00:00In this video, we're going to help 2,000 people walk again.
00:05The video you are about to watch is unlike anything
00:08we've ever done.
00:09Walking is something most of us take for granted every day.
00:13But for millions of amputees all around the world,
00:15they don't have that same luxury.
00:18But in this video, for 2,000 people,
00:21that is about to change.
00:22I had an accident back in 2020, and I shattered both my ankles.
00:26When he first got sick, they didn't even
00:29think he would live another year.
00:31I was in a car wreck when I was 17.
00:32That's how I lost my feet.
00:34And to kick things off, we're going to help Stephanie.
00:37Hi.
00:38How's it going?
00:39Good.
00:39We're so excited you're here.
00:41I'm so nervous.
00:42How long has it been since you've
00:43been able to walk on your own?
00:45I have not walked on my own since 2009.
00:48Almost 15 years since you've been able to walk on your own.
00:51Yeah.
00:51Wow.
00:52Well, we might have something that can change that.
00:54This is your brand new leg.
00:56Here you go.
00:58What do you think of it?
00:59Oh my gosh, I love her.
01:00You ready to try it on?
01:01I am.
01:02OK, let's slide it on in.
01:04OK, what do you think?
01:06It feels wonderful.
01:07All right, you ready to stand up?
01:09Wow.
01:14For the first time in 15 years, Stephanie is actually walking.
01:19Oh, it's wonderful.
01:21That's my dad.
01:22Aw.
01:27Does it warm your heart to be able to see her move around
01:29again?
01:29Yes, very much so.
01:32I'm just glad that she's going to be
01:34able to get to do something she wants to,
01:37not be a prisoner anymore.
01:38You guys can look each other in the eyes now.
01:40We can dance.
01:43And that's exactly what they did.
01:48It felt so good to be able to help Stephanie and her family.
01:51So we did the same thing for Colleen.
01:53It's been seven months since you were able to walk.
01:56I'm ready.
01:57Let's do it.
01:59It's amazing to have another chance.
02:01And we helped David, Adrian, Linda, and Carrie.
02:05But to be honest, we could not have pulled this off
02:08without the help of some incredible people.
02:10We replaced limbs that people have lost.
02:13What's a typical cost for someone
02:14to get a prosthesis like this?
02:16Anywhere from $5,000 to $50,000.
02:19And it sounds crazy, but most of the people
02:21in this video either cannot afford insurance
02:23or did not have adequate coverage.
02:25Meaning if we didn't step in, they
02:27might not have ever walked again.
02:29And if insurance doesn't cover that, what do you do?
02:31You hope and fundraise and pray that someone like you
02:34comes along.
02:35This would take me about 10 years.
02:37Wait, to buy this on your own would have taken 10 years?
02:40Yes.
02:40That's Chandler.
02:43Obviously, that's not OK.
02:45So we're going to send you home with $10,000.
02:47No.
02:51This is a day in my life I would never forget.
02:55No problem.
02:56You came in with one leg, and now you're
02:58leaving with two and a briefcase full of money.
03:01Best day of my life.
03:02Oh, man, it feels awesome.
03:04It feels so real, like it's part of me.
03:07You can walk again, and you don't
03:08have the financial burden.
03:10This is life changing.
03:11Here I am now, very thankful.
03:13As we learn through this process,
03:14when you lose your ability to walk,
03:16you also lose the ability to do life's most basic tasks,
03:20something that Greg knows all too well.
03:22Everything's twice as hard as it used to be.
03:24I played tennis all the time with the family,
03:27but I'd be happy just being able to stand up and do the dishes.
03:30OK, let's see how your new leg fits.
03:32All right, he's getting right into it.
03:34It's a good feeling to stand up.
03:36All right.
03:37Whoa, how's it feel?
03:40I'll tell you what, it makes you smile.
03:42When you're an amputee, everyday activities
03:45can feel like insurmountable tasks.
03:47But for Travis, there's a special occasion
03:50coming up that he just can't do sitting down.
