The next time anyone says 'Man i'm having a crap day!!!' or "Boy my life sucks!!" needs to watch this !!!!
word
You said it.
I knew he was a legendary guitar player but, had no idea he was still alive and fighting this disease. It breaks my heart to see him like this but then at the same time, it gives me so much strength seeing him survive all this and still going. Inspirational man!
who is the music deaf, heartless bastard who disliked this vid? what an inspiration and brave person Jason is.
what a legend , never give up doing what you like ..ever no matter what
Just think: Besides not being able to move, he also can never eat or drink again for the rest of his life because he can't swallow. If he drinks or eats he could choke to death, he also can't breathe through his nose so he can never smell. His food gets pumped into his stomach through a tube in his side and his air gets pumped into his lungs through his throat. My cousin died of this. He was diagnosed and died in the span of 2 years, it was absolutely the worst nightmare you could possibly imagine. You basically turn into a brain with eyes.
He's my hero

This brought a tear to my eye. I have to see this documentary. Jason Becker is one of my guitar heroes along with Jimi Hendrix and John Petrucci. It's crazy that life can take such a turn and strip everything away from you in an instant.
Jason, you have always been my inspiration,I started playing guitar and music when I was just 9 yrs old. Some many years back, now I'm 40 and ever time I start getting frustrated with things or a new song or even life, I think about you and it gives me more strength to forge ahead. I can't speak for everyone,but you are an inspiration to me..... :-))
Jason is such a strong person...everybody's weeping except himself. He has never lost his will to live and humor. Great great man...and musician!
Jason, you're the man. Hopefully will heal and we believe it. Jason we love you, and you are my inspiration ...
Jason, you're the man. Hopefully will heal and we believe it. Jason we love you, we still here.
greetings from turkey
My God......My heart just aches when I Look at him. I know and seen him play when he was young. He reminded me of Paul Gilbert sooooooo much. I wish you the very best Jason.....always. May Jesus always be by your side....
What an amazing guy
This man should be an example to all of us who struggle with life.
I literally have tears in my eyes
i agree i have been playing for 30 yrs now and have always said that jason was the one guitar player that would have taken the world by storm i will always love him and what he has done may you never be forgoten jason
I didnt know what he was suffering through till right now.
I got to know about his condition and found this video. I'm in tears right now.
Get well soon Jason.. :'(
Thank you for this wonderful feature on such a beautiful human being who can still manage a sense of humor and make us all smile. I hold back tears. Life is so unfair.. Jason Rocks!
Jason Becker, even when he was first starting out, was already better than 99% of the guitar players on the planet, and he was still so young! I can't even imagine how good he would have been in 2012. He'd probably be so good now he'd just have to look at a guitar and it would just spontaneously combust right there on the spot!
The man is a figher, and his Collection album was fantastic!
This is Love , just love . When life does that , and he decides to keep going .
Jason , you are the proof of how we don’t have to give up of our dreams and what we really love . I don’t have words enough to say all I wish , but I just gotta say... When your life gets over , when this stops you like the rest of us ... You’re going to live with freedom and find out the reason you got stopped . And I’m sure this happened to u because u were prepared to inspiring through something like that . But your life will live forever . Guess u already found the answer inside u . Thank u . I’m a guitarist , musician btw, and you made me emocional and happy by discovering you story today .
His smile makes me happy
I make sure all my students know who jason is and his music.. just to show them not only the beauty in it but also to not take things for granted. can't wait to see the movie
Jason, my prayer's are with you, what a sad thing ALS is a horrible fate. But you are amazing and your music will live in our heart's forever and so will you...
Jason Becker
Musical Genius- Inspiration to All
Truer words could not have been said.
TO ALL VIEWERS PAST AND PRESENT - Thanks for watching and taking time to comment on the video. It was truly an honor to meet him and to be invited into his home with BAM Magazine.com for this interview. ALS is horrible. let's not forget the absolute mental devastation endured over Jason's years as his illness progressed and how hard it must be to live in a totally paralyzed body, but your mind is unaffected. Please be grateful for something as simple as using your mouse to scroll, Jason cant
May God bless you sir
Best guitarist ever! Amazing composer!
This is great! This really brought some feelings.
Jason Becker is great inspiration! Even if i would never be able to be as good and fast,
he would always be the reason why i started practicing guitar :)
Couple things on his translator: She has been doing it for years and knows his thought patterns well. However, she does guess a lot trying to finish words and sentences for him because is a tedious and time consuming process to converse at length with Jason. I cut out a lot of Jason spelling his words and cut in the audio of his translator quicker than normal to keep the viewers attention. Jason's skills and ability to adapt his communication is totally amazing but also very heart braking!
your such an inspiration to everyone!!
Made me smile all the way through, so inspirational to me... helps me always put life in perspective
Jason Becker is the living proof that everything on this world if you want and work every dream came thrue In the momments of depression and other bad feelings about everything we must to watch this video again and again because he is the fighter His life is hard but happines is still in him through the end .Thank you Jason for everything you inspired me and show me how the life and world can be beautiful .First time when i saw and read your story i cried but now i practicing and work all day
what a awsome person he still is i loved the movie i watched it 3 times since it released
You inspire me Jason Becker, your talent and musicianship will always be remembered, but your spirit and dignity is something , I hope we all will think of you and your story. God bless you!
I am honestly beyond words....... SO INSPIRATIONAL.
