Say what you want about Gronk, but he has a heart of GOLD.
Gronks kindness cannot be mesured. He is an inspiration.
Kids pretty tough. Gronks a great guy for going out of his way and making this kids life a little better. A lot of people won’t even take five minutes out of their day to say high to someone they pass on the streets.
great comment but its hi not high
david sandlin amen
Thats why i respect gronk❤
The NUMBER ONE biggest thing that no one talks about...GRONK does so much for people who are less fortunate...GOD BLESS GRONK
How do you dislike this? Jesus. Good for this, kid.
I think jealousy
I don't know how ANYONE could dislike this video. Have a heart!
Omg Gronk you made that Kid fight for his health and made his day a memory he will be able to use strenght for the rest of his life. You are the man!!!
I am a die-hard Steelers fan and this story brought me to tears I do love the Patriots I know a lot of people say how can you love the Steelers and love the Patriots but I'll look at the Patriots locker room and there is no turmoil nobody wants to cause trouble like our locker room with the Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell. I truly believe that Tom Brady is the goat and I love this video because Rob Gronk Gronkowski.
As a fellow person with epilepsy, I salute u robbie. Keep trucking
He's doing well
Gronk is a great football player. He is an amazing person. Rob is down to earth and cares about other people. All the best to you Gronk in the future.
Made me cry. Gronk you’re the best!
I can’t believe that I would like a patriots video ever - rams fan
Still watching this video to this day, I remember what happened to Robbie, he was in my 5th grade class at veterans memorial in naples Florida. Such a smart athletic kid, we now go to the same high school, he’s still the same great kid he was in 5th grade
He's doing good, my cousin is his dad's business partner down in south Georgia
Gronk is one of my favorite players. Much respect
3:10 damn that’s a pretty good swing. Better than some kids on my 16u baseball team. Keep it up Robbie you’re an inspiration to all!!
Poor kid😞 that’s great he survived & I’m not a gronk fan, but gronk a very nice, sweet, humble, intelligent guy, & great player! Keep doing what your doing god bless🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
What a beautiful story and and amazing fight to recovery. Good luck Robbi, I am cheering for you. Stay strong alway's. ❤❤❤❤
Big heart Gronk!!!
My favorite player. That’s what players should be doing. Making impacts helping people.
Wow, Rob's got a big heart. He's an inspiration too
God i can't imagine seeing your kid like that...gut wrenching...
Inspirational!. What an incredible kid. Praying my brother!. Hope your doing well.
Good man Gronk. ;)
There’s been times where I’m sure all of us have wanted to give up but then there’s certain things that make us realize life is worth it. This is one of them.
Gronk is the real deal! Always gives his undivided attention to these charities and organizations.. takes the time out of his schedule and puts them first over himself and most important he gives back.. that definitely says a lot about his character..I think one thing about Gronk is he doesn't take things too seriously he just goes with the flow.. what an inspiration to everyone out there.. whether you like him or you don't or if you're not a patriot fan or if you are he is one class humanitarian..
Not a Patriots fan, but this, unreal! Tganks Gronk, good luck Robbie
He made a video for my football team a team that came in 9th place in the country in 2017 one of my coaches dad's is good friends with gronk
Gronkowski is awesome
gronk is truly inspiring
Everyone who hates the NFL should watch these videos. No matter what team you root for, what city you're from, what color you are, who you voted for...we're all sitting down together on Sunday having fun.
Football brings us together. That's what America is all about, Charlie Brown.
awesome!heart touching...
Another reason why we love Gronk😊
Outstanding. God Bless you little guy. Rob job well done.
Gronk is a truly genuine person, he loves kids.
Keep fighting robbie!!! You're amazing!!!!
The whimsical/melancholy/hopeful music in these things always kills me.
God Bless you young man.
This kid is AMAZING!
Not expecting to cry the whole video.
Breaks my heart
Broke my heart ! So happy for the kid ! Hope he is getting better. Please Dear Lord Please help this child and give his family patience. Ameen
Robbie your my hero!!!
Is very important Gronk, thanks ♥️
Gronks a good dude
Gronk is a 6’6” 265lb golden retriever puppy
GRONK IS ALWAYS DOING THIS KIND OF STUFF - REAL STARS ALWAYS GIVE BACK
Moments like these are so much bigger than football.
Someone's chopping onions dammit................
The Gronkowski family are such nice people.
VERY NICE!
Awesome
Amazing
I am born and raised in the town that rob gronkowski went to college In fact he was just here saturday for homecoming
That's was an awesome story.
Robbie is still doing well. I haven't had the pleasure of meeting him, but his dad is my cousin's business partner
NOT CRYING
if anyone personally know gronk tell him that he the number 87 me forever and counting to me. and if he asks tell him i was adopter and thats why gronk is awsome and could make a great dad someday
Hey don't it's me gabe your best friend from school north naples middle school I'm here this is so cool let's go patriots 👌
Stay well
Young dude seemed so offended she had to ask who his favorite was
The Gronk is a fkn legend!!
Gronk may be a total goofball but man, he is one incredible guy
He goes to my school I just find that out today
Really
Wow 😮
Can you tell him that I like Tom Brady
Perfect
Gronk is a powerhouse who brings more attention to researching how to stop seizures; especially what this brave kid has endured in his life. I have had eleven of these super intense seizures...unable to walk for many hours at a time and not knowing if I ever would again and....The worst part, by far, is feeling like I'm being electrocuted so badly that not dying to be out of my misery is far worse than any fear of death. We need much more research on seizures--especially at well funded places such as NIH. This kid is a thousand times tougher than many people may even begin to imagine him being.
Gronknis the god damm man!!!!!
This is when sports are bigger than sports
This is heart warming and all but did gronk just say they're Intelligent 😂💀
I'm not crying.
You're crying.
This was so cute
God bless everyone and have a good day .
i love gronk
Recuerdas a tu amigo compañero Aarón Hernandez 🙏😇🙎♂️verdad
So this is why Rob went to Tampa Bay
Tooucching man grreat guys
So, finally Gronk arrived in Florida !!!
Who tf cutting onions?😭😂😂
Now Who's the gronk kid at school
How is this young man doing
Good
I know him
I would love to meet that kid I have some problems with my body too so I know how that feels my favorite player is Tom Brady I am a kid too
Ezclaps Boys I know this is a little late but he’s right next to me.
In Gronk We Trust.
I claim total healing for this boy. In the name and authority of Jesus Christ. Amen! What a strong boy, Good family. Gronk is consistently a good human being.
They should get him one of those specially trained service dogs that can detect seizures and warn people and keep the person with seizures cognizant.
He has one I’m his friend
People are acting like Gronk used to be a serial killer
“ say what you want about him” and everything
14-3
Lmfao
gronk is now one of my favorite players. still hate brady
The dislikes for this must be Hitler, Saddam Hussein, Osama Bin Laden, Stalin, Ted Bundy, Nancy Pelosi, and the rest are Jets fans.
ih grankcoskey
hi
4
I hope his parents have tried pure god given Mother Nature grown cannabis oil for the seizures
Damn sadly the eagles beat the patriots in Super Bowl that year
Rob is gone
Samir Huq what
Negative..
Band wagon kid
n0x he was born in new England what 😂
n0x Lmaoo
I don't care, this kid defied odds while you continued being a keyboard warrior, get a life.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
