This is a Very Inspirational video of a Runner Named Derek Redmond who seriously Injured himself during an Olympic Race. Despite the Agonising Pain and Distortion he Kept on Running. As he was Limping on the Track an Older man Ran Down and Broke though security to Support him, it was his Father. " if Never Give up in Life you Cant Fail "
I DO NOT OWN THE MUSIC IN THE VIDEO.

Song : You Raised me up - Zábava
some person wins medals and some wins hearts.
Basic Gyaan very well said
Do you see why he is the man he is? Look at who raised him.
what's good is, initially he is "a big man" saying I'm going to finish this... then when he realises it's his dad there beside him he returns to the child we all have inside us. we are always our parents children, even when parents ourselves.
fishyc150 soooo true !

I can't help but think about Christina Crawford and Gary Crosby,
wow well said and good absorber
a father's love is supreme
Divine supreme love PARENTS.
A winner is a dreamer who never gives up
Thanks for your comment :)
+Inspiring Videos it was a great video, I didn't cry, but that doesn't mean I was touched
+ExtremeGamer 869 why it's sad I cried for hours 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
what's name song
in the despricion sorry for bad spelling
the gold medalist got their fifteen minutes of fame ... but you know who will be remembered forever? who will come to mind when you think of the four hundred meter dash at the summer Olympics in Barcelona? THIS GUY
this never gets old. there's nothing like a father's love!
when you don't give up ,
YOU CANNOT FAIL
In today's world
I wish everyone were his dad and helping other like his son as in the video
hmm
devtra ahanthem “when you don’t give up, you can’t fail”- that sentence is really stupid
What makes it more sad is the music
Wait, how is this sad? Like seriously, what's sad about this? Isn't his helping father rather a good thing?
***** but then it's not sad if it's a happy thing
yousef fandy I know the music makes it more sad
+RainbowXplode yeah it sad but in a very very very happy way
yep
he showed he is a real man:)
Thanks for watching :)
+Inspiring Videos this was sad but is he ok
how so?
+Coconut What is it that you're not understanding?
how injury makes a person a real man?
Derek Redmond was badass!!!! He was part of the greatest 4x4 team ever when they beat the Americans in 1991. And then he did this. I felt terrible for him that he pulled his hamstring in one of the biggest races of his life, but this was a great olympic moment. Tom Hammond had a great call on NBC when he said "That is the Olympic spirit."
brought tears to my eyes
+chanel Gerrard Thanks for watching
Courageous effort. Had tears too

This reminds me of when my dad passed away, 1 day before he got sick he saved a woman from a car crash. I never realized how much of a great person my dad was, since he was strict, i only noticed why he was strict after he passed. He had a stroke, and most people die from this type of stroke in about 1-2 weeks. My dad was a fighter and he made it 7 weeks before he passed away. only at his funeral was when i realized how much he actually loved me and my brothers and sister. My mom told us how he left out on bills just to make us happy and get us things, and i feel so dumb to think that wasnt enough and that i needed more. Before he got sick, the morning i was going to school he told me if i wanted to play sports. I told him "i dont know if i will be that good". We had a conversation that I dont say to anyone. But everyday before a game i think of it and now im on the road to being a HOF Dtackle in my league.
Ryan Money keep your head up your dad is in a better place
Im sorry for your dad, I hope you will be safe god bless you!!! :)
Dads are incredible people...They have (had) a lot to teach us.
they are
Ryan Money I'm sorry..I bet your dad was a GREAT man..And hope heaven is nice for him! 😚😚💖💖

luke Thompson Thanks for watching :)
That fine credit to you for making it and the man
YEA
luke Thompson yep
Yes well done didn't cry but well done he did good
nothing is better than a strong family. for all the dad's who ran out on their kids watch and learn how it's done. I'm 43 my daughter is 10 and I will never leave her side until I die. me and my wife have been together since we where 14 years old we are now 43 and still going strong our daughter is 10. I know how this father felt. he was so proud of his son that day.
Nothing like a good family, good job Dad.
Definitely brought tears to my eyes.
Teresa Guzman Thanks for watching :)
Inspiring Videos what are you talking about? She only said this brought tears in her eyes.

Same here! I was already in tears, but that cap pushed them into warp drive.
Yes! :D

+Coconut what is ur problem??? With all these comments what is ur problem?

