This is just the best motivational speech I have ever heard. I’ve never been on a sports team (“I don’t believe it”), but if I were ever on any type of sports team this is the speech I would want to hear before all the games. And the speech I would want to hear after I lost all the games. “You will get the hang of it, I know it!” I believe that I will! If I just keep practicing! Let’s all go out and learn how to ride our bikes and also learn how to use our U-locks!! (Via BestRoofTalkEver.)

  1. I definitely didn’t cry at that, nope, no sir, not me.

  2. I don’t believe in myself and I still know how to ride a bike. YA BURNT, KID!

  3. Well, I have the title for my first album. Thank you, adorable and awesome child!

  4. This kid could do an IMPECCABLE Short Round impression

  5. Kids. Is there anything they can’t do?

  6. Clear eyes, full hearts, thumbs up, can’t lose.

  7. My son is still too young for anything like this, but when he learned how to play with a ball, it was pretty much the best thing ever. I would roll it too him, and then he would roll it back to me and then crawl over as fast as he could and hug me. Kids are the best.

    • When my dog learned how to play with a ball, it was pretty much the best thing ever. I would throw it as hard as I could, and then he would sprint fifty yards to retrieve it and then sprint another fifty yards to drop it gratefully by my feet. Dogs are the best.

      p.s. I never have to change his diaper and he won’t tell me he hates me when he’s thirteen.

      • My dog tells me he hates me all the time:

        “No! you can’t eat plastic wrap! I don’t care if it was covering something delicious!”

        “I fucking HATE YOU! You’re not even my real dad! When I’m twelve I’m out of here!*”

        *because the average life expectancy for dogs is 10-12 years. #funnyjokes

      • Do I really need to repeat the story about the time I was tricked into buying my dog a handjob? Kids > dogs, no contest.

  8. Bjork just gets weirder and weirder with each passing year.

  9. Wait, where is the earthquake going to hit?!?!?

  10. Here’s how you should really learn how to ride a bike: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaqxIXs_mn4

  11. I think he’s ready to move on to stick-horse

  12. Goddamn, this fuckin’ kid gets you JACKED UP!!!

  13. This kid felt like he had the world all figured out, until the sad day that someone told him about pennyfarthings.

  14. I cried because I’m 31 and only learned how to ride a bike two years ago and am still shaky. Thanks, kid! I *will* believe in myself!

  15. “Fuck you, that’s me name! Bikes are for CLOSERS!”

  16. Can I formally request that “Thumbs up, everybody. For rock ‘n roll!” be my epitaph?
    I can?
    Awesome.

  17. I was on a sports team, and our speeches were never like this. We had a girl on it named Ashley Hall though, so we just put our hands together and shouted “A-HALL!” over and over. I wish sports were more like this kid.

  18. My favorite video this month, no joke. I’ve watched it six times now.

  19. This kid is going to get so much action later

  20. Although this kid’s speech is indeed great and his triumphs and accolades well-deserved, I am still a firm believer that the best motivational action is to walk into a room without saying a word, putting marker to dry erase board and scribbling the word ‘State’ across it.

  21. i am 27, and i do not know how to ride a bike. this video may or may not change my life. ill let u know by the end of summer.

  24. I should probably go to the hospital pretty soon. I think my heart just melted a little bit

  25. I haven’t felt that psyched about anything in a long time. Except sex. So my first statement still stands.
