- A very special thank you to the entire APS ARMY. And to everyone who contributed to the GoFundMe Campaign for Danny. I hope we made you proud. And also a very special shout out to DANNY. Who gave himself a chance out here and for all the hard work he's been putting in himself. He really has a chance to succeed out here in the free world now. When just a month ago, he didn't think he had any sort of chance at all. Hope you enjoy this video.

This is the final episode of the Danny GoFundMe series. And I want to thank EVERYONE who supported this series. I hope this final video makes you happy. I hope it makes you humbled as it has me. And I hope it opens peoples eyes to what people can do together as a team when they offer someone hope and encouragement who would otherwise be without it. This world has a lot of negative shit in it and so much can hinder a person or hold them back NO MATTER WHAT THEY FACE OR HAVE BEEN THROUGH. But humanity is not lost. And this series proves that in so many ways. And no matter what you face. Or what is stacked up against you. So long as you GIVE YOURSELF A CHANCE FIRST, so long as you BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND TELL YOURSELF YOU CAN MAKE A BETTER LIFE FOR YOURSELF... Others will begin to believe in you as Dave, Cody, THE ENTIRE APS ARMY, and I believe in Danny. I hope this series makes you proud. I'm pretty sure the ending will.

The hat is dope!!! You got them fo sale ?! Yo Joe let me get one dem hats
Danny story and what u guys have done for him is amazing 😉
Congratulations everyone at APS, this was an awesome effort 😊 (saw my name too!)
Make this one of your super succes stories Joe, and you have prove to rub it in the failed systems face !
As long as the current "system" is concerned, he would have been locked up months ago.
Ex-cons are humans too.
Ure doing good work son. Keep it up, and real !
Right on Joe your program is very positive for the community keep it up bro.
Did anyone else also notice how much Danny changed from his first video? He looks so much more human now. He smiles all the time and doesn't have this hardened "Imma kill you look," it is almost making me tear up.
Abuyin ibn Djadir i was just thinking about that myself.
He looks alot happier now that he knows he's on the straight & narrow
Yes he went from saying he hasn’t smiled in years to grinning from ear to ear
Definitely a massive change
He looks taller, like he's standing up straight and proud now.
naaaaaaaaah still short af lol
Keep in touch with Danny. Hang out with him keep him motivated
Yo!. Can we just appreciate the fact Danny is 59 an buff as hell lifting that stuff like it ain't nothin!
Shaquille Nuku he did them prison pull ups
143vby hell yeah he did bro, that man is preserved as hell!
Fantastic! Well done Joe...you've literally changed that mans life. I'm certain Danny's prison days are well and truly behind him. He now has a great foundation to build himself a life. Respect. :)
He helped him out alot, but he has been locked up for 40 years.. for better or worse,someone is gonna rush up on Danny after they recognize him..even just to say hi
@@PaulybiGGballZ0820 Danny's certainly not one to go out looking for trouble but he will stand his ground and defend himself if necessary.
God bless you Danny boricua from Connecticut living in Central Virginia just saw your video awesome thank God for this good folks 🙏
Amen to that 🙏
My father died recently and my mom two years ago. I haven't had much to smile about lately, but watching Danny's journey on this channel has really warmed my heart and given me something to feel good about. Thanks Joe and APS. You guys are angels on earth.
Melke Oliveah god bless you ! Don’t give up stay strong
Sending you a big hug. Things will get better.
keep your head up stay strong ... if you need someone to talk to dm me on Instagram - opinionizzle and im here you ... or message me on here
thanks for your kindness!
thanks for your kind message!
I was fortunate to meet Danny today. He was at the grocerie store. Shopping for a little bit of items. And we had a little down to earth conversation in the parking lot of the store. I wish i had more time to talk with him a little longer. However, he had to go in help somebody. I can respect that. I see he trying give back. Due is very down to earth with intelligence. We talk about after prison show how he was grateful to meet the caring guys of the show. We talked about being ex-cons doing right things to make it in Society. Pretty much, we talked about turning negatives into positives. Also, he grateful for the people that helped him on go fund me too. We talked about that too. And best part about having the conversation with him. He was smiling like a adorable new born baby. He is happy and grateful now. That he has supporters on his side that care about him like us. He's a decent guy in my eyes. I hope he stay safe, continue working hard at his new job, and stay free. I want to see more prosperity in his life.
I bet that happened
@@bibinetanyahu8818 it was pretty interesting meeting him. We stay in the same state and city. I don't normally walk up to people. But, he inspire me to keep working hard in life. And to stay out of the system. I didn't have anything to offer him for help. He even ask me, if i needed anything. That shows that his heart still work. He a decent guy in my eyes. He going talk about are encounter if he doesn't forget. We had good vibes. If, you see him don't be afraid he's a friendly guy.
