I love how THE BENGALS HEAD COACH agreed to cancel the game. And he went to the hospital. That’s some class and some heart right there. Good job Zac Taylor ❤
@@AmazedBunionDoes not change the fact that he almost died
@@AmazedBunionIt’s called football, it wasn’t made for weak men like yourself. Hockey players get in fights, does that mean they should die? GFY
When this happened, I honestly think that everyone forgot about the game and just prayed for Damar Hamlin. The game didn't matter anymore. A young man's life is what mattered to everyone. I am just so glad that the medical crew took such swift action and kept his heart beating. I am thankful that he lived and I am also thankful that he is able to lead his normal life.
@@jurassiicearth it’s not that serious it’s not like he is killing people it’s just football your over exaggerating it. He still almost lost his life.
@@jurassiicearthhe had a heart attack though. Let’s just be happy that’s he’s ok.
The medical team was absolutely flawless. They were wicked fast and those few seconds paid off and they were able to save Damar Hamlin!
God saved Damar Hamlin

@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ ❤ The verse of the day! Thanks for sharing brother!
Med team LET HIM ON THE FIELD..MED TEAM HAD THE POWER TO KEEP HIM OFF THE FIELD MED TEAM..WAS CAUGHT SITTING ON THIER ASS.....PEOPLE CAN AND DID GET HURT KEEP ME FAR AWAY FROM THAT "MED TEAM"
I knew this before he was treated. All over hyped.
"You won, you won the game of life" - this hits my heart so hard.
I’m sorry this is kinda convenient because what happened is he got hit in the heart in a certain spot at a certain time Called commotio cordis 90% of people who get it die
@planeedits4686 Actually, you are right. The good thing was that the valves of his heart were 2orking, which means he could get oxygenated blood, going through his aorta vein, so if the valves didn't work blood wouldn't be able to pump and it will kill him.
I had never heard of Damar. Didn’t follow the Bills, but when this happened I was heartbroken for the family and friends. Watched for daily updates. So glad when he was well enough to go home. He is such a caring man. When I watched this video, I cried. Best wishes and God bless.
You use the words:"God bless". I wish that people would acknowledge God even more than what they do.
Long story short:I came across footage, of a Man who had a Heart Attack, and died... right in a Church! However, there was a Medical Team in that Church, that did CPR and all, and God worked and moved, and raised him from the dead! The Pastor, a Brother E. Dewey Smith, said this:"The Medical Team can work on him...but only God can give Breath"! He was, of course, referring to the Breath of Life. Only God can give THAT!
The Man recovered, and apparently went on to live his life.
He's a great actor. Really fooled Alot of people. Youblustvof missed him falling on his but before he hit the ground.
@@silvercontained Curious about what you are referring to... 🤔
@@ronaldshank7589that would be so annoying as the medical team lmao, they’re the ones who saved him, gods the one who tried to kill him.
The medical crew on that field deserves endless praise, they had not a second to waste and barely any room if any at all for error and ended up saving this guys life. Now he's out there as a full participant in practice only months after this and has made what looks like a full recovery.
U are correct they saved his life. He stopped breathing TWICE on the field. When u saw them put him in the ambulance. Then they brought him back out . They had to get his HEART going again. What a crazy night. ❤️
Who cares, this happens all the time, we need to fix this issue, which is done by all eating a whole foods, plant based diet, create a natural, non toxic environment, in nature, in our cities, and in all our products, as well as exercise more, it’s so easy, but greed for money is the problem as always. Also, we have 8 billion people, and only 1 planet. If people cared as much about the planet that they do their friends, family, or this guy, our climate wouldn’t be getting worse and worse all the time. We only have 1 planet, but we could easily lose 7.5+ billion people, and our species would be fine, especially if only the strongest and smartest were left, and the planet would also benefit from this. Just the objective truth.
