This really hit home. I’m a tap dancer and my instructor was also a Rockette. She’s been teaching me since I was 2, she’s 78 now and can still dance as if she were 18. Thank you for making this, Casey. May your Nana’s legacy live on forever👯♀️
So that's where Casey gets his drive from...You know I wasn't going to cry and then at the very end she comes onto stage at 92 with a big smile, the crowd is cheering and you can just feel the passion and joy radiating, beautiful. Your nana is an inspiring woman.
Casey, that movie you did of your Nana was incredibly touching....brought tears to my eyes. What an incredible woman! Thank you for sharing such a beautiful gift with us. My husband will be 92 in a week. He led a very similar life as Nana did....squeezed every drop out of life. Being married for 35 years has given me a ringside seat to an amazingly adventuresome life. People from this era are unlike most of us living today, but u know what? You're one of the few who live life to the fullest, bravo!!!!
Your Nana will always be an inspiration to all the people she touched in her life. She just touched mine. My mom is 90. Dad died of cancer. My brother had cancer. My uncled and at least 2 cousins I know of died of cancer. It is a horrible disease. Thank you so much for sharing your Nana with us. - Melody
fox fady I'm so sorry sweetie you lost your dad of cancer. I lost my dad of cancer, 2 cousins, my grandmother, my brother & uncle had cancer too. It's a HORRIBLE disease. I hope you are OK. Your dad will always be with you one way or the other. Hugs Melody
I'm 15 years old and I have been tap dancing for almost 10 years, this video is so inspiring and amazing to me not just by her dancing but how much she has donated to cancer research. My tap teacher has had cancer come back 3 times, and every time she was able to make another recital. God bless your Nana
She's one of the lucky few to have found her passion and experience it to the fullest extent. May her beautiful soul be tapping this very moment in the clouds above us. What an inspiration.
It's an incredible gift to have videos or pictures of your grandparents. They tend to pass away or deteriorate sooner than you think and your brain tends to forget too quickly what they were like when they were still well.
The video about Casey finally reaching his running goal brought me back to this video. Apparently I've liked it before, been watching for near a decade. Aren't we all getting old Casey but thank you for the years of quality entertainment.
You’ve done some amazing movies....brilliant is not a big enough word. But this one...this one despite the slightly lower views is your Academy Award winner. It’s your opus as far as I’m concerned. I think all TH-camrs should make a film about our Nana’s and grandfathers so the world never forgets the grit, the perseverance this generation had. Thank you for the inspiration.
This video made me cry crocodile tears. My dad passed from cancer just before my high school graduation. That feeling sucks. I'm so glad she turned it around. I admire her very much. I hope she taps for many more years.
I just wanted to give you a head's up; crocodile tears are "a fake or insincere display of emotion", I don't believe that was the message you were meaning send, so I hope it's okay that I told you :)
This is one of my favorite videos from your extensive works. It captures a truly remarkable soul in your Nana. I'm sad to have read of her passing a few years back and am happy your talents memorialized her to countless people who now know the far reaching impact of her kindness. What an amazing person. Js
This was short, sweet and beautiful. I came here after reading Casey's bio on Wikipedia. His grandmother was certainly an amazing woman. You can tell by watching how much love and adoration Casey had for her. This was absolutely lovely.
your Nana is wonderful and so hard working. must be where you get it from:) She reminds me a lot of my grandmother who was one of my biggest inspirations. Her husband died when my dad was in high school and she became the first female car dealership owner in the US. As soon as my dad took over she donated all of her time and raised money to build a real hospital in her, then small, town. she'd say things like "pull yourself up by your bootstraps", when my twin died she was 92 and said "we will get through this. we will." She got sick from simple old age, organ failure. but didn't look sick. she told me "Honey I' think I'm dying haha!!" and she got dressed for bed, put her 1930's wedding ring on, and drifted off with us there like any other day. but I miss talking to her. Miss all the wisdom I didn't appreciate as a kid.Time & health are the most valuable things we have.
This made my day! I'm in my 60's and always have wanted to learn to tap dance - that's how I came upon this video. I love tap. Look!!! at your nana, still dancing! I'm so jealous! Thank you for sharing this heart warming tribute to your nana, her dancing and her good work in helping to fight cancer.
Came to watch this after watching your torn jeans and hypnotic skateboarding vlog post and now I'm having a little cry. Your Nana really was amazing! #GetBusyLiving
This was so uplifting, wonderful, sensational...just to watch your Nana driving at 92... The tap dancing was not only inspirational, she is game changer in this thing called LIFE... love your Nana
The most outrageously wonderful heart felt lovingly amazing short film I have seen in a long time. How wonderful was that. How wonderful was she. Louise, don't know ya. Never knew ya, but just love ya to bits. Thank you , just a million thank you's.
I have to honestly say that this is my favorite movie from you Casey.Very emotional and inspirational. Love your work! Just became a sub to your channel a few days ago and I'm hooked!! Congrats on Beme and hope all the best for you and yours!!
Oct 2021 ~ Well, well - it's apparent now where Casey got so much of his drive, being an historian, hustle & showmanship ... 😍 ! So clear what a massive impact Casey's Grandmother (Louise Neistat) had on him his entire life ... 💕
Thanks for this great story about this wonderful person, your Nana. People like her show us how to live life. You, following her lead, have used your talent to enrich us all. Thanks.
Really touching Casey, thanks for linking it at the end of your 4mil vid. Congratulations on having a wonderful Nana and on your own successes. Here's to tomorrow!
This is the most beautiful movie I have ever seen, what a tribute. Your grandmother is extremely talented, beautiful and big hearted, she must be very proud of you!
Wow what an amazing woman she truly was. Casey you were truly blessed to have her in your life. You will always have such great and wonderful sweet memories of your hero your precious Nana. 😊💓💓🙏🙏🙏
I googled Louise Neistat and the first result was her obituary. Casey, I'm so sorry for your loss. Your Nana was a magnificent woman with a heart full of love. And by the looks of it, she lived a joyous life and was able to touch so many people. Thank you for sharing your Nana with us! ❤️
To me this is the best movie you have done, it brought joy and tears , you're a very fortunate person to have had such a beautiful person in your life.
Cried. My mom is only 55 but she has had cancer since I was born 30 years ago. She never let it hold her back. She went on to become a CEO, marathon runner, mother of two, just an all around wonderful person... All while undergoing countless chemos and surgeries. She's truly an inspiration. I can't remember a single time I have ever heard her express any negative words, she's always happy, she never talks about her cancer, which doctors said would kill her in 6months when she was first diagnosed. I live in Hawaii and she's in Texas, I miss her everyday. My grandmother was a dance teacher with her own studio for 45 years. This video reminds me of both of those beautiful women in my life.
Any long time subs who haven't seen this one yet?!

