5:58 - I love that you showed that even though a normally simple task such as tying ones shoes is difficult for him, a different task that would normally be considered complex such as solving a rubix cube, is rather easy. A perfect display of how different minds work better at different tasks.
Tying shoes is one of those things that our brain just never bothers to remember Had my grandpa sit me down one day and show and teach me how, never forgot after that day.
I was diagnosed with Autism at the age of 5, even though I do not have trouble tying my shoes, this short film spoke to me because it perfectly showed how hard simple things like that can be, thank u so much for this
I really felt pain for him when he was struggling to do the "bunny ears" stage of tying laces. For me it was like "so where do I find the ears that other people magically produce every time?!" I just wanted to give him a hug and a smile. Thank you. Blessings and peace to him and all who struggle. We all do at times and no one should feel bad about it.
@@zeotee1384 Exactly! Doing the "pulling the bunny out of a hat" trick is a lot easier to do than "finding the bunny's ears" trick haha. I was beginning to think my bunny did not have any ears haha
It took me 12 years to tie shoes and when I learned, I just started wearing slip ons again because it was too hard to keep doing the laces. Just a kid with asperger's here.
I was able to learn young, because my mother was who she was: also, in 1965 no one knew squat diddly of Autism and Aspergers. I prefer slip ons, because tying shoes is a pain. Dr. Temple Grandin's mom didn't give up; mine was more like a Prrussian Drill Sargeant, and while insisting and pushing have their merits, my mother, God rest her soul, just figured she knew best, end of discussion on pretty much anything and everything!
I was maybe 14 when i learned the proper way to tie my shoes, i had undiagnosed ASD and my mother would get so upset that I couldn’t do it she gave up and i learned a way around it
I have autism but i learned in 2nd grade, so it took me a bit longer than neurotypical kids but i couldn't walk properly. I would drag my feet and destroy shoes. I can walk fine now
I have such a similar experience, even my gym Teachers got mad at me, they'd ask why my shoes weren't tied, and I told them I didn't know how to do it they'd give me a dirty look and just send me back to class.
My friend. This is filmmaking Taking a simple concept and turning into something full of art, passion and most importantly human. I can see that your focus in filmmaking is human stories with visual storytelling which many filmmakers examples being Steven Spielberg, Denis Villeneuve and Damien Chazelle are known for. You a youtube with less than 1K subscribers have become one of my favorite channels, not just because of your art you put to humanity, but because of your heart you put to artistry.
Wow, that's high praise, indeed! Thank you so much for your support! I love you guys and all of the appreciation you guys show me for my passion and my work :)
This makes me want to cry tears of joy I mean the kindness. Growing up I had no idea how to tie the shoelace no matter how many times someone showed me. These days I don't tie them very neatly I just do it's the way I'm comfortable with. Yeah watching this makes me grateful that I'm high functioning on the spectrum . I just really hope we can all have a future good luck my fellow mates watching this.
Thank you for sharing! I'm actually a very high-functioning Asperger's guy myself and it took me longer than usual to figure out how to tie my shoes, but I was at least able to figure it out before I made it into middle school, whereas my younger brother, who obviously didn't have the motor skills that I had, didn't figure out how to tie his shoes until he was in middle school. So I completely relate to you and hope to keep on spreading love, understanding, kindness and support to everyone out there :)
This was so relatable for me. I too suffer from Autism, and, just like Luke, have trouble tying my shoes. However, I'm very skilled in things others consider very hard, such as saying the alphabet backwards in under 10 seconds. And when I try something difficult for too long, I also get angry. Good job, movie makers!
I also have autism but a different representation so my difficulty is mainly social and wow that’s amazing that you can say the alphabet backwards even more amazing that you can do it in 10 seconds
Wow, thank you! I never realized how many of my subscribers were on the spectrum! I guess I shouldn't be surprised since it's very common for artistic individuals to possess some form of a learning disability. I myself have Aspergers so go figure lol
I was so excited when he figured it out! To me it looked like the shoe instructions might have not been broken down enough. I would have done it more like this, to see if it would work. It might not though, this is how I learn not how every Autistic kid does/ Step one Make laces pull apart and facing opposite sides Step two grab both in separate hands, each lace being held by thumb and pointer finger Step three Make and X with shoelaces and hold with thumb and index finger Step four Put third and fourth finger under the thumb and index finger Step five Put the lace that is underneath the first lace under your thumb Step six Pull the lace away from you Step seven Once they are crossed pull the two strings on top until the lace's crossed part lays on the shoe Step eight Grab one of your laces and put them between thumb and index finger Step nine With your other hand grab the long end of the lace with thumb and index finger Step ten With the hand holding the long end swing it GENTELY to the base of the lace you are holding Step eleven Grab the base of the lace and the lace in your thumb and index finger, you have a bunny ear now Step twelve Grab the loose lace with your other hand and pull it over and around your thumb that is holding the bunny ear
Step thirteen Grab the lace you wrapped around your thumb with index finger holding the bunny ear. It should circle the bunny ear base with a bit of space created by thumb Step fourteen With the index finger push the lace that isn't the bunny ear into the circle Step fifteen Grab both bunny ears you made and pull until tight and I would have pictures' for every step. I know for me until I know the task by heart, I need each bit broken down into every small steps and the list at hand at all times.
I am also autistic and while i don't struggle much with metaphors, similes, and the like, I get the struggle. Others find stuff so easy that I can't do. It's difficult to live like this.
I have Cerebral palsy and I learned the proper way to tie shoes last year. And I am in my middle 30s so don't feel bad because it took me a long time to learn.
I think this was a perfect representation of how things that seem so easy a normal to other people can be so hard and how the smallest of achievements are still achievements
As a fellow Aspie, I can totally relate to that. Until today I have to concentrate to tie my shoes. I can't tie the shoes of others, and that at 55 years of age.
About your disclaimer: I can be such a nitpicker at times that I must remind myself nobody's perfect. I didn't notice anything wrong, rather, everything for me is spot on in your film. I received my diagnosis late in life. I am an Aspie. I got through life thanks to my mother: she was tough and took no prisoners, rather like a drill sargeant. I have next to no math ability. My strengths are language (bilingual, and I read a third language) and music: classical piano and organ; voice too, although I have stopped singing as I am no longer young. By the way, tying shoelaces is overrated. I go with slip ons, because I have "I-trouble:" I can't see myself caring to bother with laces! They always come undone, even with double knots. Your brother has you and your family in his corner: love is powerful, and believe me, it makes all the difference! Thank you a thousand times for this inspiring film, and I hope you, Lucas and your family will have best success and joy in all that you do.
