I learned about this because of Janis Krum's blog. He was the guy who took the photo of today's plane crash and posted it to Twitter. His blog is here: http://www.janiskrums.com/ -- want some inspiration? Think things are hopeless? Watch that video and see if don't find some inspiration. Thanks TIm Ferriss and Janis! - Robert Scoble

The paths we find things through are pretty weird. I know Tim personally but haven't had time to get to my RSS feeds lately. But, they come to me anyway. One of the lessons I've learned in my "media snacking" journey. - Robert Scoble

That confirms it. I SUCK! - Ron's Home And Hardware

I got to Janis' blog from his Twitter account. His photo today made me wonder who he was. - Robert Scoble

Really cool video. Even cooler back story as to how you found it! I'm starting to get this FF thing! - Troy Malone

✩ ✩ ✩ ✩ ✩ This is precisely what I'm talking about, Robert. Thank you. - michael silverton

Terry: because of Twitter our fame allotment has been extended to 19 minutes. Didn't you get the memo? - Robert Scoble

This was meant for me today. right now . next week. next year...next lifetime...thanks - bcultral

I don't know if traditional market models can ever catch up to these phenomena. http://friendfeed.com/e... - michael silverton

Robert - this is the first time you have made me cry - great find, thanks for sharing it. - Ben Shoemate

Great find Robert, Nick speaks at our church all the time and all over the world, he hangs out after he speaks and he greets every single person who waits in line and gives everyone a hug. Here is Nick's site http://www.lifewithoutlimbs.org/ - Kelly Johns

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... There's a video floating around of his whole presentation and it's pretty awesome. - Paul Reynolds

Wow. Thanks Robert. - Nicola Quinn

Amazing! - Amit Morson

I'm just grateful all survived so CNN breaking states! PTL! - Melanie Reed

Still crying after watching this video and so angry at my self-absorbed life complaints. Today, right this very moment, this video has changed the way I view life. - Janet

Very inspirational. The guy has done amazing things, and I definitely get the message - right up until he starts in with the evangelism. Is it just possible he could have achieved the same things on his own - or with a support system that didn't carry the Jesus branding? - MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF

Hi Mary, a heavy duty topic worthy of it's own thread, IMO http://is.gd/g3Ik - michael silverton

Mary, I don't think it is a matter of Jesus "branding", it is his testimony, it is a genuine explanation of how he's been able to overcome his circumstances. I don't think Nick would be the man he is today if he would have "done it on his own" - Kelly Johns

Moving, thanks! - Alexandros Georgiadis

Tears in my coffee cup. Good way to start a day of opportunities for those with more. To whom much is given, much is expected. Thanks for sharing...awesome. - Carl

Kelly, I suspect you're right. Especially since he's a preacher's kid. And I really do get that it can take a huge spiritual foundation to overcome big obstacles. But just once I'd like to see an inspirational story that doesn't turn out to be a lead-in to a Christianity message. Are we - as a culture - as Americans under the First Amendment - saying that nobody can overcome great obstacles who is not a Christian? - MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF

Let's see some examples of great inspiration from the secular world - or the other religious and spiritual traditions. For instance - Stephen Hawking has lived decades longer than anyone with ALS normally would. - MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF

Mary, Please rewatch this video, no where was this pushing a Christian message. I heard God, witnessing God. I believe this was more a faith in God, which is not exclusive to Christians. :) - Janet