Dad is very special in our life
Salute to his dad and a big salute to u sir..
Never give up..
Don't stop when it hurts, stop when you are done

That shouldn't mean you should give up. Finish what you started. That is what good athletes do.
This was the most heart melting story ever

+Elkhalki Yassine
..?
As a father I can relate to the support that Derek's dad gave him. It's these gestures of human kindness that separate us from robots. A smile, a hug, a gift, a compliment, a silent blessing, some heartfelt thanks, a word of encouragement, a bit more support, a bit more friendship and we can give them every day to everybody that we can meet, we can change the world with these little acts of kindness, these little acts of caring, we can make the world a better place, we have that power within us always. I wish for you all peace, love and harmony. I love you xxx
The human heart is unstoppable when full of love.
One of the finest examples of true familial love and support ever demonstrated. My hat's off in honor of your selfless action. The world is in serious need of others who have the desire to help better those who have yet to realize such nobility of heart and soul.
I'm over being badass not crying until it says it was his father
lol same!
yeaah same
IKR
I DIDN'T CRY UNTIL THEY SAID THAT
True
same omg.
I nearly cried, this is just an amazing story..
+JenniJay145 Thanks for watching :)
JenniJay145 I just cut some onions, I am not crying.... :(
+rod ney it was YOU cutting onions ONLINE! DAMN YOU! 😄😢😇
I didn't cry for some reason
+Mickey Mouse Gaming same as me
what a warrior never give up your still a winner