I haven't seen it yet I came from caseys 4million video

gominuke No sabia que estuvieras aqui :D, rememorando todas las pelis increíbles que hace Casey!
“what just happened” brought me here, what an amazing woman. And now with the magic of movies, she will never be forgotten!
This really hit home. I’m a tap dancer and my instructor was also a Rockette. She’s been teaching me since I was 2, she’s 78 now and can still dance as if she were 18. Thank you for making this, Casey. May your Nana’s legacy live on forever👯♀️
That's awesome:)
I would be happy if I will be able to move like that at 70 or 80, let alone freaking 92.
Mhm
Same
My grandma's 98, and she's going around and climbing ladders to hide money and doing house chores. I'm simply amazed by her and Casey's Nana.
Yeah word it's crazy
Now I have 2 new heros... your Grandma and Casey's Nana.
aaaand i'm crying
Marcello?
Me too.
Rest in peace nanny Neistat, I hope you're dancing away in the clouds right now!
when did she die?
www.theday.com/article/20111122/NWS11/111129907
***** Omg, she died less than a month after this was uploaded! How sad...rest in peace, Nana Neistat.
So that's where Casey gets his drive from...You know I wasn't going to cry and then at the very end she comes onto stage at 92 with a big smile, the crowd is cheering and you can just feel the passion and joy radiating, beautiful. Your nana is an inspiring woman.
One Month Later Exactly, Louise Neistat passed away. My condolences.
not exactly
Googled her - So sad, looks like a great woman and character! :(
Wow cant believe that...she looks so healthy here, what a great woman she was
man she went out on top of the world!
Freaking bawled when she came on stage, her legs are amazing, amazing spirit, a true teacher...What a champion for her whole life!
Me. too. Still crying.
Casey, that movie you did of your Nana was incredibly touching....brought tears to my eyes. What an incredible woman! Thank you for sharing such a beautiful gift with us.