Fuck how much this humble guy missed out on. Being at the doorstep of ruling the guitarworld and having it all taken away. I know a few other examples of similar situations. Being unaware of Jasons case I found myself crying at times during the movie. A beautiful family and this totally ads up to my opinion that life in the world we live in at 2013 has a lot more to offer than ranting on internet and working to make money to consume. Jason your whole life is the inspiration. Big hug ;)
I love the Jason Becker music
This is terribly moving. Jason you 're just pure love. That is all I can say. I love you
And a big thank you for posting this video..
warm regards from a fan..from India
Wonderful video. I love you, Jason.
that man is such an inspiration! so much respect for him.
the greatest guitarist to ever live.
I got to meet him a few times back in the day and see cacophony with about 20 people in the crowd.... it's was pretty amazing...
Jason is still the man. Wicked sense of humour too despite such a world shattering condition. If I was granted one wish in life, it would be for Jason to get better.
dios todo poderoso ayuda a jason becker a levantarse de esa silla ese es mi gran sueño escuchar su guitarra nuevamente te lo pido dios
Jason Becker.. I first listened to his music in '89.. Such a gifted musician, No doubt he would have taken the world by storm. He already shook it =-)
Jason Becker is a wonderful role model, he reminds us that we must continue to face adversity and overcome the odds. The man is incredible.
hope this movie comes up to CANADA ! you are AMAZING jAsoN !!! love you bro !
Wow! This is awesome!
im lost for words
when i went to see this docu... everyone cried it was kind of touching
Hello,
I'm a french writer and I discovered Jason Becker in 2009. I discovered ALS at the same time and then I planed to write about him and this awful desease. Then something totaly weird happened. In 2011, my mum got the first symptoms of this ALS and I knew from the very beginning how it was and what she will have to endure... She passed away last january and now, more than ever I want to talk about this desease. And as you said, tell the people to enjoy every single they can do...
Que gran persona y músico...mis respetos a Jason Becker...
What a great person and musician...all my respects to Jason Becker...you're now my hero!
Jason Becker - You're awesome man, truly awesome.
lovely family
this is amazing.
Very moving story.
As badly as he was robbed he's still upbeat and funny, very special person.
What an inspiration!
onw of my absolute biggest influences in playing, Serrana is such a wonderfull arrangement, full six string swept stacked maj triad arpeggios, maj 3rd intervals bouncing about the mid section
touched beyond belief
i almost cried :((
If I wish for a miracle, just fer one godamn miracle...please bring Jason back on his feet again and shred like he used to. Amen \m/
Jason Becker is amazing and his dad is a fucking hero
tears, tears tears
It's called "Primal", it's the first track of the album "Perspective"
Nice! I'll have to check that out. I hope he finishes a second Disincarnate CD, that would be awesome
I cant wait to see this film. Jason is a god among men
jason is a genius, can't wait to see the film
muy conmovedor, es imposible evitar q no se t hago un nudo en la garganta ver las imagines tan impactante, es casi surrealista verlo postrado en una cama con un respirador artificial, pero alentador a ver su ganas de vivir y de seguir haciendo buena musica!!
Dude, seriously! AND James Murphy... AND Randy Rhodes... AND Cliff Burton... jeez, being a guitarist is a dangerous gig! Oh well I ain't stopping, ever. But they need to cure ALS already this is bullshit. Jason is an amazing person for staying so positive during this, he deserves to be cured!!!
what are the chances the greatest player alive would get this disease? And yes, he was the greatest alive before he got the disease, and just imagine how good he would be by now if he wasn't inflicted. but at least he's still making music!
"Primal" from the Perspective album. Amazing album
i could not stop weeping tears watching this. Fucking ALS....
Hi guys, can anyone tell me what is the song starting from 1:55 to 2:22 in this trailer?
What a doll.... !
I am in love
The cool thing about the interpreter is it is a long-time friend of Jason's. When she said "My Cock" while we were doing the interview, my heart stopped...until she started laughing. Jason has a truly amazing sense of humor and isn't shy at all to share it. Thanks soooooo much for watching the video.
question : Marshall JCM 900 50W model ?? or 100W model??
no tengo palabraas solo puedo decir que es Gigante.. quiero veer ..
Hi there !Jason is definitively an EXTRAORDINARY musician !
Is someone can tell me the name of the song (and album) startin' at 00'28'' ?
It's like when a download reaches 99% then fails then you have to start again, but infinitely more frustrating.
What's the tune at 0:28 ?
I really hate to see a young talented guitarist succumbs to a disease slowly eating away his life and his music.... dude you are now my new guitar legends ill be listening to ur music from here on end... thanks bro
2:03,:( sob sob.......we love u jason,keep going
u are the lagend jason
James Murohy has his own channel!
Such a magnificent person. And.. it may sound gay, but he has great eyes. :D
why this to him..so sad.. people - please dont dislike this video..
:/ ...que merda de vida...qual é o proposito de acontecer isso com uma pessoa dessas??!!
eu não sei se eu aguentaria...JASON,GUERREIRO !!!
Resilient.
Why don't they get same communication machine to him that Steve Hawking does?
Writing in the March 2004 issue of the journal Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis & Other Motor Neuron Disorders, investigators at the California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco reported that the administration of THC both before and after the onset of ALS symptoms staved disease progression and prolonged survival in animals compared to untreated controls
best answer ever hahaha
how do you feel about that
How is he talking!? Serious qustion
Question *
He Can't Talk
Dude, that is sooooo fucking funny. He does have a prominent chin! Do you know him? He's a great dude.
@Diego La Torre I mean it's terrible what happened to him. No one deserves such a destiny.
minuto 2:07,llore
What's the songs at 1:50?
Primal
Primal, and the vocals are my steve perry (ex singer of journey)
have a habit of complaining about everything. Jason Backer serve as an example for us.
