If you are a man and watch this and NOT cry, then you are not a real man.

At minute 5:05 Rick said "if anyone takes the time to get to know me, they'll realize I'm just like anybody else". NOT TRUE. You are much more inspirational & motivating than just about ALL of us! You care. You're brave. You take action. You're living a life for other. You're a man for others. #respect

I am a man and I can't swim a lap on my pool, run a block or bike a mile - let alone doing all that while carrying a person with me.

I am a father and "I don't think" I can do half of the things Dick has done for his son.

Dick, you are a true inspiration for mankind and a leading model of fatherhood.

I will try to be like you - and I don't know if I will accomplish nearly 1/10th of what you have accomplished - but i will set you as a role model.

Thanks man!

This is what humans should be like..but as dick said..95% are dead... Including me....before I ve read and saw this. God bless you both.

Dick Hoyt looks a little like Adolf Hitler. Other than that, I really enjoyed this inspirational video.

SupreEmueller, Indomitable69 comments were idiotic. There is not doubt of that. But your rationalization of slavery in America is equally challenged. You seem to have some real animosity toward African Americans. Your use of the N-word underscores that fact. This video was a testament to a man's love and commitment for his son. It shouldn't be sullied by the ignorance and racism displayed by you AND Indomitable69. You both should grow up.

did u was slave? did u was hurted for years??? If u get a normal life and enter to this video just to put ur frustration, please get off out here

[45jellicoe]

you are both petty and repugnant - perhaps you should both shut up. This story isn't about slavery or racism - it is about the human spirit and recognizing each other's abilities. Just sad that you both have degraded yourselves.

[Keepers86]

No excuses anymore!

[SuperEmueller]

dude you are an ignorant self centered African American. You race gets a whole month to preach your bullshit. let the slave thing go. yes it was wrong but before America practiced slavery it was happening in in Africa where tribes would enslave other tribes. grow up. this has nothing to do with your niggas n shit and slavery. this man is looking out for his kid not his slave. fucking idiot

[Carl Vaax]

Well, there goes every single excuse I've ever had. This is amazing.