@@ncard00none of that vague rant has anything to do with the original comment, go find relative posts to rant on
@@ncard00you’re totally unhinged. go back to an alex jones video
@@ncard00im so confused by this reply. How do we go from cardiac arrest to Whole Foods lol! What the Hell are you talking about the Planet for? Yes, global warming etc. Is a thing…but it’s not relevant here at ALL so careful saying things like Who cares…geez the audacity
"Did we win?" damn, that's how much he was dedicated to sport, he literally survived death, and he still very deeply cared if his team won or not
its called brainwashing. they learn football and only football. Become Football Pro or be homeless forever.
And that doctor said the cringest fucking thing I've ever heard
He didn’t die though. His heart just had an irregular electrical rhythm. Death is death, no coming back from it. 🤷🏻♂️
@@sbdftw1702no but he was extremely close to dying, cpr for 10 minutes.
@@killanoidd that’s normal
Even though it haw been around 8 months since this happened, I still teared up watching this video, and everything that happened.I'm a huge Bills fan, but seeing everyone in the NFL community come together was amazing.
This was the first football since I moved to my new state and my family and I were in a air bnb to give us time to get our stuff. I was so excited to watch football(not a fan of either team, but just wanted to watch some football) and when Hamlin went down I told my dad, “hey you might wanna come check this out” this scared me.
Me too
SAME
I work in EMS, and me and my coworkers were all watching this live at the station. We all speculated it was commotio cordis, which ive never seen before after 5 years as a first responder.
The only reason he lived was those medical staff being well training. Spectacular job. Im so happy hes alive and well.
💉
Commotio cordis was ruled out by the 2nd arrest. Take a listen to cardiologist Peter McCullough and others talk about this. They're trying to call it CC, but it was not, by definition.
How many more cardiac arrests in healthy young people have you seen since then? There were about 5 high school athletes in Vegas that dropped dead shortly after Damar. Tragic. Definitely the experiment. J Wilderness has several videos of athletes, performers, newscasters, etc, dropping dead while in action.
Thank you for your service. My brother is an EMT with a very young baby. You guys sacrifice so much to save lives. Thank you.
@@twstdreality
Yep
"I almost lost my life out there. Seeing many people meet me and cheer for me when I was discharged from the hospital almost felt like a 'welcome back' to life." - Damar Hamlin
He should change his name to Lazarus, dude got a second bite of the apple.
Damn man I shared a few tears watching this I'm glad buddy ok🤧
Lifelong Bills fan here. Thank you, Cincinatti. Thank you so much for the grace you have always shown us and the respect you gave to Damar and our team that night. Thank you.
Thank God the stadium is so close to UC medical center
I only hate the bills during playoffs but that’s it. At least the fans aren’t assholes
fr (bills fan to here) I have so much respect for them
This is what we all need to do. Care about all people. No matter race, age, gender, I am so proud of how hard he worked to live. Great story
This whole event was staged. Warch the wat he falls he lands on his but before completely falling to the ground. At the SB Damar Hamlin wore a jacket mocking Jesus Christ. The god that everyone prayed to to "Save" his life. All scripted my friend.
My family are diehard Cincinnati fans but I remember my mom and dad both in tears watching, and I came running in hearing them cry. I remember my mom crying saying "that's someones babyboy" can't imagine what he and his family went through
The whole thing was an act. Watch him fall to the ground he lands on his but first. Look at the SB last year. He wore a jacket mocking Jesus Christ crucifixion. After some one who was saved by god that sure is a nice way to give gratitude.
Dude just be happy for him :l@@silvercontained
@@silvercontainedWhy is it always the religious people who are out of their minds? Stop the nonsense conspiracy bs.
@@MFBloosh I know, you can’t exactly fake a potentially life threatening situation
@@MFBloosh if he did try he’d immediately freak when they started CPR
crazy ppl are bashing him for being the comeback player of the year. this dude almost died on the field and yet he’s still here standing. i have nothing but respect for Hamlin.
man, i teared up watching this. the amount of love shown by everyone towards Damar is so special.
Same here, this was beautiful. It's amazing seeing so many people united in times when everyone seems so divided.
It made me cry inside
Same!
I teared up when they said "safe and effective"
Same! 🥲🥲🥲
"You won the game of life"
This will forever give me chills. God bless Damar Hamlin.
