Big Tune 2008 Underdog: Rob Bates

Last year, for Rob Bates, cliches like "life and death" and "do or die" had a literal meaning. At the young age of 17 he struggled with cancer and is still currently undergoing chemo therapy. However this Cinderella from Chicago found his glass slipper standing in line at the Red Bull Big Tune Show.

Now it's off to New York to battle in the finals. Check out more on Red Bull Big Tune and how you can get involved at http://redbullbigtune.com .

I really like this kids attitude. I have a feeling this is not the end of his story. Congratulations to him for fighting and winning the battle against cancer. Damn, cadaver bone. I feel you.