Amen to that
I’m in Williamsburg and have some stuff if y’all just WANT it... I have a coffee table, a super fancy toaster oven some kitchen items.. I have a storage unit full of extra stuff that I was just going to donate
Amanda Parrish why don't you send Joe an email? Hes more likely to see that I would think... Bless you for being so generous x
Lol I live like 5 min from Bush Gardens in Williamsburg too off of 60
I'm sure you could tag Joe in a tweet and snap a pic of what you have and he'd tell you how you could help :)
I don’t tweet the tweets :-p but I’ll email him!
Email joe or dm him on twitter.
So touching to see how ‘the beast’ changed from the start til the end - from the start Danny had his head down, no sparkle in the eyes, no real smile, and he didn’t believe in a future for himself - to have his head high, his eyes is shining with a hugh smile on his face and with an amazing self-confidence in the end. I shed some tears in the end of this video because of what you, Joe and the others in APS are doing for lost souls like Danny was. I can’t imagen how bad life must have been for Danny to seriously be thinking about going back to prison - and all that shit he described from those 40 years... He was ready to change his life and needed someone to believe in him and give him a new chance in life - that’s the bottom line. It really made it very clear when you got that big Dave-case as a contrast in this video👍🏻 And you guys shows up and with the greatest dignity and humble ways helps Danny to pick up his soul and start all over in this life👏🏼
You really picked up a lost soul and made him blossom and thrive into the man he is now. That’s just the biggest gift you can give another human! RESPECT🙏🏼🤗
Agreed
Well said👍🏻
Get this man his own channel and teach him how to use it. He would have a huge following and I believe the money that came with his channel would only upgrade and evolve this mans life. So proud of you my dude.
Yes please show him something new..he has a humble heart
APS is kicking ass. Y'all keep doing what your doing. I can tell a big difference in Danny sence this started you can see it in his face.
I totally agree.
Mike Johnson yeah that's what I was saying yesterday lol, from his first video where he didn't smile at all and now this one where he's always laughing and smiling now.
I love how Danny went from not smiling or half smiling, to a total grin, and just a glow of pure happiness because of what people did for him, makes me proud to rock with APS, especially given our man went from nothing, to a job, a house, transport, all because he wanted it, puts a smile on my face
JohnnyUnfiltered You are so right, that man has a light behind his eyes that wasn't there 3-4wks ago.
Exactly good to see him smile
APS is day real Deal
@@charlesbukowski8026 h
I never comment; however, this is the best thing I have seen on CZcams in a long time. It’s inspiring, humbling, and outright heartwarming. When comparing Danny in the “first day” clips vs the clips of Danny moving in... the smile and the hope in his eyes is clearly apparent now. He has hope. He has drive. He has determination. The system tore his chances down and APS built them back up. God Bless all of you, and everyone reading this who supports this channel. 🙏.
Carla Calderon
The system tore his chances down??
Ok calm down. The mans been involved in crime since he was 18.
I'm happy that he's doing good now but don't victimize lifetime criminals.
Ditto, girl 💕
Pat L life criminal??? He’s been inside since he was 18, not on the streets doing crimes. How is that a life criminal? 40 years in prison, did you miss that bit? He went into jail as a teenager, he spent his life locked up... that’s not a life criminal that’s a lifer in prison, he’s not been out to do any crimes or continue his life or just grow up and see what kinda person he might’ve become. It’s nice he finally has that chance, he’s done more than his time for his crimes, stop dissing him now he’s out and trying...
Summers Summers
You idiot.
You clearly didn't watch the entire series with him. The first time he served around 24 something years for murder. Then he got out, committed more crimes and went back in for more time. Then he recently got back out again a few years ago and went back in to serve a few more years.
Get your facts right dumbass.
Pat L Well you’ve just proved what kinda person you are by your reply. I was obviously right in my assumptions. By the way reverting to insults is a sign of lack of intelligence. Another assumption you proved me right in. Maybe you need some help from the community yourself, you appear to be struggling a bit generally. It’s ok, there’s no shame in it, look How well Danny is doing :) I hope you get all the help you need, Pat. I understand and don’t take it personally. Good luck with things
Compassion is a virtue that is rare to see nowadays...God bless you guys for helping those who are rejected by society.