You almost died for nothing
It makes me laugh picturing him waking up and the doctor saying this and him just being like “tf?”
Lmao the doctor trying to get in the documentary
he turned his back on God and chose to mock Jesus on the biggest stage. Fuck Damar and the Deep State
Facts
The sportsmanship created by both teams is like a movie. Both teams did incredible and many people tuned in to support Damar!
Yeah and they definitely let them run for a touchdown to make it easy
Unlike the craziness on display at the Superbowl in 2024.
Humanity may seem lost at some points but remember that good people still exist and we CAN come together.
I love how the Bengals cared so much for the Bills during this heartbreaking moment. No matter what the scenario is, it’s not everyday that you see that on or at a football game.
I prayed for him so much and I’m a Cincinnati person. I cried and gave wishes for everyone. It was truly beautiful to see us all come together
It’s because they know life or death is more important than football.
I agree, however, they all know that they have the same poi son running through them. Must be terrifying.
I saw my mom lose her heart beat three times..all those times she came back..I remember praying for him. God bless this young man and all the people who have cardiac issues.
Well Damar Hamlin basically mocked your prayers during the SB last year lol.
Trainers and EMTs on the field, and all the medical staff were the MVPs that night. Neurological functions completely intact. Simply amazing.
Watching this a year later, and it still brings tears to my eyes.
His neurological function being fully intact is amazing and due to flawless cpr. The medical team was perfect. What a beautiful recovery ❤
I was there with my dad. It happened right in front of our section, and he was one of the first people to notice. What was supposed to be the best night of our lives as Bengals fans, turned into the most somber. Very happy Damar is alright. I will say though this night started a chain of negative moments happening in my life, and I truly don't think I'll ever recover or be the same.
What happened?
Yeah what happened
@@nameredacted6221 I mean the video explains it
@@noahmarkow867 the comment above me
@@N.Legend0 oh my gosh you are so dense, we are asking about the negative events in their life, I hate people like you who go around telling people why you are right, when your actually the only one who is wrong.
Damar: "Did we win?"
Doctors: "You won the game of life"
DAMn that hit hard
Pun intended?
I don’t watch sports so I’m not sure why this was suggested for me but man was I sobbing lol. This story is incredible and I never knew there was such love and support within the football community among players and fans. It was really beautiful to see so many people come together
You cried watching a an actor pretend. Watch him fall to the ground. He breaks the impact of the fall by landing on his but first. Look at his jacket he wore at the Superbowl. He was mocking the same god everyone prayed to for him.
@@silvercontained I have to watch. that. I agree that not all is being said or shown.
@@silvercontainedok bro actors can’t be put in ambulances and brought to hospitals
Imagine your boss said “5 minutes then back to work” after you just watched your coworker literally DIE in front of your eyes, then taken away in an ambulance.
Kudos to all the coaches, medical staff, and captains that night for keeping everyone’s mental health a priority over a game.
League has said many times that nobody said that and Joe said it because that’s the normal protocol
I was at the game that night and bravo to all the medical staff and the athletic coach for saving bros life
It works that way at any other job
100th like
@@chadlebato7943 bro where u working 💀
The night that it happened, it took so long to get any kind of real update, I honestly thought we'd witnessed a young man die on national television. I'm still amazed he came out of that with no significant neurological damage. The part about Damar's charity getting that explosion of donations always makes me smile.
the tv signal is delayed, they easily could not have shown the event...as you said " I honestly thought we'd witnessed a young man die on national television", does make you wonder, it was perfectly televised.
Me too. I also loved that the Bengal team were just as worried about Damar. It’s a game teams try to win, but human beings play it. That comes first, IMHO.
I was at the game! it was even worse because the stadium had horrible wi-fi and connection and everyone was trying to look up what happened and see if anyone saw something on tv. the mood in the arena was truly horrible
@@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist2 why?
@Melvin Shine In a way, he technically did die on national television, especially considering that CPR was used for 15 minutes. It's amazing that he survived, made a full recovery, and had no neurological damage.