+Bianca Ekenaike LOL me too!
+Bianca Ekenaike Such a girl...ok ok it almost got me too, at the exact same part but I said no...not this time daddy feelings.:/
popeopera haha yeah im such a girl, cmon it got ya' didn't it!!!
+Bianca Ekenaike Only if you count crying on the inside...
haha yep i do!
Regardless of what one may think, what is important to take from this is the BEST quality that we have as the human race: perseverance and hope.
One other thing is we tend to focus oftentimes on the love of a mother which is inspiring, BEAUTIFUL and unique. However a fathers love is just as strong and unique in its on way. This here shows the support and strength a GOOD father gives his child when he feels at his most vulnerable point. Very touching video.
Wow 😭😭👌
I have so much respect for you. You sir are a true man.
Forgetful Vlogger PREACH 👍
Forgetful Vlogger Thank you my friend. Peace and Strength to you and all that you wish to achieve in life. Embrace life to the fullest and be grateful for each and EVERY day. 😃
Curtis Ostriker I
God Bless Derek and his father.
It's standing ovation frm crowd 65k there..but every person watching here are billions giving a standing ovation by 💓...
I never had a father like that before...
+genericname1 lol 😂😭
+genericname1 Actually, it's scientifically impossible to not have a father.
I get what your saying, that you've never seen your father or heard from him, but your choice of words is incorrect.
***** Well then you're just being more incorrect.. If you have met him, and said you've never had a father, it literally just makes no sense at all. I mean, I was adopted from Russia by a single mother, so I really have no idea who my father is. It doesn't matter if he's a deadbeat dad, you still have a dad. I understand it's just a figure of speech to say you never had a father. But you could've just said you've never had a _real_ father.
By the way it wasn't really funny. Especially in your predicament, this video and none of it's comments should be considered funny.
+Miguel Reyes I never had a father like this either. My father never faltered, never cried and did not break down in front of an adulating crowd...he saved his tears for his private moments. He would never have broken down like this...he was the bedrock in my life. I can honestly say the one and only time I EVER saw him wince and shed a single tear was on his deathbed,...and all he asked of me as the eldest son was to take care of my mother, my sisters and brother.
mapearce1 I am sorry for your loss
At the start i was like "I would not Cry"
At the Middle"Oh Damn Where did this feels come from.."
SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL & HEART WARMING. I WISH I HAD THAT CONNECTION WITH MY FATHER. I SALUTE YOU BOTH. AND THE SONG IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE OF ALL TIME. THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGING WORDS DURING THE VIDEO. THEY ARE SO POWERFUL. THANKS FOR THIS POST.
Just watched this. ..I'm so touched and motivated by this young man...a lesson well taught from this. ...no matter what obstacle you face you can find ways to move on to accomplish what you started out to do... and most times if not all....all you need is a little assistance and encouragement. ... from someone even if they give you their opinion...what they think you should do or not do....PERSEVERANCE
I guess I am the only person who watched the whole video and didn't shed a single tear. Didn't even get tears in my eyes...
I probably could've cried if there wasn't the corny music playing as the video was going on.
***** no your not
Not the only one
Eh welcome to the "we have no heart" club
😅
you are totally right i could not end the video with out crying
+Amelia Mendonca Thanks for watching :)
I didn't cry ! I watched this like all other videos O_O
well you're heart is too hard!!!!
+Denise Farfan not true... some of us just don't cry as easily
+Seth Kuzelka I know whatch a dogs tale that is sad and bridge to up that magic world thing ya
Wish all of mankind would be KIND & courageous!
Every good dad is willing to do this and anything else to help his children no matter their age or need. Love has no limit.
When you don't give up, YOU CANNOT FAIL.
I did not cry but it was sad
Thanks for watching:)
So did I.
I didn't cry
+Lexi Fox i did not ether
I almost cried I hope God Will Help him
This video makes me cry because it reminds me so much of myself. I've had to go through so many struggles, where things seem to be impossible, and I start to give up. but my family has always been there to help me and they never let me give up
it is really very touching that he did not give up .
I cry every time I see anyone cry so I obviously lost
LOL!!!
lol
lol
Me too
same 😭😭😢
This young man is so lucky to have a Father that instilled such strength and courage in him. What a wonderful Father and son moment we were privileged to share.
The other guy may have won the race, but he won our hearts
Awesome Daddy there to help him achieve his goal to endure and help him through his pain and accomplish his goals. Very supportive! Beautiful!
How could you watch this and not cry. This is so sad. If you have a heart you'll understand.
Cry? No. Sad? No. He lost a sporting competition because of a pulled hamstring. Emotional for him, yes. But nothing to actually "cry" over, or be "sad" about.
The man was later disqualified for having somebody aid him completing the race.
Rebecca Hurst lol wtf
Rebecca Hurst The first 8 of every competion receive an Olympic Certificate. His father robbed him of that. So, I agree with Rebecca Hurst. His father should have encouraged him on the field and not helped him on the track
***** I think, the father thought more of his son's well being first and foremost....so the olympic certificate was the last thing on his mind... Don't you think? :)
Maybe a cop from Missouri could have motivated him to finish.
Honey Ryder U SIR ARE A PHUKIMG IDIOT
I have seen this on several other sites, I cry every time. I really respect this young man and his dad.
Great dad
my dad died 5 years ago and im only 17 i still miss him loads and wish he was here to comfort me through the times of trouble so he can carry me and help to my finishing goals :(
Omg is there any men in this comment thread? This isn't even sad its inspiring
Can't men cry? What's wrong with crying?
it was sweet not sad
+Fuzetic They can but if theyre crying over this they probably need something with leak protection and wings instead of a kleenex to dry their tears
agree
Michael Brown real men are not afraid to cry. We know ourselves and don't fear people judging us."
THATS AN AMAZING DAD, HES LUCKY TO HAVE A DAD LIKE HIM!
They deserved standing ovation.
Imagine how many children are there in this world who never received their fathers' love and affection, and how many fathers would there be who never give love and affection to their son....
Inspiring video...
The Olympics are brutal, because a person can spend their entire lives getting ready for something that's over in minutes. This athlete will always be remembered, not because he won a race but because he, with the help of his dad, won our hearts.
The video already made me cry. But the music turned me into a blob on the floor.
hahaha
+Seth Johnston xD
me to
Same
Me too
Parents are great. Without them we are nothing.
With a loving father you can achieve greatness! God bless all the incredible dads!
I watched this video a year ago, at that time, I thought this video was so touching and sad.
Now that my dad has departed, it took all of 2 minuted to bring me to tears, of both jealousy and longing.
the father bit done it for me, getting support from family is one of the most important things ever tbh and im so happy he has such a father to help support him :)
