I played against this guy in basketball on cruise boat 😂 he strong as hell
Lmao
Jsteazee Yeah Adam was a really cool dude on the boat wish him well
Playing basketball on a cruise ship is horrible. The wind always blew my shot away lol
Yooo
Foreal
“He looked a little Darren Sproles?” Darren Sproles would look like Derrick Henry compared to him. 🤣🤦🏽♂️
You never actually say how short the Shapiro guy is
@@erickgreig4007 Around 5 foot and 115 pounds.
00:32 when I wrestle with my toddler son and pretend he hurt me in order to boost his confidence.
Western Chauvinist lol they got hands fr fr😂😂
😂😂😂
LMFAOOOOOOOOOO
😂😂😂😭😭😭
This might seem random but Jesus loves you and times aren’t good and we need to rely on Jesus to guide us because we see corruption everywhere and so much sin and corruption everywhere. Relationship over religion. Jesus is a prayer away and just because you haven’t had an experience with Him doesn’t mean He’s not real :)
NEW VIDEO: What Happened to Michael Oher from “The Blindside”?

Chase Chats look him up
OMG he lined up at FB! Straight soldier!
He has got a brass set for sure!
I was gonna guess half back
“Deaf nfl player” proceeds to show guy wearing headphones lol.
Deaf ppl wear headphones so ppl don't try to talk to them and think ther ignoring them.
Broke Malone rcrc was a r
@Philip Tucker oh wow I didn’t know that. Thanks for informing me kind sir
Maybe he could get a biden implant?
Move to a different state far away sign up for middle school can play football all over again thru middle and high school
I’m convinced this happens by the weight and muscles of my sons opposing teams in 6th grade... no 6 grader is 6’5 and built like a freight train
@@dahl2525 I am sure there are but also 15 year olds who cheat. We played little league tallest kid out there was like 6'4 or 6'5 their shoulders were way above my head. I am guessing their shoulders were at 5'7 and 5'8. I was 5'2 and 12/13 years old.
@@dahl2525 I'm with you, I remember playing pop warner football against a kid who was LeBron James size.
It reminds me of Carlos from the movie Bench Warmer's, when he had a id written in crayon that said I AM 12! and he was clearly 30! 😂
Of course it's a movie, and they allowed him to play, but it happens.
I read a story about some guy who moved from his town to another, after college.
He played basketball in highschool, and kept hearing about some African kid who was really good.
To find out that African kid, and him played for the same highschool years ago, and he had a different name. 🤷😂😂😂
@@nathanielking8310 You aren't talking about that 6'5 Haitian man who was pretending to be 15 in Florida who impregnated a girl and got in trouble?
That's funny but wrong at the same time.Haha
No way this is a real story 😳
Why wasn't "MINNIE" MACK HERRON who played for the new England patriots in the mid 70s ? Stood 5'3 and was actually pretty good!
Why wasn't he... what??
The Lurchness Monster !! Fax
The Lurchness Monster !! Why wasn’t he on the list is what he meant.
He was 5'6"
He was 5'6
The shortest player in the NFL is a little bit BS. Today’s NFL is a very different game. I need 1970+ to count in my book.
Should be limited to shortest player of Super Bowl era.
On Point Travel I was thinking 💭 the samething
The average height of a male has changed almost 4 inches since the 1920s anyway because the average man was only about 5’7 then and today it’s 5’10-5’11
How do you have a video about height but not tell us the height of the shortest player ever in the NFL... From 1927.. How tall was the guy????
@@jrodny21 wasnt that Jack Shapiro
the 5’1 dude who played in 1921?
Every time he hit someone he got called for a chop block
😂😂😂
I bet a lot of short people watching this video like, “I can do it !!”
Anyone can do anything, I played wide receiver in my high school years and I’m 4’3!
@@comicjustinlive imagine being that short
I love being short. I would never change it but it’s good to see small people doing big things.
My height is 7’2
@Philly Sports ye I know I’m just kiddin
I used to attend heritage and I remember him being such awesome dude
Could you imagine if he got tackled by Aaron Donald lol
Oof
ryan Gabriel or Troy fuckin Polamalu
😳
My mans would get full sent 🤠💀
Or got smacked by ed reed
Don't forget 5'5" Willie Quinn "Heart over Height" who played at Southern University and A&M College a few years ago. One of the best and dynamic receivers to play at Southern. He was very fun to watch on the field.
It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog.
Luke silvas how so ?
It does make sense but he wont make it in the NFL
Any bad ass LB
The Rock said it's always the size of the dog lmfao
If your less than 100 pounds and you have a 200+ defensive linemen or linebacker running at you with a full head of steam, you will feel that for a long time
There was a wide receiver who played for the oilers and the falcons in the early 90's who came into the league at 139lbs. I believe he was 5'6. If memory serves correct, his name was Tony Jones.