I'll never forget that day..the whole world went silent..and thousands upon thousands of us prayed for him and his family...it is a miracle beyond compare..Thank you Jesus ..
God pulled him through. I hope this young man stays blessed.
i visited that ICU to support my dad who was recovering from open heart surgery shortly after damar was there. the medical staff there is completely top notch and i am so thankful they were there both for damar and my father, who has since made a full recovery after his triple bypass
Blessings to your dad! ✨

BOT!!!!
I❤ medical staff ⚕️
@@user-ck4by1lx1b bruh you a phyco but prayers to his dad
Back in December, I got incredibly ill, septic shock due to complications from a kidney stone. I nearly died. I was in the ICU for a solid month. While I was there, who would be rushed into the room next to mine? Damar Hamlin. The players from both teams that came to see him and wish him a speedy recovery were some of the greatest people in the world. They treated my wife so well, as if she were a lifelong friend. While I lay in bed, and my wife was unsure if I'd ever wake up again, these beautiful human beings who's friend was also in a very serious situation, embraced her and offered her support and compassion. It's something I will never be able to repay, and something I think about on a daily basis. I am a lifelong Bengals diehard, but I also now love the Buffalo Bills for their tremendous people.
Thank You from Buffalo
That is a beautiful story.
That is awesome
Glad you made it, man. Thank you for sharing.
Holy sh*t.
How the hell did you get complications with a kidney stone.
Did some of the doctors f*ck up the surgery?
This will ALWAYS send chills down my spine. As a bengals fan, im happy to see that he is doing alot better.
Side note, but this event (more so the aftermath) had also been an incredible push for our profession of athletic training. To be able to show people what we are capable of and how important it is to have athletic trainers - and to also see the support from Damar and the NFL for athletic trainers - has been so so huge and meaningful. This is often a worst nightmare for us and we never wish this on any of our athletes/patience, but its so rewarding to see such an amazing outcome - for both Damar and the awareness surrounding the profession!
Fought back tears the entire time I’ve watched this. You don’t see good in the world like this too often.
Me to
Of course you do…😒
@@MsTinkerbelle87 you don’t?
I'm happy he fully recovered. I'll be rooting for him

It Was A Ritual, Y’all Know Masons Control Your Sports Games
He mocked Jesus Christ. you shouldn't root for him
@@sebastiannnb boo fucking hoo
@@sebastiannnb Not everyone is a believer, even some of us mock alot of other religions in the past jesus probably wouldn't like it if we are this hypocrite.
The best we can do is set a better example.
During the event, I was on the verge of tears. I thought it was much worse than it was. Kept asking for updates from my mom, wondering what was gonnahappen. So glad he turned out ok!!!
That’s so nice to cancel the game and for the bangles to show up to the hospital for him
And the love for damar shirts,hats love it
THIS is a PRIME EXAMPLE of how all news networks need to report news!!! This left me feeling so good after such a tragic event!!! ❤ Hamlin!!!!
With sad music? 😂😂
They should probably also report the truth that a little poke on the arm was the underlying reason
@@ghostcreeper243nope....the Truth!
@@AR7271 more like MAGA delusions
@@jeffc.1956and you know he got the vaccine how?
Damar's collapse was caused by a medical phenomenon called commotio cordis. When Tee Higgins hit Damar's chest with his shoulder, it hit a specific ventricle in Damar's heart at a specific heartbeat and caused the cardiac arrest. It's rare and more common with baseball players. The team that worked on him on the field absolutely saved his life.
This is not what happened. At all
@@andrewg136 Ok Andrew - tell us all, in your professional medical opinion, what happened? We would love to hear your case synopsis.
@@andrewg136 I would absolutely LOVE to hear what actually happened I guess from your genius mind lmao
@@bradentheman1373people theorize that the COVID vax had a hand in it. It has been proven that certain companies’ vaccine caused inflammation around the heart, and that mixed with a huge impact to the heart it’s no wonder he nearly died. Although it’s still speculation, and even if it was true, they aren’t going to say it was the vaccines fault publicly.