03:53My daughter's been planning a wedding
03:55since she was three, four years old.
03:58I've always dreamed of having my dad walk me down the aisle.
04:03Do you mind telling us a little bit about yourself?
04:06Yeah, I used to run six, seven days a week if I was bored.
04:10And I was in a car wreck when I was 17, had osteomyelitis,
04:14and that's how I lost my feet.
04:16How long has it been since you were able to walk normally?
04:21I don't know what normal is anymore.
04:24Are you guys excited to see him walk again?
04:26Yeah, super excited.
04:27Here's your right leg, here you go.
04:29And here's the left leg.
04:32This is awesome.
04:34You got this.
04:35First step, you want to go for it?
04:41Wow, he's walking better than some
04:43of the people with one leg.
04:45But you're making this look easy.
04:46I'm just ready to start running.
04:48What's it like to see him walking?
04:49It's awesome.
04:51I'm excited.
04:52No hands?
04:54No hands?
04:56Now you can walk her down the aisle.
04:57Yeah.
04:58Wow.
04:59Have a father-daughter dance.
05:01I know this wedding is important to all of you,
05:04which is why I asked your soon-to-be husband how
05:06much the wedding would cost.
05:07And on this wheelchair is the exact amount.
05:11We're going to cover the entire cost of your wedding.
05:14And now your dad can join you down the aisle.
05:19Thank you for not telling her.
05:20I really appreciate it.
05:21Thank you so much.
05:22Real question though is, are we invited?
05:24Yeah.
05:25Got to bring some feastables.
05:26Oh, deal.
05:27And he wasn't kidding.
05:28Later in this video, we actually do
05:30go to Travis's daughter's wedding.
05:31And while we're paying for all the prosthetics in this video,
05:34that won't always be the case.
05:36And while $5,000 to $50,000 is already
05:38too expensive for most people, that price tag
05:41is felt even heavier in developing countries.
05:43Which is what brought me to Guatemala
05:45to meet David, who founded the Range of Motion Project
05:48to address the lack of prosthetics
05:50for the underprivileged.
05:51One of the ways that prosthetic care gets delivered to the poor
05:54is poor technology.
05:56So what makes it so expensive?
05:58Very expensive pieces of technology.
06:00And David found a simple way to maintain quality
06:03at only one-tenth the cost.
06:04Everything that you see here is part
06:06of our global inventory of recycled components.
06:09So everything in this room is recycled
06:11from some other prosthetic.
06:12A lot of it is still functional.
06:14So if you have a prosthetic that you want to donate so he can
06:17use it to help more people, just go to this website right here.
06:19That's how he's able to make it so cheap
06:21so he can help the poorest of the poor all around the world.
06:24And for us, that means we can help even more people
06:26get back to their full lives here in Guatemala.
06:29From everything as adventurous as riding motorcycles.
06:34You're making this look easy.
06:35Playing soccer.
06:36Yeah!
06:37Whoa!
06:38Down to the smallest pleasures of life.
06:40You guys are adorable.
06:41Oh!
06:50You're taller than your mom.
06:51Like hugging your family.
06:53How's it going, everybody?
06:54Let's take our first step together.
06:56Or watching a child reclaim their independence.
07:00At any stage of life, a new limb can mean everything.
07:04And by the end of the day, we had helped so many people.
07:06But our mission was just getting started.
07:09And you were saying some people can't even
07:10make it to the facility.
07:12It's just a mountainous, tough country to travel in.
07:15Rivers that people have to cross,
07:16jungles that people have to get through.
07:18Not being able to walk is really kind of trapping patients
07:22in their homes.
07:22Which is why David sometimes has to leave the clinic
07:25and visit the patients in their own home, which
07:27comes with its own difficulties.
07:29Where's your truck at?
07:31I thought we were taking your guys' cars.
07:34No, no.
07:34We don't have a truck.
07:36You don't have a truck to go reach
07:37these people in remote places?
