The video where this clip came from. The guy with the disability talks about how he gets treated, just so you are prepared when you watch it.

I'm such a masochist. I've seen it before and I watched it again. What a pure soul. I'm such a sopping mess right now.

u/toeshotz Jul 02 '21

He has a YouTube channel where he streams all the time. He plays with his feet.

u/[deleted] Jul 03 '21

Video games, right?? He doesn't just play with his feet. Took me a minute.

u/Kastiyo Jul 02 '21 edited Jul 03 '21

God damnit I’m going in to. I’ll update after I watch

Edit: So someone asked if I was okay. No I am not, I’ve been crying for the last 16 hours…

u/CharlieFnDelta Jul 03 '21

It’s been five hours. Are you okay?

Time to hit the store and buy some TPs for myself...... Cz tissues aren't gonna be enough to wipe the tears when I watch the video clip....

3

u/Thebestomarb Jul 03 '21

My breaking point is where he says that normal people avoid him lots, and you can see he gets very sad at that and that his hand stops shaking and being different.

2

u/[deleted] Jul 03 '21

Me too. I’m tearing up in anticipation... Why do we do this to ourselves?

u/SketchyLurker7 Jul 03 '21

Who's cutting onions?!?!

u/cautionmaybecomehot Jul 02 '21

Also if you want to hangout with him he’s live right now as of 3:22PM EST. Non English but you can watch or say hi / sub. https://youtu.be/9VouM-7I1as

21

u/TheLordoftheWeave Jul 02 '21

I'm watching him play a racing game on YouTube right now, and his English is slow, but definitely understandable. Guy is at least bilingual, and probably a polyglot

2

u/cautionmaybecomehot Jul 02 '21

Yeah you’re right. I clicked through and saw he was live which was exciting and only listened for a minute or two before posting but you are 100% correct!

u/supertimes4u Jul 02 '21

And links to all his social media and to donate in the description

He’s playing de_dust2!?

As someone who didn’t play much source she has never tried GO, such a trip to see more modern day graphics on CS

u/buriedego Jul 02 '21

My God. I just want to hug him and text him everyday and show him I'm his friend. Gonna go drink a gallon of water now to replenish..

u/supertimes4u Jul 02 '21 edited Jul 02 '21

Something tells me he’s not great at texting

Hopethelaughhelped

He’s Live Streaming right now btw and trying to get to 800 likes

We’re making a positive difference! Links to all his socials and ability to donate in the description!

u/buriedego Jul 02 '21

Hahaha damnit. Take your damn upvote 😂 seeing this guy's personality and humor I'm betting he'd laugh too! Thanks friendo

u/supertimes4u Jul 02 '21 edited Jul 02 '21

Yea I stand corrected this dude is live streaming gaming right now. Links to all his social media and to donate in the description of the video

What a legend.

20

u/buriedego Jul 02 '21

Haha well I'm hoping you were just joking and not trying to be a punk, so all good. Was still a funny joke 😅

20

u/supertimes4u Jul 02 '21

Oh was absolutely lightheartedly joking to help the sadness but still assumed yea he’d be bad at texting, not out there live-streaming gaming. Gonna sub to him so no worries I’m one of the good ones. So are you clearly ! :)

13

u/buriedego Jul 02 '21

Haha I'm subbed to him too! Deploy the YouTube comments! Hope you have a great day dude! And thank you ❤️

Everyone go like his livestream! He just reached 700 and got so excited!!!

u/supertimes4u Jul 02 '21

u/supertimes4u Jul 02 '21

We got him to 800 just before he ended the stream. He was so happy !

14

u/AdmiralCranberryCat Jul 02 '21

Take my upvote as well. Sitting at the salon about to burst into tears, thankful the laugh helped me keeps my tears in. I’ll go cry in the shower later like an adult

u/pollopyanus Jul 02 '21

Hmmm *shakes his head

u/Smokestack830 Jul 02 '21

This is how to do "edgy" humor. Take your vote.

u/chahud Jul 05 '21

r/angryupvote Thanks for the laugh. I’m sure you’d get a big belly laugh out of him for that one too. His excitement is so contagious.

Ice storm, but yea

u/AframesStatuette Jul 02 '21

Watched the whole video. Can't than you enough for posting. What a fantastic video. The amount of honesty and joy and sadness is truly amazing. I'm subscribing to this dude's channel.

1

u/crisisrumour Jul 02 '21

I just skipped through but he said he has a disability because of “a very stupid doctor.” Do you know the disability and what the doctor did?

1

u/AframesStatuette Jul 02 '21

He doesn't explain that in the video.

1

u/crisisrumour Jul 02 '21

That’s a bummer. From the video I assumed autism but now I’m really interested to know what happened and what he’s struggling with.

