He was so inspirational

I was 8 when he rolled home I'm showing my 4 children what true strength really is. It's timeless a real Canadian hero

This man's journey helped me to take courage and face my disabilities, and find the strength to function, and survive. Thnx for your example, Rick. You truly are The Man in Motion

Cant believe they stripped this song of possibility of oscar because they found out who the song was really written for, how could finding that out not make this song 100x better

❤😂

Still in awe

Spencer van Vloten is no ally towards the disability community ? Why would you have him on this video ? Can not claim to be an ally unless the community says so. Please, stop speaking for use.

Spencer van Vloten has written articles with individuals with a long history ableism and violence towards members of the disability community . Given him a platform is insulting.

The Vancouver Canucks anthem

Rick Hansen is awesome.

I remember the Man in Motion tour. Most people think this song was written for the movie St. Elmo's Fire but it was written for Rick Hansen's Man In Motion tour. Awesome song.

Better yet a good song preparing for WrestleMania

POWER!!!!!

I love this video and I'm live in Bentonville Arkansas

Thank you for being an inspiration, Mr Hansen! 😊

John Parr told us how Rick Hansen actually was the inspiration for this song: “I wrote the lyric when we were working on the movie. David showed me a video of Rick Hansen and I was inspired to write the story of his planned epic journey to circumnavigate the globe in his wheel chair. I wrote the lyric ambiguously, so the film company would think "all I needs these pair of wheels" referred to Demi Moore's jeep when actually I am referring to Rick's wheelchair, or "for once in his life a man has his time" actually refers to when Rick would end his journey wheeling back into Vancouver with a million people lining the streets - not when Emilio Estevez finally kisses Andie Macdowell."

I could see that this man is ironed-will!!!salute from the Philippines!!!👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏♥️♥️♥️

April 8th for Dancing and Singing All Together Celebrating Life Eternal 💖🙃

I am old enough to remember the true courage of this man. He helped give me, a person with disabilities, have courage to survive this harsh world

I had 5 brothers in weelchair..

Powerful..simple powerful

Something about this man is highly attractive. He seems like a great person. Good on him.

Rick and Terry Real heroes.

Good Lord Almighty... Fifty seven years old and I only know this backstory today... (4 March 2024) BRAVO...!!! 🇿🇦

Why it has taken me this long to reconnect with Rick and his storey? Back in the days of The Man in Motion Tour He stopped at our school just east of Regina Saskatchewan . I just remember the fire it kindled that there was smeone that had the inspiration to surpass lifes hurddles and make such a positive desision to move past what seems lifes way to surpress a human ambition and to come out way on top of it all!! Thx Rick for the years of inspiration!

I saw him pass through my town as a kid and will always remember that day

I am nothing compare to him. 🙏

😍

Its a very good song for favorite one.

My dad told that this sing is about Ric Hanson

I don't exist for people with disabilities. I know you would like it that way, but your rights shouldn't infringe on mine.

Good song for Worlds Strongest man

This was a better time

This man stands taller than every oather.

Canadian hero!

An amazing song to an amazing story.

My mind immediately went to my 23 year old daughter when she was diagnosed tithes flHCC and the fight of her life that ensued. At 95 pounds I have never seen anyone more determined to beat a rare cancer. I stayed with her during recovery from 3 major surgeries and one minor one. Only once did I see her shaken. When she first saw the image of that 9cm tumor on her liver. Then it was time to fight.

I was there when he climbed one of the STEEPEST HILLS of his worldwide tour at Thermal Drive in Port Moody, British Columbia, Canada and was there again at his arrival at the final destination of Oakridge Centre in Vancouver. I also remember his speech where he said "Reach for the Stars but if you get to the Moon be happy with it!" --- WHAT AN INSPIRATION RICK IS TO EVERYONE! For EVERYONE taking part in ALL sorts of activities and endeavours! Listen to this John Parr song AND ALSO take inspiration from wheelchair athlete Rick Hansen! Many times, sheer personal and group effort and PERSERVERENCE can get you places where raw talent is simply not enough! And Rick is and should be OUR personal and collective inspiration for EVERY activity we take part in be it Work and Play! Thank you Rick Hansen and Thank You John Parr for melding pure athleticism and pure audio artistry to create and form something BIGGER than any of us could have imagined! V

This video made me cry. I remember this.

Does anybody know how this man is doing today? What an inspiration!

This man inspired the world

My favourite song of all time because of this tour

I saw Rick wheel up a steep hill in Mission, BC, during his tour. It took him about 10 seconds to make up that hill. I also remember seeing him a few times in Williams Lake in the early to mid 70s.

Man in motion, indeed!!

Hi

Rick hansen the true forrest gump. An inspiration for everyone

Rick Hansen is a true hero in Canada. He has done so much to change how we look at differently able people, and so much to raise money for research.

At the bridge where john parr sings "just once in his life a man has his time" and rick looks up at the statue of terry fox is amazing. Just the most inspirational thing i think ive ever seen
