he couldn't speak until he was 6 and had hardships speaking most of his life that what he meant when he said he and everybody around him thought this prize is impossible. he is a hero.
Starting with a laugh, Ending with a tear. Both emotional bonds can make someone hear from the heart not the ears. When the senses are hooked, words flow easy and resonate fast to get the desired reaction. Mohammed started by breaking the ice with funny research findings which he made up, then shared a personal experience about this own son, which inevitably is very reliable, then sarcasm with the old scientist explaining global warming, to end up with death, the apogee of emotions! The body language wasn't absent from the scene, the facial emotions and the tone of voice were adding a lot to the story.. A strong thesis statement concluded the act: Words have power. Words are power. Words can change a life; Inspire a nation. They can make this world a beautiful place.
5 years since becoming a Toastmaster, listened to thousands of speeches... No other speech has inspired me more...this has stayed with me like forever.. I must have watched this speech a thousand times and enjoy it and get awe struck and inspired everytime... Thank you soo much for this wonderful speech Mohammad Qahtani.. Love from India
What a speech, I have watched it over countless times and still can't get bored watching it again. It had: - Great Substance : Had multiple beautiful messages - Impactful - Perfect voice modulation - 100% audience engagement - Great Humour - Perfectly executed - No repetitive fillers like aa, you know - Perfect Face Expressions : there never was a straight face
I feel like im watching a play in a theater & the casts are: Scientist: Alqahtani Crayon kid: Alqahtani Narrator: Alqahtani Nasser: Alqahtani Nasser's father: Alqahtani
I was shocked to know he suffered from Stuttering before ... these kind of people are really inspiring I get very anxious and even diarrhea each time I have to present especially in front of new people . When I see him and listen to his story I have a little of hope .
It's a vicious cycle of school life that would never end...it does not matter if you live in a first or third world country, bullying is there, it destroyes ones confidence, trust and desire in life in general and it's effect would accompany one through out life
So spot on. This one hit close to home...thankfully I was stronger than the venomous words...but they absolutely do a lot of damage when a simple change in the way you say something can make all the difference in a person's life.
Just re-listened to this today. I really like how he goes from a simple story to more complex stories, and build up to the climax. Powerful speech/message/words for sure.
@@Syedimranrashid There is a lot of fluent English speakers and other languages But the media does not focus on them!! you have for example Minister of Foreign Affairs Adel bin Ahmed Al-Jubeir
I was enrolled in a private high school in Saudi Arabia and there were more than a few brilliant Saudi students who then moved on to study in very well accredited universities all over the world This was 1996-1998 in Jeddah.
WOW! Mohammed you are amazing. Powerful content he deliver the speech with great sense of humor and with confidence out of this world. He inspire others to become great speakers and pursue of going to the world champion speech contest including me. Thank you!
Words when said in the right way can change someone's life. You have the power to bring someone from the slams of life and make a successful person out of them. Or you could kill someones dreams - using only your words - Mohammed
Everytime I feel discourage in doing my craft, I automatically search this speech. His speech is so powerful, the way he wrote it the way he deliver it. So perfect! Thank you Mohammed. You inspire me since 2016 when I first watched this. Now I am song writer, doing the things I love. I wanna inspire others, just like you sir!
"When he started to light a cigarette, people were shocked not because it was bad for his health but because they considered it as impolite, and also because the smell of the smoke is not pleasant!"
Just a random afternoon in my life, and came across this speech. I guess my coming days will be much different than today. This speech is life changing🥺 Thank you.
You are absolutely right about the scientist bit. As a scientist myself, I have noticed people are more convinced by how someone says something rather than what they say, no matter how smart the person or his arguments are. I’m not blaming anyone but that realisation means I have to improve my skills and I am grateful that you are helping others!
I just saw this speech today. I regret not seeing it years ago. Imagine what difference would it make to me. But it's never too late. I'll remember this one for years to come.
شاهدت و ما زلت أشاهد العديد من المرات هذا المقطع لأنه صراحة يعطينا دافع قوي نحو تحقيق الأهداف و التغلب على الصعوبات ولذلك محمد القحطاني بفوزة بالمركز الأول يعتبر شرف كبير لنا جميعا .تحياتي لك (محمد القحطاني)
He won at the first moment of speech. amazing opening, attractive manner of speech, sense of humor... you have the complete package Mr. Mohammed ALqahtani
Really he is an actor with powerful words I think it never ended, Extremely inspiring It is sure , he can do something for the people , especially for the Arabs Congratulations MUHAMMED QUAHTANI
truly impressive, I will watch it again, everything is aligned, the timing, the words, the tone, the impact, the speed, the body expression, thanks for sharing Mohammed!
Sir the power of your words not only changed me it changed my life entirely. The first time I showed my parents they didn't not want to watch you after your first few sentences. I told my parents you must listen on because its not what you think.
Semper Fi, I use this speech to assist Veterans who are down and think negatively or have family to speak down to them. To show them the power of thought process and words. I work with homeless veterans and suicide prevention and the power of words are more than one even understands. The power of your few minutes toast Masters speech is that powerful.
Sir. Mohamed, thank you for this amazing speech. Even when this words were told some years ago, the impact continues being powerful. Greetings from México!
Best speach ever, I love his confidence, love his intro and conclusion, very effective and life changing presentation. Very deserving to be the winner.
You make us all proud of you and you gave us a lesson in life that never give up. Every time I saw this speech I feel the same when I saw it for first time.
I listened to this year's ago and still to this day I make sure I use the right words with the right people. But most importantly with yourself. Treat yourself to better people, everyone else around you will notice the difference.
ولله فخر طريقته في النصح جميله جدا انا سعيده اني شفت احد نفسه من السعوديه❤️ Yes he is the greatest after the god (Allah). Im happy to see someone like him from saudi arabia ❤️
Fantastic speech and deeply true! things like this, I feel, should be taught at the earliest ages. The world education system could do so much more in teaching about kindness, compassion, and the other good things of human beings. Many children grow up in a negative environment. This type of talk is also something that we can say to ourselves in our mind because our inner self talk can heal us or hurt us as well. It may take time to change ourselves but it isn’t how long it takes as much as thinking in the right direction.
But do your students YEET? Y: You must write your speech carefully E: Etiquette is important, don’t try to offend anyone E: Everybody is listening, but don’t focus on a single person T: The expressions you make matter more than the words
thank you for sharing my speech . glad you guys liked it
Stunning speech. A worthy winner. Hope you can come back to Ireland again soon.
Congrats Mohamed 👍
Awesome speech, prize deserved

I can only wish it was longer.
I want this video to be shown in every School so that those fuckimg bullies would understand how muh they're impacting someone's life.
It's a vicious cycle of school life that would never end...it does not matter if you live in a first or third world country, bullying is there, it destroyes ones confidence, trust and desire in life in general and it's effect would accompany one through out life
It wouldn't matter. Bullies are aware of what they do.

"When he started to light a cigarette, people were shocked not because it was bad for his health but because they considered it as impolite, and also because the smell of the smoke is not pleasant!"
No it’s against the law to smoke inside buildings or near them in Australia. Maybe the same there?
you made the speech like a stand up comedy. Well done Muhammed , you created a new way of speech.
He has a connection to audience. His humor and stage presence is just great
Just a random afternoon in my life, and came across this speech. I guess my coming days will be much different than today. This speech is life changing🥺 Thank you.