Wow Blud has a crazy memory
Pretty sure those kids "tackling" didn't want to paralyze him.
Anyone can hurt on the field idiot
This is a big inspiration to me... my whole family is under 5”8
Dam bro
😑
Same lol I am praying to get them good genes 🧬
This guy is 4'5 he looks smaller than that I feel for him like serious. Maybe his parents did something wrong and it affected his size?
@@ichoosemysanity6467 genetics.
I was an athletic trainer intern at a rival college and this guy caught my eye immediately.
04:45 RIP
Lls yea they cut the hit he took.....aint trying show it 😂😂😂😂
Waxed his shit
Lol I peeped that two. Probably why he gave it up
You stooopid😭😭😭😭😭
3:23
These guys are inspirational. Thank you for this excellent report
As soon as I saw AZ I got excited cuz I live here. I then heard they were talking abt JJ Taylor ive been watching him so long and didn’t know he was short but damn hes good
Its like trying to tackle A rabbit loose on the field l guess .Haha
Dat will be hard to do
@Neptunes Vag sounds like you got ran over by a rabbit to me
@Neptunes Vag that doesnt make a lot of sense. If you cant catch it, what makes you think youll be able to kick it?
That was some legit "tackling"
You can’t really do much at 95 pounds I’ll be honest
Ppl say he is strong asf
not hating but the guy might be strong but he wouldnt have college strength and def not nfl.
@B Massaro 💀nigga hells hot
xxIsoYvnginxx - he’s not lmao, he’s smaller than a 10 year old
you can eat
Darren Sproles was one of my absolute favorites when it came to small and fast running backs. This man reminds me of that mindset so much. I'd love to see him coaching and teaching young men what it is to be just that. Young men.
I'm waiting for the next Human Joystick aka Dante Hall to come into the league and dazzle the scene once again as an all-round utility player.
JJ's high school highlights from Corona Centennial are sick. We played against him he that team was full of beasts every year. JJ was spectacular.
My dude was taking out knee caps. But shout out to him he was grinding out there.
Didn't expect to see you here wtf
He was a kneecap
Dan Cambell would love him
You missed tiny Mack Herron who was a RB for the patriots, as I recall he was 5’2”. The Saints also had a very short RB in the 70’s
The guy on the Saints was Howard Stevens. He was their punt returner for five seasons. This guy could have just asked a few older people and he could have gotten just as much information. for this clip.
He was 5'5.
I can’t even imagine this dude taking 1 JUST ONE SNAP IN THE NFL “ god lord have Mersi 🙏🏽😯🙏🏽
4:45 he aint make it after dat hit they aint show it......
AD Tonetone lolBRO DUDE LOOK LIKE HE FLEW BACK
I believe the Mack Herron was also 5' 5". He played with the NE Patriots & ATL Falcons from 1973-75. He was was drafted by the Falcons in 1970.
The most diesed guy on my division 3 college team was 5'4" 190 RB, and squatted 615
Football is a brutal sport, I hope these little dudes stay healthy.
Imagine being 2nd strong to a 4’ 5” dude
I played against him he’s got heart bruh
Man here I am like 5’8 1/2 and I loved the game of football ever since I was a kid I literally played every single day as a kid that’s all I dreamed about was being in the NFL as a kid but everyone used to tell me that I was too small to go anywhere in football so for the most part I just gave up and started running with the wrong crowd started skipping practice and everything because I never thought I’d go anywhere because of my size but when I see this it legit makes me mad and happy at the same time mad because I gave up on my dream of being pro but happy because these people didn’t let their size bring them down
Well you could have atleast ended up playing D3 college football or NAIA ball. Everybody can't play D1 or go pro but at least do what you love to do man. I am 5'9.75 and I dreamed of playing TE but I was always 6 inches too short but I could gain weight easy af. I was strong and had good hands ran like a 4.6/4.7 etc but my parents homeschooled me and I was way shorter when I was 13 😂.
5'6.25" here
4 years of high school ball (look up Ben Rao Wentworth on maxpreps) 22 tackles, tied the national average in tackles at
Middle linebacker. Played 1 year of college ball DIII. You're big enough to play RB if you gain lower body weight. Don't give up, push yourself as far as you can go.
Imagine lying to a kid like this and taking it easy on him. Setting him up for failure in life
Kid looks like he earned everything given to him.
God bless that young man
My favorite was Patriots RB Willie Mack Herron. 5'5", he played in the same backfield with Sam "The Bam" Cunningham (Randalls big brother).
JJ Taylor played yesterday in Week 1 and had a few carries and a reception 👍 looked pretty good, pass wasn't great but he snagged it and showed quickness.
