If anybody saw this, comment below. If not, please, go onto BBC iplayer and watch it. I am probably THE most un-emotional guy you will find, but after watching this I was very humbled and upset. Truly amazing and inspirational guy who will be missed by many i am sure. Makes you appreciate what you have. Please do take an hour out of your life to watch this and comment below... It may even change how you see your own life...

Don't have a hour atm

I have an hour. WHile I'm waiting for my slow chinese internet to load up the page, can you tell me what it's about?
__Don_Line__ Jul 23, 2011

Nevermind that. It's not available in my area, being that China's gov probably forced BBC to remove it off of their webspace. No other free copies to watch. But it sounds really inspiring, a guy who has bone cancer. He won't have long to live, so he wants to be happy and do as much stuff as he can before he dies.

Jeez, that looks proper emotional... I'll give it a bash sounds like a great story and an eye opener into how lucky we are... Cheers for the heads up!

It was about a chap that was diagnosed with cancer at 17. It is about how he copes with it and what he does. People that are saying they dont have an hour to take out if their long live's should really watch this, you might then change your thinking on how much time you actually have.

I have a friend, she's only 20 and has had cancer for a while now. Poor girl, she's fighting strong tho :)

What an inspiration to us all, anybody feeling sorry for themselves or with life should watch this

Glad to see some others watched it... If anybody finds a tribute type page for him, let me know. I don't normally do that, but I found the programme so touching I would like his family to know. But yeh, any1 that still hasn't seen it, please do try!!

Watched it again with my mrs earlier, I think it got her a little too upset, 😿😿😿

I'm not able to watch it either but far too often we tend to complain about how rough our lives are... With petty things... We had a house fire in 07 and Lost our son In 08... Working in the hospital ER for a bit has always kept me in perspective to appreciate what we have been given..there are far to many who are so much worse off than I could ever imagine being... You bring happiness into your life yourself... Dont wait for it to find you or give up on it or you may never experience it. I will continue to try to find a way
To view it, thanks :)
