I wish I knew this didn't have a happy ending before I started watching. This is heartbreaking.
fr, just cut the video 2 mins early lol
Dude freaken same
So ill just stick with the recap
Wow. Thanks. Was just gonna search it. I will just watch the recap then.
The kid overcame so much and to die that way... shame.
Some of the Burlswoth trophy winners: JJ Watt, Stetson Bennett, and Baker Mayfield
Baker mayfield is on my fantasy
@@joe-mc1kw BOOMER!
@@envyhysteria are you a Gen AA? Mayfield was born in 95 so anyone who knows him or plays fantasy has to be GenX or younger. Boomers don't waste time on something that started after Gen X like fantasy football. Most of Gen X plays fantasy football.

@@staticthewhitewolf7040 ok weirdo
This is absolutely the most worthwile recap I have ever seen.
Thanks
@@MrRecapFromTH-cam I normally don't sit through ones this long.
But this is a beautiful story and you made sure to get every important detail to really tell it all in this recap.
Sitting here with a big smile on my face and eyes a bit watering from the ending, from a movie I'd never have thought to watch.
Gonna go watch it now in full.
So thanks for this recap. Showed me a new movie I can enjoy.
Honestly all the “fat kids” I knew growing up turned out to be the tallest and strongest guys I know.
Lmfao i was fat af growing up , stopped growing at 5’9 but im built like an absolute brick shit house now. We either grow tall or wide😂
@@BrooklynRedneck16. Stuck at 5’9 for now. Hope I’m taller, but I am a tubby boy 😂!. Also hey from Mississippi!!!
Bulking before the ripping!
i was 6'4 growing up and fat, now im 29 and still fat :( i wish i had the motivation
Yep. My youngest son was teased at school for being a fat kid. Today, at 21, he's 220 of solid muscle.
God didn't want to wait to hang out with him. He left a great legacy
Burlsworth didn't die, God just needed someone to block the A gap
@@joshc1981 god aint real bud
@@CodeNameWaffleyou not quirky or edgy lil bro like no one is laughing
BS
@@Seahawksfan4life but hes not wrong
The sad ting is he would have been a 10 year starter in the NFL. He would have had a Super Bowl ring with Peyton Manning. He already had the starting spot there and worked at it, but sadly it was all taken away.
the sad thing is that he died
@@sirundyingAlways gotta be one of you clowns 🙄🤡🤪
We all die one day .
What killed him?
@@adrianmoore2750 car crash on the way to signing his contract
This recap made me cry
I no joke watched for one second and then decided I’d watch the full movie. It genuinely moved me it’s beautiful
This was a brutal one at the end. I forgot the tragic parts of this story.
Made me cry too
It was hard to nut through the tears.
I’ve seen many of these movie recaps, this one caught me so fucking offguard. I had no idea about this story and I’m so glad I came across it. A truly tragic but amazing story at the same time. What a truly amazing human
I can’t believe, as a huge football fan pushing 40, I’ve never heard of this guy.
The movie this video summed up is "greater"
If you were an Arkansas fan you would have known who he was. He was already a legend at Arkansas before he died.
He was drafted to protect Peyton Manning. The movie glosses over a few things, like he was athletic as hell for an offensive lineman. Brandon, at 290, could run a 4.8. He also had incredible agility. They still have a saying at Arkansas, so things the burlsworth way.
That sweet lady is a poster mom. A kind, Christian mom who raised 2 stand up gentlemen. Hats off to his mother. 🎉
Respect and friends are earned through hard work
"DUDE JUST WALK ON THE GRASS!"
Was hilarious.
I cried for Brandon and myself. His mother is like my mom. She never lost her faith in God.
Lord this has me tearing before work man.. RIP dude, RIP
That was such an impactful review of a movie I've never seen. 😢RIP Brandon 🙏🏾
Alway the best recaps ❤
You're the best!
Absolutely wholesome, wonderful and beautiful. Hard work, faith, dedication and kindness. Gone but not forgotten.
This movie crushed me. I can't ever stand the ending. It's an inspirational movie, and the story of Burlsworth is more than worthy of it. But the true ending can break anyone.
What is the name of the movie
@@majidafridi2743 greater, I think.
this movie is truely touching and inspiring , thank for the recap.
