Never, Ever Give Up. Arthur's Inspirational Transformation!

If this story can inspire someone you know, please share it with them!

Arthur Boorman was a disabled veteran of the Gulf War for 15 years, and was told by his doctors that he would never be able to walk on his own, ever again.

He stumbled upon an article about Diamond Dallas Page doing Yoga and decided to give it a try -- he couldn't do traditional, higher impact exercise, so he tried DDP YOGA and sent an email to Dallas telling him his story.

Dallas was so moved by his story, he began emailing and speaking on the phone with Arthur throughout his journey - he encouraged Arthur to keep going and to believe that anything was possible. Even though doctors told him walking would never happen, Arthur was persistent. He fell many times, but kept going.

Arthur was getting stronger rapidly, and he was losing weight at an incredible rate! Because of DDP's specialized workout, he gained tremendous balance and flexibility -- which gave him hope that maybe someday, he'd be able to walk again.

His story is proof, that we cannot place limits on what we are capable of doing, because we often do not know our own potential. Niether Arthur, nor Dallas knew what he would go on to accomplish, but this video speaks for itself. In less than a year, Arthur completely transformed his life. If only he had known what he was capable of, 15 years earlier.

Do not waste any time thinking you are stuck - you can take control over your life, and change it faster than you might think.

Hopefully this story can inspire you to follow your dreams - whatever they may be.
Anything is Possible!

"Just because I cant do it today doesnt mean Im not gonna be able to do it someday."

A word of inspiration to anyone struggling. Keep on fighting!

Doctors: you won't ever walk again
My man: *you said nothing about running tho*

[wildcat]

I cried when he started running. This shows that where there’s a will, there’s a way. Absolutely amazing.

Am a Canadian disabled Vet Arthur’s story inspired me. I was 376 pounds walking with a cane hooked on pills and now a solid 195. No, no pills thank you Arthur you saved my life.

Hi Arthur, I'm a primary school PE teacher and about 40 minutes ago I showed my students your inspirational story. Normally they talk when a video finishes, but not this time. You could hear a pin drop - they were moved. So moved in fact, there were tears. You have inspired 22 young minds to dig deep when the going gets tough. Thank you.

I'm not sure what's more impressive, being able to walk normally again or losing 140 in 10 months

[alicew]

This is something that should appear on the YouTube recommended list

[clintwilkenson]

Got goosebumps when he broke out into a sprint. Just amazing.

[ruchirrawat]

losing weight is hard in itself. Proving the doctors wrong is legendary

"Just because I can't do it today, doesn't mean I can't do it one day" what an inspirational quote!!

[greyfox]

Arthur, I saw this video a few years ago during a pretty dark period in my life. Your story changed my life man. The next day I started getting it together, put the booze anway and got back in shape. 4 years later I am a 3XIRONMAN triathlon finisher!! I inspired my sister who struggled with her weight and health her whole life and today she is down 62lbs. Your story is way bigger than you now brother! You changed lives. Thanks.

[Netslayer]

Losing 140 pounds is impressive, but being able to WALK again is even more impressive. Thank you for sharing your story :)

[amit_patel]

I wanna see him run past the doctors that told him he'd never walk again

[bertalankovacs]

4800 downvotes on a video of a guy getting his health, and life together with hard work and dedication. Damn, we live in a bitter world.
