Watch this short ad and tell me why this kid is my hero. Why did I share this video and not one with a super fit, skinny person? Tell me any other thoughts you have from this video. Watch and be inspired!

I think he is your hero because he is a normal person exercising. He is not some super skinny and fit person, but he is making the effort to start getting fit which I think it's even harder to start exercising when you're out of shape because it takes more motivation. He says that we all are capable of greatness and not just certain people. I think you shared this video because you want us to think about how we can achieve what we want to achieve or "greatness" as long as we motivate ourselves to because we all can, it's just a matter of doing it.
ReplyDeleteThis kid is a hero because he is being an example of a kid that is trying to lose weight and fighting for what he wants and needs. You shared this video with this kid because he can inspire more people then a skinny fit person. I thought the find the greatness part was really creative because everyone can find there greatness and achieve it. The kid is trying to achieve his weight.
ReplyDeleteHe is a hero because he shows that everyone can exercise. He is working towards a goal and he will achieve it. He isn't sitting around playing video games but he has taken odds that he may not be able to control and fixing them. You showed us this video with him because a skinny fit person can be intimidation. You might think you will never look like that or that you are too big to exercise and make a difference.
ReplyDeleteThis kid is a hero because he is being great. He has a set goal and is making it happen. I think you didn't share a supper skinny person because in society skinnier or more fit people are accepted and are "great". But over weight people because of their weight are limited on what they can do so its more inspiring for a person to get there life back and becoming great for themselves.
ReplyDeleteThis kid is a hero because he is trying to be great. He realizes that greatness is reserved for a selected few but that everyone is capable of being great. I think this video chose to use a heavier kid because most people think of skinny people of being great. This video is inspiring because it shows you that no matter who you are, and what your look like, you can be great. You just have to figure out how.
ReplyDeleteI think you chose this kid as your hero, because even though he is a bigger kid, he is striving to try and be the greatest person he can be and that is all that should matter. Greatness isn't based on whether you weigh 110 or 210. All that matters is what is on the inside and how YOU view yourself, not how others view you.
ReplyDeleteI think this kid is your hero because even if he is slightly bigger than what we would say an average person is, he is doing something that he desired to do and is trying to be his own definition of great, not someone elses. I think you shared this video because every commercial is of some super skinny person with a six back and physcially fit. This guy could way 10x more and he is doing the exact same thing.
ReplyDeleteI think this kid is your hero because he is showing you no matter how big you are, you can do it. Even though he isn't a small tiny athletic kid, he is pushing himself to run and exercise. I think it is interesting that Nike chose this kid to do this commercial and now some physically fit, man with a six pack like they usually do. Everyone has there own level of greatness even if you 300 pounds.
ReplyDeleteThis kid is your hero because he is not going to let people tell him no. He is going to do what he wants and work hard for it. You shared this video because it doesn't matter what you may look like or what your background is, you can still achieve greatness. Greatness is what you make out of it not what other people make of it.
ReplyDeleteYeah any skinny person can jog and exercise, but this is showing that people with any kind of body type can. Just because he is bigger does not mean he isn't great. He is just on his way to becoming great.
ReplyDeleteI think that this kid is your hero because he is not the most skinniest person but he is normal and he is exercising. Even thought it might not be easy for him but he still is and that shows that he has faith in himself and wants to accomplish things, ant that show commitment.
ReplyDeleteI remember seeing this commercial on TV. This kid is very inspiring to other kids and adults who have a harder time working out. This would take a lot of guts to workout like this kid is because others could make fun of him. He is a hero because he isn't afraid of what others think.
ReplyDeletei think this kid is very inspiring to many people because he is not the skinnies person, but he is still working out. This is a good example for kids because it shows that even if you aren't perfect, you can still try and do your best.
ReplyDeleteIt's very true, we are all capable of that which we put our mind to. It's simply that we have been told that we are incapable of this by media, which has a way of separating superstars from the masses. That kid is your hero, because he's trying.
