****************************************************************************************
UPDATE:
I really want to thank everyone for the kind words and creative criticism. I also would like to thank my instructor, Suzanne Shumway, for her patient awesomeness and for her recording this video to post in the first place. It was and is a subject I truly believe in for all of us.
I have had many requests regarding the use of this speech for other speeches and class assignments. I absolutely give permission for anyone to use this speech, if it will help you in your class or for an assignment. All I ask is that you use it positively, as it was intended, and that you let me know how it went.
Thanks again,

I loved how he attracted the listener by putting on the cape and stuff. I also liked how he kept on saying "you could be a hero too". He brought us into it.

I am currently taking a speech class and stumbled upon this. Great job.

Thanks Jorge! I took the Public Speaking class at SAC over the summer, and I loved your presentation! I hope to incorporate it into the Brazo Zulu Radio (.com) show on 9/3/21. Let me know if I can ever do anything. Riley
My students are getting ready to deliver their speeches and I'm going to use this as an example to show how it all comes together, thank you!
How it's helpful.
Very good Platform Delivery Content (PDC). You kept eye content with your audience, very good examples including the heros today, and you had good visual aid for your audience to know that it doesn't matter if any one has a cape or a symbol because thier real reason is that they're a hero is to help others and make lives easier. I did some imitative at my work cleaning up their work bench (''A clean shop is a safe shop'') but they complained to me about it and didn't appreciated it. Now I haven't done anymore ever since. But I do know that doing and imitative makes you feel good.
Amazing speech. University of the People Bussiness Administration class brought me here.
"The result could be that we start a chain reaction that spreads the spark of heroism." One of my fav lines from this speech.
I found out that audio excerpts from this speech video have been featured and used in other youtube videos. That's cool! If there are more, I'd love to see them.
hey, I've been using your speech in my public speaking for years. well done!
I'm a TA for a CAS class and this is an excellent source for content on persuasive speeches. I intend to show this to my class. Thank you for posting it.
Excellent speech! I use your video in my public speaking classes as an example of how to give an effective presentation. I've been showing it for years now! I really appreciate you posting this, and helping me help my students (and I'm sure numerous faculty and students feel the same way). Well done, sir!
Thank you.
Dr. Tony Smith is my Professor and posted your video as a great persuasive speech example his class should follow! Great Job!
I love this. I'm going to school to be an animator because I want to spread happiness to the world through art because it's always been there for me. Over the past year, in fact, I've grown strong feelings for the following thought..."as an artist, it's our job to share our creations with the world, even if it could make just one person happy." I feel so strongly about it, I cry when I write about it...I'm a little emotional. I sell my art as "affordable, personalized happiness" because growing up I couldn't have all the stuff that inspired me. Especially in today's economy, I want everyone to be able to afford a little stuffed animal of their favorite cartoon character, or a caricature of their grand kids, or something.
Tonight I have spent almost an hour looking through persuasive student speeches because my assignment in communications (speech) class is to critique a persuasive speech. Being a hero. That's such an epic persuasive speech...because it's so true! I'm definitely critiquing this speech. What I'll probably talk about is...the pace of the speaking was perfect, there was an example to support the speech, it was a good time length, there was an obvious beginning, body, and closing, there was a clear thesis statement, etc. The only suggestions I have for it aren't even for the speech itself. The tapping on the podium was causing a distracting sound through the mic. That's actually all I can see right now.
Thank you so much for doing this speech, and especially thank you for posting it! You've officially ended my search (and time wasting) in finding a good speech, so tonight, you're my hero! c:
I am a community college professor in Dallas. I show your speech at persuasive presentation time to my students for many reasons, not the least of which is your use of PowerPoint-free visual aid, your establishment of social problem, and the end in which you reveal your personal hero. Thank you.
thanks this is great I used this as a example in my academic English class and teacher said it was a great speech awesome job
Thanks you very much for defining "unsung heros".
It was really good speech .
My teacher from English department of North South University brought me here...
thanks a lot ....
I liked the speech! Great message! I was inspired myself to do some more good in the world.
What an excellent speech!! Very persuasive!!
That was beautifully done! I'm in speech class and currently initiating persuasive speaking and looking for topics and ideas. Obviously, I don't want to plagiarize mainly because internally, I want it to feel like it comes from within me. And it is awesome that you found a topic that can be applied to variety of audiences. I love the use of your visual aid, and I mean "USE", it was captivating and nicely organized, very easy to remember your speech too. Any ideas on choosing a topic? :)
had to watch this for english class, pretty inspiring notheless
I love your speech!
I LOVE this speech!!! I am going to Bethany College to become a motivational speaker. I have been looking on youtube for great examples of certain types of speeches, This was the best example of a Persuasive speech. Thank You!
Thanks gave me a lot of ideas to improve my speech thanks a lot.
You have done a great job on this speech. Our teacher had us watch this and I'm glad I got to see it. I was inspired by it. Thank you for starting your own chain reaction.