This makes me cry so bad how the system does these people , 40 years , he’s been in prison since the 70s , he’s lost ! No help no nothing , it would make you want to just give up on life or take your life or commit a crime just to go back to prison! Danny you’re a great man , I’m glad you’ve changed ❤️ it hurts man every interview made me cry . I swear i never cried so much . I’m so happy you people helped Danny .. whatever you had to do to survive prison it’s okay you made it ! The system was made to fail this man ! He was trying he wanted to be better and he was .. i really wish i could meet Danny ❤️ all love from me !
Jus remember . He still committed murder .
NOT in self defense..
@@kingyeayea397 - and, Whats your point? God has a plan for Danny. Jesus didn't come to save the righteous like you, he came to save the sinners.
I'm just now watching this and I'm a man but even man cry I love the story
The story of danny made me change the way i value my life and freedom :) happy for you danny :)
Chaewha you’re super hot
Let me take you on a Picnic and make you a sandwich 😧
@@jnscrews thats not her fucking dumbass
@@laresident7692 you to your a fucking dumbass
spicy spyxxx you’re* ...had to point out the irony of you calling someone a dumbass.
Danny is deserving of every bit of this. He served his time and deserves the chance to start over. Joe you’re an amazingly person so glad aps could make a difference in Danny’s life!!!!!
Jack The Ripper "The PSR listed approximately 30 prior convictions, many for violent offenses. It highlighted a few of these convictions in making its ACCA recommendation, including multiple Massachusetts convictions for Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon and one Massachusetts conviction for Armed Assault with Intent to Murder." You all are protecting a potentially a murderer and a wife beater. Why help this dude? Why not help the woman he beat on countless occasions, why not help his daughter that's more than likely traumatized?
David Alexandrovitch because everyone deserves a second chance. He served his time now is his chance to better himself after 40 years
Danny smiles a lot now, thats so good to se him light up and again be a part of the free world, and life :)
Right
Not super important, but would be great if he can get his teeth fixed sometime down the road. Just a goal, not a necessity.
I want to see more of Danny guys. For real this guy has charisma. Bring Danny back.
He's not coming back!!
Watch the other videos bro. This guy is a pos.
just so you know,am watching this all the way in jamaica...well done joe.my respects to you danny..gonna miss this series
Ow u mean!
Straight
Hello am here from jamaica too I love what these guys are doing
This BETTER NOT be the last time we see Danny. Better see him a lot more often still!
I want to see Danny more!
The passenger doing all the talking should stop talking and just concentrate on the task at hand. The driver seems nice and humble. The passenger just needs to shut up. He ruins the show. Be quiet dude and your speech sucks. You complain way to much for someone who supposedly cares and wants to help. Just shut up.
Ikr!!!
I have to say honestly before finding this channel I had a whole different way of thinking when it came to people who've been locked up in jail or prison. now my p.o.v. has changed and I believe it has changed for the better. everyone deserves a chance to better themselves no matter where they are at in life,and we all need someone to lean on to get thru the darkest of times. I hope to see this channel take off and really hit main stream.
Venessa Robinson that’s right, after all we don’t know what circumstances took them down that road in the first place. Also, ppl can be sorry for mistakes and want to change and make amends, can’t they? It’s so much better for society that we do help ppl who need and want to be helped to help themselves x
Venessa Robinson changed how i view ppl who hv been in prison/jail too.
@Marcel DeSouza you're right,the American prison system is decades behind in a lot of aspects.
Marcel DeSouza yup, just like the US health care system
Well said I am a new APS ARMY family member too
6 dislikes??? Probably Big Dave and the panhandlers using Walmart WiFi.
I hollered.
Lol I was thinking the same thing
Ya how can anyone in their right mind dislike people helping another person smh
Lmao hold this W
lmfao so good
I just binge watched Dannys story. The transformation on his face was just unbelievable. He went from a guy who barely smiled, to a guy who couldn't stop beaming from ear to ear. Great job guys, all of you. All the best to you Danny!
I grew up in Sunset Park in the 80's. Puerto Rican gangs everywhere. Guys like this were plentiful. Do the wrong thing and you get a bat to the head, a knife, or a bullet. I almost went down this same path, there I was with my knife in my hand and the other guy's arms were tangled in his jacket which he was trying to take off. The muscles in my arm tensed and so did my grip on the handle of the knife as I prepared to take the opportunity and thrust it into his heart. Time slowed down, seconds seemed to take forever and I had the clarity to understand that I would not get away with killing him. People would know who I was and I would be caught and life as I knew it would be over. So I turned around and ran as fast as I could. Yes, I could have put the knife away and fought but I was outnumbered 2 to 1 and I had already learned that there is no honor on the street. They would have killed me. Best decision I ever made.