I can relate with this person. As someone with highly suspected autism, wearing socks is a difficult thing for me. I just can't get into the habit of it since I've gone so long without doing it. I also couldn't tie my shoes until 3rd grade. My uncle said I was exposed to tie my own shoes by 1st.
i cried over this. simple tasks are so difficult for me. also,, i loved it because he likes spiderman and spiderman is one of my many special interests
I have autism and there was a point when i was in elementary where i thought id never be able to tie shoes. I would watch 192938 videos on how to do it and STILL wouldnt get it. I eventually learnt it by 4rd or 4th grade. I announced it to my mom and she didnt see the achievement. She doesnt know im autistic. Im trying hard to find someone to diagnose me now at 13 turning 14. Its very hard where i live unless ur so severe u need special school, nobody doesnt notice
I was only diagnosed with autism recently - I'm almost 16 now and I still can't tie my shoes or tell time on an anologue clock. People have tried teaching me but nothing ever works. When it gets brought up at school (which luckily is rarely), people laugh at me and some people have told me that I can't spend forever relying on other people just because I can't do these 2 things. I get called stupid at school and I hate it but I've kind of given up trying since everyone who tries to help just gets mad and I get frustrated. I just avoid shoelaces or get fake ones and keep my phone with me to tell time, I'm not relying on others I just do things my own way.
Not tryna be rude, but aspergers is the same as autism, the term „asperger’s syndrome” is no longer valid, because autism is a spectrum and everyone experienced it differently Also, ADD is the same as ADHD but without the hyperactivity; it means that people with ADD mostly struggle with focusing on certain things than hyperactivity So, instead, you could just say: I’m autistic and i have ADHD/ADD I’m not trying to be rude, just clearing things up :]
I'm so glad you show this struggle. I'm on the spectrum and had difficulty doing small tasks like this. I felt stupid, because it was SO easy for everyone else to learn.
I'm so glad that you were able to connect with this passion project of mine :) I've been living with my brother since birth so this short film was just a snippet of what our every day life is like. For me, it'd be pretty hard NOT to nail autism lol But I'm really glad you liked it. I was stressing big time while shooting it.
It didn’t took me this long as him to know how to tie my shoelaces, but it did took me a while. I was the last person in my class to learn how to tie it. In total it took me 2/3 years.
I'm 13 and still can't the shoes the "correct" way so my autistic self made a new easy way to tie shoes, like a knot but when you pull the strings the whole laces come untied and it's easier to do.
Omg I used to struggles sm with tying my shoes and I was always so scared that someone would find out😭😭😭 the older I would get the more embarassed I would feel about it so I put off wearing shoes with laces for as long as possible cause I was too scared to admit I didnt know how to tie laces TvT I was only diagnosed with autism about half a year ago and I only found out that this is common for autistic people rn, and it made me feel really relieved to know that I'm not the only one who's struggled with this
This is sooo relatable! I’m 16 and I still can’t tie my shoe laces, now or days when I wear shoes (usually for school) I just tie them how I tie things and that’s it..
All of it was found on my school's digital library when I was a student in college. The tracks are named in the description so you might be able to find them somewhere else online if you search for it.
No one judge me but I’m autistic and 20 years old but to this day shoe tying I’m not what I’m an expert at I struggle to make sure the laces won’t come undone so I double tye them but what sucks to anyone else is I do them so knotted it’s hard to undo them all over again but that’s the only way I can do my shoes either way doing my shoes definitely frustrates me but I know I’ll get better at it one day if I keep trying over and over again until it’s perfect
Geez I have such terrible memories with tying shoes, my mom always tied then or occasionally friends. At school whenever the grumpy school maid noticed my shies were untied during recess she'd scream at me and stop whatever I'm playing forcing me to tie my shoes even tho I kept telling her I don't know how. So she just forces me to sit on a bench the whole break. My stepmom forcing me her way to learn locked my outside in the Very cold weather after watching one show tying video, for me to learn how to tie my shoes. She refused to let me in untill it was done after forever of failed or attempts that were good but not up to her par she finally let me in angerly. It's like clearly in trying the best way is to politely show someone and maybe have a few minutes each day politely showing them and if they can't get it that's okay. I can tie my shoes now but apperantly to my stepmom and dad they are still being tied wrong but at least they work😸 But long story short don't just assume someone can do something just because you can do that thing. Especially if someone's neurodivergent certain things can be difficult or impossible for them to do
i had problems with tieing on my shoes when o was younger i always asked my mom to help me tie my shoes before school and i was 14 and a half i know how to tie my shoes
I don't know why but I think I may also not know how to tie my laces because every single time I wear lace up shoes, I always walk around with my laces flopping everywhere and whenever I do try, they always untie almost immediately, so I do without. I might have 'learnt' to tie my laces when I learnt to tell time, 12. (Spiderman!!!!!!!!!)
I think all explainations should be simplified enough for being understandable for neurodivergent people, and I tried to do that in next one: Well, for making that action more understandable I need to notice that you just repeating one move 2 times, I think this fact can help to understand this action So, explaination: 1) At the first stage you cross laces and insert one into the formed loop 2) And thighten them 2) During third one you need to bend them in half 3) Repeat cross-inserting move again 4) So, it's done, you just need to tighten them for making knot more strong I hope it will help you do that, you can reply to me if something will went wrong
Or he could just wear slip-ons or velcro shoes, be confident and have one less thing to worry about. Why add more limitations to an already handicapped man?
And it would also be great if we could normalise normal behaviour in every part and aspect of life, everyone is good at one thing and might be bad at something else, it's called inclusion. Why do you want to alienate somebody, simply because of their ability to tie their shoes or not? It would be so much nicer if people could just help people, even when it's just helping to tie somebodies shoes, wouldn't it? It's truly kindness, an open mind and an open heart that's missing in our society. Only the best wishes from another neurodiverse brain. :)
@@anticherries again, he's probably gonna be taken advantage of and bullied. I'm autistic and when I was with typical people, I was taken advantage of, bullied, and even molested when I was really young. So it's definately not a good idea to put a special ed person in a typical setting. It scarred me for life.
Always remember we must repent of our sins (sin is transgression The Law Of Yahuah The Father in Heaven. The Law are The Books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy). We must repent of our sins and Have Belief On Yahusha The Messiah. HE Died and Rose three days later so that we can be forgiven of our sins! Come to HIM🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

