Harry Barker wow watching this makes me feel wired now, but I really do feel sorry for that guy hope he had a decent life. :(

Harry Barker I think he died happy though , it was lived well he finished school went to home coming dance =))) he was surrounded with people he loved and he did what he loved.

Harry Barker having that strength inside of you 1month ahead of death is something i'd dream of...this guy lived his life 100% till the end. Respect

Harry Barker OMG. True. :( May God bless his beautiful soul.

this quote made my day

+Wesley Wu What you just said makes no sense at all. 70 years is longer than 17 years.

Alex Mate, it's a figure of speech. Please finish grade school before you try to sass me.

Wesley Wu Ah, the classic, "You must be 12" insult. Pathetic. Come up with something good.

Alex I would if your comeback was actually a real roast. Besides, you didn't deny it :)

Good tips. Rest in peace.

Let the bad stuff in once in a while, so you can acknowledge it and move past it Learn that being brave isn't always supposed to be easy RIP Sam ♡

Brandon J or you only see it that way because you focus on his disability.

Retro Gaming Firstly, yes. The way he overcomes his disability daily is absolutely inspiring. Unbelivably inspiring. As it should be. And if you can't see that, it's your problem. Because I look at someone with a disability and that disability is apparent to me does not make me a bad person. It makes me realistic. There is nothing noble about ignoring such an obvious handicap. There is something to be said however, for seeing a handicap and then being able to look past it and seeing that how an individual handles their handicap so well and so optimistically absolutely adds to the inspiration, not detracts from it. The fact that I can look at him as an entire individual, as a whole, disability and all, is not a fault. It's part of what makes him who he is. And though it's not the only part, not by a long shot, I would venture to say it's a pretty damn big part. Secondly, he would be inspiring even without the disability. The kid is 17 and speaks with the intelligence and eloquence of someone twice his age or older. His maturity and world view are admirable qualities. So get off your high horse and don't make insinuations about why I would consider him an inspiration, when the truth is you don't have the vaguest notion as to what I find inspiring about this young man. Take your nonsense elsewhere.

Brandon J I was referencing your value to his maturity in relation to his disability, not to how he is inspiring. He is inspiring, and I was inspired by him because of his unbelievable strength and optimistic behavior. But he speaks exactly like many people around my age, 15-18, and I have seen many people younger than him speak that way and people are saying that he's mature when they aren't really looking at his maturity but the fact that he's on Ted talks and has a disability. It just annoyed me because people don't compare his maturity to a general population and instead say he's mature because of a disability. Just scroll down the comment section, many people are saying the exact same thing you originally said when it doesn't matter and it, again, annoyed me.

Retro Gaming That's patently ridiculous. I wasn't tying his maturity to his disability. And nothing I wrote should've led you to that conclusion. If you speak eloquently, then I congratulate you. But if you believe most kids that age speak so verbosely and with such diction, then you're naive. I have younger brothers and younger cousins around the same age and very few of them speak so well. I know relatively few adults that speak English the way it's meant to be spoken.

Brandon J Then I guess we just have different comparatives based on our own experiences with age-similar people.

trollmaster420. shut up i bet if you were like that you be crying

Hey buddy listen. You should thank god that you are normal, and not like Sam. You can't imagine being like him. I know you're trolling but sometimes it's better not to. Because, it's not even funny.

He passed away?

he was 14 when he died.

@@barkley8285 He was 17.

The person who has faced enough in his life gains maturity earlier than most of us do!

@@barkley8285 the idea that he died at 14, but his corpse continued to shamble around and communicate simple ideas for years is horrifying to think on

This is often as....its the effect of the disease progeria ......which led to his early ageing and maturity....impressive word is not applicable here at all.....😐

beautiful man

When i see this, I think how could a god allow this?

@Lasse Givoni ahhhh 😳the disease.😳

@Lasse Givoni ok he had happy days too...ok Why would a god allow a child to have such a terrible disease for even 1 day, but a lifetime of 17yrs??

@Lasse Givoni i know. If there was a true kind loving god. It would never allow this disease. The reason this disease is real, is because god is not real. Its cruel nature that does this, just like other cruelty of nature.

The Batman Amazing quote.

thats the thing though. economicly and socialy he was in the best situation, id honestly tkae his life ove most american childrens life . its an example of how much money cna help a person. he has money to thank for his healthy and happy life

+ConservativeElite that's so edgy and funny like 9/11 hahahaha just kidding, grow up / go fuck your self

who cares what anyone says about sam? the only thing you should care about is the philosophy he left us, so use it! block it out! people just say shit cuase there upset with them selfs on how much they over look the things they have in life. #liveahappylife

Of course he was a great guy, but that doesn't mean that he didn't look weird. You don't have to look acceptable to society to be a good person.

i strongly agree. We are all one.