To Danny: I am so glad U R out of prison after serving 40 years. I cant believe this system did this U. The time U were given is a cruel and abusive sentence. There is no Godly reason to subject another human being to be treated like U were. Danny, I am so grateful that U survived, and was able to see your son, his children, and all of your sister and brothers. I cried my eyes out when U were re-united with your family for Christmas! Danny, I am so happy to see that big beautiful smile you have now. Also, Danny your laugh is just sexy, as well as being uplifting for the soul. Danny, I want U to know U R a awesome beautiful man with a beautiful heart, and I wish you all the success this world can bring to U now that you are home. I also, thanked God that he protected you while you were inside. I am truly grateful that you survived and was not killed in prison. I am also very thrilled that I saw your story on U-Tube. This story opened my eyes to what an ugly system we run in the United States. Why would U put a young teenage man in jail for that long, and basically throw away the key. Danny, I am personally apologizing for the injustice that was done to you. I am truly ashamed of the United States of America. I hope and pray that this never happens to another human being. Danny, I am so proud that you have regained your dignity and respect. Danny, in my book you are one of the greatest men in this whole wide world. I wish you peace and happiness the rest of your life. I wish I could meet you one day before I leave this earth. I am 74 years old. I will be 75 on May 26, 2020, and I trust you with my life. I will close for now. I will always be praying for your well being. Also, I want to thank the crew that got Danny started on his road to recovery and victory. Always, remember Danny never look back! I will always love you. Anita R Carter
Im kinda sad Danny’s series is done it’s like I can keep watching him and his story forever I don’t get enough it. Please keep danny in videos I don’t wanna see him gone. It really amazes me that someone that’s been out for just 7 months and was starting to lose hope and faith finds aps and finds joe , and Cody , and Dave . And they completely change Danny’s life away I can’t imagine how danny feels he has a place of his own now he has a ride, somewhere to sleep. He’s so humble and such a great man he deserves every bit of it. You joe are a angel in disguise you have been the best eye opener to me from all this, you have showed me as well that people need to start caring for other people and give these guys out in the free world one chance, thank you joe and aps for being such wonderful angels and dios bendiga to danny ♥️♥️♥️💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
I feel like Danny is a part of APS now. I think we may see more of him and I am okay with that. It helps him because APS and the APS army are always there for him.
Me! I have the same feelings!!
It's would be a cool if he started his own channel, just showing his day to day life after 40 years in prison. It would be interesting seeing him discover new things he has never seen before.. things the rest of us don't think twice about.. we all take so much for granted and seeing someone actually appreciate some of life's simple things might be a nice eye opener.
Well said Xo Ann! Kudos to the guys for helping Danny start his life over! Can't imagine what he must be feeling being free after 40 years. Amazing. You guys are doing a wonderful thing here for these guys being released. Keep up the amazing work, and God bless you all.
I couldn't have said it better!!
*I wish positivity was as contagious as negativity!* That's why I love this channel, y'all work so hard to do good for everyone. I'm so glad everything is falling into place for you.
I find that if you immerse a person in a positive situation, it tends to make them more positive. Sometimes you also have to figure out what the internal issue is that makes someone negative, to help turn them around.
@@sbrazenor2 somewhat, depends on multiple things.
What a story.You guys, including Danny are such an inspiration. Just wow. Wish him all the best. I know he will succeed. Thank you for being who you were meant to be guys.
If only positivity was contagious. The world would be a much better place
It is. It's just more people are negative because of the structure of society
Drop a like if you would love to see more of Danny in the future over here APS! :) I know I would LOVE to!
I think Danny will probably be part of helping the next person and be part of the Army for life. He looks like a solid guy and will want to keep helping pass all that good karma on.
Danny seems to give me strength. I have been free for more than 14 years and I still read and struggle with work so now I do not feel alone. At the moment, I get paid for taking care of my mother but it isn't much. I did have a job gig where I made almost an extra Grand a month. Although, ever since my mom had congestive heart failure bread has been tight. However, after hearing your story I am free, I eat good food, I can play golf for two hours at a time. Life is good as long as your free. I live in California where they have the three strikes law so I know that if I do anything stupid my time doubles and the DA may decide to strike me out because I have a strike already. Now I am a big believer in God who allows me to live one day at a time. Good luck to you and me as well, Marty
Joe, Dave....man, this bit at the end, the recap, has me all watery-eyed. For real. Just seeing how closed off Danny's demeanor was upon the first meeting, to him speaking about not having any one or any connections to help him get a start out here, to him practically being dragged in the old prison video from '92....then BOOM! Him coming down the street on the moped with a big ol' ear to ear grin...man, that's just great. Really great. Danny got mixed up with the wrong people and did some bad stuff, no doubt, but I believe he paid his debt to society and after all that's gone down, you can tell just how humble he's become and that he's gonna be a continued success story.