Exactly!
Tying shoes is one of those things that our brain just never bothers to remember

Hi how old are u now
I got diagnosed at age 5 of 2008
I was diagnosed at age 20 in 2018 but my preschool supposedly had records that stated I had autism when I was 3

Me too

To me it looked like the shoe instructions might have not been broken down enough. I would have done it more like this, to see if it would work. It might not though, this is how I learn not how every Autistic kid does/
Step one Make laces pull apart and facing opposite sides
Step two grab both in separate hands, each lace being held by thumb and pointer finger
Step three Make and X with shoelaces and hold with thumb and index finger
Step four Put third and fourth finger under the thumb and index finger
Step five Put the lace that is underneath the first lace under your thumb
Step six Pull the lace away from you
Step seven Once they are crossed pull the two strings on top until the lace's crossed part lays on the shoe
Step eight Grab one of your laces and put them between thumb and index finger
Step nine With your other hand grab the long end of the lace with thumb and index finger
Step ten With the hand holding the long end swing it GENTELY to the base of the lace you are holding
Step eleven Grab the base of the lace and the lace in your thumb and index finger, you have a bunny ear now
Step twelve Grab the loose lace with your other hand and pull it over and around your thumb that is holding the bunny ear

Analogue clocks are becoming pretty obsolete anyway, so that’s a win! I think the only thing they’re good for now is decoration.
This is incredibly underrated. You my good person, have made a great film.