07:39No.
07:39With the bulk of ROMP's resources
07:41going into staffing and the prosthetics themselves,
07:43they can't afford reliable transportation
07:46to get to hard-to-reach patients.
07:47That is, until now.
07:49I could have sworn that was your truck.
07:52If it's not, why does it say ROMP on the side?
07:56We worked with the staff.
07:57None of them told them.
07:59This brand new $65,000 truck is fully
08:02equipped to traverse even the most difficult terrain.
08:05Thank you, guys.
08:05Congrats, man.
08:06Let's go break it in by giving away some legs.
08:08All right.
08:09And the further away we got from the bustling streets
08:11of Guatemala City, I realized David
08:13wasn't kidding when he said these places were
08:16hard to get to, as we headed to a home located
08:19on the side of a literal volcano in the middle of the jungle.
08:23I now understand why this truck was so valuable.
08:26Oh my god.
08:26Whoa.
08:27Yeah, I could not imagine driving
08:28a normal car down this road.
08:31We finally made it here.
08:32And our journey up the volcano brought us here
08:35to meet Kevin, who was left severely burned
08:37and without either of his legs in an accident 24 years ago.
08:41You're living on the side of a volcano.
08:43How do you get around?
08:44This is very difficult terrain.
08:45See?
08:46It's ugly.
08:47It's too rough for him, so someone actually
08:49does need to push him in a wheelchair.
08:51And that ends today.
08:52Let's go.
08:55You're about to take your first step.
08:58All right, now we're walking down the side of the volcano.
09:02Come on over here, bub.
09:04Aw.
09:16That made Kevin the 71st person we've helped walk again.
09:20And David and I took that momentum with us
09:22to help even more people.
09:24Like Kelly, who spent six days busing from Bolivia to here,
09:28not even knowing if she would get a prosthetic.
09:36This is why we're doing this video right here.
09:40All right, it's been two years since you walked.
09:43It's a big moment.
09:45You want to take your first step?
09:55Kelly was so happy to be walking again
09:57that she then asked this.
10:02You want me to dance?
10:04Oh, boy.
10:05I don't know what I'm doing.
10:06You wouldn't even believe, this is her first time
10:08walking in two years.
10:10She's already dancing.
10:11What?
10:12And even though I clearly don't know how to dance,
10:15watching this family be reunited with such an important part
10:18of their past meant that they were
10:20able to take a step forward.
10:22And as for Eduardo, he had a really touching reaction
10:25to getting his new leg.
10:27Oh, he kissed it.
10:28That was adorable.
10:29He hasn't walked in months, which is obviously a shame
10:31because he's only five years old.
10:33It's a big moment.
10:34Whenever you're ready, Eduardo.
10:37The mom was saying that he would have to drag himself around
10:39and was even embarrassed of not having the leg.
10:41So to see him moving like this is wonderful.
10:44There you go.
10:45All right, you want to throw it on?
10:48What's it like to walk again?
10:49I mean, look at this.
10:50She hasn't walked in over a year.
10:52This is honestly my favorite video.
10:53This is crazy.
10:55Hola.
10:56How's it going?
11:00Meeting Fede is cool and all, but the real reason we're here
11:03is your brand new prosthetic.
11:05This is all yours, 100% free.
11:12¿Qué se siente?
11:13¿Qué se siente?
11:14¿Qué se siente?
11:15¿Qué se siente?
11:16¿Qué se siente?
11:17¿Qué se siente?
11:19¿Qué se siente caminar de vuelta?
11:21Una felicidad enorme.
11:23And to further inspire strength in the 50 amputees
11:26we helped here in Ecuador, David shared with us
11:28one of his favorite rituals.
11:30We love to take them hiking on that mountain.
11:33And now we're going to climb this mountain
11:35to break in their new prosthetics.
11:37If they can climb this mountain, they
11:39can get through daily life.
11:40I can see the symbolism of this task.
11:42Let the journey begin.