This is why APS is so important and why it's one of the best original CZcams shows. Great work, Joe and crew.
Danny is a diamond in the rough. God bless you Joe
I second that
Ok, now you gotta have "Cooking With Danny"
Yes very much needed series
Yea I agree cooking with Danny would be a big hit
No Danny need to start his own “Cooking With Danny” and utilize the opportunity APS has given him .
I hope dannie still comes on camera from time to time
I'd love to see some Danny prison stories, myself. Maybe something funny.
Damn imagine where Danny would have been if he didn't have u guys. Still homeless dead or back in prison. Y'all r a true blessing I love the ending btw
Danny is an inspiration to my brothers and I. Growing up on a reservation, not much but hate and crime, and after watching Danny's story, and realizing there are good people out there, my brothers and I have made a promise to each other, to help each other, and support each other, just like you BROTHERS ✊ are doing for your brother danny. Doing time is hard, my older brothers are felons and I was on my way too, but this channel really gave me another outlook on life and I've come to realize that, there are angels out there in this world ! Thank you Joe, Kody, Dave & Thank you danny, for the motivation to do better ! God bless you and may your road be straight and narrow ! You deserve the best danny..
Joe don't know if u saw the comment in my last video but, If u make a Amazon wish list for danny so we can send stuff he needs
that would be great and we would love to. Like for Joe can see !!
That's brilliant!
Awesome idea!
great idea kris
Good idea...
Amen great idea...I'm in.
Such a change in Danny. He looks so damn happy. This series has been amazing.
The way Danny changed from having no hope in his eyes and no smile to being full of joy its truly amazing
What you guys doing is very Good I cant even find the right words I was locked up for 4 years in jail cant even imagine doing 40 years After 4 years comin home it was difficult I take my hat of ! God bless you
Joe, I see the sacrifice and hard work you, Dave, Corby and others put into helping Danny out. I hope and pray that Danny remembers that during his low days.
This is one of the best things ive watched on the internet. Period. Joe man. You did it . Dave you did it. Cody you did it. DANNY! you did it! Keep it up. Oppertunities like this are once in a lifetime . I cant wait to see the update months down the road. Congrats . Amazing job
Hopefully this is not the end of the Danny videos.
YES! Joe Please more Danny videos in the future, I know the man is trying to work and doesn't have time, but keep us updated, I am so intrigued on this mans come back and what you guys have done for him, Joe you are awesome!
He already said Danny has some really good cooking concepts so them cooking videos with Danny will be coming homie.
StockBrokerton420 ooooh Puerto Rican food on APS!!
Who's cutting onions? Once again you all are a huge blessing to Danny and thank you for everything you all have done.
@@213davidbennett is that you big Dave you ungrateful bastard they help you out and you shit on them..
Yessss!!!! A success!! I knew Danny was the 1!! Look at the difference in his eyes from the 1st video to the most recent video, you can see his actual soul healing!! Cant even describe how happy I am for this guy, theres no way to even fathom the pain he has endured....#APSallDay
This is an amazing comment and you said exactly what I was thinking.
@@blehbleh222 Agree :-) Beautiful comment :)
Most beautiful thing
You can tell Danny's spirits have been lifted big time!! Great job in helping this man you guys!
Man, if y'all stayed in the Dallas area of Texas I could've found this dude a nice running car for around $500 cash. I just found my 20 year old little sister a 98 Honda Accord with clear title, a/c, and even has an alarm with remote start and all for $500 cash. Car runs great and all we had to do is change the oil. I could help you guys alot if y'all lived around here.
Danny you didn't just make a army of friends you made a new family..THE APS FAMILY. WELCOME HOME BROTHER.
💗
Do story/cooking videos with danny. It would be cool to know what danny learned in prison
Holy shit so many likes
Good idea
Deep Fried Chicken how to use Ramen noodles 100 different ways. 😂
How about Danny cooking real good. Those soles get boring to me.
Yes I would love to here some stories from Danny
Joe you gotta do it, what a brilliant idea
Dude Danny is cool as hell this can't be the last of Danny.
U serisouley need to open a shelter for people who come out of prison and have no fam or no where to go and get them on there feet like u do this is so awsome of u to do what u have done its alot i have a cuzin i help who homeless and drug addicted i do alot for her and its draining on my daily life im glad these people apperciate u
It warms my heart seeing Danny's beautiful smile and his happy face 😊💋
I'm SO PROUD of you Joe!!! The coolest guy on CZcams!!
I have one thing to say on this matter. Not all Angels have wings. God Bless You Joe! You have done more for Danny than the entire US Government has. Let there be a beautiful place in Heaven for you, beautiful Joe. Amen.