I know right??? My dad was my coach in all grade school sports like football basketball and baseball. Although he was no longer my coach after grade school he definitely made me feel like I had another pair of legs you know? You want to talk about a supportive father, he was it! He would make the biggest deals out of the smallest accomplishments. I'll never forget that. I miss him!
That's love in action! How blessed that young man is to have such a loving father; how blessed that father is for having a son who accepts his love!
I was minding my own business and stumbled across the video. Now I'm crying like a baby. Much respect to you sir
Touching, but not necessarily sad. I think every parent would do the same in this situation.
I honestly cried so hard
I couldn't stop crying
Jordan Tenner true i cried :"(
I held back and damn, my throat hurts!
giles166 Expand your vocabulary before saying anything to me. What you said wasn't right and you know it.
giles166 Wtf she's not a bitch and clearly if something is negative that is stated somebody is going to say something so clearly if you are tired of "bitches being so righteous"then don't say nothing that's gonna make some one state something and clearly you need to shut the fuck up💁
Shows the power of determination and having a parent to look over you. Treat your parents with respect.
Powerful, powerful, powerful message!!! how good it is to see something refreshing! everyone is not a crook!
Who puts a bowl of onions here!?
LOL
..
+rial okita XD
I know right
Patrick did
Note to self: never watch beautifully moving material at work because you'll cry, and that's no bueno at work.
hmm
I bet all the audience tears flows from their eyes out of emotions. That's an example of true dad who is always side by side whether their children rise or fall.
Thank you for the inspiration. I will strive to be as good of a father as him
I cried.... until I pushed mute... then I was fine.
hahahahaha! lol
AHAHAHAHAHAH
Only true man can cry.
shayn west fuck u
shayn west I think your wrong, people with emotions are not gay. And for you, guy, girls love emotional boys.. that makes them more manly.
Derek don't worry about win , win that people love you
Respect u man....now we don't know abt the winner but now we know abt u .....the talented man...and the last word to u is....hats off
it was the fuck'n music why are you doing this to me 😭
LOL!!!
What is the name of the song??
+Zarin Lubna it's in the description box
"you Raised me "
Darude- Sandstorm
the music was the worse.. (in a good way) ugggh shouldn't watch while going to work #runny mascara #awesome strength
Thumbsup for this great Dad.
I tried not to cry but my tears won't stop to fall😭. A great Father...😊
the power of endurance & loving support. ur an inspiration to others
Why am I always chopping onions when I see this video?
Cause ur dumb didn't realize you cutting onions
MCgold: People who don't get humor tend to be less intelligent. In other words, ur the dumb one.
You couldn't just reply instead typing my name
MCgold you dumbfuck!
Tynee Tikk It had nothing to do with being dumb ur joke is stupid old and way overused😂
take your dumbass flamewar to another video not this one ok?
This is so sad...
I've cried over and over..
The guy such a great fighter!
That music broke me into tears and the fact that he wanted to finish the race without giving up just is heart warming plus they did it father and son too!! This is so inspiring for people to never give up and be successful in everything you do! This reminded me about the time e I was racing with my friends and I twisted my ancle turning around. My mom helped me up and my friends came over and we all finished the race together! It made me cry but I didn't give up! It feels nice to success in anything!So never give up!
To the young man that kept running even though he was injured. God bless you and your father. Keep going I will pray for you.
When I see this video honesty I cry
Yes miss MaimoOna RajpOot
Lub Ediot yes? normal people cry
***** shit ! I didn't cry I think watching Isis members getting tortured fucked up my heart. Lol!!
***** you stupid I didn't say it broke my heart. I do love to see Isis members getting fucked up.
Read my comment again.
***** thats right your maybe psychopath or narcissist person :)
If I was one of the racers, I would stop, go back, and help him. I know I would get disqualified, but I like to help people
help me
this is something people train 4 years for (sometimes longer), something that could happen once in your lifetime, people take a lot of time and effort and this is probably what they have dreamt of. trust me, if you were in a situation like this you would be silly to stop just to help someone. I know it's nice and you get respect for it, but they will get help anyway, and you would be putting an opportunity to waste. this isn't just about helping someone, it's much, much bigger than that.
Cristiano Ronaldo I forgot to mention, just think about why he was crying so much, not just because he was in pain, also because it meant so much to him.
insane sanity what reason do you have to say that? And how do you know exactly that I wouldn't? You don't know who I am, how I act, so why don't you shut the fuck up and learn how to not judge people before you know them, have a nice day
once again, you don't know who I am or how I act
Right on! That helps me more than you could imagine.. I had a peace of concrete fall on my lower half and crippled me three days after getting married! I refuse to just get on welfare and give up but it’s very hard sometimes but watching you finish made me want to keep going! I carve wood and wood burn and burn pictures on leather. I have nerve damage in my whole body and can’t feel my hands most of the time but with my eyes I can see so I’m still doing it. I live off a fixed income so a lot of the carving tools that I used I no longer can use them and can’t afford many power tools for carving but I have one and I’m grateful fir that. I know God will provide me with the tools I need. I will not give up and I will be able to support my four kids and my wife again.. I have a dremel tool and I can do many things with it and slowly I will get more! Watching this today was and had to be from God himself as he was for you... I needed to watch that today so thank you so much and God Bless you and your family! Your faith and courage as well as just showing the world that winning first place isn’t the only thing that makes you a winner! You gave my the will I needed to continue! Thank you so much and you have a great father as do I. I hope that you know that finishing that race the way you did I believe was meant to be and you made and are still making more of a difference than if you crossed that line first! Thank you so much! I’m sure you won’t read this but I hope some way or the other someone will let you know what you did for me and I’m sure I’m not the only one...
Beautiful father and son. Tears are falling.
why would i cry for this act of courage? it should be keep our head high
candyfloss184 because its beautiful to see something like this.
Being human...😀😀
I didn't cry but it was so thoughtful of his dad! ;)
+Ella Barrett Thank you for watching :)
+Ella Barrett thoughtful? Oh man........have you ever competed and fell short of your goal? That was the Olympics!!! Geez........
Not just tearing..actually sobbing. The strength of heart and love and the will to carry on amid pain
He is the real star as he had the strong determination and willingnes to try and complete the race rather than leaving it incomplete
Its about courage and love...mind blowing.
Superb
We love our Father! That is why we have family..... so love our Family! Reply my comment say "I love my Family!
I love my Family!
I love my family
I love u family
i love my family :)
love you family :)
Derek is lucky to hv a father like this, i dont think anyone can watch this video without shedding a tear
This is one of the videos that make me shed tears and pray for a restoration of humanity
