I think you should never give up no matter how hard it is, Arthur's doctors said he wouldn't be able to walk but he kept training and training and he started to walk and run.

This video is so inspiring and motivational in so many different ways. One it shows that just because you have a disability does not mean you cannot do something others can't. Two it shows that if you believe in yourself and believe you can do something, miracles can happen. Three if others tell you you cannot do something or you'll fail at what you want to do, do your best and prove those who underestimated you wrong. I love how Arthur proved those who didn't believe in him wrong and even proved doctors wrong who told him he would never be able to walk again for 15 years. That shows me that everything is possible even if you think it isn't.

Arthur is amazing. He never gave up even after people refused to help him, and doctors told him he would never be able to walk. Arthur met a formal wrestler that would help him. He worked out for 10 months and lost 140 pounds! Best of all he learned to walk and to even run! Arthur truly is amazing. Mr. Meyer, I can see why this is your favorite.

I really liked this video because it was very special and very motivational. This video shows me that even if you think you can't do something, doesn't mean you to never stop. The doctors told Arthur that he won't be able to walk normally without assistant. Then, someone named Diamond Dallas Page chose to have a caring heart and offered some help. The guy was from WWE wrestler. Arthur did a lot of yoga. He fell many times, but got back up again. After a while he started to lose weight and he thought that he should start believing in himself. He lost 100 pounds in 6 months and 140 pounds in 10 month. Then I also realized that the doctors were wrong about Arthur. He got up and started walking at first, but after he ran quickly. The shirt on the sign of the two hands together is the symbol that ddp uses. After watching this video, I realized the theme: Never give up in any hard or difficult situation. I really want to recommend this video to a friend because this video is very sad and a good video to teach others to never give up. I hope for the future 5th graders to watch this video and learn from their mistakes.

This video is so inspirational! This is also my favorite video because it shows anybody can do anything. It is inspirational because nobody else believed in Arthur than himself, and one other person. He kept trying and like it said, he fell, but he got back up. If i was in his position I may not have kept trying and i may have given up like most people, but it was awesome that he didnt. I was so happy at the end when it showed him running and walking even when every doctor he went to told him he would never walk again.

I think this video is inspirational because Arthur was told many times that he was never going to be able to walk again. he knew he was going to be able to walk again he just didn't know how. he started to work out. he kept his mind to it and after some years he was finally able to walk again. and then he started to run. this is inspirational because he put his mind to it and he never gave up.

This man did what no one thought possible. He was not able to walk without his cane because he hurt his back and knees and no one had hope. Except him. The reason why he was able to do this was because believed in himself. This showed me that if you believe in yourself everything is possible and nothing is impossible.

This video helps others because this guy had issues and he could not even move. This guy kept trying even if he fell down. I really like this video because he could not move without his cane, but then later on, he started running and he could stand upside-down and walk without the cane. This video tells us to never give up even when you fall. If you fall get right back up and always keep trying.

He is amazing. When he couldn't walk, he thought his life was over. If I were him, I would think that too. But what I wouldn't do is go out and exercise everyday for like 24 hours. You know who would do that? Yup, it's Arthur. I think this video is motivational to others because he learns to never give up.

This was the most inspirational video that I have ever watched in my whole life. It says in the start that he would never be able to walk unassisted and that part was really sad. At first he just accepted that he would have to suffer walking with canes for the rest of his life and his face looked really sad because it looks like his life went super downhill at that point. He was only disabled because he was a veteran and he thought he couldn’t do anything about it. It was sad when he explained how it happened because he was serving for many people and he had to walk in canes because he put himself in the front of the pit of fire if only one person had to jump in. He also gained weight because it’s really hard to exercise if you have be getting hurt while. He couldn’t even walk or run anymore because of how bad it was. It was really sad that none of the yoga instructors wanted to help him even though he was the one who was helping people because he’s a veteran. Well know one was helping him until diamond dallace page wanted to help. He said that he was really out of shape when he first saw him. He was the only person that believed in Arthur. Even if Arthur fell he would get up every single time and try again no matter how much pain he was in he still got up. In the middle it show that he lost a lot of weight because his pants couldn’t even fit him anymore because they only fit him when he was bigger and now he out grew them he had to hold them up just so it wouldn’t fall. When that happened he finally believed that he could be himself again because he was actually starting to lose weight. Even though he failed a lot he still believed in the possible. He could almost even do a mini hand stand because he was training so much but even though he failed when he did it he got back up. After that he did a slow push up and those are even hard for me. Also he could walk after the push up part. He could even walk without the cane but he had to balance a bit. It showed his transitions and he started to actually get skinny and he was smiling because he did the thing he thought was impossible. He lost 100 pounds in only 6 months. When he started to run that was a wow moment I was even smiling myself because it was such an inspirational part of the video. He even proved the doctors wrong they said he could never walk again and he was literally running. He said that you should never underestimate yourself and now he was saying never give up he changed a lot because I’m the start he gave up completely. At the end he looked skinny and that was really surprising because of how out of shape he was in the start. He lost 140 pounds in a month because someone believed in him.

This man saw that nobody can take him down because in the beginning he could not walk, but then he tried to do everything he could to get rid of that. This man first lost some weight as you can see from the thumbnail. Then he kept falling down after trying to walk a bit, but that never took him down. Instead he continued his journey and actually started running himself. The theme for this video is to Never quit even if you think you think that nothing is possible. Instead we should just be us and think about us and think if we could surprise the world.

This goes to show whether you have severe problems like Arthur, or small problems, everyone has some sort of obstacle they need to overcome. At first, he was just starting to accept his fate, that he would never walk properly again and that he could never be able to walk without a cane. He thought the good parts of his life would be over, and that the rest of his life would be miserable. He was disabled because he was a helpful veteran and wars and couldn't walk because of fatal injuries. When you cannot walk however, you most likely won't be able to exercise, or not much anyway. If you aren't getting up and moving, and working out, but you are still eating, which probably results in over eating because you have nothing else to do, which sadly will end up with you gaining weight, which is what happened to Arthur. He couldn't do anything, and no one wanted to help him because of how severe his case was. But then came a instructor that unveiled Arthurs true abilities, and helped him realizing that giving up is stupid because it is never, ever the end. Diamond Dallas Page said that Arthur was a bit obese when first seen by him. But shown by this video, he kept going, because he wanted to make a difference in Arthur's life. He pushed Arthur to the limits he never knew he could go to. Arthur started exercising, working hard. He fell. He felt like it was impossible. But every time, he got up, because he knew he had a chance to be better again. That mindset will get you where ever you want to be in life because you can do anything you want to do if you set your mind to it, just like Arthur did. You'd think Arthur was in pain, and he definitely was, but that mindset is what kept him going. He hung on to that dream. That's what pulled him up when he was down. That hope, that he could do it, that feeling that he would make it. He tried hard. He did things that some fully healthy people still can't do today. He lost so much weight that he could barely fit in his old pair of pants. He worked hard, and he achieved his goal. Arthur is still working hard today to keep his goal straight. Arthur lost 100 pounds in 6 months, by working hard, and getting up. He said that you should never under estimate yourself, and that is true because you never know your limits. At the start, no one believed in him, not even himself, and he could barely get up. At the end, from endless work and practice he got up, after falling millions of times, he did things that many people don't today, he never gave up. That is the message, never give up, because you never know what you can push yourself too, and you never know your limits. That is why Arthur's story is so inspiring, because he worked harder then many could ever.