Can’t wait to hear about Danny’s girlfriend situation!!! Get it Danny!!!
Me too!!!!
Never stop smiling danny we love you man stay strong. You have love coming from far up north in canada. Stay blessed and humble.
Oh my....Danny's first video popped up this morning on my phone and I've been bingeing on his life ever since. I want him to be happy with all my heart. His story makes you rethink life in general and life in this country. So much of the system sets people up to fail. Blessings and hugs to this man!
I couldn't stop smiling throughout the whole video
Nathan Hearld I swear and usually I never smile
Me too
I don't know what to say. This is the best example of humanity Ive seen. What happens when you just give someone who truly wants a chance, a real chance... If only society in general could work like this.
Dang, he almost looks like a different person now! This makes me so happy.
"This man, he's a survivor, he's strong."
This series quite honestly has been the best thing I have watched on CZcams! Please keep us all posted on Danny!
I love it when Joe just switches to the prison way of talking. It's so funny
Would be cool once Danny is all settled in and everything took care of bring Danny on to tell some prison stories. He has to have some good stuff.
Mike Johnson as much as many like this idea, I think for Danny, it's better not to do that. He needs to keep moving forward, and not remember the past.
You cant forget where you came from or what you been through. Hes the way he is because of that, im sure he would let us in on more stories in the future. Now that he knows he can make it out here, bringing up the past wont stop this man :D
@@secko3975 what I was thinking. It's been 7 years since I been and it don't bother me at all to talk about it. I didn't do no where near 40 years but. Help him remember how far he has come and where he don't want to go back to if he keeps it in his mind
i never comment but i have to say ! in the words of danny “beautiful”!!!
I just want to say that I proud to see brother's helping one another convicts doing for one another I see myself alot in Danny I to gave half my life to the system replace design for the strong to survive in the week we have seen with are eyes what happens if you don't stand as a man but that's not what I'm trying to really talk about I remember being in his shoes when I went in pagers cassettes VCRs were just in when I got out it was blue ray CD and cell phones after about 3 weeks being out haveing to go to drug classes part of my parole I remember not knocking anybody but telling myself man even the Heights have phones watching movies whatever the hell is Facebook I remember going to buy my first phone the lady asked me what was my email or Gmail account and I could remember standing there feeling so out of place not knowing what she was asking me now people may think this is funny but all the convictional that everything runs off of number like Social Security I thought she was asking me for my institutional number anyways after a convict being there helping me out understanding explaining to me and making an account on the spot as well as one or two people getting good laughing I could imagine Danny going in when it was 8 tracks anyways it's a good thing what you brother's did and are doing keep up the good work and I'll be subscribed as I've been and just the word for all of those who think that just because some of us been to prison we are scum less than cuz we're not we are Sons some of us fathers Brothers uncles sometimes we're dealt a bad hand or the times we do it to ourselves what I'm trying to say I guess some of us deserve a second chance I couldn't say we all deserve a second chance cuz I don't believe that when it comes to them pedophiles rapist anyways don't let no one stop you brother keep up the good work
This series is hands down one of the best things I've ever watched in over a decade of surfing CZcams. Props to these gentlemen for putting the work in to assist a brother. I'm not one to preach, or even necessarily believe in a higher power, but if there has ever been a perfect example of "Doing God's Work," this is it.
My name is alan, i am 15, and i like this channel very much, they way you guys went out of your way to help danny get his life together is amazing, my dad had 9 prison numbers and many many times in the county, and if he would have something like aps he would still be here today, he is kinda like danny he didnt have anything and he couldn't get like on track and thats the reason he kept going back, unfortunately my dad has passed away easter of 2016 and its sad because my dad wanted help with the drug problems, in fact he hand an appointment the following tuesday to start and try and get help, anyways aps is a great channel and what you do for the people that want the help like danny is amazing, and i hope to be a part of the next thing to take place, and i would possibly like to meet the aps someday aswell as danny, I hope this isnt the last we will be seeing danny and i wish all the best for him and may he keep on the right track, witch i believe he will. Hope to possibly get a shout out in a video and get a a reply, please and thank you
Amanda Nester I'm so very sorry about what happened to your dad, Alan. My heart goes out to you. & I hate that he didn't have that support/resources to get back on track. Glad to see you here.
lol wat? He overdosed
Sorry to hear that Alan, drugs suck bad man I know first hand. I wish I was as young as you to have made the choice to stay in school and not hang around the cool kids in my school at the time. I didn't have a dad when I grew up until I was 24. I'm 100% positive you'll make the correct decisions in life and stay with your education. And maybe someday YOU'LL BE THAT PERSON THAT HELPS THE PEOPLE THAT NEED IT with drugs or alcohol. Avenge your dad's passing with helping others like him. Of I'm wrong I apologize. Keep your head held high
stay strong and make your dad proud
So sorry you lost your dad 😢❤! I can't imagine how hard it have to be trying to make a life outside after doing time.
