    Dieselducy has been a favorite TH-cam channel of mine since the early 2010s and I have watched and enjoyed so many of what Andrew has established and published for over a decade! And how Andrew gets all of us inspired through his interests and love of elevators shows that not only we get to enjoy elevators in different places but we get to learn about them too! And no matter what autism conditions one person has, it’s all about just doing your best and being the best of who you are, and that liking what you like is something you’re allowed to have and you shouldn’t be ashamed of liking what you like.

    It really made my heart open with how Andrew addressed people who bully as “them feeling insecure with themselves and making themselves feel big by tormenting others they think look weaker, but that most of the time the victims are the bigger people.” It’s such a truthful and clever way to address such common conflicts and proper ways through that.

      @BJMediaTransit8516 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I always had thoughts on elevators being fun for quite a while and once I found out elevator enthusiasts have been a trendy thing all over TH-cam, that’s how I was inspired to become one too.

    This is truly an amazing story! I also have a hobby of filming elevators. I love watching his channel and it makes my day. I also have autism and was diagnosed back in 2015. Today continue my passion of filming elevators and love watching all other TH-camrs as well.

    I am very amazed and happy that Andrew made the news! He is an awesome person that does amazing things for elevator enthusiasts and Autism in general. I’m an elevator enthusiast too with Autism I also had kinda a similar past that he had. But still I’ve loved elevator’s since I was about 4 years old. It feels awesome and special to be in an elevator community like his that has been around for so long. I just wish I knew this existed when I was a kid

    Andrew reams had made this world a better place especially for me to become exactly like him is tremendously miracle. If it wasn’t for him I wouldn’t be identifying myself where I am today. God bless this amazing and remarkable man and May he be with us as long as possible and we got to inspire the world to appreciate and be like him.

    Hey I was also diagnosed with autism and there’s nothing wrong with that and there is nothing wrong with being an elevator enthusiast. Don’t listen to what other people say about you because I went to something similar to what you went through. I was bullied too but always remember you are loved and worth it.
