buy the dvd. But it tneeds to come from people we already know. How many do you know? 5, 10, 15, 100? 1000? Go for it! If everyone sends this to their friends and such the goal could be reached in a week.

  • This is what the featured video box should be used for! This was touching! Darius keep up the fight!

  • Wonderful!

  • i love you nicole :) very much

  • can anyone plz tell me the name of the first song playing when this clip starts.. between this song , the commentary from the video .. just makes me want to break down. Live life to the fullest you know. Me and my gf just ordered this video to btw, cant wait to watch it . Plz post the name of that first song :)

  • it's self-composed by the director of the documentary logan smalley.

  • i think it's actually everday - carly commando

  • I saw the documentary in the town next to me, really inspiring. Brought me to tears.

    Great kid.

  • I watched the dvd with my 18year old son who also has Duchenne.I was scared of how he would take it but all it did was make him laugh & filled him with inspiration.Together we can kill this disease by supporting Darius

  • interesting vid

  • This story is NOT sad...it's hugely inspirational! You will have a BIG smile at the end! And there may be some happy tears as well! Everyone just HAS to buy this DVD and see this flick. There's a reason it has won almost 30 awards at film festivals all over the world!!!

  • ive seen it... its not sad, i promise! look at the other vids on their channel they r HILARIOUS lol

  • im gonna buy this, although i dont know if ill watch it because its so sad and depressing by the looks of it. God bless him anyways, and everyone else in his situation.

  • Here's a riddle,

    If there were five men in a bar and two of them left, what percentage of them like to piss themselves?

    Many regards and tribulations,

    Kate pisslips

  • So the money is going into research.

    Its one big advertisement for a cure.

    The $17 dollar donation is a noble thing

    But it doesn't cost $3 to make more DVD's.

    it costs less than 3 cents to make another.

  • true, but they have to have funding to promote the movie, and travel...etc. They can't just do it all for free.

  • I love it! Great documentary!

  • The vehicle is moving!!!! Buy a DVD- or 10- or 20!!

  • is that a trailer? I feel like they should clarify either at the beginning or the end so there is no confusion

  • LOL this is not a trailer, it is a vehicle.

  • lol right back at you bro, it is a DvD.. you're the vehicle..

  • I am soooooo buying this DvD

  • This looks very inspiring. I really want to see this!

  • ssssssssssssssss

  • sou sad story but i will buy a cd

  • I had a close cousin who died of MD at 16 and so I know what it's like to look into a young person's eyes when they say "I hope they find a cure this year".

    I hope and pray this will be the year.

    Everyone please order.

    It's too late for Joey.

    Don't let it be too late any more.