for the bullies: n u have a bully demon inhabiting u... apparently... u might wanna 'get yerself well...' stop allowing bully demons to occupy u... in indulging in such toxic, energetically parasitical behavior, u r making the world a sicker place... n as well have the potential to cause harm to others who do not deserve your insanity... so... may u get yerself well, n stop allowing bully demons to inhabit u, n in so doing u will then b making the world a better place... u might wanna get in touch with who u truly r in yer creator's eyes... the amazingly inspiring young person, wise beyond his time; sam berns certainly seemed in tune with his truth n his calling. what an exceptional, magnificent bright light n kind soul. if only more people were so great as he lived. apparently he lived well. he also seemed to have a wonderful support system... and he made quality choice as he stated. perhaps u have not had such a quality support system as sam has had the fortune of having. however, u likely also r not facing at least a number of challenges which same faced... so... but whatever your problems r, how u ended up becoming so sick... spiritually ill, n psychologically injured... that u feel it is ok, n funny to b abusive to people who do not deserve your bullying... i hope u get to the bottom of yer issues so u can work on yerself n get real. ps: u keep bullying u r going to b accruing monumental karmic debt fer yerself... but 'don't think twice... it's alright...' i m guessing u r a lost teenager... so i m going easy on u. may u get a clue n grow up.

Spot on. His message was so rich that I almost overlooked how well he delivered it.

he has a nice voice.

@@magpineapple i actually found him so cute.. RIP

He may not had the appearance but he surely had talend of public speaking! There are handsome guys who cant even make a school like presentation...

I think loving with anyone staring at u, ans being the center of every situation either makes u socially sick or socially skilled

Amen. Be grateful for his shining light. It sure blessed me today.

Hello Sandra , how are you doing, I hope you're doing good? Am Tom from Denver Colorado, Where are you from?

Ohh no!! I have never seen him before. What an amazing human being. So sad to hear he passed away.

Let me give you a hug, we all deserve it from time to time.

@Janis Joplin Having lost two brothers-in-law to Covid-19, I know the danger is real. I have found it useful in life to be able to learn from others' mistakes; saves having to catch everything myself.

I feel a seepage in my faith at moments like this. They say the good die young, but he was afflicted right from the start. I do not question God, but the word why still rattles around within me. This young man had wisdom beyond his years, maybe that was his purpose. Like you, I pray he is at peace.

I don't believe in wibbly ethereal/divine Magic souls but people like this and occasions like this make me wish there were souls/proof of souls. There's no proof either way. But times like these? A soul would be something comforting to believe in.

@@ToeMunchEnja I believe I know how you feel. I too wrestle with certain possibilities and being a practical man coming to terms with my own experiences proved very difficult. I can't nor would I try to convince you because you have to have your own experience. Word alone is not enough, even if you did experience something you might think you're in need of medication. I am not talking psychics or spiritual meetings, I can only tell you of my parent's experiences. My father died in 1973 but six weeks before he told my mother his sister Amy came to him. she sat down on the bed just before father left the bedroom and told him it was time for him to prepare for his passing. She made two visits. After my father passed away it was mid-1984 whilst my mother was watching television when she saw my father sat opposite her. she thought she was losing her mind and left the room. She returned with a cup of tea but father was still there. This continued for the next eighteen months every two months or so, my mother passed away in 1986. My sister received visitations from our mother apparently to let her know she was alright, I never received any such visits. I cannot prove or disprove these claims, but when I was stationed in Germany I was on duty on my own when I had a number of experiences that were beyond explanation. However, I ventured to mention to fellow troop members what had happened and was told, "why do you think duty was taken in the guardroom". I have no explanation as to what happened, but suffice it say, it was not pleasant. This probably proves nothing to you as it's just my word, but I know what I saw and I would not try to convince you one way or the other. Justin.

he is changing the world even after his death, RIP Sam

bruh that is peace

once my eggs swelled up and I had them as his head

Why is it that those who experience deviations, pain, suffering, and all bad things in this world can be so wise? It's because they know how to appreciate life, appreciate the world, appreciate everyone, appreciate everything. He went through so much but seems as if he had never despised anything at all. He truly is such a wise kid (I'm younger tho). At least it's satisfying enough for me to see that he spent his final days and months happy and well. He even got to enjoy how it feels to graduate from highschool, how's that for something.

what kind of ugly ass people have you been listening to all your life then?

Ice Carpenter I'm talking about his philosophy, not his aesthetic appearance. You see, I judge a person's "beauty" off of what's inside. I know that sounds super gay, but I feel the whole world would be way better off thinking this way.

The Stig i know what you mean but still i had to make a joke. I didn't listen to his talk, because its just ordinary typical self help ''accept yourself and think positivelly'', nothing that hasn't been told thousands of years ago. And I'm sorry but i don't find him beautiful, i wouldn't have found him beautifull if he was ordinary person without a disability either. Just my opinion, no hate.

Ice Carpenter Hey, no problem mate! Opinions are good, they provide diversity. And yeah, that is a good point. Guess it just struck me a different way coming from him. Cheers, and happy holidays!

It doesn't sound super gay at all. It makes perfect sense. This was an extremely brave and mature being inside that body and you are giving ultimate respect to that. Whatever is beautiful to you is your right and your peace. There will always be ignorant and cowardly fools like Ice Carpenter to try and bum people out because they are so bummed on life themselves. Don't let his negativity bully or change your way of thinking. Keep up the positivity Stig. You will feel better and so will everyone around you. (except for people like Ice Carpenter.)