The best part was how he said his wife was his hero at the end :) Great speech!

The podium must be the villain of the speech because he beats the hell out of it over and over.

Hi there, high school teacher here. I am planning to use your video as a positive example of using visual aids that truly enhance the message. Wonderful job :)
This is a very good piece. You had a perfect esteem when introducing people to the topic.
The podium must be the villain because he keeps hitting it a lot
Nice job. Now I am motivated enough to finish my paper :D
This is amazing and timely...………..
Awesome speech. The best i have seen so far.
I love this speech. There is so much truth in it. It's going in my favorites.
Excellent speech sir!
Great job I'm taking a speech class in needed this for motivation.

Yep, I'll be using it in my Year 9 English class.
Thank you for sharing this video... The topic of this persuasive speech is very appropriate nowadays... I will surely share this with my students...
And make sure to warn them about my podium abuse. lol
Imitation is the highest form of flattery...
with that being said, I am so gonna copy your attention grabber at the beginning.
You're my hero! ;)
Very good speech. I think I will do a similar speech in my class. Thank you for the inspiration.
Awesome Speech Might Have To use this for a speech, Good Job.
Awesome speech
this was an awesome speech
What a great speech. Geez. I could never have made a speech this great in my class. I thought I had an interesting topic, but this 12 year old speech is STILL way better. Hell, I was in 7th grade when this was made. I had all the time in the world to make a better speech, but couldn't, even if I tried! Great job, Grandeman.
Good job. This is a great persuasive speech. You are a super hero.
great speech!Reminding us that we cna all be heros. Great unigue thoughts.
Good comeback, with the cape and G symbol.
This speech is really inspiring.
I 'd like to have this speech by written. I'm a foreign languages student from Colombia, and I have to deliver a persuasive speech, and I really liked this one. Is there the possibility to send it to me? Thanks.
This video reminded me. Because when I was small my house burnt on fire and my grandma sacrificed her life to save me😢❤️
I really enjoyed your speech. Great job!
Good Speech :D I just had to post one up for my speech class.
Such an hero.
Awesome speech, it gives me idea to my extemporaneous speech tom😊
good speech. going to be using this for my speech analysis essay! lol you did tenderize the podium though XD
This is great
Good speech mate! Pretty cool of you to let us use it as an example for our classes :)
it's a wonderful speech, striking and heart-warming, i'd like to use this for a speech critique assignment sir if you don't mind :) ... of all the videos, this one really stuck in my head :)
good speech, nice job. it's a cool topic, i have to find one, too!
I thought that it was very funny from the beginning when he started, he felt that he was missing something. He went to his bag to pull out his cape his wife made and a symbol.
He used a topic that he could relate to as being a super hero because he loved superman as a child. He gave credible evidence of what hero means and used his hands a whole lot.
I agree that hero's comes in all shapes and sizes from youths, teachers, parents and doctors. Anyone can be a hero, even you.
I would like to say that he did well giving his presentation, spoke clearly, he connected with his audience and he stayed on his topic. I suggest that you use hand a little less. It was kind of distracted, he did not practice his speech because he read off notes constantly.
great speech, man. wish i could use it for mine.....lol
Absolutely!
hey what u up to now?
Great speech, great moral!
That was really great. i honestly feel inspired.
this is brilliant
Amazing ... that was inspiring. Thanks
Great job!
Very well said. Excellent piece.
you started out rough but as you continued on, you got better and more confident. I love your speech and it's message. I'm using it for my paper in Speech Class.
This speech inspired me greatly =)
you REALY rock man,
this is a REALLY good speech!
Yeah, I didn't notice the banging until I saw the video. Turns out they put the mic in the metal podium. It annoyed me too.
But you're right it taught me to step away from the thing, and forced me to present more than just reading the sheets.
I loved it
i am in a speech class and this is helping
If i had three thumbs i would absolutely give you them.
Nice job man.............
Good speech!