What's the name of the movie
@@smartsakis Greater, 2016
at 0:11 cap is on the camera heh
Bro u got to love this man best person I ever watched
Damn, didn't expect that ending
I don't know why, but i needed this, i needed to hear Brandon's story,
I'm dealing with cigarettes and smoking addiction and i hope this story helps me push through it.
You got this my friend. 🎉
Brandon is an inspiration for all of us
0:11 the guy in the back is taking a picture with the lens cap on lmao
This is really heartwarming
Thanks for sharing this story ❤
Such a motivationg story
Its a sad ending. Didnt know it is a true story. This shattered me inside.
Was expecting a Happy Ending, what a Tear Jerker. Thanks for the upload Man.
the best recap i ever saw im speachless
The Burlsworths are a great family. Marty's kids are so humble when you ask them about their uncle.
54 year old man here with tears in his eyes..this is truly a American dream with tragedy ending..my heart goes out to his family friends and team mates
There's surprisingly way more good people in this movie than I initially thought.
Edit: There's surprisingly way more hardships in this movie than I initially thought.
Didn't expect, but this teared me up. Very inspring story. Very well edited with great respect.
"Dude, just walk on the grass!" Been there, heard that... Such an amazing story!
At 0:12, the actor that plays the photographer, the brother of Brandon, is a good actor. He is Christian, and NEVER swears a word in all of his movies. He had a number of roles in Star Trek movies.
This movie has the quality of a new employee safety video lol good recap tho
What a sad yet uplifting story. Bravo sir.
Thank you so much. This story brought to my eyes some much needed tears !
The best recap I have ever seen.
“I’ve played against Walk-Ons, THAT is no walk-on”
Probs for the dude
That mom has a heart of gold. May not doing everything perfect but damn she tries very hard and thats what every child wants
Arkansan here. I never knew Brandon or his story until now. Thanks for sharing this emotional and inspirational recap
"You guys are terrible!!!" LOL!
I caught this movie recently. It's a good movie. Amazing story. Very inspirational.
What’s the name of it
Oh yeah you caught it huh? Whats the name?
Movie name is ۔Greater
A movie that uses a pillow to make someone look fat, and getting a 50yr old to play a late 20's early 30s, you know your in for a treat.
The kid fat keeps moving around his body, and his weight look always changes.
Lol, using a wheel barrow to carry a roll of fencing, cyclone fence a.k.a chainlink fence.
This feels like 4 seasons of any other show on tv. How long is this movie, 12 hours? Let's Go Brandon!
the end 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
This movie is so good and inspiring. I watched 3 times and still watch this recap.
What a beautiful story❤
This is one of my favorite recaps
12:53 best line in this movie. "That is no wlak on" amazing.
I was 16 when I went to that Arkansas / Tennessee game and I had no clue about his backstory. I was just pissed that my girlfriend couldn't attend the game with me because she fell asleep driving home from our Friday night high school football game. She wound up driving through a retirement community's mini-golf course and luckily wasn't too shaken up, but wasn't up for the football game the next day.
To make things even more fun, my family lived in Arkansas before moving up to Tennessee, and my sister was in the UT band but still dated a dude from Arkansas (that I had to sit with). He was so drunk that he was pulling down his pants to show all the UT fans his Sunday best Hogs briefs when the stumble fumble happened.
Almost 30 years later I learn about this side of the story and it really puts my minor inconveniences that day into perspective. Wish I could have seen him play with Peyton during his Colts days.
I am crying like a little baby!! God needed his Angel back that is why he took him so young!! I pray for the family and his teammates!! They where all blessed to have him in their lives!!! RIP YOUNG GOOD SIR MAY YOU BE WITH JESUS!!!!🙏🏾 up!!!!!!!!
8:27 why did he sit behind that guy with so much space on the bleachers?😂
Sketch got a movie
❌️❌️❌️❌️❌️❌️❌️❌️❌️❌️
Even in death God used him, look at the wonderful things that have happened as a result of his dedication to God first, then his craft. RIP young man
His movie "Stronger" is still an all time great flick.
What a wonderful and tragic story about that amazing young man and his loving family.
I see so much of myself in his story. Truly touching. I am shedding tears i have many of my former players that understand his plight no one wanted to give us a chance and we took it with the power of the most high. None of us were stars but we wanted to bring our teams pride. Truly an amazing story. One that deserved to be told
It's awesome seeing all the kids at their first Razorback game for the first time. Every home game they have their own special section and get a featured shout out on the video screen and a announcement. The announcer ends it with "The Burls kids.. Doing it, the Burls way."