When you were talking about the guy from Stapleton that was the shortest player ever, you forgot to mention how short he was. Kinda the most important piece of information to the story.
I wondered if anyone else caught that.🙄
5"6 'Lionel James 1985 Chargers. James set the NFL record for all purpose yards in a season with 2,535 yards. He also set the record for receiving yards by a running back with 1,027 yards,
Joe Morris did okay for himself, breaking Jim Brown's rushing record at Syracuse and then became a SB champ with the NYG... and 2x Pro-Bowler...
I hear they mostly only use him in short yardage situations
Imangine if he was a lineman, shit would be iconic.
Obviously.
Or a kicker
NBA
Great video
I have to admit i admire this kid Adam Reed overcoming the odds to make his high school football team just incredible if that's not guts I don't know what is
I went to school with a kid who was 4’10 knew him all my life played sports with and against him, he was one the quickest athletes you’ll see, footwork crazy, and not to mention he was the only dude in the in the 130-145 weight class lifting with the heavyweights, like easily squatting 400 for 3 I kid u not and this is in high school, size doesnt matter hardwork and determination does and can take u a lot farther than u think
Was it Adam Reed ?
It’s actually sad that they pander to him and take it easy on him gives him a false perspective of life.
I was gonna say. Its damn near disrespectful if were being honest here
He tries so hard to be his best on the field and other players dont even take him seriously when they go easy like that.
For real bro
I wouldn't even play if I were him.
Kansas State has 5'5 165 lb Deuce Vaughn , leads the team in rushing and receiving as a true freshman.
Did he forget Little Train James? The Charger returner was under 5'6
This gotta be one of your shortest videos .
When he mentioned Rudy I dont know why but I was really excited cause I LOVE tht movie
now I don't feel so bad being a rb at 5'9.
0:30 that’s a good teammate
Damn out of all the highlights, they use my high school 😂 (first team, red and white)
Is it Mater Dei, in Santa Ana, CA
Please dont tell me that lil dude pooped on yall. Lol
@@tubeyou22973 ohh nahh we only played them in the playoffs lol I never seen him on the field when they play us
@@dochol1day296 no it’s Immokalee, Fl
@@kingwesley6840 for sure...thanks, now I know
I liked the voice ! guys genuinely a artist ! I dont really pay attention i feel like I can recite what was said almost word-for-word verbatim
These guys inspire me so much
You've really gotta hand it to short people...because we usually can't reach it anyways🙃🤣
Me being a 5'1 freshman who bearly grows this video just gave me inspiration for football😅
I was 5’3 as a freshman now I’m 5’11 as a junior you gon grow
Damn I was abt 5’4 now I’m a jr on varsity at 5’6 in a half
@@carvellindacut7367 wow I'm only in 7th and I'm only 4'9 I hope the same happens to me lol
Zach Attack. It is bro watch you’re going to see
I was 5'7 as a freshman and maybe 5'9 or 10 😒 but at least I grew something.
I love how his teammate fell down from his little push
Was so obvious on one play, kid fell on purpose
I’m short and told been told I’m too small to play HS football, but after seeing this dude, I’m inspired!
Back when I was in high school we a had Little person played football with us, he only played his freshman year because people was knocking him out the field lol
Thudercats Linebacker how big was he
I’m 5,6 120 pounds freshman, so I’m also small
Im 5-6 150 lb
I’m trying to get up to 130-135
Not Michael yeah I’m short but I hold the weight well, I look 125
Im 5'5 inspired by these guys. I played RB, MLB , slot , & safety in high school. I was dumb to have quit my senior year, i didnt play semi pro but didnt.but maybe I'll start coaching
Whaaaaat
"here what we do know. He studied buss- *insert death noises*
Don't forget old School Tony Jones at 5' 6", Maurice Jones-Drew at 5' 7", Ray Rice & Tavon Austin (both at 5' 8")... Tarik Cohen, Trindon Holliday, Sproles are all nice. Rooting for JJ Taylor and wishing him great success with the Patriots. He is an incredible player!
Trindon Holliday they've also listed him in Track & Field at 5' 5" for LSU. He is probably the fastest one on the list across the boards at 40 yard, 40 meter, 60 meter and 100 meter with a 10.00 flat! 😳 Not necessarily at 40 yard dash but definitely 60 & 100 NO DOUBT!!!
This motivates me just a little bit more, 5’4 varsity junior in high school. but i’m not done growing and if I have to go juco to go d1 i will. 🙏
You can do it!
Check out Mack Herron of the Patriots. He played in the early 70's. He was good. Stay off drug's.
jj Taylor is 5’4
Stay clean and close to God. Stay away from drugs.