I know 40 year olds who can't move like that.
This video is 3 years old ... I hope Nana is still kickin' it.
Great film. Touches my heart.
Sadly, I read that she passed within a few weeks of this video being made.
Sadly, she passed away 22 days after this video was released.
Made me cry..so inspiring may nana rest in peace

The video about Casey finally reaching his running goal brought me back to this video. Apparently I've liked it before, been watching for near a decade. Aren't we all getting old Casey but thank you for the years of quality entertainment.
Wow! By far, my favorite movie by Casey Neistat. Amazing lady.
I'm addicted to this channel, can't figure out why??? Well I know why but I love all your vids and can't figure exactly why?
Same here, lol. I keep watching the same videos 24/7
Cause they're amazing !
***** motivational to watch, always have a spike in productivity after watching :P
Respect to your nana for everything she did for inspiring many donations to people with cancer so rest in peace nana
You’ve done some amazing movies....brilliant is not a big enough word. But this one...this one despite the slightly lower views is your Academy Award winner. It’s your opus as far as I’m concerned. I think all TH-camrs should make a film about our Nana’s and grandfathers so the world never forgets the grit, the perseverance this generation had. Thank you for the inspiration.

Kind of crying. Never had a nana.

This video made me cry crocodile tears. My dad passed from cancer just before my high school graduation. That feeling sucks. I'm so glad she turned it around. I admire her very much. I hope she taps for many more years.
+Catherine Leimberg (CatherineLaughsalot) She died November 22, 2011. Not even a month after this video was uploaded.....damn...
I realized that later on. So sad. I'm watching all of Casey's videos in order right now. and then I'm going to watch all the Casey Classics too.
Catherine Leimberg I'm doing the same. Sorted by oldest-newest
+Chris Doyle of course!
I just wanted to give you a head's up; crocodile tears are "a fake or insincere display of emotion", I don't believe that was the message you were meaning send, so I hope it's okay that I told you :)
300k views is not enough for such a video! Very beautiful
It'll get a lot more , he just mentioned it in his vlog , I didn't know the movie was there till then
This is one of my favorite videos from your extensive works. It captures a truly remarkable soul in your Nana. I'm sad to have read of her passing a few years back and am happy your talents memorialized her to countless people who now know the far reaching impact of her kindness.
What an amazing person.

This actually made me very happy. Good job Casey!
Lemme take that down a notch; She died a month after this video.
Falso information
This was short, sweet and beautiful. I came here after reading Casey's bio on Wikipedia. His grandmother was certainly an amazing woman. You can tell by watching how much love and adoration Casey had for her. This was absolutely lovely.
Who the hell would dislike this!?!? This is raw inspirational gold!
I loved it...talent clearly runs in the family ;)

First time seeing this, from his latest vid, giving me goosebumps (the good ones)🥺
This is so sad, because she died only one month after this video :(
Yes. You can look it up.
Not so sad, she did what she loved and did it far longer than most. It was a life well lived.
Wouw I came here from the 4 million video and this video made me sooooo emotional!!
I just watched it again. Better than the first time. Outstanding story and excellent movie.

Wow. Go Nana. I now see where you get your work ethic from Casey.
92 years old with that much energy? Wow im impressed
For a 92 year old she can really move
How could 73 people possibly dislike this? Casey, your nana is the sweetest, and reminds me of my grandmothers.
Just watched it today after his 2020 video. Such a great tribute to his grandmother. Loved it.

Who's here from the 2020 video? and I'M NOT CRYING, YOU'RE CRYING *wipes tears*
Fuck its so annoying when people say the "who is here from blah blah" just watch and appreciate the god damn video.
Love her, love how you remember her, love how you make me see her. Thanks. yes, I cried. again
Cried. My mom is only 55 but she has had cancer since I was born 30 years ago. She never let it hold her back. She went on to become a CEO, marathon runner, mother of two, just an all around wonderful person... All while undergoing countless chemos and surgeries. She's truly an inspiration. I can't remember a single time I have ever heard her express any negative words, she's always happy, she never talks about her cancer, which doctors said would kill her in 6months when she was first diagnosed. I live in Hawaii and she's in Texas, I miss her everyday. My grandmother was a dance teacher with her own studio for 45 years. This video reminds me of both of those beautiful women in my life.
I would like to know if she saw that video or he did it as a memorial "hommage" ?
who's here from the latest video