You have experienced hard situations. Your dad looks down on you, proud of your good heart and how you care for others in similar situations. Most important thing a parent wish for, is a child with a heart and understanding. ( At least that's how I feel)
Make the best out of your life, so you can be happy. That will make your dad happy too!
I was a junkie, and I never stopped caring about my loved ones. They were on my mind always. I was just so lost and didn't know how to make my body and psycke work clean..
I got methadone and help and finally got a life at 29 when I became a mom. I was lucky because I got help and support and before that I tried for years, but gave up until I was the only one to be there for my baby and got methadone. Sadly my brother didn't make it. He died in February. He foght so hard and wanted so much to get clean, but as tough and strong he was, it was dissapointments after dissapointments , health problems, engziety, lonlynes amongst straight people, financially tough and he struggled to much. His heart... He was proud, but broken in spirit. He hustled, but was a good person.
Hope you have good people around you! Probably you have seen the pain drugs leads to and won't go down that road... But just in case, I have to warn you, to please stay far away from it.. Everyone thinks they are strong enough and have the will power to stop... I did too, so did my brother and I guess all my dead friends...
The changes in your brain and body... No one thinks of before..
Anyways, take care! 💕
What an awesome story! Keep it up Joe! APS Army could turn from a show to a movement!
I think it was just as hard for Danny to take a chance on you guys as it might have been for you to take a chance on him.
lulu nordahl for real
Dude Danny was so sad and depressed and worn down looking when u started talking to him. Now heis smile can light up the room. He is smiling and he even sounds more positive. Congrats Danny. Way to go Army. Joe, Dave, & Cody WOW!!!
KEEP IT UP. Danny dont take nothin for granted.....Make the most of everyday and ENJOY LIFE & THE FREE WORLD.....PEACE!
I've honestly NEVER been prouder to be a small part of APS as I am now. Well done Joe, Dave, Cody, and Danny. Great job to all u guys.
Damn now Danny out there doing better than me, still happy for him tho
Maybe I should try killing my wife and daughter and get locked up for awhile and get a free hand out.
At 42:12 with that music and Danny cheesing on his moped made me cry with tears of joy!! Thank u APS for creating the best documentary ever! Keep the Danny series going!! Luv ya Danny :)
Danielle Carr I'm crying too!
Lucinda Radford aww!! Glad I'm not the only one haha
Such a major difference in happiness from the first time you see him to him moving in! Hopefully we get to see more of Danny! Hope he has a nice sleep on that memory foam!
BEST CZcams SERIES EVER!!! Just brilliant. Please do more follow ups with Danny. Mad respect from the South Pacific xo
Jenna Ma'anaima I could definitely feel you! Very rare to find this type of content. Sending my blessings from me to all..
Joe I left the channel for a while then I came back yesterday. I'm proud that you have grown into a big Channel.YOUR the best for helping people in our situation. I'm proud of you I'm so proud of you for doing this for Danny much respect for Massachusetts. The world needs more people like you.
Joe, Dude, NEVER put your feet down on a moving motorcycle unless coming to a stop. Danny was actually doing VERY well on the lil turn. lol
On sport or naked bikes where you lean harshly into the turn that's true but cruisers, mopeds, or dirtbikes that keep you upright you should put your feet down on tight turns for balance and to move your center mass inward
Watching Danny in the moped was nerve wracking. Be safe Danny!!!!
I was always taught not to put my feet down, and when I took my test you would get pointed if you put your feet down.
when you break a toe you'll change your mind. flat track races are the only guys that throw a foot during a turn. not hating just throwing the correct info out there. trust me. in the bike life, you'll get giggled at.. trust me, spicy
Spicy peanut butter damn you are spicy. Good advice bro/sis.
man I started crying at the end. This is a beautiful story of what can happend when people really do care and try. and you know what Joe is right danny had to work on himself too by getting a job and trying and he did but also Joe ,cody ,dav and dav's mom ,neighbors and a.p.s. army all helped. What a lovey story .Even his landloard and new boss giving him a chance. keep up the good work danny. You can do it it is never to late.every one has felt they were in there own prison at one point in there life even if they were not actually in one. It is how you handle it that sets the corse of the rest of you life.
YES it's not what happens to you it's how you handle it!