Do the best you can. 🙏
Dude God bless u I wanna play ball in the NFL, and get big I'm only 5"9 playing lb.
We see a lot of “little” running backs.
My question is, since players at all the other positions have gotten bigger, faster and stronger, why does it seem like there aren’t any BIG running backs anymore?
Its better to be short and stocky as a rb, cause of lower center of gravity and what not. We do got Derrick Henry though
@@justinprave5031 you’d think the same would apply to linebackers?
Passing league
@@justinprave5031 , I seen how he plays and he plays like a beast. Also, you cannot forget about Jevon Kearse as well, as The Freak was a small guy that played as tough as a big guy, and he was also arguably as fierce as Ray Lewis on the field.
I was thinking he died with a title question like that.
3:26 HIS DEFENSIVE BRICKWALL TACKLE BREAKING 🙆🙋🤦
Everyone who took it easy on him shame on you. Reality strikes harder when you are lied to.
He became Tarik Cohen
He can't do this he can't do that he too small I say keep grinding brethren change the narrative despite where it may take you this is inspirational
Trick look like he can pull trucks 😂
3:24 boy got his ass rocked!
Looked like a glitch
😂😂😂
He got blaaaasted in the Rice highlight 🤣
🤣
Bruuuuh🤣🤣🤣🤣 all caps.. he got STUFFED
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
People mentioned the omission of Mini Mack Heron and Howard Stevens, who played five years in the NFL also comes to mind. Both were listed at 5'5", sometimes 5'4" with Heron being an integral player for the Patriots in his NFL Stint. And, did we mention 5'4" Buddy Young who played nine NFL seasons?
Sony Michel at 5'11'' and 215 pounds is pretty typical NLF running back size. That is identical to Marshawn Lynch.
Old NY Giant’s RB Joe Morris 5’5 in beast as a back
Joe Morris was 5"7 big difference.......
This skins fan thinks joe morris was beast.
I’m actually I Buccaneer since 76 ... I just remembered when I was a kid watching Joe Morris but I thought he was smaller , but a beast he was!!
when I was in Jo Corps, we had a flag football team that was in a league against city teams. we had our running back at 5' 2" and went by the name Turtle. no one could grab his flags cause he was so low to the ground.
Nice story but we are not talking about flag football
@@donaldlove9202 football is football
Y’all not see him push him he push him like one punch man😂😂
by your side
Y’all forgot about that dude jakeem grant from Texas tech who played with Patrick Mahomes he was only 5’6 played for the dolphins
@mr mamba huh
Jj Taylor is 5'5
Emanuel "Soupy" (March 22, 1907 - February 5, 2001) was a professional who in one game with the Staten Island Stapletons of the National League () in 1929. is most famous for being the in history at about 5 ft 1 in (1.55 m).You're welcome.
He only weighed 119 lbs too
At 4:44 he got his ass TORE UP 🤣
Good luck lil fellar in whatever u wanna do in life.
0:30 Shawn Michaels would be proud of that WWE oversell. Lmfao
He’s the mini tyreek hill lol
Reggie Smith wr/ db played for the falcons, redskins, and jets he was 5'4" he was pretty fast and elusive.
They flip up in the air like ball on that one play
It seems he'd be hard to tackle bc he's so much smaller than other players. Keep doing whatcha do tho. 🏈
He will not last in the nfl , i love his story but im sorry they will crush him lmao
@@torrezmcquin1401 Most def. I just meant at the lower levels lol. I'd hate to see how the pros would treat him 💀
I love Tarik Cohen, all us Bears fans do. He isn’t just a great player but just a super fun player all around, we love the dude.
Mack Willie Herron was a professional American football running back who played in the National Football League from 1973 to 1976. 5'6", 174lbs
I used to do work for Derrick Thomass...one of his friends was a CB from the KC Chiefs that was 5'4"...played pool with him a few times...Mark McMillan was his name...
His nickname was Mighty Mouse...
Mack Herron played for the Patriots and the Falcons in the NFL from 1973 to 1976. He was 5' 5'' and 175 lbs.
That's 5'5 were talking about 4'5
Ok I get the advantages of having this tiny dude being a runner and reciever, but a blocker? Is that just in spite, how can he block someone? Maybe a cut block but idk.
We all slow down for speed bumps bruh
0.30 bruh that acting 🤣🤣🤣
He had nothing left to prove, besides that a 95lb RB at the College level is dangerous.
Shortest NFL running back I believe was Mack Herron who played a couple of years in New England back in the 70's. I think he was 5' 5". Okay Jack Shapiro.
Jack was 5’ 1”
Mack Herron was 5' 3
Mack Herron was really good. Too bad he got caught up in drugs.
Jack Shapiro was a 5'1 125 Fullback