11:44All right.
11:46This is actually pretty hard.
11:47This guy went from not walking to literally hiking up
11:50a mountain.
11:50I mean, it's truly amazing.
11:52You really like to challenge these patients.
11:54If you can reach a new height, reach a new summit
11:57with a disability, you might feel that anything else
12:00is possible.
12:01And I saw just that.
12:02The amount of persistence and ambition
12:04that these amputees showcased was unlike anything
12:07I had seen before.
12:08This is what this trip is all about,
12:09is refusing to give up.
12:10I'll be honest, I didn't fully understand
12:12why we were climbing this mountain.
12:14But now I get it.
12:15It's to show them that if they can climb this mountain,
12:17they can essentially overcome anything
12:19with their brand new prosthetics.
12:21We made it to the top!
12:22Yeah!
12:23Woo!
12:26Good job.
12:28If you guys can hike this mountain, you can do anything.
12:30I'm proud of you.
12:31Proud of you guys.
12:33And our reward now is this beautiful view.
12:36Now we're going to head all the way over to Kenya, where
12:39we found a bunch of kids who still have their legs,
12:41but needed expensive surgeries to be able to use them,
12:44which, of course, we paid for.
12:46Look at that.
12:47Before the surgery, some of these kids
12:48have never walked their entire life.
12:50And now look at them.
12:51When I tried to walk, I can't find myself down,
12:54not knowing where I fell down.
12:56I was being laughed by my fellow students.
13:02So sometimes I could not go to school.
13:05How did that feel, taking your first steps?
13:07If I can walk like the other people,
13:09so this makes me so happy.
13:11And along with providing these life-changing surgeries,
13:14we also provided a brand new playroom at this clinic
13:17for the kids to enjoy.
13:18Come check out the new playroom.
13:23And at this point, I'm going to pick up the pace a little bit,
13:25because after Kenya, we went all over Africa
13:27helping people walk again.
13:29My family, my financial status, and everything I know
13:33is going to change.
13:34And from there, we went to the Philippines,
13:36Cambodia, and Sri Lanka.
13:38Thank you so much for helping us.
13:40Thank you, thank you.
13:41Thank you very much.
13:42It's like a second chance for me.
13:44I feel alive again.
13:47And after visiting countries all around the world
13:49and witnessing 2,000 first steps,
13:52I'm glad to say we could help change
13:54the lives of so many people all across the world.
13:56But as you'll remember from earlier in this video,
13:59we still have a wedding we need to attend.
14:01Which is weirder.
14:01In fact, we're at a wedding of people we met 24 hours ago.
14:04Or Nolan's shirt.
14:05Oh, Nolan's shirt, 100%.
14:07What is this little rope?
14:09All right, Travis is about to walk his daughter
14:11down the aisle.
14:12Let's see if his brand new legs work.
14:14It's a big moment.
14:15I've always dreamed of having my dad walk me down the aisle.
14:28I'm about to cry, dude.
14:34This is awesome.
14:35Now I'm happy to give you all Mr. And Mrs. Anderson.
14:40Watching Travis walk his daughter down the aisle
14:42made me reflect on all the people's lives
14:45who were impacted throughout this video.
14:47I was able to walk her down the aisle.
14:49It was just amazing.
14:50Thank you guys so much.
14:53Hey, guys.
14:54I wanted to end this video a little differently than normal.
14:56And I wanted to say that the fact
14:58that some of these people had insurance and were denied,
14:59some of these people had insurance
15:01but didn't have the right coverage,
15:02it just doesn't sit right with me.
15:04Their only hope right now of getting a prosthetic leg
15:06so they can walk again, so they can go get a job,
15:09is for a YouTuber to step in and help them,
15:11which is absurd.
15:13I don't know what the answer is,
15:15but I wanted to say this so the 100 million people
15:17watching this can get inspired
15:18because what I saw when filming this video
15:21is just obviously not okay.
15:22So anyways, thanks for watching.