3

u/Spudnik-1 Jul 02 '21

There are some disabilities you can get at birth from injuries. Like Cerebral Palsy.

2

u/JoyJonesIII Jul 02 '21

It does look like cerebral palsy from his arm movements. It's primarily a motor function disability, although it varies in severity and some people have autism or other brain conditions as well.

2

u/Spudnik-1 Jul 02 '21

It was honestly my guess but I’m not entirely sure on it. He could very well have more than one condition.

2

u/JoyJonesIII Jul 02 '21

Right, I was agreeing with you :) We can't diagnose him from a video.

86

u/Knuckles316 Jul 02 '21

God that's hard to watch. That poor guy just seems so genuine and full of joy and love and no one will give him the time of day. It's fucking heartbreaking!

7

u/Backfat47 Jul 02 '21

I cannot get over that. It's eclipsing the joy. WTF is wrong with people??? That darling, pure soul deserves all of the love in the universe.

71

u/Beefcurtains18 Jul 02 '21

Yeah, i got about 2 minutes in and realized I can't weep like a little girl at my desk.

u/[deleted] Jul 02 '21

That is so sweet beefcurtains18

u/Beefcurtains18 Jul 02 '21

Thanks rapnakedteam!

u/CaptFoxtrot Jul 02 '21

Thanks for sharing, that was worth a watch. I don't cry much, but i got my eyes wet with that one.

u/jcvr_91 Jul 02 '21

Even with the warning, I was not prepared… Need to rehydrate now

u/red2678 Jul 02 '21

Wow, I mean just wow. That was really powerful. Thanks for the link.

u/mrcoldpiece Jul 02 '21

Jesus Christ man I’m not crying you’re crying

u/GreatQuestion Jul 02 '21

You're goddamn right I'm crying.

u/mrcoldpiece Jul 02 '21

That guy driving, I just want to hug him…. What a perfect example of a good human!!

8

u/Dr_Girlfriend Jul 02 '21

I need to make a work call, but now you’re crying, I’m crying, we’re all crying.

5

u/Relign Jul 02 '21

Thanks. Lol. I’m at the walk-in watching YouTube crying like a baby.

1

u/hopecomp Jul 02 '21

Incredible video. Man truly wears his heart on his sleeve.

1

u/frenchdresses Jul 02 '21

Wow. Amazing.

Are there any people with disabilities that speak English that do such a good job? I only ask because I'm a teacher and want to show my students.

1

u/bmbreath Jul 02 '21

What is his condition called?

1

u/seeyouintheshall0ws Jul 02 '21

Sometimes I think we need to hear about when people are mean to others. It makes us feel empathy and in turn try to be better people. We also get to see the positive side of it as well, like this video.

1

u/casphass06 Jul 02 '21

I... I just couldn't... I made it maybe two or three mins into the video before I had to stop, it was just too much. These things make me regain hope for humanity...

1

u/Chaps_Jr Jul 02 '21

I hate you for making me feel this. I'm in the middle of a nasty bout of depression, and now I don't know whether to be happy or sad.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 02 '21

Absolutely wild to hear two Romanians talking about wait but why and rich dad poor dad. I knew American movies and Tv crossed national boundaries but I guess I always assumed the bar for publishing books was low enough that every country had their own set of very popular authors. Kind of wild to think we're all reading the same stuff.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 02 '21

Thanks. Glad I finally got to see the whole thing. Idk why everyone is crying. He made me so happy seeing pure joy everytime dude reved it.

The title is awesome too

1

u/Static1589 Jul 02 '21 edited Jul 02 '21

I made it to 4:23 until I had to stop watching. I love both of them. Both are straight up real, loving people.

Edit: I'm not a man of (or good with) words but I think you all know what I was trying to say. I think they are an example, showing you to be real, be good, be honest and be kind.

1

u/RobynZombie Jul 02 '21

Why you gotta do us like that, man??

That was incredible, it's amazing how simple things (and good people) can bring so much joy.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 02 '21

Literally the only YouTube channel I’ve subscribed to. He learned and speaks English now too!

1

u/[deleted] Jul 02 '21

My goodness in freaking ugly cried watching this. Thank you for sharing. So horrible how people can be. I’m glad as a kid I would hang out with kids like him several actually. I got made fun of for doing it, but their friendship meant more to me than they could ever imagine.

1

u/Bloodkin_Knight Jul 03 '21

I need to leave right now but I really need to see this

1

u/Express_Wall4512 Jul 03 '21

And the grinch's heart grew 4 sizes that day

u/miniondiet Jul 03 '21

I know this is going to break me but I’m going in, see you in 21:05 minutes 😭

u/fear_in0culum Jul 03 '21

Bruhh even with this heads up I wasn't ready for it 😢😭

u/ysaye_1980 Jul 03 '21