@@andrewg136the fact that people liked your moronic comment 🤦♂️
No matter what happens, no matter what team you cheer for, the well-being for another team member regardless of the sport or team, always comes first. Bravo to everyone involved.
i barely watch football, and this man’s recovery and dedication brought me to tears
im glad he’s doing better, and hope he gets a Super Bowl moment soon 🫶🏾
The bills are gonna be waiting a while lmao ☠️
This was scary to see. Both teams, even though they were rivals that day, had cared. Dead silence is something to never hear on a football field, and that is how you know it was serious. They gave him CPR for 15 minutes before he started breathing again. It's a miracle he's alive.
Edit: Everyone in the replies is saying he is dead, and they revived him, and all that. Ok, you've convinced me.
it wasn't that bad..
@@winoveruu It was. He almost died.
@@Chaotic_Person101 he did die
@czn No, he was just unconscious for a couple days. He's fine now.
@@Chaotic_Person101 He didn't almost died. He did die. His heart stopped. They revived him.
I remember watching this game and my brother, a die hard bengals fan, immediately dropped to a knee and began praying. something he rarely does but in that moment I knew he was affected by seeing what we’d witnessed. He even began rooting for the bills after this and kept saying that even though he was a bengals fan for life he hoped the bills would make it to the superbowl.
I started praying after watching it, I live in Cincinnati and I was praying for him and the Bills. I was checking on his status constantly all night long praying he lived. I was crying for him and so worried. We all prayed for the bills. I donated to his charity as well and followed that. We came together so quickly and I’ll forever be grateful for the other fans.
🤓
i was watching the game on tv with my family when it happened. the energy in the room became really tense, and the commercials felt so out of place with what was happening. within around 10 minutes they cut to commercial break about 4 times because of the lack of updates. me and my friends were texting each other pretty frantically trying to figure out what happened and if he would be okay or not. the ambulance on the field really set in stone just how serious this was. i’ve been in the bills mafia for my entire life, and the outpouring of support from not just other bills fans, but from the entirety of the nfl was astounding. massive props to the medical staff who brought back our 3
Im not even that into foot ball but this video is one of the only ones that ive actually cried too. Glad this man is still alive.
This is a cardiac event called Cammotio Cordis. It's when there is heavy impact to a person's chest at an exact time in the heart beat. Great job by the first responders. Immediate CPR is what saved his life.
AKA Covid vaccine.
@@chrisg334I think it was a bit of both. With the evidence of certain vaccines causing inflammation around the heart, plus a major impact to the chest, it’s a miracle he pulled through. Hopefully more people get the help they need after being harmed.
@@chrisg334And your explanation for the instances this occurred before COVID?
@@mageofdoomsie1598You do realize this type of even occurred long before COVID right?
@@danielfernandez6357Educated insight? You do know this same scenario happened before COVID right?
I’m a Bengals fan in Cincinnati. I remember watching the Week 17 game live on TV with my family. Damar Hamlin’s collapse was the most horrifying thing I’ve seen in 23 years of watching football. I’m glad they decided to cancel the game, because I didn’t want to see the game continue and doubt the players and coaches wanted to continue playing after witnessing that. I felt horrible about it and terrible for the Bills fans in attendance. I’m glad none of the Bengals fans in the stadium decided to be jackasses about the situation.
After the game, downtown Cincinnati was full of support for the Bills. Multiple buildings were lit up red and blue. There were signs with the number 3 hanging in windows. I think there may have even been electronic billboard messages supporting Damar.
I’m so glad he covered and I hope he stays healthy. Hopefully he has a great career and does a lot of good with the $9 million his GoFundMe raised. And I hope to God I never see what happened to Damar ever happen again.
As a bills fan watching this game i was horrified because i thought it was just a normal injury from a tackle until my dad said they started CPR. Ill always remember this
It was all fake. Part of the script.