Ive been so excited for this video today. You have proved what a great guy you are time after time again. Its been an honor to watch your channel grow and because of that its opened the doors for you to be able to help someone truly deserving like Danny. You have a great heart Joe❤👊 Nice work APS
It's really good what you're all doing for Danny, I can understand how things would be so hard for him without you! I hope that it's all for something!
You're a great group of guys! More power to you!
So great to see he’s smiling now. He was somber at first but then once he got comfortable he laughed and joked with ya’ll which has gotta be a great feeling. He looks great and I wish him all the best.
Joe and APS you are doing some amazing philanthropical work. So nice to see the connection and support from a community that knows how hard it is to get back up.
Happiness, is like pissing your pants. Everyone can see it on you but only you can feel the warmth...God bless man ;)
Spindleshanks 0010 Maybe this will get best comment of the week 😜
lol :) all humor aside this whole thing is just amazing. im so happy for all these guys helping eachother out.
Unfortunately yeah, happiness don't last forever. But atleast that cold sticky crotch will always remind you of the good times.
It's funny cuz it's true 😂😂😂😂😂
Seeing Danny's general demeanor and facial expressions change throughout the series has been one of the greatest things ive ever witnessed. This is real happiness. I really hope Danny finds a permanent spot on APS because I look forward to seeing him in the videos just as much as I do y'all. Love from Southern Ohio/West Virginia again!
Congrats Danny we luv you out here man ..👌🏽✌🏽💚
"It's a bad day to quit smoking". Haha! I'm so glad you watched that video clip! As a former smoker, I know where you're coming from, man.
Stay blessed
Thumbs up to you Joe, Danny showing his lease, the smile on his dial. You are one of a kind bro.
I have done 10 years here in Australia and getting over the prison mindset is one of the hardest things.
You need to do a prison cooking video with Danny please & thank you
yeah like a aps series called cooking with Danny at his new pad!
Great idea!
Joe, you did good man. If you're ever in DC, drinks on me my dude
YES !!! What a great " feel good " story, Joe, Dave, and Cody. You should package up all your Danny episodes and find a way to get them out to guys coming out who could benefit ( and who couldn't ? ) from your help and ever growing connections in the community. State and Federal funding in the future ? Who knows ! Don't lose track of Danny ! You said in Pt 2 you guys were gonna go hang out in 6 months. I have it on my calendar for Feb 2019. What a great story. Well done guys !!! Another APS Army victory, one in a growing list...
I wish I could live near y'all. Reason is I works live to be a part of what y'all are doing. This is so great Joe, Dave and Cody. God bless y'all.
Ive been watching videos here and there for the past couple years..i seen the captain and im hooked..i litterly shed tears.. its so damn beautiful to see MEN with so much compassion. I pray that everything works out. You guys already been blessed keep it going. This hits home so close the love of my life has been locked up for 14 years and is finally up for parole . All i can do is pray things will work out. He has a strong mind and im very hopeful for his future, most of all i have his back first as a friend. I have no expectations for him but to live his life. He makes promises about our future, i just want him to experience life first before making a commitment. Thanks for listening
I would be willing to donate again to help him furnish his apartment get some tv,pot pans new couch coumputer thing he needs to have a full apartment.
I think if he starts an Amazon wish list it would be perfect....
Izzy Mal great idea
I totally agree. I'd buy from it.
A coffee maker would be my first thought. 😀
Sustainable growth is key, let him get acquainted with his stuff, eventually he will even be able to buy his own things.
Next episode you should have danny take you to lunch and talk about how his job is and life is
This was a great series. Good job joe and APS army. Good luck in life Danny.
You lot are so good for helping Danny out and also Danny seems like such a humble guy. I hope he makes it in the free world.
It's crazy to see the change and Danny's demeanor. It truly goes to show that people who say they are institutionalized and cannot make it in society are just making excuses. This man has spent 2/3 of his life in Prison, and would just some help from you guys in some viewers he's already got a really good start to a life that most people with all the help in the world still don't have. Because he took the initiative, refused to make excuses, and did what he had to do. I'm a 29 year old single dad That has never been to prison, and he is doing better than I am. truly inspirational, and I hope the story has a happy ending permanently.
Goodluck Danny you the man bro.. thanks joe and Dave for helping him and everyone who donated and watched this series... 🤙
I wait everyday for these uploads! Keep up the good work Danny! And APS,ur great peeps!
WOW!!! To all the APS army and supporters, YOU ALL have made a massive difference to DANNY'S life,😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Rocked my soul. Thank you aps and the army. I still got a chance for a future
We need more Danny. We want to see him adjust to life on the outside and most of all we want more smiles! Keep up the good work Joe. This is your life's mission.