I understand. Stay strong and don't forget that you are not alone and that you can do anything u desire in life! Have faith and believe in yourself. ❤

My stepmom forcing me her way to learn locked my outside in the Very cold weather after watching one show tying video, for me to learn how to tie my shoes. She refused to let me in untill it was done after forever of failed or attempts that were good but not up to her par she finally let me in angerly.
It's like clearly in trying the best way is to politely show someone and maybe have a few minutes each day politely showing them and if they can't get it that's okay.
I can tie my shoes now but apperantly to my stepmom and dad they are still being tied wrong but at least they work😸
But long story short don't just assume someone can do something just because you can do that thing.
Especially if someone's neurodivergent certain things can be difficult or impossible for them to do
Do you have a cameo in one of the pictures?
Not in any of the ones I uploaded.
I was diagnosed with Autism when I was born and I didn’t know how to tie my shoes until I learned to tie them when I was 9.
i had problems with tieing on my shoes when o was younger i always asked my mom to help me tie my shoes before school and i was 14 and a half i know how to tie my shoes
This was beautiful
Aww thank you!
to overcome this i made my own way to tie a knot, personally i think its better
My son 5 year old diagnosed with Autism.day by day im encourage him.please pray for my son get potential future❤❤
I don't know why but I think I may also not know how to tie my laces because every single time I wear lace up shoes, I always walk around with my laces flopping everywhere and whenever I do try, they always untie almost immediately, so I do without.
I might have 'learnt' to tie my laces when I learnt to tell time, 12.
(Spiderman!!!!!!!!!)
With autism.. Even the smallest challenges can feel like climbing a mountain..
Not to dark and morbid but my dad literally almost killed me cause I couldn’t tie my shoes fast enough. At age 5.
I’m so sorry that happened. Are you alright now?
The moral of the movie is:
Never give up.
Loved it ❤️
OMG RELATABLE!!
Bunny ears👌 bunny ears 😻 bunny ears 💜
I still struggle tieing my shoes
As an autistic person who can’t tie shoes I really appreciate this thank you
I was diagnosed as an adult and I learned how to tie my shoes at 10
I’m 10 years old and I still don’t know how to tie my shoes :(
That’s okay! We all learn at different speeds! Your doing great.
I never knew how to tie my shoe till I was 12
Lovely film but also that man sounded exactly like a car at first honestly could make a living off that
I'm 21 with Autism and still can't tie my own shoes 😭
I think all explainations should be simplified enough for being understandable for neurodivergent people, and I tried to do that in next one:
Well, for making that action more understandable I need to notice that you just repeating one move 2 times, I think this fact can help to understand this action
So, explaination:
1) At the first stage you cross laces and insert one into the formed loop
2) And thighten them
2) During third one you need to bend them in half
3) Repeat cross-inserting move again
4) So, it's done, you just need to tighten them for making knot more strong
I hope it will help you do that, you can reply to me if something will went wrong
i still cant tie my shoes :) its okay though, i have stringless ones!
wait... other autistic christians exist?
Or he could just wear slip-ons or velcro shoes, be confident and have one less thing to worry about. Why add more limitations to an already handicapped man?
Slipons for me!
Maybe his mother forces him
someone get this guy some velcro shoes. it isnt a necessary skill.
If he can’t even tie his shoes, he needs to be in a special ed school cuz he’s going to get taken advantage of.
Special ed “schools” are extremely expensive, even just the singular classrooms in public schools
And it would also be great if we could normalise normal behaviour in every part and aspect of life, everyone is good at one thing and might be bad at something else, it's called inclusion. Why do you want to alienate somebody, simply because of their ability to tie their shoes or not?
It would be so much nicer if people could just help people, even when it's just helping to tie somebodies shoes, wouldn't it?
It's truly kindness, an open mind and an open heart that's missing in our society.
Only the best wishes from another neurodiverse brain. :)
@@Heehoo1114 Also if you have good grades you can’t

@@anticherries again, he's probably gonna be taken advantage of and bullied. I'm autistic and when I was with typical people, I was taken advantage of, bullied, and even molested when I was really young. So it's definately not a good idea to put a special ed person in a typical setting. It scarred me for life.
Always remember we must repent of our sins (sin is transgression The Law Of Yahuah The Father in Heaven. The Law are The Books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy). We must repent of our sins and Have Belief On Yahusha The Messiah. HE Died and Rose three days later so that we can be forgiven of our sins!
Come to HIM🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