@@silvercontained Well you obviously don’t know football
I remember this day so well I was snowboarding in NC and me and my dad had just finished up our run and headed back home and we walked in our Cabin and my mom said a player collapsed on the field and we sat there the whole time watching the medical team do their thing and just prayed for him. Until we heard that he stopped breathing and we all sat there in silence waiting for something and a ambulance came on the field. The next day that had reports on Damar that he was alive now and we were so relieved that he was ok. ❤ We will always remember that day. Love you Damar. ❤
This story tears me up every time, and I don't even like sports. But I absolutely LOVE a happy ending and seeing the good side of humans.
I was at the game and it was my second NFL game ever. I couldn't believe that day. It still doesn't feel real sometimes but all we care about is that Damar is healthy now
Did they refund it

The energy inside of Paycor stadium was insane that night. I went from turning and high fiving, to turning back and he was down so fast. Deafening roars turned to deafening silence. In the end everyone is just walking out of the stadium in disbelief. Glad he's recovered to good health.
Such a dumb name for a venue. Paycor. Almost as bad as Acrisure. Go back to Paul Brown and Heinz.
As a patriots fan. This is kindness, F that I’m a patriots fan right now. When I saw them get a touchdown on the open kick off I said in my brain “ this is for damar”❤
I was there when this happened. It was terrifying. Everything went silent. It was really scary, I’m so glad he’s okay now
The reaction the public to Damar Hamlin's injury truly restored some of my hope for society. People from all races, political backgrounds, and just different all rallied behind the young man. I honestly will never forget it in a time that this country seemed more divided than ever.
Happy for Damar / God Bless the medical staff that heroically saved his life
Bro really. Sadly many people used this as a way to spread propaganda and blamed the vaccine which is completely dumb
Meh, fuck'em, waste of oxygen
They say America is Football, and something else I forgot the saying, but football is one thing that’ll bring us together.
Until damar wore that Antichrist jacket at the Super Bowl
@@Cassiusclay110they need to do a study on weirdos like y’all
I cannot express how wild that opening kickoff return was. I got to the stadium just in time, seconds to spare, and I saw the stadium absolutely erupt, with numerous people crying. Truly a one of a kind moment that I will never forget.
This story is absolutely beautiful! The fact that a tragedy turned into a heartwarming event is so lovely! Just goes to show that anything can happen!
That immediate CPR and the AED made the difference between life and death.
I’m not an NFL fan I’m more into NBA but I’ll never forget this incident the whole week I was praying that this man didn’t die and when I heard his first words were “did we win?” I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry I was just happy he made it back to his family huge thanks to the doctors who helped him get back on his feet
🤮🤮🤮🤮😵🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐😭🤔😱🤕😭😭😭🤐😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
This reminds me of Fabrice Muamba, a British football player who suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch in 2012. His heart was stopped for over 20 minutes, the match was live and everyone saw him just collapse onto the ground. He made a full recovery but has retired from playing. The body is a mysterious thing, no matter how well you look after it something will always happen.
Yep and then Cristian Eriksen in 2021
and Charlie Wyke
@@jimmy75256 i was about to say that as well
You won't survive if your heart stops for 20 minutes. It's impossible. Somebody had to give him CPR within 3 minutes.
@@kellyanderson7624 They did. CPR was started immediately. Google Fabrice Muamba and read his story.
Everyone that attended or watched this game will never forget this moment. GO BILLS ❤
The fact that nobody is asking how a kid in his 20s who was in incredible health had a heart attack…. There has to be an explanation because that tackle was a very standard tackle
Watched the play happen on live television. It was so heartbreaking and scary to watch, but so wholesome at the same time. The guy who hit Hamlin wasn't like, "Hooray, I took out a good player on the other team!". No, they were crying and felt terrible. Incredible story.
Empty Stadiums are creepy, but filled silent ones I feel are a completely different horror.
I was at work when this game was on. Everyone stopped serving, kitchen staff came to see what happened, customers were watching too. It was crazy
As a Bill's fan, I cried multiple times during this! (The actual event) that medical team needs a raise and endless praise!
I teared up watching. There’s no way to forget what happened. Suddenly this incredible game ceased as everyone, literally everyone focused on what was really important. The two teams, hell everyone pulled for one thing. It’s a reminder that our collective humanity trumps everything that might divide us.