0:10 the camera lens cap is still on.
Nice catch
😂
👏🏿 that story had me 😭
I rewatch this movie every so often, my heart still breaks at the end
Dude. after hitting the near end of this recap, my plan of watching it change. It will just put tears in my eyes.
The name of the movie is called Greater
TY
the fact it is a real story shatters my heart
To the human eyes it was painful he left this world the way he did. But to the heavens he was ready.
great recap. heart wrenching story.
"Cmon Lucas Your Gon Be A Linebacker" "NOOO IM A WIDE RECEIVERRRR"
Damn I never knew this story. That's so tragic. I wanted to look up his NFL football record until I saw the ending
Nice job, bro
The brother and mother show why it is so important to have masculine and feminine influences in a child’s life.
I foster kids, and as much as I HATE the self esteem bs, there is a grain of truth to it. The most important thing for a child to have is to truly believe he is loved. Love a kid so much that he learns to love himself and see himself as something worthy of love. But model love not in indulgence or only pleasure but sacrifice and discipline.
As the child grows and sees that discipline IS an aspect of love, you create a powerhouse of an individual. You only have the first five years to really pour the tap of love into a person, after that it becomes increasingly difficult to convince a person that they are worthy of love.
I'm not crying, its the dust i swear!
This is the best story I ever heard I am crying 😢right now
This is a good movie but it kind of exaggerated Brandon's "underdog-ness" a little bit. The truth is that Brandon was not a "fat boy" like the actor who potrayed him in the movie. He was actually a phenomenal, gifted athlete. Yes, he was a few pounds overweight when he first. showed up on campus at Arkansas, but he was a great athlete even then. In high school he ran a 5.0 in the 40, which is phenomenally fast for an offensive lineman. He got scholarship offers from several smaller schools. He was a very hard worker and I'm not claiming otherwise, but you don't become an All-American and get drafted to play in the NFL without having a lot of athletic ability.
Love this movie thanks bro
This was such an emotional movie for me. I remembered this team and it was my favorite year as a Razorbacks fan. I had the "Rocky Dropped" newspaper for years...
Damn that is a story of hope but such a tragic ending which beautifully turned into greatness for players in College and the Pros
Wow what an amazing story. Very sad he passed so soon. Sounds like a GREAT human
Such a sad but beautiful story… I think that God said you have achieved perfection and now I need you up here.
Burlsworth is a legend in Fayetteville....Hog fans will always love him😊..its the SEC Rudy but not the happy ending. Houston was ok for us at first but fell back into Broyles playback of ground and pound which took us only so far before the sec crushed us....we got to a top 10 ranking with Petrino but lost him because nonsense...but we have Petrino back now...Hogs coming
1998 was so close to being a magical season. Imagine if steoner doesn't trip and the refs don't give MS State a field goal they obviously missed. It's an undefeated regular season. I recently saw a list of the top 10 heartbreaking Arkansas losses and that TN game only made it to number 10. That itself shows how hard it is to be an Arkansas fan
He dies in a car accident in the end. Just after getting hos dream😢
I don’t follow college football but I do watch the NFL. So the whole time I was listening to this video while I was driving I was trying to figure out why I wasn’t familiar with this player 😢 well done recap
The end of this movie was heartbreaking
Beautiful story!
Brooooooooo this made me cry 😭😭😭😭😭
Idk what it is about the camera work in this movie but it feels like im watching one of those medication commercials
Beautiful film!
I remember this story. Very deep.
That was amazing
I never heard of his story until now. I plan to watch this movie.
Nice....im in tears
Wow, what a Champion. Dude should be made into a saint.
"like a dagestani ufc fighter" holy that caught me off guard lol
This is a great movie but has a said ending. Got to love Arkansas and love the hard work that guy did to make his dreams come true.
a true friend stand by you in hardship moment .regardless of any outcome .
This was based on a true story, and it was a damn good one!!!
i didnt see that tear jerker coming... damit!
The guy in the thumbnail is heavily filtered 😂😆😂 dafuq was you thinking?
Outstanding story. He did so much and is continuing to this day!