I personally don't care for football much, but I've always had respect for the players and wishing them the best. To hear he recovered and was in high sprites is just awesome.
We all have our favorite teams but when a NFL player goes down we are there to support him no matter what team God bless
I remember the moment this happened, it was scary. I remember thinking he might not make it. Hearing about his recovery was heartwarming, and I hope this never happens again.
I lost my dad on December 16th. I don't know why but when I found out what happened with Damar that night while the game was happening (i got home late and caught it halfway through while it was postponed) all I could do was beg my dad to make sure he didn't join him. I remember asking my mom to add him to her prayers. The next several hours of not hearing an update just had me unable to sleep. I didn't even know this guy. I didn't even really watch the Buffalo Bills. I'm a Cowboys diehard but I felt like watching football that night. I'm glad I did. I'm glad this young man is okay.
Man I remember this happening because it was soon after it happened to me. I went into cardiac arrest while playing and had cpr done for 7 minutes and was technically dead that whole time. I am so blessed to be here and so is damar
were you also forced to have the not so necessary but necessary to keep your job thing?
@@eastbow6053we got mr tinfoil hat over here
Right after they started giving him CPR it cut to the burger king, wapper song.
Im not into football my hubby is and i just happend to have this game on. This popped up in my feed and as i rewatched this i yelled very loud as they ran from one side to the other! God bless damar! #3 also god bless those who saved his life! YEAH!
I was at this game (bills fan) and it was honestly heartwarming to see the community support between bills and bengals fans right as it happened. we were all just sitting there in shock and i saw many fans crying into opposing fans shoulders, from both teams. every single bengals fan i saw was unbelievably nice and were clearly all going through the same things bills fans were. it was nice to know that we could be united by something like this. +respect bengals fans, still hate you for the playoffs though 😂
Now you get how us pats fans felt
Hey go bills man
i was there as well. i shook every Bills fan hand i saw that night. i also work for UC hospital. when i saw that ambulance come on the field, i knew this was life threatening. like all the others in the stands, i stood there in stunned silence wondering what life threatening situation had befallen Damar. such a scary night, but there was beauty in it. the fans came together and soothed one another. Who Dey Nation and Bills Mafia, brothers and sisters for life
how u think lions fans chuck hughes actually died on the sideline and didnt make it
Hey, Bengals fan here. We've been kinda brother fanbases since that Bengals/Ravens game. Respect to y'all. Play hard in the playoffs but after the game is over, nothing but love. We know what it's like to get so close but not win it too over here. Freaking hurts, and we are solid fanbases.
There is no other fan base like the Bill’s mafia.. the amount of love and support that they give out during times like this is truly incredible.. it is possibly the most infectious fan base in the NFL.. I will most certainly not forget a single moment from that night..
Bills*
@@jarlwhiterun7478yes here's your cookie it has chocolate chips in it
I agree but I feel like most fan bases would have been this way, something like this hasn't taken place in many years it would have been a shock for any team and that would have been the same show of emotion and love for the teammate
Except for the ones sending death threats to Tee Higgins and his mother for the accidental hit.
I remember where I was when I heard this. Don't watch football but I was praying he made it through. Was so happy to hear he would be ok. Very touching
That was so beautiful it brought me to tears. It's really heartwarming to hear a story like this, and I'm glad the team and fans came together as one big family. Hats off to these guys. They're the real heroes.
As a healthcare professional, I watched this live as another day in the office. It's easy to forget when you work codes and crazy situations in the medical field constantly that this isn't a normal experience for the public. I think the responders did an excellent job.
Not only am I not a Buff Bills fan but I'm not even into Football that much and this had me holding back tears the whole way through. Wow. What a beautiful story.
whoever edited this video did an AMAZING job
I'm not from the USA, I'm from Argentina and I don't even understand football but I was very interested in the video because of the edition
My heart was breaking I’m so glad he’s ok but what they did for him had me in tears!!
As a bills fan, I watched this game live and I remember tearing up watching Allen and Diggs crying and same with all the other team while they made a circle around him. I am so god damn grateful for Buffalo General and UC Medical, for their help. God bless all of you. I remember when my grandfather was in Buffalo General, shortly before his passing. They were great. I really appreciate all of you and all the staff everywhere. Love you Damar. #3
Great writing. You damn your God in one sentence, then ask for a blessing in another.
So glad Damar’s okay. This was so scary to see.
I remember being at work waiting for this game. I took a nap woke up with the game cancelled and watched the video of the collapse and was just shook wasn't able to talk or anything. Glad he made a speedy recovery🙏
i’m not even a bills fan but this got me on the verge of tears, i remember that like it was yesterday with everyone in school talking about it, praying about it before class, and the whole nfl world stopping right there to watch him fight for his life, and win.
Guess what he mocked the god you prayed to. Look at his jacket he wore in the super bowl last year. He got you sucker
It's not the scariest, it's the most beautiful moment of the NFL. It's hard times where we know and see, who is really on our side and the fact not only his family, but the whole team, the whole NFL and all of its fans supported him, is the true beauty of this moment
Yeah "the scariest moment" surely not. Charles Hughes actually died on the field.
@@geometricart7851 That's actually the reason I avoided saying it's the scariest moment, since I was sure there had to be an even worse moment than this
Does demar know about chuck Hughes
@@geometricart7851the difference between Hughes and Hamlin is that Hughes had a previous medical condition that went unnoticed, while Hamlin was hit at the exact hundredth of a second to stop his heart.
If you watch him collapse and say it’s beautiful then you’re messed up. Nothing beautiful about what happened here, never should’ve happened.
I'm a Bengals fan. That was a terrifying moment watching that game. I even know the exact words he said when he woke up. "Did we win?" And the nurse/doctor said: "you won the game of life". Ill never forget that=)
bro fr said "did we win" after he had a heartattack💀
Watching this live was so scary. It just kept going between commercial breaks and every time it cut back to the broadcast there was still no news. I wasn't so worried at first, thought it could have been concussion because he looked wobbly when he got up, but the minutes just kept going by. It was so surreal going into the game just worried about the bye and one hour later wondering if our safety was alive
The medical team deserved all the praise they received. They were amazing! I'm so glad Damar has made an amazing recovery. I don't say the word "miracle" too often, but him surving is definitely a miracle.
I remember watching this live. This video brought back all of the tears
i will forever remember watching this whole situation unfold on tv. cried every single day until he was out and then kept crying days after because he survived. absolutely incredible work from the bills medical team honestly.
Seeing the whole situation unfold and go from so dark to uplifting and ultimately a massive positive was amazing. So proud to call those who treated Damar and helped him make it through this terrifying experience my coworkers.
So thankful your still here with us buddy 🙏🤝
I completely remember this. That teams are like best friends now because of this and he thankfully survived this awful disaster.
I remember this moment. I watched it on YT, and I too was wishing Hamlin a recovery. This moment taught me one thing:
We all have our favorite teams, but when a player falls, we all stand together & hope he's okay alongside his fans in the stands.
I can’t imagine what that moment feels like for both men involved- obviously we know how terrifying and stressful and traumatic it is for Damar but I also imagine it was rough for Tee too. On both ends and even for the players and spectators and even us at home, I think it was a stunning reminder of how fragile we really are.
This is a reason why i love pro sports and will continue to watch most of them. Even though the Bills have been a long time rival for our team, still, a young dude almost passed, but everyone, even the Bengals they were against helped and supported his getting better. Good job on every medical staff, players, teammates, coaches. Everyone did a good job that day
I'm not a football Guy or fan but I can say I prayed for this man!!!! My oldest son was watching the game and I saw this and just was crazy!!! God bless you my man and hope the best for you!!!
I was speechless when I saw this happen. I’m glad he’s OK and I am super proud of the responders. They made the right choice suspending and in the end not resuming the game. After what just happened I couldn’t imagine what would happen if they tried to go back to playing.
Lifelong bills fan and Buffalo resident here, and I just want to say how magical it was to see his recovery and how supportive the whole city became
